Fast Feminism

FAST FEMINISM is a new-old feminism grounded in politics, performance and philosophy. It is in close proximity to postfeminisms of the poststructuralist variety third-wave feminism, queer feminism, cyberfeminism and feminism 3.0. While FAST FEMINISM operates in proximity to other feminisms, its natural home is in queer theory. Queer gets its meaning and its politics from its oppositional relationship to hegemonic norms. To queer something is to disrupt it, to put it under scrutiny and to attempt to change it. FAST FEMINISM takes the hypermasculine speed of Paul Virilio and makes it feminist. FAST FEMINISM is the bastard offspring and the happy accident of speed theory. FAST FEMINISM is a philo-porno-political practice a pragmatic philosophy and politics enacted by the pornographic sage who moves through the text as FF. Fast feminist event sites include female ejaculation, drag-kinging, an infamous child-pornography trial, Bataillean sex at a women s bathhouse, posthuman-humachine seduction and sex organ tissue-engineering. FF is a post-gender provocateur, not so much a gender terrorist as a gender risk-taker going the distance with her body.
