All for the intent<br \/>\nof delegitimizing the world\u2019s various<br \/>\nfeminist movements. Which, needless<br \/>\nto say, exist because they are necessary.<br \/>\nI hope someday that it will cease to be<br \/>\nthis way; as in the case of the suffrage<br \/>\nmovement, the antislavery movement,<br \/>\nand others whose goal was to move<br \/>\ntoward a better place. And which, some<br \/>\nway or another, succeeded.<br \/>\nBut what about women? If they make<br \/>\nup over half of the population, why are<br \/>\nwomen still straggling behind, suffering<br \/>\nfrom female circumcision, forming<br \/>\nthe highest percentage of the world\u2019s<br \/>\nimpoverished? When will women move<br \/>\nforward without being belittled in their<br \/>\npaths?<br \/>\nWhen one woman suffers, we all suffer.<br \/>\nNevertheless, the greatest discrimination<br \/>\nis often horizontal (between ourselves),<br \/>\ntripping up one neighbouring<br \/>\nfemale companion. It\u2019s a matter of<br \/>\nconsciousness, I suppose.<br \/>\nTo speak of all this, we have decided<br \/>\nto dedicate this edition to women. We<br \/>\ndo not dedicate it to men (and there<br \/>\nwill be no edition dedicated to men),<br \/>\nbecause unfortunately, life has always<br \/>\nrevolved around the patriarchal, vertical<br \/>\nand phallocentric relationship that has<br \/>\nbeen imposed upon us. That edition<br \/>\ndedicated to men; it is the daily bread<br \/>\nof every mistreated and abused woman,<br \/>\nwho has been physically, emotionally,<br \/>\nand economically tortured. It\u2019s a matter<br \/>\nof consciousness, I suppose. Of course,<br \/>\nhere we applaud the equitable attitudes<br \/>\nof the millions of conscientious men who<br \/>\nprovide daily support for the struggles of<br \/>\nwomen through their attitudes. We do<br \/>\nnot wish to polarize, nor further divide<br \/>\na sufficiently fragmented world. We are<br \/>\nsimply trying to raise awareness about<br \/>\na pandemic issue that affects a large<br \/>\nquantity of the inhabitants of this planet:<br \/>\nviolence against women.<br \/>\nWe also applaud the attitudes of the<br \/>\ncollective Xela Female Consciousness,<br \/>\nsince they took action to speak on this<br \/>\nissue. The photographs that accompany<br \/>\nthis edition (from the cover) are part of<br \/>\nthe different works that this collective<br \/>\nhas created to send its message. A million<br \/>\nthanks to them; this edition really would<br \/>\nnot have been completed without you<br \/>\nand your courage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The same ink from the phrases used to denigrate other movements seems to be used for women who raise their voice: tomboy, bitch, whore.
