~The Red Menace~

Radical Feminist, Anarcha-Socialist, Lezbian Queer Dyke Cunt Lover, Secular Humanist, Activist Social Change Agent, Mestiza-Classed, Community Builder, RED MENACE!!


I'm a Public Leader, Community Organizer, and Community Builder. And I'm also an Anarcha-Socialist who fights to eliminate capitalism and other political, social, and economic hierarchies to create a society without institutions where all people have equal access to knowledge and production, emphasizes trade unions and decentralized methods of direct democracy, and finds any institutional form to be abusive. And I'm a Radical Feminist who believes the cause of women's oppression to be within patriarchy and the cause of all oppression to be in the mimicked hierarchical structures such as capitalism and amerikkkanism and globalism and colonialism and imperialism and jesusgodism which means society needs to be recreated and not changed cuz change just rearranges the same shit in a different order. And I'm a Secular Humanist who believes we got ourselves into this mess and can only rely on ourselves to get the hell out. And I'm Mestiza-Classed: the educated working-class wonder! And a Lezbian Queer Dyke Cunt Lover. An active activist social change agent iconoclastic catalyst. A VOICE with capital letters that stand tall and out and above and are heard and seen...always an outspoken mouth on the pretty face of the strong head of an independent woman. I'm an individual within the collective. And a Revolution! I'm a ReVoLuTiOn! and revolutionizer. A riotous redhead. THE Red Menace!

A Great Marriage Vow

Traditional marriage vows suck! And while personalized vows help to alleviate such garbage and recognize that all relationships are not the same in or out of the eyes of god, many partners seem to feel it impossible to sum up their relationship in a few short minutes (like traditional marriage vows do it any better...). Let's ignore - for 2 seconds, but no more than that because it could be hazardous - the general suckiness of the institution of marriage and focus on this truly fantastic marriage vow, one that simply and nicely captures partnership, and that was adopted by my beautiful mother and her new husband:

We will let each other know if there is something we need that we aren't getting. :)

May it gracefully guide me through my own relationships... Love you, Mommy!
