The Tragedy of Heterosexuality (Jane Ward, 2020)

“The formation of modern heteromasculinity is marked by erotic competition among men for women’s bodies, public conquest of women’s bodies as a spectacle for other men, and the construction of sex itself as an act of men’s collective force or manipulation, women’s collective gift or sacrifice, and a cultural encounter in which men’s pleasure is the driving impulse, the inevitable focal point.

In other words, straight men have spent an inordinate amount of time exchanging erotic power and forging erotic bonds with one another but have struggled to interest themselves with women’s sexual pleasure and consent.

It is no wonder, then, that one source of queer alienation from straight culture is that heterosexuality often rings false; straight men do not actually like the very people they have claimed as their object of desire and affection.

Straight men do not need to be queered; they need to learn to like women. (…)

At the time of the nascent lesbian feminist movement, it was scarcely imaginable that straight men might themselves be capable of woman identification, and hence deep heterosexuality was largely unthinkable.

Heterosexuality relied not only on a gender dichotomy that positioned men and women as opposites types incapable of identification with each other but also on a subject/object erotic model in which desire could only be forged and sustained through degrees of difference, distance, and mystery.”

i've been feeling incredible anger and frustration lately with these posts lamenting what the next four years will look like in the u.s., how much "worse" things will get under the trump administration, as if we haven't been witnessing a holocaust for the past year funded by the biden administration. if you have seen a single video from gaza, a single picture, read a feature from a gazan journalist, spoken to a single person in your inbox when they plead for your attention and help, words like "worse" or "better" turn to ash in your mouth. just yesterday my friend hilda texted me that even when her family manages to get food, smoke from the fire needed to cook aggravates her sinus allergies, making it difficult to breathe. this is how she's been living for the past year and a month, under a democrat-funded genocide.

below is a small fraction of the palestinians who have reached out to me for help with their campaigns. it is a huge source of shame to me that i can't keep up with all of the people in my inbox. please go to their accounts and read their stories. and please give what you can spare.

We may not be able to convey the truth of the genocide in the days to come.

I hope everyone who sees this will share it as widely as possible.
