Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The first tenet of male-supremacist ideology is that men have a self that exists separate from women, and that women must by definition lack a self. The male self is not just subjectively felt but protected by laws and customs.
#2 The second tenet of male supremacy is that men are physically stronger than women, and as a result, have dominion over them. The physical strength of men is not as important as the ideology that sacralizes and celebrates it.
#3 Power is the capacity to terrorize, to use self and strength to inculcate fear, fear in a whole class of persons. The acts of terror run the gamut from rape to battery to sexual abuse of children to war to murder to maiming to torture to enslaving.
#4 Men have the power of naming, which is a great and sublime power. Men define the parameters of every subject. All feminist arguments are against assertions or premises inherent in the male system, which is made credible or authentic by the power of men to name.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The first tenet of male-supremacist ideology is that men have a self that exists separate from women, and that women must by definition lack a self. The male self is not just subjectively felt but protected by laws and customs.

#2

The second tenet of male supremacy is that men are physically stronger than women, and as a result, have dominion over them. The physical strength of men is not as important as the ideology that sacralizes and celebrates it.

#3

Power is the capacity to terrorize, to use self and strength to inculcate fear, fear in a whole class of persons. The acts of terror run the gamut from rape to battery to sexual abuse of children to war to murder to maiming to torture to enslaving.

#4

Men have the power of naming, which is a great and sublime power. Men define the parameters of every subject. All feminist arguments are against assertions or premises inherent in the male system, which is made credible or authentic by the power of men to name.

#5

The fifth tenet of male supremacy is the presumption that the male’s right to own the female and her issue is natural, predating history. Whatever he does to maintain ownership is also natural, and it is action originating in an ethic that is in no sense relative.

#6

The power of money is distinctly male. Money speaks with a male voice. In the hands of women, money stays literal. In the hands of men, money buys women, sex, status, dignity, esteem, recognition, loyalty, and all sorts of possibility.

#7

The sexual meaning of money is acted out by men on a wide scale, but it is also internalized and applied to the interior functioning of male sexual processes. Men are supposed to hoard sperm and money, and control them both to demonstrate their masculinity.

#8

The power of sex is the exclusive domain of the male. The male defines sex as penile intromission followed by penile thrusting, or fucking. The woman is acted on, while the man acts and through action expresses sexual power.

#9

The seventh tenet of male supremacy is that sexual power authentically originates in the penis. Men believe that women have sexual power, so they don’t have to take responsibility for the consequences of their actions.

#10

Pornography is a genre that revolves around male power. The strains of male power are embodied in pornography’s form and content, in economic control of and distribution of wealth within the industry, in the picture or story as thing, and in the photographer or writer as aggressor.

#11

The photograph shows two white men, dressed as hunters, sitting in a black Jeep. The men carry rifles. They face the camera and possess the power of self. They are armed first, because they are fully clothed; second, because they carry rifles, which are made more prominent by extending outside the frame of the photograph; third, because they are shielded by being inside the vehicle.

#12

The power of naming is important. The men have named the woman beaver, and in doing so, they have diminished her to the point of annihilation. Her humanity is canceled out, and she becomes an animal.

#13

The photograph also signifies the wealth of men as a class. The power of sex resides in the male, though the characterization of the female as a wild animal suggests that the sexuality of the untamed female is dangerous to men.

#14

The power of sex is ultimately defined as the power of conquest. It is nonconsensual, and everything that they do to or with her is violence. She will be or is dead, and they did or will kill her.

#15

In Whip Chick, Scott Healy, who has a big cock, fucks Mrs. Alice Waverly in a motel. She thanks him. Alice and Scott are seen at the motel by Cora Hertzell, a professor at a local college. Alice is outraged that Cora, a teacher, is at the motel. She determines to rid the town of Cora.

#16

The author of Whip Chick, Jennifer Lee, is not a woman. The book is male fantasy, not rooted in reality. The men in the book are punished by women for their failures of masculinity, which leads to the loss of everything they should have.

#17

The book Whip Chick is a warning to men that the feminist wants to castrate them, use their sexuality a
