"Men expect women to adore what men shrink from in horror - themselves"

You can (directed to feminists) disagree with certain points expressed in the book but you cannot in good faith say that Solanas words aren't justified expressions of an opressed individual and declarations based on facts that aim for the progress of the female sex.
S.C.U.M. is a trascendental part of feminist history, more specially of radical feminist rethoric.

Incredibly philosophically naive and flawed, but damn if it’s not a hell of an enjoyable read!

4.5 for transphobia??? Idk. Review on my blog!

this was a terrifying & hilarious read — yet a very cathartic one. reading context around how it was published & who solanas actually is helped a lot. i guess everyone deals with trauma differently, and that was her outlet. pretty sure that me enjoying this kind of read is in direct correlation with how much i disliked the barbie movie.

Freaking brilliant. She had me at men are a walking abortion.

Read the copy with the foreword by Michelle Tea.
