I also find Barbara Ehrenreich's preface to the book compelling, which you can read here: https://monoskop.org/images/5/54/Theweleit_Klaus_Male_Fantasies_Vol_1_Women_Floods_Bodies_History.pdf Good material to put in conversation with discourses on the imperial boomerang, as we do the work of tending to our analyses in service of building grounded strategies ♥️

@Mer__edith feels same as with muslim theocracies, who teach that men are weak and women are their weakness.

@Mer__edith Quite surprised to hear that the book took so long to get a translated version. German original from 1977/78.

@Mer__edith quite a few parallels to today’s incel maga “young republicans”. Only instead of literal killing they’re killing through restrictive laws and regulations to break their spirit.

@Mer__edith As a manliest man in the manverse, I don't mind getting engulfed in pussy. What are those men? Gay or what?
