Podcast appearances and mentions of susan brownmiller

The Village Voice aimed to show readers something that mainstream publications wouldn't: live theater productions climbing through the scaffolding of off-Broadway venues; moments in music from hip-hop to jazz to punk; New York City civil issues, like corrupt landlords; and global issues, like the AIDS crisis. Through decades of independent reporting and first-hand accounts within the myriad subcultures of New York, the Village Voice built a journalistic legacy of lived experience, bold critique, and political activism. One can't help but wonder, what it must have been like to be one of the writers, editors, or photographers who was in on the action. In her debut book, The Freaks Came Out to Write, Tricia Romano shares her journey from intern to contributor at the Village Voice, and the multi-generational significance of the weekly paper that reached far beyond the neighborhoods of New York City. Romano's accounts include over 200 interviews that span decades and feature influential figures such as Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead, feminist writers Vivian Gornick and Susan Brownmiller, the post-punk band Blondie, and many other acclaimed individuals in the realms of art, politics, and society. Romano ties it all together in an expansive oral history that tells the story of journalism, New York City and American culture — and the most famous alt-weekly of all time. Tricia Romano is a writer, columnist, and editor whose work has been published in the New York Times, Rolling Stone, Elle, the Los Angeles Times, and of course the Village Voice, among others. Her column, Fly Life, dug into the underbelly of New York nightlife and she has penned award-winning stories on music and culture. She has served as a fellow at MacDowell, Millay, and UCross, a staff writer at the Seattle Times, and as editor-in-chief of the Stranger, Seattle's own alternative newsweekly. Dan Savage is a sex-advice columnist, a podcaster, an author, and has appeared on numerous television shows. Formerly the editor of the Stranger, Dan's sex-advice column “Savage Love,” is syndicated worldwide. He has published seven books and his weekly sex advice podcast Savage Lovecast. Jane Levine worked for more than 30 years at alternative weeklies. She started as an intern at Chicago Reader in 1973 and returned to serve as publisher from 1994 to 2004. In between, she held business-side positions at Los Angeles Reader, North Carolina Independent, and Seattle Weekly.   Buy the Book The Freaks Came Out to Write: The Definitive History of the Village Voice, the Radical Paper That Changed American Culture Third Place Books

Today we share excerpts from “She's Beautiful When She's Angry,” a documentary filled with stories that still resonate today as women face new challenges around reproductive rights and sexual violence.  The documentary tells the stories of the activists of the Women's Liberation Movement that gained traction in the late 1960s and led to social and policy changes that set women on a path towards equality and reproductive justice. It also addresses the intersections of race and gender and the experiences of the Black women who were integral to this movement.  The film is about activists, those who inspire, organize, and revolutionize the world by changing the standards and broadening what we think is possible.  Learn more about the story and find the transcript on radioproject.org.

Today's video is brought to you by a donation from David and this is what he had to say "Hi sandman, Thanks for making my last video, was wondering if you could make another one talking about false rape claims (the statistics regarding them) + the price men pay who are falsely accused, even after they have been proven innocent specifically here in the USA. Thanks -David" The difference between what David wants me to do and what I've done in the past is to present a fact based argument with regards to false rape statistics in the United States. The most important thing is figure out the source of any stats that outline false allegations and outline them in an unbiased way. The source I'm using for this video is actually an article from back in 2009 called "Why It's So Hard to Quantify False Rape Charges. How Often Do Women Women Falsely Cry Rape?" One of the main reasons feminists get away with promoting the idea that there is a rape culture is because there are no stats to back up what they are saying or stats to disprove what they are saying. It's the obscurity and unavailability of information that allows feminists to say what they do without the Men's Rights Movement proving them wrong. The lack of information in this case is like walking into a dark room with cockroaches in it. You don't know how many false allegations there are versus actual rapes. The actual rapes being the cockroaches in this case, just so I don't piss any feminists off. According to this article there were about 200,000 rapes in 2008. So assuming violent crimes have continued trending down today there would be about 180,000 to 200,000 rapes in 2013 with about 20,000 of them being false allegations. And we are not including the statistics for male rape in prison here. Susan Brownmiller wrote a book back in 1975 called Against our Will: Men, Women and Rape. In her book she says she interviews female police officers in New York Cities rape squad and those are the stats she got. But those are not cold hard stats. On the other side of the coin we have a male author Phillip Rumney and he claims the 2 percent isn't an accurate statistic either and he says the false allegations make up 40% of the cases of rape charges being filed. His data is based on the work of EJ Kanin in the "Archives of Sexual Behaviour." Here's a quote from the article: "Kanin looked at 109 reports of rape to police in one small Midwestern metropolitan area over nine years. His pool was small. The police he studied always offered the victim a polygraph—perhaps signaling they doubted her veracity. And Kanin himself "warns against generalizing from his findings." That's what the article says. one hundred and nine people is a very small cross section of the population and polygraph tests can be fudged and don't always hold up. So I'm willing to split the difference and say that 10-30% of rape allegations are false. It's simply impossible to know how many and David I wish I could give you a clear answer because then we would have some hard data to present to feminists and they wouldn't be able to scream rape culture if thirty percent of all rape allegations were fake.

In 1975, Susan Brownmiller published the very popular and controversial book "Against Our Will: Men, Women and Rape". In it, she argues that rape is an ever present force within sexist society and not some distant event that happens in the margins of every day life. Rape should be brought to the forefront of our consciousness as a society, so we can eradicate the culture that leads to it. Her main controversies came in the chapters on race, where many accused Brownmiller of resurrecting racist imagery. A difficult subject, but an important one, discussed in an extra long episode. We also speak about MeToo.

In the 1960s and early 1970s many Americans believed that rape was a rare and violent act perpetrated by outsiders and sociopaths. Popular culture taught men that women needed to be tricked or coerced into sex, and psychiatrists accused rape victims of secretly inviting their attacks. Susan Brownmiller’s best-selling book Against Our Will shattered these myths about sexual violence. Informed by the broader feminist anti-rape movement, Against Our Will portrayed rape as a systemic, pervasive, and culturally sanctioned act of power and intimidation.Yet even as Brownmiller provided a framework for naming sexual violence as a mechanism of patriarchy, she also minimized the importance of race and denied the ways that rape accusations have long justified the criminalization and murder of men of color. At a moment when #MeToo has brought about yet another national reckoning with sexual violence and male power, Brownmiller’s book, its legacy, and the contexts that produced the anti-rape movement of the 1970s demand re-examination.Hosts and Creators: Gillian Frank and Lauren GuttermanSenior Producer: Saniya Lee GhanouiProducer and Story Editor: Rebecca DavisAssistant Producers: Chris Babits, Isabel Machado and Mallory SzymanskiIntern: Julian HarbaughThank you to Susan Brownmiller for sharing her story with us.If you enjoyed this episode, please review us on iTunes or Soundcloud and share us on social media.Please support our work and keep new episodes coming by making a small donation to Sexing History.

Wenn ihr denkt, die PorNo-Kampagne, die 1987 startete, sei ein alter Hut und hätte mit unserem heutigen, sex-positiven Feminismus überhaupt nichts mehr zu tun, dann lasst euch in diesem Podcast mitnehmen auf eine kleine Zeitreise: Katrin erzählt von ihrer Recherche zum Thema PorNo, die sie im Rahmen ihres aktuellen Buchprojektes von der Sexwelle zur Pornowelle gebracht hat und wie sie dabei einen Streit erkundete, die unsere Gesellschaft gespalten hat. Vor allem: Männer und Frauen gespalten hat. Denn während in einer Umfrage der "Für Sie" aus dem Jahr 1972 noch 71 Prozent aller Frauen gegen eine Freigabe von Pornografie waren, konsumierten vor allem Männer ab der Legalisierung 1975 ungehemmt die Filme, die es nun legal in Pornokinos und später auf Videokassette gab. Die Darstellung der Frauen in diesen Filmen war ein großes Thema und rief Feminstinnen weltweit auf den Plan. 1979 gründete sich zum beispiel in New York die Initiative Women Against Pornography (kurz WAP), Gründungsmitglieder waren u.a. Gloria Steinem, Susan Brownmiller, Adrienne Rich, Shere Hite, Andrea Dworkin und Catharine MacKinnon. Später entwickelten die Aktivistin Dworkin und die Juristin MacKinnon Gesetzentwürfe, die die Erniedrigung und Entwürdigung von Frauen durch pornografischen Darstellung stoppen sollten. Diese Entwürfe dürften Vorbild und Inspiration für eine ähnliche Bewegung hier in Deutschland gewesen sein. Auch hier formiert sich Widerstand, man will die Gesetzgeber dazu bringen, etwas gegen die entmenschlichenden Darstellungen von Frauen in der Mehrheit der damaligen Pornos zu unternehmen. Die PorNo-Kampagne von Alice Schwarzer und ein Gesetzesvorschlag der renommierten Juristin Lore-Maria Peschel-Gutzeit treten auf den Plan. Mit letzterer hat Katrin in dieser Sendung gesprochen. Außerdem kommt Erika Lust zu Wort, die mit ihren Pornos seit 15 Jahren die frauenfeindliche Pornowelt aufmischt. Am Ende gibt euch Katrin außerdem ein paar Tipps, wo ihr sonst noch feministischen und frauenfreundlichen Porno finden könnt.

Brad Feld, early stage investor and entrepreneur, co-founded Foundry group, Techstars, Mobius Venture Capital, and Intensity Ventures. Today on the Wonder podcast, Brad discusses how to execute your business better, how to properly raise money, and why radical self-inquiry is critical if you truly want to be successful. Tune-in to learn how Brad’s businesses are supporting women in IT, why hiring a “culture fit” is actually a bad idea, and how he is breaking the stigma around mental health issues.   Time Stamped Show Notes:   00:52 – In his book “Startup Opportunities” he discusses the difference between a startup and a small business; what’s the difference? 01:07 – The definition of entrepreneurship in government and the discussion of “mainstream business” and “startups” 01:50 – 2 categories: local business and startups (high-growth entrepreneurial businesses with an aspiration to grow very large and aren’t geographically bound) 03:04 – “Know When to Quit Your Day Job” 03:15 – Sean, his coauthor, had a book that talked about 100 or so characteristics of successful companies 03:30 – There are lots of good books on entrepreneurship, but the challenge with those is that people don’t know if the actual idea is any good 04:10 – “Startup Opportunities” is a book that says the execution is what’s important and gives advice on what to think about to increase your chances of starting a good business 04:36 – Brad’s biggest takeaway from the book is the notion that your idea needs to be 10x better than the existing ideas; not just incrementally better 04:50 – Local businesses are different, as they are geographically-based and don’t have to be 10x better 05:08 – It gets you out of incrementalist thinking 05:20 – How can people execute better? 05:26 – Founders can surround themselves with people who have been successful; build a mentor network of people who will put energy into what you are doing 05:45 – Mentorship doesn’t have to be hierarchal; mentors can be successful peers, too 06:06 – Its difficult to be a solo founder; most successful businesses have multiple founders or people that were there and instrumental at the beginning 06:56 – Don’t do it all yourself; get others to help you execute better 07:14 – Radical self-inquiry: Constantly try to learn more about yourself as you develop your practical skills 08:19 – Brad’s experience with radical self-inquiry 08:24 – Brad was president of a company for 7 years; he didn’t like the job and reflected on it after they sold the business and he had a staff role with the company that acquired them 08:56 – He was an angel investor and an active VC; it made him realize that he didn’t like being a CEO and that he couldn’t do both effectively 09:38 – Another example of radical self-inquiry was the decision to move based upon where they wanted to live instead of moving based on work 10:50 – Boston was never home; they wanted to choose a place, not be forced into a place 11:30 – Techstars has accelerator programs and activity all over the world and Foundry Group is based out of Boulder; it all came out of his own sense of self and importance 12:00 – What are the realities of capital raising that entrepreneurs need to understand and accept to be successful at it? 12:10 – Do or do not, there is no “try” 12:27 – Envision that you’ll be successful, but accept that you may not be successful 12:40 – Understand what you’re raising, why, and from whom; define your own next level 13:50 – Focus on investors that are appropriate based on your amount and your “why” 14:23 – View your fundraising as a key milestone; use the money to build something useful and don’t put too much weight on just the fact that you raised the money 14:56 – Brad’s latest investment: Looking Glass Factory 15:10 – They make a 3D holographic image display that you can interact with spatially; HoloPlayer One and SuperPepper (experimental) are a couple of their products 16:11 – Computer-human interaction creates an immersion collaboration experience 17:12 – Why do women entrepreneurs only get 2-3% of the funding, and how can that change? 17:18 – Brad’s been a part of the National Center for Women Information Technology for a long time where the discussion has been prevalent 17:29 – The alliance tried to get more women and girls in IT; there weren’t visible heroes for women in IT to look up to 18:10 – They found women that worked in IT and had successful businesses to interview and showcase 18:22 – Misogyny and bias (conscious and unconscious) create a power dynamic between men and women that inhibits the growth of women 19:00 – Men tend to select men; the venture business tends to be an apprenticeship business 19:38 – Brad hopes that we are in a societal shift that eliminates the frame of reference around power to have a gender link 19:53 – He read Susan Brownmiller’s Book “Against our Will” to understand the objectification of women in war and sports; he feels like we are going through a shift 20:40 – He’s hoping the Trump presidency has caused a tipping point, but it is still a long-term process 21:34 – Does the Foundry Group or Techstars have an effort to improve the odds for women needing investors? 21:36 – Techstars has a number of female managing directors, an aggressive diversity and inclusion initiative, and is working towards changing the behavior around all sorts of things so there isn’t gender conflict 22:38 – The Techstars Foundation’s mission is to improve diversity in entrepreneurship; this goes beyond gender to include people that are incarcerated 23:38 – Foundry as a firm didn’t have the goal to grow, the partners that are there have been there since the beginning and the pool of female VC’s is small 24:44 – With Foundry they focus on other things like advocacy activities and support of female GPs 25:10 – They constantly look for opportunities to invest in women; women in their portfolio has grown over the years 26:03 – They are taking action to participate and behave in a way that is consistent and supportive 25:25 – He is learning and wants to increase his understanding of the issues 27:30 – Brad’s thoughts on business-led apprenticeships 27:50 – The notion of apprenticeships is powerful; you want people to learn and grow despite whether you’d actually hire them 28:03 – The phrase “culture fit:” Hiring for “culture fit” is wrong, you should hire for “culture add” 28:20 – Find people that subscribe to your cultural norms but extend it with new thoughts, ideas, and perspectives; cultural fits decreases diversity characteristics 29:08 – Ask what you can invest in that will add to your experience and perspective instead of simply reinforce it; this can be at any level in your business that you see fit 29:52 – Example: Return Path company that he invested in 30:05 – The CTO’s wife had been out of the workforce for 10-15 years and when she tried to return, it was very difficult due to the “resume gap” 30:40 – Things in the workforce had changed so much as well (skills, technology, etc) 31:00 – Return Ships program: An internship program where they get back into the workforce, get paid, have a role, and hopefully get hired after the program 31:30 – Path Forward nonprofit does “Return Ships” and is doing well 32:00 – Change your culture by bringing in a different kind of person; they can add a new dimension to your organization and change the way it functions 32:24 – Brad’s view on the importance of community and the role of the entrepreneur in their community 33:46 – In EO from early 90s to late 90s, community wasn’t a category 34:00 – Entrepreneurs often feel too maxed out to invest time in their community 34:20 – Some entrepreneurs don’t have a frame of reference to understand what would give them joy in this context: His book coming out that discusses this is called “Give First” 34:55 – When you give first you don’t know what you are going to get back; get a bunch of people to give first so they can get back a significant amount 35:27 – Most successful communities of people have the giving characteristic; entrepreneurs can more clearly define the benefit to themselves 36:04 – Example: An entrepreneurial friend said he didn’t have time to give first and his biggest problem in business was that he couldn’t find any iOS developers 36:35 – He suggested a monthly iOS development meet-up where he could serve pizza, drinks, and beer to his iOS guy and his friends and connections 37:03 – After a year, he was doing well, was giving back to the community, the meet-up was successful and had grown, and his company was known as the one doing “cool iOS stuff” 27:30 – He didn’t know this would happen on day one, but it definitely benefited the business and community 37:46 – Most entrepreneurs spend 20-40% wasting their time; figure out how to spend 10% of your time doing something in the community 38:50 – The contribution to your community shouldn’t take away from you, it should feed your soul and give you joy 39:35 – Are there ways that people give that isn’t “correct”? 39:55 – On a personal level, Brad believes in Adam’s take in his book “Give and Take”: The people in life that are givers are happier and more successful 40:20 – If you are giving out of obligation rather than through radical self-inquiry, it won’t work for you or your success 41:25 – External reasons and justifications are not good or sustainable reasons; success in the absence of joy is pointless 42:31 – What is Brad’s view on depression? 42:37 – He talks openly about it because he believes it should be destigmatized 42:44 – Most entrepreneurs that he’s worked with have depression, anxiety, or simply low mental health 43:10 – The challenges of human society are nontrivial; he has clinical obsessive compulsive disorder and was very ashamed of it when he was diagnosed 43:45 – The shame is unhealthy and a societal norm that has been created; people have trouble accepting it and realizing that they can be successful and still manage these issues 44:25 – For Brad, he destigmatizes it by being open about it and discussing it with other entrepreneurs and their teenagers 45:18 – He helps entrepreneur parents understand their children 45:40 – This goes back to diversity; he can’t speak for women or people of color, but he can speak about his own diversities like his OCD and Jewish background 46:30 – He tries to learn, teach, and get rid of stigma and bias how he can 47:31 – Brad has had one suicidal ideation that he wrote about in his book “Startup Life” 47:40 – He and his wife made a rule that he would always tell her if he had suicidal thoughts 48:00 – The one time he had that thought, he told her and felt supported and safe 48:25 – His great-grandfather committed suicide during the Great Depression; he was an entrepreneur 49:00 – Processing this information helped him understand his own psychology, identify with it, and soften the relationship with it 49:58 – Speaking openly about mental health is important during the journey; EO groups have helped create the space for support in that realm 52:15 – He started the Boston and Colorado EO chapters; he was also very active in YEO   Key Points: Surround yourself with people who have been successful; work directly with others to help you execute better, and always participate in “radical self-inquiry.” When trying to raise capital, understand what you’re raising, why, and from whom; you must define your own next level. Contribute to your community in a way that feeds your soul and gives you joy.   Resources Mentioned: Entrepreneur's Organization – The EO Network Susan Brownmiller’s book - “Against our Will” Adam Grant’s book – “Give and Take” Brad’s book – “Startup Life”

Sexismus tritt in vielerlei Gestalt auf. Zum Beispiel in Form von Lohnunterschieden, oder Werbung, die Frauen auf ihren Körper reduziert. Ein anderer, sehr großer Teil von Sexismus ist Gewalt gegen Frauen. In dieser Folge beschäftigen wir uns mit sexualisierter Gewalt am Beispiel der jüngsten aufgedeckten Übergriffe in Hollywood. Wir argumentieren, dass es wichtig ist, sich nicht auf einzelne Täter*innen zu konzentieren, sondern sich die Struktur anzuschauen, in der sexualisierte Gewalt überhaupt so verbreitet und geschützt auftreten kann. Unserer Meinung nach ist das eben Sexismus. Wir glauben, dass Alltagssexismus wie sexistische Witze oder das angestarrt werden in der Bahn, und sexualisierte Übergriffe Phänomene sind, die nicht getrennt voneinander betrachtet werden können. Bitte beachtet, dass wir zwischen circa 10:00 und 10:25 Schilderungen eines Übergriffs einer Betroffenen wiedergeben.

Did you know in 1970 the first all-female class-action lawsuit was brought about by employees at Newsweek? Some of the brightest voices in journalism had been working and stagnating at the magazine for years - Nora Ephron, Susan Brownmiller, and Lynn Povich just to name a few. Author and journalist Lynn Povich Povich wrote about her experiences with Newsweek and the lawsuit in a book titled The Good Girls Revolt: How The Women Of Newsweek Sued Their Bosses And Changed The Workplace. The cover of Lynn Povich's book The feminist heavens have smiled upon us, and turned the book into an Amazon series loosely based on those events. You can watch the pilot here. I've been excited about this show since I became aware of it, and I was even more excited to find out one of my buddies, Jaime Andrews, is playing Dottie. Jaime Andrews  and Hannah Barefoot in Good Girls Revolt Jaime and fellow cast member, Hannah Barefoot (who plays Diane) were sweet enough to sit down and chat with me about how working on the show has influenced their own feminism and how there's still so much we can learn from the women who came before us.

In the 1975 bestselling book: Against Our Will, the feminist writer, Susan Brownmiller, asserted that “rape is about power, not sex.” Ever since, the conventional wisdom has been that rapists are misogynistic men seeking domination and power over women, not violent men seeking sex. However, there is a fundamental problem with Brownmiller’s bold assertion. In the ensuing 45 years, there has been no significant empirical research to support her claim. Yet, almost everyone repeats it. In examining eight years of FBI data on 250,000 rapes and other sexual assaults, one factor stands head-and-shoulders above the others: the age range of the victims. Herein lies the key to unlocking the mystery of the offender’s motivation. Social science has demonstrated a strong relationship between age and sexual attractiveness. Heterosexual men are sexually attracted to young women, while homosexual men are attracted to young men. The age preference explains why adult film stars, sex workers, exotic dancers as well as glamour models are often young, and why their earnings decline as they age. Studying the ages of victims, … The post To Rape is to Want Sex, Not Power appeared first on Quillette.
