The Purse: Unpacking Femme Privilege
We have knapsacks and backpacks, perhaps it's time to stir the things around in the Purse to take a look at Femme Privilege.
Many of us "pass" as straight whether we want to or not. There is a long list of privileges associated with being Femme in the outside world. Let's talk about them. I also believe that privilege can be situational. i.e. Femme privilege looks very different on a website geared toward Butches, Femmes, and Queer folks than it does at the supermarket or on the job. So there it is. Let's have a discussion between Femmes and Feminine-identified people to see if we can do a little unpacking. |
