Sexism everywhere, feminists everywhere!
If you too are tired from the paternalism that speaks to our site, or by violence that seeks to silence us, join us at the feminist protest March 7, 2009!
. Because it exists for the majority of people still two distinct classes, women and men, and it is better to belong to the second than the first. Because we DEMAND to have the choice of our sex, our gender, our sexuality. Because we want women, and all their allies, can take ownership of their body and its representations, without having to comply with the injunctions of oppressive norms, reductive and stereotyped conveyed in all areas.
Because there are a thousand ways to get into the "right way" the insurgent against their gender, their gender, their fate binding: the assignment forced by intersex genital mutilation, rape of retaliation against lesbians ; psychiatrization of the trans, the most consistent male violence - in France, every three days a woman is murdered by the man with whom she lives.
Because our health goes last, because the right of women to control their body is constantly challenged, as evidenced by the recent questioning of public financing of Planned Parenthood and many other associations popular education, because knowledge is captured by gynecologic physicians, contraception not always reimbursed, the right to abortion threatened under the influence of the Catholic Church. Because all the institutions that wield power au nom de la religion ou d’une autorité morale ou politique prétendent toujours contrôler nos corps.
Parce que nous sommes largement touchées par le VIH, discriminées dans les essais par les labos qui ne prennent pas en compte notre métabolisme spécifique, parce que nous n’avons pas le même accès à des traitements de qualité, parce que nous sommes négligées dans les campagnes de prévention publiques, parce que, précarisées, nous sommes particulièrement touchées par les attaques contre la Sécurité Sociale, et notamment par l’instauration des franchises, ou par la remise en cause de l’hôpital public.
Because we are too insecure and often part-time without having chosen it, we're still paid less than men for equal work and equal qualifications, and we do the vast majority of unpaid work called "domestic work . Because we are the first to pay for the crisis and the dismantling of public services. Because, despite laws and announcement effects, the public domain and policy we still largely closed.
Because as racialized women, we struggle in all areas against the double oppression of racist and sexist. Because the logic racism goes directly to our right to freely dispose of our bodies. Because it operates by exclusion as the law on religious signs at school that claims to "protect" us - especially Muslim girls - indeed contributes to stigmatize us to lock ourselves in the status of victims "and to marginalize us.
Because, without papers, we will suffer both the precariousness of the racist policies of the French government, challenged the right to family reunification, the intensification of police stops. Because this repressive climate distances us further access to care.
Because as prostitutes, we are despised, harassed and criminalized by the law on internal security (LSI) in 2003. Because the crime of passive soliciting increases our vulnerability and our underground and we can not perform our work in decent conditions and protect us.
For a feminist who refuses to see his speech recovered for racists, who knows how to build, develop empowerment in all its forms, a struggling offensive feminism fully against the patriarchal system and all oppression, whether of class, sexist, racist or related to sexuality, feminism is also claims that non-white feminisms, trans and lesbians.
