Beschreibung

<p><strong>From the author of </strong><strong><em>Enemy Feminisms</em></strong><strong> and </strong><strong><em>Abolish the Family</em></strong><strong>, an original diagnosis of femmephobia in our culture, and a vision of a life-giving femme feminism for all.<br><br></strong>To be femme is to embody a dispossessed femininity, to be freighted with freedom, to refuse to be made proper or institutionalized. To love it is to embrace love for women (be they butch or not) in the broadest sense. In <em>Femmephilia</em>, Sophie Lewis makes the case for the vital importance of politicized femme-ness: a feminism that is self-consciously artificial, extravagant in its erotic and political appetites, and staunchly anti-work, abolitionist, and utopian. Femme labors deserve our care, respect, and support, but instead face dismissal from masculinist antagonists and feminist allies alike.<br><br>Where neoliberal women's empowerment has failed to combat the eruption of right-wing, anti-trans, and anti-feminist attacks, Lewis argues that femmephilia can help us imagine a radical future. In essays on the high femme genius of Marilyn Monroe and trans yearning in the myth of Apollo and Daphne; on octopuses and girlbosses, reluctant heterosexuals, lesbian separatists, and anti-work cats; and on a mother on strike from maternity, <em>Femmephilia</em> offers a new logic of liberation for <em>all</em> feminized people.</p>
