Fed up with sexism; I can make my own
saskia de rooy
One of the main political parties in the Netherlands, the PvdA, now has a female front lady. Hopefully this will not make it loose votes. The other aspect of sexism at this time in history is that because I am a woman, my work is worth less than that of a man and it is taken less seriously. Perhaps this is the solution. You can find the pattern in the webshop. You need a plastic bag of a well known supermarket, pins and wool. A marker to copy, scissors to cut the parts out.
Yes, this is a cynical sculpture. No I am not against men, no, I am not against voluntary sex. Yes, I am happy to be a woman. But the deep-rooted sexism in our society with on top of it the ‘kut’ (cunt) everyone utters at every possible moment, wears me out. So with this no one can accuse me of a lack of anything, I can make as many as I want and I can even brag I have two!
