>But notice: as a supposed rape victim, crying in the elevator, apparently very upset, she doesn’t go right to the hotel desk to report that she has been raped. You have to wonder why not.
rly makes you think...

Jane eyre/wide sargasso sea
Now that I think about it, just read a room of ones own and madwoman in the attic.

why does trauma cause women to stop thinking about how they might address the cause of their trauma?
i hear about this all the time- there's this thing where women will "go into shock" and find themselves unable to move, helpless as a guy rapes them.
what the hell is that, if it's not a reversion to some kind of natural state of womanhood? do men do it?
>>9422169
Men do it, yes, to a worse degree in fact. The women will eventually tell somebody, as in their social 'vulnerable' nature to do so. The men? They will refuse. They will try to ignore the cause of their trauma, as if the hunter has now been satiated for eternity.

>i've just been raped by a man hmmmm what should i do
>i know i'll go find a man and tell them i've been raped
personally i hate women but i can see the logic there
>>9422065
We are talking about non-fiction.
Why no Butler? Everything decent coming out of the third wave in the past 25 years has been from Butler
>>9422169
>why does trauma, a condition defined by its deteriorating effect on mental stability, cause people to make poor decisions?
Gee anon, you stumped me

My Ántonia isn't really feminist literature. The MC is a guy.
>>9423240
Its antonias story, a sympathetic story of female struggle. the male is just an observer
Andrea Dworkin is surprisingly on point. Read "Pornography"
>>9421594
Apparently Joyce fully embraces l' ecriture féminine in his works.
>>9423263
Hurr durr, no it isn't. Or did you skip the whole part about how the MC goes to college in Lincoln.
>>9423281
You mean, the part where the book starts to end because it's no longer about Antonia?
>>9423281
Did you skip the part where the male observes Antonia dealing with her fathers death from the shadows, or the recurring theme in his life in his returning home to witness the progression of Antonia's character and wasted potential and failed life?
>>9423281
The male mc's success is a stark contrast to Antonia's failures in spite of her greater intelligence, wisdom, work ethic, and moral stregnth. Indeed her greatest handicap was gender.

The Second Sex is the only nominally feminist work worth reading imo.
The rest is post-modern garbage.
>>9421594
What's the deal with bell hooks? I hear my college friends-of-friends mention her pretty regularly. Is she just a progressive garbage person?
>>9421594
>Good feminist /lit/
Nice one, OP.
Some of Virginia Woolf's books, like A Room of Ones Own, could be considered feminist in some aspects. Everything else is garbage.

She is the go-to feminist for intersectional feminism. She hilariously coined the term 'white supremacist capitalist patriarchy'.
Intersectional feminism is the modern branch of feminism that you see all over the internet. Combining the fight against different kinds of 'oppressions' into one combined movement, sometimes derogatorily described as 'oppression olympics'. Intersectional feminists think oppression can only be fought by appreciating several aspects of oppression at the same time, such as race, ability, gender, age, weight, you name it.

American Psycho. Not memeing.

>sometimes derogatorily described as 'oppression olympics'.
To be fair, it is pretty funny seeing it devolve into something it was designed to prevent.

Jane Eyre yes, Wide Sargasso Sea no.
Jane Eyre is about a strong, well-written woman finding her place in the world and learning how to be her own person before she can allow herself to be with the man she loves.
Wide Sargasso Sea is an attempted retcon of Jane Eyre, about a poorly written "feminist" sock puppet suffering under the control of a bunch of evil men.
