II. Pat Thompson's - In Bed With Procrustes

[Jessie]

2nd of Pat's Hestian Trilogy:  Her insights into how modern feminism took a quite different path, taking a share of patriarchal wealth, further marginalizing the meaning of home and family in it's "Flirtation with Patriarchy" (what really happened... one should note).    The truer feminism would be to re-elevate the archetypal roles of both women and men in caring for the living culture of the home instead, to resurrect the thriving of family culture as the foundation of all culture, as the Hestian approach does.

Pat offers a very nice introduction & prologue (Reframing the Household/State Relation) for In Bed With Procrustes, that I scanned and link here for reference.   

Isn't it surprising that "joining the system oppressing us" seemed like such an innocent thing to do at one time...!  :-)
