Actually, I was earning my M.S. in Women's Studies at "Minnesota State University, Mankato." I finished that in 2005, and now I'm a Ph.D. student in Sociology at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa.<BR/> Second, I'm rather proud to be named a "heretic." However, I don't think I deserve the honor in this case. Moreover, I simply am one that embraces paradoxes. Thus, my claim that non-Muslim Western scholars may understand Islamic practices "better" as well as differently, precisely because they aren't Muslims.<BR/> In the rush to emphasize "standpoint" in feminist studies, we tend to place greater value on the viewpoint that comes closest to the situation being studied. By corrolary, many people almost automatically reject anything from anyone whose standpoint is "outside" the situation.<BR/> Shirley Jackson's famous short story, "The Lottery," illustrates the problem with valuing standpoints over each other. The villagers certainly have the closest standpoint--they are throwing the stones, and they insist this tradition must be "continued." We, the readers, are horrified--justly--that any community would simply select someone and stone them to death. Hang tradition! <BR/> Once again, there are no easy answers in a discusion involving feminism. Quel surprise! <BR/> Incidentally, I have started my own blog, "Writer of Discontent."<BR/><BR/>http://www.writerofdiscontent.blog,com<BR/><BR/> I just posted an essay on why the Democrats should not be blamed for voting another $80 billion to continue the Iraq War. I'm building toward a comprehensive analysis of Left strategy and analysis. I'm not just a "heretic," but a "free radical" and card-carrying member of the "improper fraction!"

However, I'm sure the administrators of WMST-L -- the largest academic feminist e-list -- would be disappointed to learn that in your opinion, their list does not reflect the state of the field.<BR/><BR/>And the fact that, on this listserv, people who make bizarre claims such as "women in America are silenced in ways similar to women under the Taliban" find an invariably supportive atmosphere speaks volumes about the field.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, <I>anonymous</I>, I really don't need Gerda Lerner to tell me that veiling is oppressive to women.Cathy Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688616617444359647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306845.post-1132761534364883702005-11-23T10:58:00.000-05:002005-11-23T10:58:00.000-05:00I am glad that your blog is not widely read. Your ...I am glad that your blog is not widely read. Your selective reading and sloppy summary are a real shame. Have you actually gotten a degree from an accredited university?<BR/><BR/>It doesn't take much intelligence to realize that a few comments posted on a listserv actually are not a representation of a field at all. The comments on that list are actually questions and answers posted to those questions. Do your homework!<BR/><BR/>And to post that Patai or Miyamoto are somehow slapped down or ignored is ridiculous. There is debate. Everyone is subjected to that.<BR/><BR/>Gerda Lerner's work on the veil is highly problematic and very out of date. Surely in school you learned to KEEP UP on research? <BR/><BR/>Seriously.

When you keep hearing the same thing over and over again, and nineteen times out of twenty it is either absurdly exagerrated or complete nonsense, after a while you stop listening. It is effective time-management. I know I'm not alone on that one either; most of the men and women I went to college, liberal and conservative alike, ended up with the same attitude. Blame white men for everything, collect your 'A', and check the "diversity studies" requirement off on your transcript.<BR/><BR/>Which is a damned shame, really. The emphasis on imagined wrongdoing makes it hard to focus on actual wrongdoing.Revenanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374515200055384226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306845.post-1132643729053591082005-11-22T02:15:00.000-05:002005-11-22T02:15:00.000-05:00Victoria: trust me, I am no Gerda Lerner fan, thou...Victoria: trust me, I am no Gerda Lerner fan, though I suspect that when it comes to veiling she probably has a good point.<BR/><BR/>And thank you for the kind words.<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry you weren't able to read <I>Reading Lolita in Tehran</I> -- I hope you can get your hands on it again!Cathy Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688616617444359647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306845.post-1132642421370946172005-11-22T01:53:00.000-05:002005-11-22T01:53:00.000-05:00The Creation of Patriarchy by Gerda Lerner*sinking...<EM>The Creation of Patriarchy by Gerda Lerner</EM><BR/><BR/>*sinking feeling in pit of stomach*<BR/><BR/>...anyway, I don't want to dilute your wonderfully sustained argument in your blogpost, Cathy, with some peptic complaint about Gerda Lerner's wafflings.<BR/><BR/>Let me say that you have this amazing ability to summarise, and reduce an argument's many sides, without taking away the substantive points.<BR/><BR/>This is a talent which I cannot tell you, how much I admire.<BR/><BR/><EM>As a sane feminist friend of mine quipped upon reading this: "Groupthink is restored.

It is then racist. But if a group of black people attack a single white person, we call it a political argument. <BR/><BR/>*Sigh*Anti Misandryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16718972959441025152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306845.post-1132626461516779542005-11-21T21:27:00.000-05:002005-11-21T21:27:00.000-05:00Cathy, yes, indeed.

There's a definite strain of thought in cultural anthropology, at least, that in all ways, Western society is more violent, repressive, inegalitarian, sexist, racist, classist, etc. than any given indigenous culture, and if there should be one or two examples where an indigenous society is shown to be worse than Western society, it's entirely due to Western influence (i.e. they wouldn't have become so patriarchal, etc. if it weren't for pressure by advancing Western imperialist society.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11306845.post-1132623394571780352005-11-21T20:36:00.000-05:002005-11-21T20:36:00.000-05:00That's a wonderful book!
