“The desire of the senses is the desire, if not to destroy oneself, at least to be consumed and to lose oneself without reservation.”

Welcome to AmazonianFeminism.com!

AmazonianFeminism.com is where individuals can discuss feminist theory and current issues in a range of fields such as literature, film, politics and activism.  The feminist movement emerged as a challenge to the constructs of femininity and gender roles pervasive in our society.  However, feminist theory, in its aim for truth, must also be put to the test.  Feminism is not about anger or man-hating.  Rather, feminist critical thought is a means to discover ourselves and undestand those elements that shape the way we live and think.  If we are aware of our role within  patriarchal power structures, we can identify more efficient ways to articulate and express forms of resistance to those elements which constrain us and stifle our breath.  As the name implies, Amazonian Feminism aims at empowering individuals, both men and women, to pursue self-exploration (physicality, psychology, sexual identity, gender performance) and fight for their rights in a form that is strong, relentless, innovative, but most of all,  condusive to emancipation and the constitutional pursuit of happiness.
