Mary Harrington’s new book, Feminism Against Progress - feminism's failures, body alienation, and technology
“At the heart of Harrington’s critique of feminist thinking is its denial of the fundamental asymmetry between the sexes. As she sees it, women’s capacity to bear children is not a simple addendum to some generic, genderless human; it is the essence of being a particular sort of human, a female human. Yet ‘progress’ has been taking us in a direction where individual self-fulfillment seems possible only through female dis-embodiment.” - IFS
