Catharine MacKinnonová

Catharine MacKinnonová: Citáty anglicky

“Women fake vaginal orgasms, the only 'mature' sexuality, because men demand that they enjoy vaginal penetration.”

Catharine A. MacKinnon

Sexuality, Pornography, and Method: "Pleasure under Patriarchy" (1989) Ethics, Vol. 99, No. 2 pp. 314-346

“So the idea that there is nothing essential, in the sense that there are no human universals, is dogma. Ask most anyone who is going to be shot at dawn.”

Catharine A. MacKinnon

"Postmodernism and Human Rights" (2000), p. 53
Are Women Human?: and Other International Dialogues (2006)

“To be a prisoner means to be defined as a member of a group for whom the rules of what can be done to you, of what is seen as abuse of you, are reduced as part of the definition of your status.”

Catharine A. MacKinnon

"Francis Biddle's Sister: Pornography, Civil Rights, and Speech" (1984), p. 170
Feminism Unmodified: Discourses on Life and Law (1987)

“All sex, even consensual sex between a married couple, is an act of violence perpetrated against a woman.”

Catharine A. MacKinnon

The allegation that Catharine MacKinnon equated sex with rape, or suggested that all sex is hostile, seems to have been first made in the October 1986 issue of Playboy. Catharine MacKinnon has denied ever saying anything of the kind. http://www.snopes.com/quotes/mackinno.htm <br class="br">Instead MacKinnon asserts that rape and intercourse are &quot;difficult to distinguish&quot; (1983), and that &quot;the major distinction between intercourse (normal) and rape (abnormal) is that the normal happens so often that one cannot get anyone to see anything wrong with it&quot; (1989). <br class="br">Misattributed

“In a patriarchal society all heterosexual intercourse is rape because women, as a group, are not strong enough to give meaningful consent.”

Catharine A. MacKinnon

These words were quoted by the conservative writer Cal Thomas as coming from Professing Feminism, a book by Daphne Patai and Noretta Koertge which he mistakenly ascribed to Catharine MacKinnon.<br><br> http://www.snopes.com/quotes/mackinno.htm<br><br>The actual passage in that book are the authors&#x27; characterization of MacKinnon&#x27;s views rather than a direct quotation: And Andrea Dworkin and Catharine MacKinnon have long argued that in a patriarchal society all heterosexual intercourse is rape because women, as a group, are not in a strong enough social position to give meaningful consent—an assault on individual female autonomy uncannily reminiscent of old arguments for why women should not have political rights.<br><br><br>Instead MacKinnon argues that heterosexuality &quot;institutionalizes male sexual dominance and female sexual submission&quot; (1982) and that &quot;Sexual access is regularly forced or pressured or routinized beyond denial&quot; (1991). <br class="br">Misattributed

“Feminism, Socialism, and Communism are one in [sic] the same, and Socialist/Communist government is the goal of Feminism.”

Falsely attributed to Toward a Feminist Theory of the State (First Harvard University Press, 1989), p. 10 in "Waste, Fraud, and Abuse: Hearing Before the Committee on Ways and Means", US House of Representatives, , and spread on the Internet.
