      Real Talk
      In terms of study Material Charles Mills writes well in his 1997 text as does George Subira in 1996. In terms of the ink perhaps explore:
      Anatomy of female power: A Masculinist Dissection of Matriarchy (1990) Chinweizu
      The Forms of Power: From Domination to Transformation (1990) By Thomas E. Wartenberg.
      www.academia.edu/1099381/The_forms_of_power
      It ought to be remembered that "The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use them."
      This gem might also help correct distorted perceptions:
      Women on the Couch: An Analysis of Female Psychopathology (1987) Pacheco, Claudia
      Read "The Silent War"(1998) by Frank Furedi along with "The Racial Contract"(1997) by Charles Mills
      I also link in these two Frank Wilderson clips

      Alongside Tommy Curry he is altering the conversational landscape
      th-cam.com/video/3pkDA197J7g/w-d-xo.html
      There is also this longer essay on black nationalists x white radicals which it seems Wilderson better conceptualized much later:
      www.marxists.org/history/etol/newspape/isr/vol25/no01/vernon1.htm
      This 20 minite TH-cam video on Race and Communism explains lots

      In it Deadman Animations breaks down white antiracism, essentially applying The 8 white identities theory of Barnor Hesse.

      And of course learn from the amazing resource which is the COWS media archive.
      Maybe add George Subira Trower "Money Issues in Black Male Female Relationships" (1996) to the aforementioned list. It completes a disinherited trilogy

    I saw this and recognized immediately what a Colossus she was. I was floating on air after seeing this because I felt this huge weight lifted off me that I didn't know I was ever carrying because of feminism and my world became a bigger, more wondrous place after hearing her.

      Camille Paglia. It started me on a whole new way of thinking and question asking than I had ever known was allowed and possible. I'm not being smarmy or sarcastic. It was the birth of whatever form of intellect I have. It went beyond feminism or social issues to everything that exists. I can question anything. It was a major revelation for me and I thank God I happened to just switch on the TV on that channel at that moment. Where would I be then?

    Notice how, as Faludi begins losing the argument, she reverts to the “wounded little princess” persona, with the shy, wallflower little glances, the fluttering eyes toward Daddy-figure Phil Donahue, as if to say, “The other girl is being mean to me … please protect me.” And Donahue falls for it, responding with the protective male impulse, clearly trying to fortify a Faludi who clearly can’t stand on her own against Paglia.

      Very well put. Paglia is the feminism of the working class woman, the streets. Faludi is upper middle class, pampered, and expecting the world to take care of her. She calls Paglia embittered, although Paglia is funny, self-deprecating and sassy, while Faludi is a sour puss.

      I think people see what they want to see. i thought Camille sounded like she was a bit of a mess and all over the place. Anyone can see that and only someone who has seething partisan hate of "libs" would not notice that. I could not really understand all Camille was saying. Susan was classy and erudite. I think few people including us men know or understand little about what feminism is and yet we are knee-jerk reacting to it. with something akin to quiet vitriol. Regardless, I can say with certainty these feminists won the culture wars after all. Everything else we call backlash is really just resentment women didn't stay in "their place". Also, it is obvious how resentful Camille is towards other feminists she feels kicked out or berayed by other women in 1969. This "betrayal" may have influenced Camille's position against other feminists.

      That's because the country has changed and not enough in a good way. In my opinion, we've gone backward for both men and women. Americans are notorious for not knowing their history and it's to women's peril that they don't know enough of it. Paglia's been the darling of wronged, angry men and women who don't care enough or know enough about their history. The backlash just grew because ....well, who's had and still has MOST of the power. If you are able to be honest, you'd see that but men who adore Paglia don't want to see it. They love a good girl fight and this was one. Her characterizations of feminism is not one I, at 77, recognize at all. Nevertheless, she makes important points of girls and women needing to learn not to trust men. And my husband, who is a strong, smart, good human being thinks the same way on this issue.

      You obviously didn't read her book. Her point is that genius that pushes the envelop of innovation, is a very rare outlier and men tend to have a greater dispersion of intellect than women, so they populate both ends of spectrum( genius and idiot) far more than women. That is born out in every kind of IQ test, SATs, etc. it's not overall performance, it's statistical distribution. The great geniuses and great destroyers are practically all men, in every society, every race, all throughout history. The premise that women weren't "allowed" is telling in and of itself. Men have rebelled with their lives all throughout history, they never accepted being told no. Great male minds have risked being burned at the stake, not merely condemnation, and did it anyway. Geniuses such as Einstein, Shakespeare, DaVinci, etc weren't even formally educated ( at least the the time of some of their greats works), so it has nothing to do encouragement or opportunity, it's. gift

    People comment on Donahue's conversational style. It was always a hazard with Donahue. What is important about Donahue is that he would have a weekday afternoon network talk show with Paglia and Faludi on his show and have a serious conversation. Now we have Ellen He was amazing, and transformative for a generation, for his obvious faults. It is a shame his shows aren't available to stream. He was smart, canny, engaging, self-deprecating as well as self-important, funny, had amazing guests, and guests almost uniformly responded positively to him because for all his foibles he treats people with respect, no matter who they are, and comes from a place of genuine thoughtful curiosity and questioning.

    Hats off to CP for handling with eloquence and insight decades of harsh criticisms for her viewpoint, can’t say I agree with all or most of he views. But it is of tremendous importance to try to restore the appropriate intellectual perspective of detached discourse in American education. I have two kids in college and to me it seems that intellectual curiosity been crowded out of the university experience with core requirements, the marginalization of the Humanities, and an inordinate focus on fancy meal plans. The Humanities allow us to understand life, the human experience, at a deeper level. Muy importante.

    Too often did Donahue have to interject about how he believes in equality and this and that, typically after Paglia said something and rarely after Faludi said something, and to the point very little actual debate between the two guests was had and clearly not to offend the sensibilities of his audience too much who clearly fell by great majority into Faludi's political camp. He constantly does what my fellow Liberals do far too often, constantly remind everyone exactly how progressive they are in detail and that they don't mean to ruffle any tail feathers. It gets on my nerves!

      I am not a feminist, but I thought I would comment on this one. I think women would not need to actually physically build anything if they ran the world statement. It does not make any sense after all, since they are physically weaker. They would just be DIRECTING everything, and that’s the difference. They would, for example, decide what KIND of a building they would like, how the building should merge in the environment, etc…, and then other people (men or women) would make projects, and then men (or machines) would build it. Or, in case of a more spiritually-advanced culture (that could possibly arise as a result of a non-combative matriarchy), we could use things like levitation and other things to move and build things. That’s not possible today though, due to our spiritual degeneration.

      +gantmj no one is suggesting that rape is ok, or that the man isn't responsible. Ms Paglia wants women to be responsible for their own safety and recognize danger. You're not going to stop rape by telling rapists it's unacceptable, that's idiotic, they know that. The intention is help women prevent rape. Faludi's approach prevents nothing. Having everyone agree that no means no doesn't help someone who's been raped. If women truly understand the danger, they are more likely to make decisions that might help. It won't stop all rape, but it may prevent some, and that's a good thing.

      Nothing you said differs from my own point of view.
      I was saying that if you even suggest that a woman should be responsible for their body and their actions, and not expect to be able to do anything they want without ever seeing any negative consequences, that feminists will see it as sexist.

      The big surprise for me anyway is that Paglia is seen to be very openly pro-Hillary, here; a big surprise considering how adamantly she's been against her as long as I've been following her. My guess is that her view changed somewhere between the Lewinsky scandal and the Senate win in 2000.

    • @juliencastle2953

      @@jamestyler7697 That's exactly right. She was appalled by mainstream feminism's pass given to Bill Clinton's abuse of power that he had over his intern, Monica Lewinski. They should have sided with Lewinski instead of excoriating her, as Hillary Clinton herself did. Paglia by then was also dismayed by Hillary, as First Lady, attempting to get massive healthcare reform rolling in the early Clinton administration then Hillary projecting entitlement to a Presidential candidacy because of proximity and desire and not merit. I disagree with Paglia when in an interview with Andy Cohen and Frank Bruni "I would never vote for Hillary!" (I voted for her in the general election, and for Bernie Sanders in his successful Oregon primary) but it's easy to understand where Paglia is coming from.

  • @asielnorton345

    The difficulty of these discussions is that both women are right. Society has historically oppressed women and should be more open. People have to take responsibility for their own actions. There are legitimate differences between the sexes. But it’s also true that men have used the differences to exploit women.

    • @asielnorton345

      elrynx2 I’m not going to write a novel on human history in the comment section of TH-cam. But if that’s a real question you have, then my honest opinion is to check it out in some history books. Voting, land ownership, basic civil liberties, rights over their own children and bodies have consistently been denied women throughout history. But to give a common every day example of how men have used those differences to this day, I’d say rape is a fairly blatant example of using the differences in strength and body size as means of exploitation.

    What a difference a quarter-century makes. Faludi seems entirely reasonable, and argues her case eloquently, rationally, and with facts and statistics; completely and wholly different from how feminists have opperated ever since.
    Paglia, however, has the better end of the argument, and time has proven her views to be wholly correct.

So they will tolerate gay men who accept their feminism by checking their "male privilege" and who distance themselves from the arch enemy - STRAIGHT MEN. Check out "The Woman Identified Woman" by the RadicalLesbianCollective 1970.

      Dude, there never has been a stronger impetus driving an alliance between gay and hetero men than third wave feminism. Two things: the taboo of gay sex amongst hetero has declined massively (viz: "no homo" tongue in cheek gags, widespread embrace of gay social icons representing male interest) and second: The blitzkrieg on masculinity hasn't stopped at overt he-man behaviour but is a relentless push to invalidate any masculinity not defined by women. Straight & gay alike, that is a soul destroying (literally in many cases) attack on identity and no wonder so many gay men are antifeminist. Or as I like to call it "feminist". You don't call a person who doesn't believe in divinity an anti-theist.

    I didn't remember the Tyson v Washington case, but there's common slang used by women and men for an adult woman going to a man's hotel room late at night or early morning, and that's "booty call".
    It's not "a date".
    A date is when you meet for lunch or dinner and/or movie or a couple drinks, or even dinner inside his or her apartment. Three in the morning at a stranger's hotel room - in the absence of some clear and compelling exception or emergency - is widely understood to be driven by sexual hunger or "sexual emergency" as it has been called in verse.

    "Backlash" was one of the most brilliant feminist books of the so-called third wave. Brilliantly researched and she debunked so many myths. Her chapter on how the backlash extended to Hollywood films and tv shows was so insightful and very funny too. Not quite sure what happened to Faludi after that. Don't get me wrong. I do love Paglia too but more as a provocateur and a personality - in fairness, I haven't read much of her work.

    Also some of those hidden female inventors Faludi mentions (when she references the book Mothers of Invention) are debatable and dubious. For instance, there's no solid evidence except for one person's claim that Catherine Littlefield Greene provided a crucial idea to the development of the cotton gin. Even if she did, that would seem to make her more co-inventor than the sole inventor. And Lise Meitner didn't soley come up the the theory of nuclear fission on her own, she was part of a team of four people, and it's not like she was pushed to the side either, she was always given full credit for being one of the formulaters of the theory. Same for Rosalind Franklin, she wasn't marginalized, she simply died 4 years before the others involved in the discovery of the DNA structure won the nobel prizes, and the rules were that they could not award people who died, whether male or female. There was another woman who won the noble prize in physics right around the same time Franklin could have won for chemistry if she were still alive, so you can't say they discriminated against women or tried to keep them hidden. Anyway, whatever.
