650 || revolutionary love

Josefin Hedlund rocked me with this mind-blowing article: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/transformation/revolutionary-love/ and I had to share it with you.

"Instead of seeing love as some mystical thing that just happens to us, we should follow Bell Hooks idea in All About Love and see love as a verb. It is a practice that we do, and that we have been socialized into doing differently along gender lines. Hooks points out how patriarchal capitalist society promotes love as dominating, competing and a 'property-style' care relationship. Men are of course best at practicing love in this way, and hooks is very skeptical of how manipulating and dominating is so intertwined with masculinity and heterosexual dynamics."
