Just popping in to mention ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) demonista's excellent entry on post-modernism which is here and very worth reading. I actually feel much more opposed to post-modernism and queer theory after this weekend than I did before this weekend. I hadn't realised how thoroughly it screws women up. Especially young 'queer' women. I'm actually very angry at a lot of things after this weekend and I am trying to make sense of it all through writing a post. I'm having trouble writing it without being 'judgemental' though. But often I think 'judgementalism' is just an accusation hurled at feminists when they step out of patriarchal thinking. So I'm not going to let that deter me.
This weekend I also went to see The Jammed which I urge everyone to see. It is an Australian movie about sex trafficking in women. This movie made me cry so much and it still hasn't left me. It is really worth seeing if you can. Go here for an interview with the director and the lead actress. It is really annoying that they keep referring to sex trafficking as human trafficking but there are some extracts from the film.
