Was Hugo Schwyzer Sincere? | Clarissa's Blog
I think I now better understand how much Western feminism is a redemption through-moral-perfection narrative and why many had this love-hate relationship with Schwyzer. They want to be redeemed, so they are open to a messiah, but then they are also angry at the imperfections of the messiah. Perhaps he never really had the power to redeem them, as they had believed?
So much for feminism as a “movement”. I have better movements after my morning cups of coffee.
