Take the Which Western feminist icon are you? quiz.

What sexuality do you identify with?

I am married, for a while, but will sleep with pretty much anybody. I live with a gay man and have for 20 years, but I identify as a lesbian. Nobody knows what sexuality I am. I've lived in ways that are ambigious and choose to keep my sexuality private. I am heterosexual. I once believed that marriage equals prostitution, but ended up hitched. I am bisexual, but have had primary relationships with men. I lived with the same man for 11 years and he stole my soul. I am a lesbian (big time), but also a mom. I am a spinster. My sexuality is anybody's guess. I am a heterosexual. I am married, but we both kept our own names and struggle with the difficulties of having a sexual partners I am a heterosexual, married person. I have scads of children. I was engaged to a gay man, married a straight man, and had a public affair with a married womyn. It's ok, her husband's gay! I was married young, but we divorced. I pursued freedom and free seuxal relationships. I was with the same person for decades, but we never married. Sadly, for most of that time, we didn't have sex. We are many peop I am queer. I participate in same-sex relationships, but "gay" or "lesbian" just isn't enough to describe me! I am sexually ambigious. Everyone thinks I'm a dyke, but I do date men. I probably date wymyn, too, but I might kick your ass if I am heterosexual, by most accounts. I am a lesbian, and have come out in my culture, which has been a challenge.

What is your stance on abortion?

I am pro-choice, of course. You can't be a feminist and NOT be pro-choice. I never had to make a decision on having children, since I couldn't. Nobody knows my political stance. I am pro-choice. I see no reason why government and men should be fucking with my body. I am pro-choice. If wymyn were truly free, abortion would not be necessary. Since they're not, it is. Abortions are a result of a patriarchal society. I would NEVER malign a womyn that had one, nor would I tell her not to. I am pro-life. Motherhood is sacred. If wymyn were empowered, abortion would not be necessary, but that doesn't make the action I am pro-life. One of the reasons wymyn must be equal to men is to fulfill their potential as mothers. Abortion is a problem of the lower classes. I've never had to think about it, myself. I have not taken a public stance on abortion, possibly because I would have to do a lot of work to become pregnant in the first I am pro-choice, unconditionally. I'm a mother and I'm pro-choice It's not my decision to make. I'm a man. I'm so pro-choice, there's a CLINIC named after me. I think that there are race and class politics in abortion and to address it without addressing these is to ignore oppression. I hung out with artists and writers. Abortions just HAPPENED in those circles. Sometimes, access to abortion can mean something like eugenics. I'm pro-choice, but I'm not ok with the ethnic cleansing of my c

What is the most important feminist issue?

Allowing wymyn to live as they want to and pursue the things they love. Wymyn need the financial stability and freedom to define their own lives. All workers must be liberated. Let's start with the wymyn and children. Wymyn must be considered equal to men before any other steps forward can be taken. Gender is a social construct. Once we obliterate it, people will be free. Wymyn, particularly wymyn who have had violence committed against them, need to be heard. I want to teach them to shout. Race, class, and gender must be examined, recognized, and the power redistributed. The voices of the silenced must be heard, particularly within the movements that CLAIM to give them voices. Violence against wymyn, including the institutionalized domination of men over wymyn, must torn down. The structure of Western culture has, at its very foundation, the domination of men over wymyn. The structure must be rebuilt. Wymyn need equality in government, the workplace, and in their homes. Feminism is about all human beings reaching their full potential. If people would shut up and listen, they'd see that. Wymyn need to love each other and empower one another because men won't do it for us. Wymyn need a voice in government and that is the most important thing. Men need to check patriarchal privilege before they can enter into any relationships, social, sexual, or political, with wymyn. Wymyn need men to get out of their way in order to realize their full potential as human beings, wives, and mothers.

Men ... love 'em or leave 'em?

Eh ... thanks for the kid. I'm sure you do some good work, but ... I just don't care. I've got my girls over here. I used to really depend on men for emotional support and validation, but I eventually figured out that I can only depend on myse I prefer the company of men, especially gay men. All the men in my life treat me as an equal. I am shocked when someone treats m Men are comrades and they're fun in bed. A man is my soulmate, but in reality, I needed to separate myself from him to become whole. I was held back by both our intimacy Man is a subjective concept. I don't buy into this "man" "woman" thing. Men can come along, but there are times where they just gotta stand in the back. My space is womyn-space FIRST and foremost. Men are partners in the struggle, but there are times when men need to check their own privilege and not play the pain game. Let's not talk about men. I wanna talk about wymyn and why we're not listening to them. Men benefit from patriarchy. If they want to do something about it, I welcome them to, but I'm not here to hold their hands thro Relationships between men and wymyn are based on domination. We have come to find this domination sexy. Wymyn need to define the Men need to join wymyn in the struggle for equality. I think that often wymyn give up their power to be in a relationship with men. There ought to be a way to interact where men AND Men are in the way. I don't want to ask permission for my equality, but I kind of have to. Men need to listen to wymyn and educate themselves. They need to take their cues for action from the wymyn that experience oppre Men and wymyn can have amazing relationships, but not until wymyn are allowed to realize their full potential.
