Intensions Behind the "Feminist" Postcard

Hey everyone! So, I emailed the artist who created the postcard. He responded to my email yesterday. I basically asked him what his intentions were for creating the postcard. It's a shame he didn't put much effort in researching feminism before throwing the images and words together to create the postcard. Please read below and then let me know your thoughts.

Hi Monzong,

Thanks for the email.

Gosh that postcard for the feminist society is a few years back now.

My intent?

- question the impact of the "feminist" movement
- question the "need" of the feminist movement
- question the "stage" in history of the feminist movement.

It was a very last minute constructed postcard, i didn't have the luxury of research ect ect

I know it could be misconstrued / mis interpreted (one of the beauties of "art") - but the main idea came from assessment of feminism. Ive 3 sisters that rule the family.

Many of my friends wives earn more money than the man, female prime ministers are common.

The third contentious image, was meant to refer to : "for every germaine greer / frida kahlo - feminist - there will always be a girl in LA in a porn film"  - ironically get paid MORE than men in the industry.

But not that literal. - also that feminism has also created an alternative to feminism itself, Thinking back to the 60's, feminist movements sprung up, and alternating ideas

WHAT IS THE ROLE OF A WOMAN - why the need to specify it?>

and so...feminism would funnel some women to being more conservative and "self respectful" - and the some the other direction - i.e overtly sexual, promiscuous - like the pre conceived "male cliche"

i could go on and on, but thats the gist....

THanks for the email, discussion is always healthy
