This Bears Repeating: Feminism Is Not The World!

This seems a bit apropos in the wake of the previous post.

All right. So what does it mean, to say that feminism is not the world?  At a minimum, it means that feminism and the world are not synonymous with each other. Otherwise you would say that wherever feminism ends, the world also ends . . . and that would be the end of it. And you could no sooner get outside of feminism, than you could get outside of the world.

So if we take "the world" to mean "everything there is", then we would understand that feminism is not everything there is. We would understand that there is more beyond feminism.

But to date, the feminist project has treated the space "beyond feminism" as precisely that -- space. A mere nullity waiting to be filled with feminism, or at best a mere chaos waiting to be organized in feminist terms.

Feminism, in short, regards non-feminism as nothing. But the non-feminist revolution proposes that non-feminism must become something -- a positive thing, an active thing, an intricately organic thing, a self-aware thing inhabiting the world on its own terms and able to assert those terms. Non-feminism, made aware of itself, will surround feminism, dismantle it into 1,427 pieces, and finally dissolve it back into the primordial elements from which it sprang.
