| Subject: Funny: Feminists Vs PETA: Eating caged eggs won’t change PETA Mon Mar 03, 2014 3:10 am | |
| Audre Lorde, the great African-American lesbian feminist activist, once said the key to changing the culture of oppression was to not adopt the tactics of the oppressor:
"The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change."
This is advice that PETA, the animal rights group that everyone – but especially feminists – loves to hate, would do well to heed. PETA works within the existing patriarchal structure – the "master" – by relying on women's sexualised bodies to sell its animal rights message.
