The most vulnerable scene in Materialists, Director Celine Song’s sophomore feature, isn’t a love scene. It’s not when John, a down-on-his-luck artist played by Chris Evans, repeatedly declares his love for Lucy, his ex and matchmaker for New York’s elite played by Dakota Johnson. Nor is it during one of the many dates Harry, Pedro […] The post Jane Austen Did It Better appeared first on Electric Literature.| Electric Literature
I am supporting the ghost of Jackie’s body and doing math. How many drinks has she had? Three? Four? We are curved together over the lip of the trash can as she empties her stomach.

Her skin is shiny and leached of color, amplified by the artificial lights in the windowless bar bathroom. Earlier there was a man, tall and insistent. Men ...| Brevity: A Journal of Concise Literary Nonfiction
You don’t actually understand an idea until you know its history. That lesson is one that most people have been doing their level best not to learn in recent years.

Germany was no exception; women began to hold demonstrations for women’s suffrage there as early as 1910.

Sometimes I chastise myself for overthinking things, especially when it comes to anxious thoughts. However, I’ve realized that no one else is going to analyze this stuff for me. I do self-guided therapy because of the expense (financial and otherwise) of traditional therapy. So thinking about things deeply is to dwell in the belly of […]| Emily Suess

Know yourself not your role, it’s hellishly hard. – Shere Hite When feminist scholar Shere Hite applied for a doctoral program at Columbia University, she wanted to study with acclaimed scholar Jacques Barzun. She was inspired by the elder scholar’s approach to history and was eager to learn from him. Unfortunately, he was very dismissive […]| c4 journal

Christian Patriarchists and Christian Nationalists must recognize each other as brothers in Christ, part of the same universal body of Christ, if they are ever to be truly united against a world that opposes Christian Patriarchy and Christian Nationalism. This means we need to stop the silliness on all sides where some Protestants say you […]| Biblical Gender Roles

even if society doesn’t yet take endometriosis seriously, your symptoms are not trivial and something you should “just cope with.” It’s hard to imagine illnesses that have such severe consequences that affect all sexes, being treated as flippantly as endometriosis still is.
