I want an end to the patriarchal society we've found ourselves in (in NO little fault due to the Church, the Pope and all the Kings of England!!) and a return to the gentle, co-operative matriarchy.
Consumerism is patriarchal. War is patriarchal. Oppression of women is patriarchal. The Inquisition, the Holocaust; patriarchal.
and I want it NOW. *
what else ya got?
*blame Barbara G. Walker. I've slowly, quietly become radicalized b/c of her and her damn knitting books!!
