On Andrea Dworkin

This is the best meditation I've seen yet on Andrea Dworkin's passing. My doctrinaire feminist period was so brief you would have missed it had you blinked, and I never read Dworkin, but she and her work shaped the world I live in in a lot of ways, some I appreciate more than others.

I sometimes wonder what it would be like to say BOO-yah, I won't be complicit in sexism, I'll never take comfort in the parting gifts that girls receive for being good at being female, and then after a while I remember, oh yeah... it would be a lot like being Andrea Dworkin. Which I guess is why most women don't do it.

Read it. Even if you don't know who Dworkin was, read it.
