Discussion: Valerie Solanas

Reading the SCUM Manifesto I went thru am incredible cycle of emotion. I smiled at the overwhelming beauty of her harshness...and still was filled with a sense of neccessary immediacy. I looked around the room and thought back countless years of my own life, remembered infinite instances in literature and history and so on and on and was able to nod in recognition and kinship with evry sentence and every sentiment. I can't sum up the book at all, and it's equally impossible for me to sum of the amazing womyn who wrote it and I'm feeling a bit frustrated that I am momentarily unable to end on a worthy note. I can only hope that this pushes a few more wimmin to read. And especially to read Valerie Solanas' SCUM Manifesto. I want them to be moved....and not in the text-book, traditional sense of the word...I want us to be physically moved. To get up and out and to attack....
"In actual fact the female function is to explore, discover, invent, solve problems, carck jokes, make music_all with love. In other words, creat a magic world"

Valerie Solanas is one idiot who blamed men to escape from her problems.

Valerie Solanas is the most intelligent writer and philosopher of all the history of the world.
All that Valerie has written is true, logical, realistic, and above all:"lucidly revolutionnary".
Valerie has given to me, the strenght to be alive, usefull, and rebel.

Thanks Valerie. I'll never forget you.

Love,

As I laugh men shutter. I see her brilliance and humor: Reality meeting outrage. A violent state of mind empowered beyond Ghandi "If all women left men...the national economy would collapse completely". Men who are repulsed by her writing are the very knuckle walkers she refers too.
