/lgbt/ - LGBT

I can't recommend Dialectic of Sex highly enough as a historical materialist exploration of many feminist issues.

Okay I am going to keep it short, you cant take transgenderism as part of materialism since like 99% of the people reject bio-essentialism and transgender medicalism, divorcing itself from the scientific method.

Just putting it up front, you might get along a lot more than you think with christians.

You have to do a lot of the legwork yourself as this isn't a topic that has a lot of work done in it. By that I mean you have to read libs and anarchists, sometimes socialists with subpar ideas and then figure out what parts can be re-framed with a Marxist lens.

It's helps to have a good foundation in Marxist philosophy.

Here are some recommended reading I've collected (not that I've read most of these from start to finish):
-The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State by Engels.
- Gender Accelerationist Manifesto
- Judith Butler, maybe Undoing Gender, or We need to rethink the category of woman
- Penis Envy and other feelings by Ruti
- heterosexualism and the colonial / modern gender system by Lugones
- towards a scientific analysis of the gay question , los Angeles research group

You are not the real marx

>>1168
Yes. I'm literally him. Engels and I had SÈX all the time.

>>1169
Liar, the real marx would have made like 15 gofundsme for alcohol already

Trangenderism isn't an ideology lad, shut the fuck up.

Hexbear has a great reading list on transfemenism, with queer marxism having its own section.

proletarian women and proletarian queers will be liberated along with all other proletarians as a matter of course in a revolution, and non-proletarian women and non-proletarian queers are not our concern

>>1357
of course being trans is not an ideology, doesnt mean this garbage thread isnt just peddling a bunch of unrelated ideology shit to communism lol. being trans and posting here is infuriating because everyone here is so fucking retarded and infuriatingly middle class

I haven't read any of them and there are some questionable things on the reading list that we don't support (anarchists, Parenti) but this looks good

There's no analytical tool feminism or "queer theory" can give you that science and materialism can't do on their own.

>-The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State by Engels.
Feminism is a mythological project built around an essentialized subject (“woman”) that has never existed as a coherent class. Engels wasn’t doing a heccin feminism. He was dismantling the family as a unit of private property and inheritance.

Read up on James Baldwin!
Look at American society from the lens of a queer person of color. The "gay MLK" as was known at the time

when marx was talking about materialism he was talking about being a smug new atheist reactoid ok

Practical feminist politics in the modern day seems to be entirely based on deciding whether or not and/or how often you throw vag to the moids.
