Atelier de grafica organizat de FIA pentru crearea de materiale destinate proiectului “papergirl” – partea a II a
10 June 2010“Papergirl” este o punere la feminin a conceptului-cliseu din SUA al “baiatului cu ziare”, doar ca fata cu ziare imparte de fapt productii artistice. Ale cui? Ale non-artistilor. Proiectul este “participativ, analog, non-comercial”. Fetei cu ziare nu ii pasa daca am facut liceul sau facultatea de arte. Fata cu ziare provoaca la libertate de expresie, [...]

various feminist intersections
30 April 2010some excellent and thought-provoking recent pieces via Bitch Magazine blogs:
“Feminist Intersection: On hipsters/hippies and Native culture”
Lately I’ve had my fair share of run-ins with the hipsters and hippies, as well as the hippie/hipster “culture” at large, and have become increasingly annoyed at their depiction/co-option of my ethnicity as a First Nations person. [...] I know [...]
when female nudity and sexist tropes do NOT coincide…
3 April 2010rarely does it become apparent that things are more complicated than “naked female body” = sexism, but it should be quite recognizable when you see it [text under "later edit"] just like it is obvious when it’s the common variety of misogynist imagery; it has to do with the way the gaze is engaged, with [...]
de-ale romanticizarii si exotizarii prea des intilnite
30 January 2010“Ce misto e viata de tigan” la un beso
[...] Si ma tot gandesc, ca intr-o tara in care “Inima de tigan” bate toate ratingurile, “tiganca imputita” e atat de acceptat….
Si ca tot scriam aici de minoritati, un articol interesant pe tema romi si vizunea romantic-idioata asupra lor (si nu numai) de g.m.tamas.

about not walking on eggshells
11 February 2009“Walking on eggshells”: an excellent, profoundly thought-provoking essay @ The F-Word
Where’s the liberation in walking on eggshells? Where’s the empowerment in feeling equal only to adolescent boys and women?
So what happens if I not only leave the realm of object, if I focus on men but I’m not deferential, submissive or flirtatious either? I have [...]
