by Valerie Solanas
Life in this society being, at best, an utter bore and no
aspect of society being at all relevant to women, there
remains to civic-minded, responsible, thrill-seeking
females only to overthrow the government, eliminate the
money system, institute complete automation and destroy the
male sex.
It is now technically possible to reproduce without the aid
of males (or, for that matter, females) and to produce only
females. We must begin immediately to do so. The male is a
biological accident: the y (male) gene is an incomplete x
(female) gene, that is, has an incomplete set of
chromosomes. In other words, the male is an incomplete
female, a walking abortion, aborted at the gene stage. To
be male is to be deficient, emotionally limited; maleness
is a deficiency disease and males are emotional cripples.
The male is completely egocentric, trapped inside himself,
incapable of empathizing or identifying with others, of
love, friendship, affection or tenderness. He is a
completely isolated unit, incapable of rapport with anyone.
His responses are entirely visceral, not cerebral; his
intelligence is a mere tool in the service of his drives
and needs; he is incapable of mental passion, mental
interaction; he can't relate to anything other than his own
physical sensations. He is a half dead, unresponsive lump,
incapable of giving or receiving pleasure or happiness;
consequently, he is at best an utter bore, an inoffensive
blob, since only those capable of absorption in others can
be charming. He is trapped in a twilight zone halfway
between humans and apes, and is far worse off than the apes
because, unlike the apes, he is capable of a large array of
negative feelings--hate, jealousy, contempt, disgust,
guilt, shame, doubt--and moreover he is aware or
what he is or isn't. Although completely physical, the male
is unfit even for stud service. Even assuming mechanical
proficiency, which few men have, he is, first of all,
incapable of zestfully, lustfully, tearing off a piece, but
is instead eaten up with guilt, shame, fear and insecurity,
feelings rooted in male nature, which the most enlightened
training can only minimize; second, the physical feeling he
attains is next to nothing; and, third, he is not
empathizing with his partner, but is obsessed with how he's
doing, turning in an A performance, doing a good plumbing
job. To call a man an animal is to flatter him; he's a
machine, a walking dildo. It's often said that men use
women. Use them for what? Surely not pleasure. Eaten up
with guilt, shame, fears and insecurities and obtaining, if
he's lucky, a barely perceptible physical feeling, the male
is, nonetheless, obsessed with screwing; he'll swim a river
of snot, wade nostril-deep through a mile of vomit, if he
thinks there'll be a friendly pussy awaiting him. He'll
screw a woman he despises, any snaggle-toothed hag, and,
furthermore, pay for the opportunity. Why? Relieving
physical tension isn't the answer, as masturbation suffices
for that. It's not ego satisfaction; that doesn't explain
screwing corpses and babies. Completely egocentric, unable
to relate, empathize or identify, and filled with a vast,
pervasive, diffuse sexuality, the male is psychically
passive. He hates his passivity, so he projects it onto
women, defines the male as active, then sets out to prove
that he is ("prove he's a Man"). His main means of
attempting to prove it is screwing (Big Man with a Big Dick
tearing off a Big Piece). Since he's attempting to prove an
error, he must "prove" it again and again. Screwing, then,
is a desperate, compulsive attempt to prove he's not
passive, not a woman; but he is passive and
does want to be a woman. Being an incomplete female,
the male spends his life attempting to complete himself, to
become female. He attempts to do this by constantly seeking
out, fraternizing with and trying to live through and fuse
with the female, and by claiming as his own all female
characteristics--emotional strength and independence,
forcefulness, dynamism, decisiveness, coolness,
objectivity, assertiveness, courage, integrity, vitality,
intensity, depth of character, grooviness, etc. --and
projecting onto women all male traits--vanity, frivolity,
triviality, weakness, etc. It should be said, though, that
the male has one glaring area of superiority over the
female--public relations. (He has done a brilliant job of
convincing millions of women that men are women and women
are men.) The male claim that females find fulfillment
through motherhood and sexuality reflects what males think
they'd find fulfilling if they were female. Women, in other
words, don't have penis envy; men have pussy envy. When the
male accepts his passivity, defines himself as a woman
(males as well as females think men are women and women are
men), and becomes a transvestite he loses his desire to
screw (or to do anything else, for that matter; he fulfills
himself as a drag queen) and gets his cock chopped off. He
then achieves a continuous diffuse sexual feeling from
"being a woman". Screwing is, for a man, a defense against
his desire to be female. Sex is itself a sublimation. The
male, because of his obsession to compensate for not being
female combined with his inability to relate and to feel
compassion, has made of the world a shitpile. He is
responsible for: War: The male's normal method of
compensation for not being female, namely, getting his Big
Gun off, is grossly inadequate, as he can get it off only a
very limited number of times; so he gets it off on a really
massive scale, and proves to the entire world that he's a
"Man". Since he has no compassion or ability to empathize
or identify, proving his manhood is worth an endless number
of lives, including his own--his own life being worthless,
he would rather go out in a blaze of glory than plod grimly
on for fifty more years. Niceness, Politeness and
"Dignity": Every man, deep down, knows he's a worthless
piece of shit. Overwhelmed by a sense of animalism and
deeply ashamed of it; wanting, not to express himself, but
to hide from others his total physicality, total
egocentricity, the hate and contempt he feels for other
men, and to hide from himself the hate and contempt he
suspects other men feel for him; having a crudely
constructed nervous system that is easily upset by the
least display of emotion or feeling, the male tries to
enforce a "social" code that ensures a perfect blandness,
unsullied by the slightest trace of feeling or upsetting
opinion. He uses terms like "copulate", "sexual congress",
"have relations with" (to men, "sexual relations" is
a redundancy), overlaid with stilted manners; the suit on
the chimp. Money, Marriage and Prostitution, Work and
Prevention of an Automated Society: There is no human
reason for money or for anyone to work more than two or
three hours a week at the very most. All non-creative jobs
(practically all jobs now being done) could have been
automated long ago, and in a moneyless society everyone can
have as much of the best of everything as she wants. But
there are non-human, male reasons for maintaining the
money-work system: 1. Pussy. Despising his highly
inadequate self, overcome with intense anxiety and a deep,
profound loneliness when by his empty self, desperate to
attach himself to any female in dim hopes of completing
himself, in the mystical belief that by touching gold he'll
turn to gold, the male craves the continuous companionship
of women. The company of the lowest female is preferable to
his own or that of other men, who serve only to remind him
of his repulsiveness. But females, unless very young or
very sick, must be coerced or bribed into male company. 2.
Supply the non-relating male with the delusion of
usefulness, and enable him to try to justify his existence
by digging holes and filling them up. Leisure time
horrifies the male, who will have nothing to do but
contemplate his grotesque self. Unable to relate or to
love, the male must work. Females crave absorbing,
emotionally satisfying, meaningful activity, but lacking
the opportunity or ability for this, they prefer to idle
and waste away their time in ways of their own
choosing--sleeping, shopping, bowling, shooting pool,
playing cards and other games, breeding, reading, walking
around, daydreaming, eating, playing with themselves,
popping pills, going to the movies, getting analyzed,
traveling, raising dogs and cats, lolling on the beach,
swimming, watching T.V., listening to music, decorating
their houses, gardening, sewing, nightclubbing, dancing,
visiting, "improving their minds" (taking courses), and
absorbing "culture" (lectures, plays, concerts, "arty"
movies). Therefore, many females would, even assuming
complete economic equality between the sexes, prefer living
with males or peddling their asses on the street, thus
having most of their time for themselves, to spending many
hours of their days doing boring, stultifying, non-creative
work for somebody else, functioning as less than animals,
as machines, or, at best,--if able to get a "good"
job--co-managing the shitpile. What will liberate women,
therefore, from male control is the total elimination of
the money-work system, not the attainment of economic
equality with men within it. 3. Power and control.
Unmasterful in his personal relations with women, the male
attains to general masterfulness by the manipulation of
money and of everything and everybody controlled by money,
in other words, of everything and everybody. 4. Love
substitute. Unable to give love or affection, the male
gives money. It makes him feel motherly. The mother gives
milk; he gives bread. He is the Breadwinner. 5. Provides
the male with a goal. Incapable of enjoying the moment, the
male needs something to look forward to, and money provides
him with an eternal, never-ending goal: Just think what you
could do with 80 trillion dollars--Invest it! And in three
years time you'd have 300 trillion dollars!!! 6. Provides
the basis for the male's major opportunity to control and
manipulate--fatherhood. Fatherhood and Mental Illness
(fear, cowardice, timidity, humility, insecurity,
passivity): Mother wants what's best for her kids;
Daddy only wants what's best for Daddy, that is peace and
quiet, pandering to his delusion of dignity ("respect"), a
good reflection on himself (status) and the opportunity to
control and manipulate, or, if he's an "enlightened"
father, to "give guidance". His daughter, in addition, he
wants sexually--he gives her hand in marriage; the
other part is for him. Daddy, unlike Mother, can never give
in to his kids, as he must, at all costs, preserve his
delusion of decisiveness, forcefulness, always-rightness
and strength. Never getting one's way leads to lack of
self-confidence in one's ability to cope with the world and
to a passive acceptance of the status quo. Mother loves her
kids, although she sometimes gets angry, but anger blows
over quickly and even while it exists, doesn't preclude
love and basic acceptance. Emotionally diseased Daddy
doesn't love his kids; he approves of them--if they're
"good", that is, if they're nice, "respectful", obedient,
subservient to his will, quiet and not given to unseemly
displays of temper that would be most upsetting to Daddy's
easily disturbed male nervous system--in other words, if
they're passive vegetables. If they're not "good", he
doesn't get angry--not if he's a modern, "civilized" father
(the old-fashioned ranting, raving brute is preferable, as
he is so ridiculous he can be easily despised)--but rather
expresses disapproval, a state that, unlike anger, endures
and precludes a basic acceptance, leaving the kid with a
feeling of worthlessness and a lifelong obsession with
being approved of; the result is fear of independent
thought, as this leads to unconventional, disapproved of
opinions and way of life. For the kid to want Daddy's
approval it must respect Daddy, and, being garbage, Daddy
can make sure that he is respected only by remaining aloof,
by distantness, by acting on the precept "familiarity
breeds contempt", which is, of course, true, if one is
contemptible. By being distant and aloof, he is able to
remain unknown, mysterious, and, thereby, to inspire fear
("respect"). Disapproval of emotional "scenes" leads to
fear of strong emotion, fear of one's own anger and hatred,
and to a fear of facing reality, as facing it leads at
first to anger and hatred. Fear of anger and hatred
combined with a lack of self-confidence in one's ability to
cope with and change the world, or even to affect in the
slightest way one's own destiny, leads to a mindless belief
that the world and most people in it are nice and that the
most banal, trivial amusements are great fun and deeply
pleasurable. The effect of fatherhood on males,
specifically, is to make them "Men", that is, highly
defensive of all impulses to passivity, faggotry, and of
desires to be female. Every boy wants to imitate his
mother, be her, fuse with her, but Daddy forbids this;
he is the mother; he gets to fuse with her.
So he tells the boy, sometimes directly, sometimes
indirectly, to not be a sissy, to act like a "Man". The
boy, scared shitless of and "respecting" his father,
complies, and becomes just like Daddy, that model of
"Man"-hood, the all-American ideal--the well-behaved
heterosexual dullard. The effect of fatherhood on females
is to make them male--dependent, passive, domestic,
animalistic, nice, insecure, approval and security seekers,
cowardly, humble, "respectful" of authorities and men,
closed, not fully responsive, half dead, trivial, dull,
conventional, flattened out and thoroughly contemptible.
Daddy's Girl, always tense and fearful, uncool,
unanalytical, lacking objectivity, appraises Daddy, and
thereafter, other men, against a background of fear
("respect") and is not only unable to see the empty shell
behind the aloof facade, but accepts the male definition of
himself as superior, as a female, and of herself, as
inferior, as a male, which, thanks to Daddy, she really is.
It is the increase of fatherhood, resulting from the
increased and widespread affluence that fatherhood needs in
order to thrive, that has caused the general increase of
mindlessness and the decline of women in the United States
since the 1920s. The close association of affluence with
fatherhood has led, for the most part, to only the wrong
girls, namely, the "privileged" middle-class girls, getting
"educated". The effect of fathers, in sum, has been to
corrode the world with maleness. The male has a negative
Midas touch--everything he touches turns to shit.
Suppression of Individuality, Animalism (domesticity and
motherhood) and Functionalism: The male is just a
bundle of conditioned reflexes, incapable of a mentally
free response; he is tied to his early conditioning,
determined completely by his past experiences. His earliest
experiences are with his mother, and he is throughout his
life tied to her. It never becomes completely clear to the
male that he is not part of his mother, that he is he and
she is she. His greatest need is to be guided, sheltered,
protected and admired by Mama (men expect women to adore
what men shrink from in horror--themselves) and, being
completely physical, he yearns to spend his time (that's
not spent "out in the world" grimly defending against his
passivity) wallowing in basic animal activities--eating,
sleeping, shitting, relaxing and being soothed by Mama.
Passive, rattle-headed Daddy's Girl, ever eager for
approval, for a pat on the head, for the "respect" of any
passing piece of garbage, is easily reduced to Mama,
mindless ministrator to physical needs, soother of the
weary, apey brow, booster of the puny ego, appreciator of
the contemptible, a hot water bottle with tits. The
reduction to animals of the women of the most backward
segment of society--the "privileged, educated"
middle-class, the backwash of humanity--where Daddy reigns
supreme, has been so thorough that they try to groove on
labor pains and lie around in the most advanced nation in
the world in the middle of the twentieth century with
babies chomping away on their tits. It's not for the kids'
sake, though, that the "experts" tell women that Mama
should stay home and grovel in animalism, but for Daddy's;
the tit's for Daddy to hang onto; the labor pains for Daddy
to vicariously groove on (half dead, he needs awfully
strong stimuli to make him respond). Reducing the female to
an animal, to Mama, to a male, is necessary for
psychological as well as practical reasons: the male is a
mere member of the species, interchangeable with every
other male. He has no deep-seated individuality, which
stems from what intrigues you, what outside yourself
absorbs you, what you're in relation to. Completely
self-absorbed, capable of being in relation only to their
bodies and physical sensations, males differ from each
other only to the degree and in the ways they attempt to
defend against their passivity and against their desire to
be female. The female's individuality, which he is acutely
aware of, but which he doesn't comprehend and isn't capable
of relating to or grasping emotionally, frightens and
upsets him and fills him with envy. So he denies it in her
and proceeds to define everyone in terms of his or her
function or use, assigning to himself, of course, the most
important functions--doctor, president, scientist--thereby
providing himself with an identity, if not individuality,
and tries to convince himself and women (he's succeeded
best at convincing women) that the female function is to
bear and raise children and to relax, comfort and boost the
ego of the male; that her function is such as to make her
interchangeable with every other female. In actual fact,
the female function is to relate, groove, love and be
herself, irreplaceable by anyone else; the male function is
to produce sperm. We now have sperm banks. Prevention of
Privacy: Although the male, being ashamed of what he is
and of almost everything he does, insists on privacy and
secrecy in all aspects of his life, he has no real
regard for privacy. Being empty, not being a
complete, separate being, having no self to groove on and
needing to be constantly in female company, he sees nothing
at all wrong in intruding himself on any woman's thoughts,
even a total stranger's, anywhere at any time, but rather
feels indignant and insulted when put down for doing so, as
well as confused--he can't, for the life of him, understand
why anyone would prefer so much as one minute of solitude
to the company of any creep around. Wanting to become a
woman, he strives to be constantly around females, which is
the closest he can get to becoming one, so he created a
"society" based on the family--a male-female couple and
their kids (the excuse for the family's existence), who
live virtually on top of one another, unscrupulously
violating the females' rights, privacy and sanity.
Isolation, Suburbs and Prevention of Community: Our
society is not a community, but merely a collection of
isolated family units. Desperately insecure, fearing his
woman will leave him if she is exposed to other men or to
anything remotely resembling life, the male seeks to
isolate her from other men and from what little
civilization there is, so he moves her out to the suburbs,
a collection of self-absorbed couples and their kids.
Isolation enables him to try to maintain his pretense of
being an individual by becoming a "rugged individualist", a
loner, equating non-co-operation and solitariness with
individuality. There is yet another reason for the male to
isolate himself: every man is an island. Trapped inside
himself, emotionally isolated, unable to relate, the male
has a horror of civilization, people, cities, situations
requiring an ability to understand and relate to people.
So, like a scared rabbit, he scurries off, dragging Daddy's
little asshole along with him to the wilderness, the
suburbs, or, in the case of the "hippie"--he's way out,
Man! --all the way out to the cow pasture where he can fuck
and breed undisturbed and mess around with his beads and
flute. The "hippie", whose desire to be a "Man", a "rugged
individualist", isn't quite as strong as the average man's,
and who, in addition, is excited by the thought of having
lots of women accessible to him, rebels against the
harshness of a Breadwinner's life and the monotony of one
woman. In the name of sharing and co-operation, he forms
the commune or tribe, which, for all its togetherness and
partly because of it (the commune, being an extended
family, is an extended violation of the females' rights,
privacy and sanity) is no more a community than normal
"society". A true community consists of individuals--not
mere species members, not couples--respecting each other's
individuality and privacy, at the same time interacting
with each other mentally and emotionally--free spirits in
free relation to each other-and co-operating with each
other to achieve common ends. Traditionalists say the basic
unit of "society" is the family; "hippies" say the tribe;
no one says the individual. The "hippie" babbles on about
individuality, but has no more conception of it than any
other man. He desires to get back to Nature, back to the
wilderness, back to the home of the furry animals that he's
one of, away from the city, where there is at least a
trace, a bare beginning of civilization, to live at the
species level, his time taken up with simple,
non-intellectual activities--farming, fucking, bead
stringing. The most important activity of the commune, the
one on which it is based, is gangbanging. The "hippie" is
enticed to the commune mainly by the prospect of all the
free pussy--the main commodity to be shared, to be had just
for the asking but, blinded by greed, he fails to
anticipate all the other men he has to share with, or the
jealousies and possessiveness of the pussies themselves.
Men cannot co-operate to achieve a common end, because each
man's end is all the pussy for himself. The commune,
therefore, is doomed to failure: each "hippie" will, in
panic, grab the first simpleton who digs him and whisk her
off to the suburbs as fast as he can. The male cannot
progress socially, but merely swings back and forth from
isolation to gangbanging. Conformity: Although he
wants to be an individual, the male is scared of anything
in himself that is the slightest bit different from other
men; it causes him to suspect that he's not really a "Man",
that he's passive and totally sexual, a highly upsetting
suspicion. If other men are A and he's not, he must not be
a man; he must be a fag. So he tries to affirm his
"Manhood" by being like all the other men. Differentness in
other men, as well as in himself, threatens him; it means
they're fags whom he must at all costs avoid, so he tries
to make sure that all other men conform. The male dares to
be different to the degree that he accepts his passivity
and his desire to be female, his fagginess. The farthest
out male is the drag queen, but he, although different from
most men, is exactly like all other drag queens; like the
functionalist, he has an identity--he is a female. He tries
to define all his troubles away--but still no
individuality. Not completely convinced that he's a woman,
highly insecure about being sufficiently female, he
conforms compulsively to the man-made feminine stereotype,
ending up as nothing but a bundle of stilted mannerisms. To
be sure he's a "Man", the male must see to it that the
female be clearly a "Woman", the opposite of a "Man", that
is, the female must act like a faggot. And Daddy's Girl,
all of whose female instincts were wrenched out of her when
little, easily and obligingly adapts herself to the role.
Authority and Government: Having no sense of right
or wrong, no conscience, which can only stem from an
ability to empathize with others...having no faith in his
non-existent self, being necessarily competitive and, by
nature, unable to co-operate, the male feels a need for
external guidance and control. So he created
authorities--priests, experts, bosses, leaders, etc. --and
government. Wanting the female (Mama) to guide him, but
unable to accept this fact (he is, after all, a
MAN), wanting to play Woman, to usurp her function
as Guider and Protector, he sees to it that all authorities
are male. There's no reason why a society consisting of
rational beings capable of empathizing with each other,
complete and having no natural reason to compete, should
have a government, laws or leaders. Philosophy, Religion
and Morality Based on Sex: The male's inability to
relate to anybody or anything makes his life pointless and
meaningless (the ultimate male insight is that life is
absurd), so he invented philosophy and religion. Being
empty, he looks outward, not only for guidance and control,
but for salvation and for the meaning of life. Happiness
being for him impossible on this earth, he invented Heaven.
For a man, having no ability to empathize with others and
being totally sexual, "wrong" is sexual "license" and
engaging in "deviant" ("unmanly") sexual practices, that
is, not defending against his passivity and total sexuality
which, if indulged, would destroy "civilization", since
"civilization" is based entirely on the male need to defend
himself against these characteristics. For a woman
(according to men), "wrong" is any behavior that would
entice men into sexual "license"--that is, not placing male
needs above her own and not being a faggot. Religion not
only provides the male with a goal (Heaven) and helps keep
women tied to men, but offers rituals through which he can
try to expiate the guilt and shame he feels at not
defending himself enough against his sexual impulses; in
essence, that guilt and shame he feels at being a male.
Most men, utterly cowardly, project their inherent
weaknesses onto women, label them female weaknesses and
believe themselves to have female strengths; most
philosophers, not quite so cowardly, face the fact that
male lacks exist in men, but still can't face the fact that
they exist in men only. So they label the male condition
the Human Condition, pose their nothingness problem, which
horrifies them, as a philosophical dilemma, thereby giving
stature to their animalism, grandiloquently label their
nothingness their "Identity Problem", and proceed to
prattle on pompously about the "Crisis of the Individual",
the "Essence of Being", "Existence preceding Essence",
"Existential Modes of Being", etc., etc. A woman not only
takes her identity and individuality for granted, but knows
instinctively that the only wrong is to hurt others, and
that the meaning of life is love. Prejudice (racial,
ethnic, religious, etc.): The male needs scapegoats
onto whom he can project his failings and inadequacies and
upon whom he can vent his frustration at not being female.
Competition, Prestige, Status, Formal Education,
Ignorance and Social and Economic Classes: Having an
obsessive desire to be admired by women, but no intrinsic
worth, the male constructs a highly artificial society
enabling him to appropriate the appearance of worth through
money, prestige, "high" social class, degrees, professional
position and knowledge and, by pushing as many other men as
possible down professionally, socially, economically, and
educationally. The purpose of "higher" education is not to
educate but to exclude as many as possible from the various
professions. The male, totally physical, incapable of
mental rapport, although able to understand and use
knowledge and ideas, is unable to relate to them, to grasp
them emotionally; he does not value knowledge and ideas for
their own sake (they're just means to ends) and,
consequently, feels no need for mental companions, no need
to cultivate the intellectual potentialities of others. On
the contrary, the male has a vested interest in ignorance;
he knows that an enlightened, aware female population will
mean the end of him. The healthy, conceited female wants
the company of equals whom she can respect and groove on;
the male and the sick, insecure, unself-confident male
female crave the company of worms. No genuine social
revolution can be accomplished by the male, as the male on
top wants the status quo, and all the male on the bottom
wants is to be the male on top. The male "rebel" is a
farce; this is the male's "society", made by him to
satisfy his needs. He's never satisfied, because
he's not capable of being satisfied. Ultimately, what the
male "rebel" is rebelling against is being male. The male
changes only when forced to do so by technology, when he
has no choice, when "society" reaches the stage where he
must change or die. We're at that stage now; if women don't
get their asses in gear fast, we may very well all die.
Prevention of Conversation: Being completely
self-centered and unable to relate to anything outside
himself, the male's "conversation", when not about himself,
is an impersonal droning on, removed from anything of human
value. Male "intellectual conversation" is a strained,
compulsive attempt to impress the female. Daddy's Girl,
passive, adaptable, respectful of and in awe of the male,
allows him to impose his hideously dull chatter on her.
This is not too difficult for her, as the tension and
anxiety, the lack of cool, the insecurity and self-doubt,
the unsureness of her own feelings and sensations that
Daddy instilled in her make her perceptions superficial and
render her unable to see that the male's babble is a
babble; like the aesthete "appreciating" the blob that's
labeled "Great Art", she believes she's grooving on what
bores the shit out of her. Not only does she permit his
babble to dominate, she adapts her own "conversation"
accordingly. Trained from early childhood in niceness,
politeness and "dignity", in pandering to the male need to
disguise his animalism, she obligingly reduces her
"conversation" to small talk, a bland insipid avoidance of
any topic beyond the utterly trivial--or, if "educated", to
"intellectual" discussion, that is, impersonal discoursing
on irrelevant abstractions--the Gross National Product, the
Common Market, the influence of Rimbaud on symbolist
painting. So adept is she at pandering that it eventually
becomes second nature and she continues to pander to men
even when in the company of other females only. Apart from
pandering, her "conversation" is further limited by her
insecurity about expressing deviant, original opinions and
the self-absorption based on insecurity and that prevents
her conversation from being charming. Niceness, politeness,
"dignity", insecurity and self-absorption are hardly
conducive to intensity and wit, qualities a conversation
must have to be worthy of the name. Such conversation is
hardly rampant, as only completely self-confident,
arrogant, outgoing, proud, tough-minded females are capable
of intense, bitchy, witty conversation. Prevention of
Friendship (Love): Men have contempt for themselves,
for all other men, and for all women who respect and pander
to them; the insecure, approval-seeking, pandering male
females have contempt for themselves and for all women like
them; the self-confident, swinging, thrill-seeking female
females have contempt for men and for the pandering male
females. In short, contempt is the order of the day. Love
is not dependency or sex, but friendship, and, therefore,
love can't exist between two males, between a male and a
female or between two females, one or both of whom is a
mindless, insecure, pandering male; like conversation, love
can exist only between two secure, free-wheeling,
independent, groovy female females, since friendship is
based on respect, not contempt. Even among groovy females
deep friendships seldom occur in adulthood, as almost all
of them are either tied up with men in order to survive
economically, or bogged down in hacking their way through
the jungle and in trying to keep their heads above the
amorphous mass. Love can't flourish in a society based on
money and meaningless work; it requires complete economic
as well as personal freedom, leisure time and the
opportunity to engage in intensely absorbing, emotionally
satisfying activities which, when shared with those you
respect, lead to deep friendship. Our "society" provides
practically no opportunity to engage in such activities.
Having stripped the world of conversation, friendship and
love, the male offers us these paltry substitutes:
"Great Art" and "Culture": The male "artist"
attempts to solve his dilemma of not being able to live, of
not being female, by constructing a highly artificial world
in which the male is heroized, that is, displays female
traits, and the female is reduced to highly limited,
insipid subordinate roles, that is, to being male. The male
"artistic" aim being, not to communicate (having nothing
inside him, he has nothing to say), but to disguise his
animalism, he resorts to symbolism and obscurity ("deep"
stuff). The vast majority of people, particularly the
"educated" ones, lacking faith in their own judgment,
humble, respectful of authority ("Daddy knows best" is
translated into adult language as "Critic knows best",
"Writer knows best", "Ph.D knows best"), are easily conned
into believing that obscurity, evasiveness,
incomprehensibility, indirectness, ambiguity and boredom
are marks of depth and brilliance. "Great Art" proves that
men are superior to women, that men are women, being
labeled "Great Art", almost all of which, as the
anti-feminists are fond of reminding us, was created by
men. We know that "Great Art" is great because male
authorities have told us so, and we can't claim otherwise,
as only those with exquisite sensitivities far superior to
ours can perceive and appreciate the greatness, the proof
of their superior sensitivity being that they appreciate
the slop that they appreciate. Appreciating is the sole
diversion of the "cultivated"; passive and incompetent,
lacking imagination and wit, they must try to make do with
that; unable to create their own diversions, to create a
little world of their own, to affect in the smallest way
their environments, they must accept what's given; unable
to create or relate, they spectate. Absorbing "culture" is
a desperate, frantic attempt to groove in an ungroovy
world, to escape the horror of a sterile, mindless
existence. "Culture" provides a sop to the egos of the
incompetent, a means of rationalizing passive spectating;
they can pride themselves on their ability to appreciate
the "finer" things, to see a jewel where there is only a
turd (they want to be admired for admiring). Lacking faith
in their ability to change anything, resigned to the status
quo, they have to see beauty in turds because, so far as
they can see, turds are all they'll ever have. The
veneration of "Art" and "Culture"--besides leading many
women into boring, passive activity that distracts from
more important and rewarding activities, from cultivating
active abilities--allows the "artist" to be set up as one
possessing superior feelings, perceptions, insights and
judgments, thereby undermining the faith of insecure women
in the value and validity of their own feelings,
perceptions, insights and judgments. The male, having a
very limited range of feelings and, consequently, very
limited perceptions, insights and judgments, needs the
"artist" to guide him, to tell him what life is all about.
But the male "artist", being totally sexual, unable to
relate to anything beyond his own physical sensations,
having nothing to express beyond the insight that for the
male life is meaningless and absurd, cannot be an artist.
How can he who is not capable of life tell us what life is
all about? A "male artist" is a contradiction in terms. A
degenerate can only produce degenerate "art". The true
artist is every self-confident, healthy female, and in a
female society the only Art, the only Culture, will be
conceited, kookie, funky females grooving on each other and
on everything else in the universe. Sexuality: Sex
is not part of a relationship; on the contrary, it is a
solitary experience, non-creative, a gross waste of time.
The female can easily--far more easily than she may
think--condition away her sex drive, leaving her completely
cool and cerebral and free to pursue truly worthy
relationships and activities; but the male, who seems to
dig women sexually and who seeks constantly to arouse them,
stimulates the highly-sexed female to frenzies of lust,
throwing her into a sex bag from which few women ever
escape. The lecherous male excited the lustful female; he
has to--when the female transcends her body, rises above
animalism, the male, whose ego consists of his cock, will
disappear. Sex is the refuge of the mindless. And the more
mindless the woman, the more deeply embedded in the male
"culture", in short, the nicer she is, the more sexual she
is. The nicest women in our "society" are raving sex
maniacs. But, being just awfully, awfully nice they don't,
of course, descend to fucking--that's uncouth--rather they
make love, commune by means of their bodies and establish
sensual rapport; the literary ones are attuned to the throb
of Eros and attain a clutch upon the Universe; the
religious have spiritual communion with the Divine
Sensualism; the mystics merge with the Erotic Principle and
blend with the Cosmos, and the acid heads contact their
erotic cells. On the other hand, those females least
embedded in the male "Culture", the least nice, those crass
and simple souls who reduce fucking to fucking, who are too
childish for the grown-up world of suburbs, mortgages, mops
and baby shit, too selfish to raise kids and husbands, too
uncivilized to give a shit for anyone's opinion of them,
too arrogant to respect Daddy, the "Greats" or the deep
wisdom of the Ancients, who trust only their own animal,
gutter instincts, who equate Culture with chicks, whose
sole diversion is prowling for emotional thrills and
excitement, who are given to disgusting, nasty, upsetting
"scenes", hateful, violent bitches given to slamming those
who unduly irritate them in the teeth, who'd sink a shiv
into a man's chest or ram an icepick up his asshole as soon
as look at him, if they knew they could get away with it,
in short, those who, by the standards of our "culture" are
SCUM...these females are cool and relatively cerebral and
skirting asexuality. Unhampered by propriety, niceness,
discretion, public opinion, "morals", the "respect" of
assholes, always funky, dirty, low-down SCUM gets
around...and around and around...they've seen the whole
show--every bit of it-the fucking scene, the sucking scene,
the dyke scene--they've covered the whole waterfront, been
under every dock and pier--the peter pier, the pussy
pier...you've got to go through a lot of sex to get to
anti-sex, and SCUM's been through it all, and they're now
ready for a new show; they want to crawl out from under the
dock, move, take off, sink out. But SCUM doesn't yet
prevail; SCUM's still in the gutter of our "society",
which, if it's not deflected from its present course and if
the Bomb doesn't drop on it, will hump itself to death.
Boredom: Life in a "society" made by and for
creatures who, when they are not grim and depressing are
utter bores, can only be, when not grim and depressing, an
utter bore. Secrecy, Censorship, Suppression of
Knowledge and Ideas, and Exposes: Every male's
deep-seated, secret, most hideous fear is the fear of being
discovered to be not a female, but a male, a subhuman
animal. Although niceness, politeness and "dignity" suffice
to prevent his exposure on a personal level, in order to
prevent the general exposure of the male sex as a whole and
to maintain his unnatural dominant position in "society",
the male must resort to: 1. Censorship. Responding
reflexively to isolated words and phrases rather than
cerebrally to overall meanings, the male attempts to
prevent the arousal and discovery of his animalism by
censoring not only "pornography", but any work containing
"dirty" words, no matter in what context they are used. 2.
Suppression of all ideas and knowledge that might expose
him or threaten his dominant position in "society". Much
biological and psychological data is suppressed, because it
is proof of the male's gross inferiority to the female.
Also, the problem of mental illness will never be solved
while the male maintains control, because first, men have a
vested interest in it--only females who have very few of
their marbles will allow males the slightest bit of control
over anything, and second, the male cannot admit to the
role that fatherhood plays in causing mental illness. 3.
Exposes. The male's chief delight in life--insofar as the
dense, grim male can ever be said to delight in
anything--is in exposing others. It doesn't much matter
what they're exposed as, so long as they're exposed; it
distracts attention from himself. Exposing others as enemy
agents (Communists and Socialists) is one of his favorite
pastimes, as it removes the source of the threat to him not
only from himself, but from the country and the Western
world. The bugs up his ass aren't in him; they're in
Russia. Distrust: Unable to empathize or feel
affection or loyalty, being exclusively out for himself,
the male has no sense of fair play; cowardly, needing
constantly to pander to the female to win her approval,
that he is helpless without, always on edge lest his
animalism, his maleness be discovered, always needing to
cover up, he must lie constantly; being empty, he has no
honor or integrity--he doesn't know what those words mean.
The male, in short, is treacherous, and the only
appropriate attitude in a male "society" is cynicism and
distrust. Ugliness: Being totally sexual, incapable
of cerebral or aesthetic responses, totally materialistic
and greedy, the male, besides inflicting on the world
"Great Art", has decorated his unlandscaped cities with
ugly buildings (both inside and out), ugly decors,
billboards, highways, cars, garbage trucks and, most
notably, his own putrid self. Hate and Violence: The
male is eaten up with tension, with frustration at not
being female, at not being capable of ever achieving
satisfaction or pleasure of any kind; eaten up with
hate--not rational hate that is directed against those who
abuse or insult you--but irrational, indiscriminate
hate...hatred, at bottom, of his own worthless self.
Violence serves as an outlet for his hate and, in
addition--the male being capable only of sexual responses
and needing very strong stimuli to stimulate his half-dead
self--provides him with a little sexual thrill. Disease
and Death: All diseases are curable, and the aging
process and death are due to disease; it is possible,
therefore, never to age and to live forever. In fact, the
problems of aging and death could be solved within a few
years, if an all-out, massive scientific assault were made
on the problem. This, however, will not occur within the
male establishment, because: 1. The many male scientists
who shy away from biological research, terrified of the
discovery that males are females, and show marked
preference for virile, "manly" war and death programs. 2.
The discouragement of many potential scientists from
scientific careers by the rigidity, boringness,
expensiveness, time-consumingness and unfair exclusivity of
our "higher" educational system. 3. Propaganda disseminated
by insecure male professionals, who jealously guard their
positions, so that only a highly select few can comprehend
abstract scientific concepts. 4. Widespread lack of
self-confidence brought about by the father system that
discourages many talented girls from becoming scientists.
5. Lack of automation. There now exists a wealth of data
which, if sorted out and correlated, would reveal the cure
for cancer and several other diseases and possibly the key
to life itself. But the data is so massive it requires high
speed computers to correlate it all. The institution of
computers will be delayed interminably under the male
control system, since the male has a horror of being
replaced by machines. 6. The money system's insatiable need
for new products. Most of the few scientists around who
aren't working on death programs are tied up doing research
for corporations. 7. The male likes death--it excites him
sexually and, already dead inside, he wants to die.
Incapable of a positive state of happiness, which is the
only thing that can justify one's existence, the male is,
at best, relaxed, comfortable, neutral, and this condition
is extremely short-lived, as boredom, a negative state,
soon sets in; he is, therefore, doomed to an existence of
suffering relieved only by occasional, fleeting stretches
of restfulness, which state he can achieve only at the
expense of some female. The male is, by his very nature, a
leech, an emotional parasite and, therefore, not ethically
entitled to live, as no one has the right to live at
someone else's expense. Just as humans have a prior right
to existence over dogs by virtue of being more highly
evolved and having a superior consciousness, so women have
a prior right to existence over men. The elimination of any
male is, therefore, a righteous and good act, an act highly
beneficial to women as well as an act of mercy. However,
this moral issue will eventually be rendered academic by
the fact that the male is gradually eliminating himself. In
addition to engaging in the time-honored and classical wars
and race riots, men are more and more either becoming fags
or are obliterating themselves through drugs. The female,
whether she likes it or not, will eventually take complete
charge, if for no other reason than that she will have
to--the male, for practical purposes, won't exist.
Accelerating this trend is the fact that more and more
males are acquiring enlightened self-interest; they're
realizing more and more that the female interest is
their interest, that they can live only through the
female and that the more the female is encouraged to live,
to fulfill herself, to be a female and not a male, the more
nearly he lives; he's coming to see that it's easier
and more satisfactory to live through her than to
try to become her and usurp her qualities, claim
them as his own, push the female down and claim she's a
male. The fag, who accepts his maleness, that is, his
passivity and total sexuality, his femininity, is also best
served by women being truly female, as it would then be
easier for him to be male, feminine. If men were wise they
would seek to become really female, would do intensive
biological research that would lead to men, by means of
operations on the brain and nervous system, being able to
be transformed in psyche, as well as body, into women.
Whether to continue to use females for reproduction or to
reproduce in the laboratory will also become academic: what
will happen when every female, twelve and over, is
routinely taking the Pill and there are no longer any
accidents? How many women will deliberately get or (if an
accident) remain pregnant? No, Virginia, women don't just
adore being brood mares, despite what the mass of robot,
brainwashed women will say. When society consists of only
the fully conscious the answer will be none. Should a
certain percentage of women be set aside by force to serve
as brood mares for the species? Obviously this will not do.
The answer is laboratory reproduction of babies. As for the
issue of whether or not to continue to reproduce males, it
doesn't follow that because the male, like disease, has
always existed among us that he should continue to exist.
When genetic control is possible--and it soon will be--it
goes without saying that we should produce only whole,
complete beings, not physical defects or deficiencies,
including emotional deficiencies, such as maleness. Just as
the deliberate production of blind people would be highly
immoral, so would be the deliberate production of emotional
cripples. Why produce even females? Why should there be
future generations? What is their purpose? When aging and
death are eliminated, why continue to reproduce? Why should
we care what happens when we're dead? Why should we care
that there is no younger generation to succeed us?
Eventually the natural course of events, of social
evolution, will lead to total female control of the world
and, subsequently, to the cessation of the production of
males and, ultimately, to the cessation of the production
of females. But SCUM is impatient; SCUM is not consoled by
the thought that future generations will thrive; SCUM wants
to grab some thrilling living for itself. And, if a large
majority of women were SCUM, they could acquire complete
control of this country within a few weeks simply by
withdrawing from the labor force, thereby paralyzing the
entire nation. Additional measures, any one of which would
be sufficient to completely disrupt the economy and
everything else, would be for women to declare themselves
off the money system, stop buying, just loot and simply
refuse to obey all laws they don't care to obey. The police
force, National Guard, Army, Navy and Marines combined
couldn't squelch a rebellion of over half the population,
particularly when it's made up of people they are utterly
helpless without. If all women simply left men, refused to
have anything to do with any of them--ever, all men, the
government, and the national economy would collapse
completely. Even without leaving men, women who are aware
of the extent of their superiority to and power over men,
could acquire complete control over everything within a few
weeks, could effect a total submission of males to females.
In a sane society the male would trot along obediently
after the female. The male is docile and easily led, easily
subjected to the domination of any female who cares to
dominate him. The male, in fact, wants desperately to be
led by females, wants Mama in charge, wants to abandon
himself to her care. But this is not a sane society, and
most women are not even dimly aware of where they're at in
relation to men. The conflict, therefore, is not between
females and males, but between SCUM--dominant, secure,
self-confident, nasty, violent, selfish, independent,
proud, thrill-seeking, free-wheeling, arrogant females, who
consider themselves fit to rule the universe, who have
free-wheeled to the limits of this "society" and are ready
to wheel on to something far beyond what it has to
offer--and nice, passive, accepting, "cultivated", polite,
dignified, subdued, dependent, scared, mindless, insecure,
approval-seeking Daddy's Girls, who can't cope with the
unknown, who want to continue to wallow in the sewer that
is, at least, familiar, who want to hang back with the
apes, who feel secure only with Big Daddy standing by, with
a big, strong man to lean on and with a fat, hairy face in
the White House, who are too cowardly to face up to the
hideous reality of what a man is, what Daddy is, who have
cast their lot with the swine, who have adapted themselves
to animalism, feel superficially comfortable with it and
know no other way of "life", who have reduced their minds,
thoughts and sights to the male level, who, lacking sense,
imagination and wit can have value only in a male
"society", who can have a place in the sun, or, rather, in
the slime, only as soothers, ego boosters, relaxers and
breeders, who are dismissed as inconsequents by other
females, who project their deficiencies, their maleness,
onto all females and see the female as a worm. But SCUM is
too impatient to hope and wait for the de-brainwashing of
millions of assholes. Why should the swinging females
continue to plod dismally along with the dull male ones?
Why should the fates of the groovy and the creepy be
intertwined? Why should the active and imaginative consult
the passive and dull on social policy? Why should the
independent be confined to the sewer along with the
dependent who need Daddy to cling to? A small handful of
SCUM can take over the country within a year by
systematically fucking up the system, selectively
destroying property, and murder: SCUM will become members
of the unwork force, the fuck-up force; they will get jobs
of various kinds and unwork. For example, SCUM salesgirls
will not charge for merchandise; SCUM telephone operators
will not charge for calls; SCUM office and factory workers,
in addition to fucking up their work, will secretly destroy
equipment. SCUM will unwork at a job until fired, then get
a new job to unwork at. SCUM will forcibly relieve bus
drivers, cab drivers and subway token sellers of their jobs
and run buses and cabs and dispense free tokens to the
public. SCUM will destroy all useless and harmful
objects--cars, store windows, "Great Art", etc. Eventually
SCUM will take over the airwaves--radio and TV networks--by
forcibly relieving of their jobs all radio and TV employees
who would impede SCUM's entry into the broadcasting
studios. SCUM will couple-bust--barge into mixed
(male-female) couples, wherever they are, and bust them up.
SCUM will kill all men who are not in the Men's Auxiliary
of SCUM. Men in the Men's Auxiliary are those men who are
working diligently to eliminate themselves, men who,
regardless of their motives, do good, men who are playing
ball with SCUM. A few examples of the men in the Men's
Auxiliary are: men who kill men; biological scientists who
are working on constructive programs, as opposed to
biological warfare; journalists, writers, editors,
publishers and producers who disseminate and promote ideas
that will lead to the achievement of SCUM's goals; faggots
who, by their shimmering, flaming example, encourage other
men to de-man themselves and thereby make themselves
relatively inoffensive; men who consistently give things
away--money, things, services; men who tell it like it is
(so far not one ever has), who put women straight, who
reveal the truth about themselves, who give the mindless
male females correct sentences to parrot, who tell them a
woman's primary goal in life should be to squash the male
sex (to aid men in this endeavor SCUM will conduct Turd
Sessions, at which every male present will give a speech
beginning with the sentence: "I am a turd, a lowly, abject
turd," then proceed to list all the ways in which he is.
His reward for so doing will be the opportunity to
fraternize after the session for a whole, solid hour with
the SCUM who will be present. Nice, clean-living male women
will be invited to the sessions to help clarify any doubts
and misunderstandings they may have about the male sex);
makers and promoters of sex books and movies, etc., who are
hastening the day when all that will be shown on the screen
will be Suck and Fuck (males, like the rats following the
Pied Piper, will be lured by Pussy to their doom, will be
overcome and submerged by and will eventually drown in the
passive flesh that they are); drug pushers and advocates,
who are hastening the dropping out of men. Being in the
Men's Auxiliary is a necessary but not a sufficient
condition for making SCUM's escape list; it's not enough to
do good; to save their worthless asses men must also avoid
evil. A few examples of the most obnoxious or harmful types
are: rapists, politicians and all who are in their service
(campaigners, members of political parties, etc.); lousy
singers and musicians; Chairmen of Boards; Breadwinners;
landlords; owners of greasy spoons and restaurants that
play Musak; "Great Artists"; cheap pikers and welchers;
cops; tycoons; scientists working on death and destruction
programs or for private industry (practically all
scientists); liars and phonies; disc jockeys; men who
intrude themselves in the slightest way on any strange
female; real estate men; stock brokers; men who speak when
they have nothing to say; men who loiter idly on the street
and mar the landscape with their presence; double dealers;
flim-flam artists; litterbugs; plagiarizers; men who in the
slightest way harm any female; all men in the advertising
industry; psychiatrists and clinical psychologists;
dishonest writers, journalists, editors, publishers, etc.;
censors on both the public and private levels; all members
of the armed forces, including draftees (LBJ and McNamara
give orders, but servicemen carry them out) and
particularly pilots (if the bomb drops, LBJ won't drop it;
a pilot will). In the case of a man whose behavior falls
into both the good and bad categories, an overall
subjective evaluation of him will be made to determine if
his behavior is, in the balance, good or bad. It is most
tempting to pick off the female "Great Artists", double
dealers, etc. along with the men, but that would be
impractical, as there would be no one left; all women have
a fink streak in them, to a great or lesser degree, but it
stems from a lifetime of living among men. Eliminate men
and women will shape up. Women are improvable; men are not,
although their behavior is. When SCUM gets hot on their
asses it'll shape up fast. Simultaneously with the
fucking-up, looting, couple-busting, destroying and
killing, SCUM will recruit. SCUM, then, will consist of
recruiters; the elite corps--the hard core activists (the
fuck-ups, looters and destroyers) and the elite of the
elite--the killers. Dropping out is not the answer;
fucking-up is. Most women are already dropped out; they
were never in. Dropping out gives control to those few who
don't drop out; dropping out is exactly what the
establishment leaders want; it plays into the hands of the
enemy; it strengthens the system instead of undermining it,
since it is based entirely on the non-participation,
passivity, apathy and non-involvement of the mass of women.
Dropping out, however, is an excellent policy for men and
SCUM will enthusiastically encourage it. Looking inside
yourself for salvation, contemplating your navel, is not,
as the Drop Out people would have you believe, the answer.
Happiness lies outside yourself, is achieved through
interacting with others. Self-forgetfulness should be one's
goal, not self-absorption. The male, capable of only the
latter, makes a virtue of an irremediable fault and sets up
self-absorption, not only as a good but as a Philosophical
Good, and thus gets credit for being deep. SCUM will not
picket, demonstrate, march or strike to attempt to achieve
its ends. Such tactics are for nice, genteel ladies who
scrupulously take only such action as is guaranteed to be
ineffective. In addition, only decent, clean-living, male
women, highly trained in submerging themselves in the
species, act on a mob basis. SCUM consists of individuals;
SCUM is not a mob, a blob. Only as many SCUM will do a job
as are needed for the job. Also, SCUM, being cool and
selfish, will not subject itself to getting rapped on the
head with billy clubs; that's for the nice, "privileged,
educated", middle-class ladies with a high regard for the
touching faith in the essential goodness of Daddy and
policemen. If SCUM ever marches, it will be over the
President's stupid, sickening face; if SCUM ever strikes,
it will be in the dark with a six-inch blade. SCUM will
always operate on a criminal as opposed to a civil
disobedience basis, that is, as opposed to openly violating
the law and going to jail in order to draw attention to an
injustice. Such tactics acknowledge the rightness of the
overall system and are used only to modify it slightly,
change specific laws. SCUM is against the entire system,
the very idea of law and government. SCUM is out to destroy
the system, not attain certain rights within it. Also,
SCUM--always selfish, always cool--will always aim to avoid
detection and punishment. SCUM will always be furtive,
sneaky, underhanded (although SCUM murders will always be
known to be such). Both destruction and killing will be
selective and discriminate. SCUM is against half-crazed,
indiscriminate riots, with no clear objective in mind, and
in which many of your own kind are picked off. SCUM will
never instigate, encourage or participate in riots of any
kind or any other form of indiscriminate destruction. SCUM
will coolly, furtively, stalk its prey and quietly move in
for the kill. Destruction will never be such as to block
off routes needed for the transportation of food and other
essential supplies, contaminate or cut off the water
supply, block streets and traffic to the extent that
ambulances can't get through or impede the functioning of
hospitals. SCUM will keep on destroying, looting,
fucking-up and killing until the money-work system no
longer exists and automation is completely instituted or
until enough women co-operate with SCUM to make violence
unnecessary to achieve these goals, that is, until enough
women either unwork or quit work, start looting, leave men
and refuse to obey all laws inappropriate to a truly
civilized society. Many women will fall into line, but many
others, who surrendered long ago to the enemy, who are so
adapted to animalism, to maleness, that they like
restrictions and restraints, don't know what to do with
freedom, will continue to be toadies and doormats, just as
peasants in rice paddies remain peasants in rice paddies as
one regime topples another. A few of the more volatile will
whimper and sulk and throw their toys and dishrags on the
floor, but SCUM will continue to steamroller over them. A
completely automated society can be accomplished very
simply and quickly once there is a public demand for it.
The blueprints for it are already in existence, and its
construction will only take a few weeks with millions of
people working at it. Even though off the money system,
everyone will be most happy to pitch in and get the
automated society built; it will mark the beginning of a
fantastic new era, and there will be a celebration
atmosphere accompanying the construction. The elimination
of money and the complete institution of automation are
basic to all other SCUM reforms; without these two the
others can't take place; with them the others will take
place very rapidly. The government will automatically
collapse. With complete automation it will be possible for
every woman to vote directly on every issue by means of an
electronic voting machine in her house. Since the
government is occupied almost entirely with regulating
economic affairs and legislating against purely private
matters, the elimination of money and with it the
elimination of males who wish to legislate "morality" will
mean that there will be practically no issues to vote on.
After the elimination of money there will be no further
need to kill men; they will be stripped of the only power
they have over psychologically independent females. They
will be able to impose themselves only on the doormats, who
like to be imposed on. The rest of the women will be busy
solving the few remaining unsolved problems before planning
their agenda for eternity and Utopia--completely revamping
educational programs so that millions of women can be
trained within a few months for high level intellectual
work that now requires years of training (this can be done
very easily once our educational goal is to educate and not
to perpetuate an academic and intellectual elite); solving
the problems of disease and old age and death and
completely redesigning our cities and living quarters. Many
women will for a while continue to think they dig men, but
as they become accustomed to female society and as they
become absorbed in their projects, they will eventually
come to see the utter uselessness and banality of the male.
The few remaining men can exist out their puny days dropped
out on drugs or strutting around in drag or passively
watching the high-powered female in action, fulfilling
themselves as spectators, vicarious livers* or breeding in the cow pasture with the
toadies, or they can go off to the nearest friendly suicide
center where they will be quietly, quickly and painlessly
gassed to death. Prior to the institution of automation, to
the replacement of males by machines, the male should be of
use to the female, wait on her, cater to her slightest
whim, obey her every command, be totally subservient to
her, exist in perfect obedience to her will, as opposed to
the completely warped, degenerate situation we have now of
men, not only not existing at all, cluttering up the world
with their ignominious presence, but being pandered to and
groveled before by the mass of females, millions of women
piously worshipping before the Golden Calf, the dog leading
the master on the leash, when in fact the male, short of
being a drag queen, is least miserable when abjectly
prostrate before the female, a complete slave. Rational men
want to be squashed, stepped on, crushed and crunched,
treated as the curs, the filth that they are, have their
repulsiveness confirmed. The sick, irrational men, those
who attempt to defend themselves against their
disgustingness, when they see SCUM barreling down on them,
will cling in terror to Big Mama with her Big Bouncy
Boobies, but Boobies won't protect them against SCUM; Big
Mama will be clinging to Big Daddy, who will be in the
corner shitting in his forceful, dynamic pants. Men who are
rational, however, won't kick or struggle or raise a
distressing fuss, but will just sit back, relax, enjoy the
show and ride the waves to their demise.
*It will be electronically possible for
him to tune in to any specific female he wants to and
