Interesting Suggestion

“'Attend to how your mind moves as you read,' she wrote in her introduction to Male Fantasies,  'how you will sometimes be made aware of yourself reading.' At some moments in the book ahead, she promised, the fascist fantasy would invert before the reader. 

'The dams break. Curiosity swims upstream and turns around, surprising itself. Desire streams forth through the channels of the imagination. Barriers—between women and men, the 'high' and the 'low'—crumble in the face of this new energy. This is what the fascist held himself in horror of, and what he saw in communism, in female sexuality—a joyous commingling, as disorderly as life. In this fantasy, the body expands, in its senses, its imaginative reach, to fill the earth. And we are at last able to rejoice in the softness and the permeability of the world around us, rather than holding ourselves back in lonely dread. This is the fantasy that makes us, both men and women, human—and makes us, sometimes, revolutionaries in the cause of life.'" 

~ B. Ehrenreich qtd in G. Winant's
