a wise woman said men would never interact with anything unless there's personal gain for them, and especially that works on women because men are raised to believe that women are here to serve them, and i can't stress enough how important it is to remember this. if a man treats you somewhat nicely, it's because he's trying to prove himself through you, if he's barely even seeing you as a person and not a service robot, it won't change because it's easier to find another servant to keep up with him. no one is their priority nit themselves and you should always keep that in mind.
It is now technically feasible to reproduce without the aid of males (or, for that matter, females) and to produce only females. We must begin immediately to do so. Retaining the mail has not even the dubious purpose of reproduction. The male is a biological accident: the Y (male) gene is an incomplete X (female) gene, that is, it 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.

How much hate and bitterness must one accumulate to genuinely belief something so horrific?
I think people keep missing the point of SCUM. Men have said this and worse about women for literal centuries but it has never discredited them the way SCUM discredits Solanas. We still read and teach Plato when he thought that women were unable to reach enlightenment because they were incomplete unlike men.
You canât take Solanas seriously on anything she ever said because everyone brings up SCUM as a way to say âlook how crazy she was!â But no one ever does that for any other male writer who thought abhorrent things about women. Why isnât saying women arenât complete souls not enough to ignore all Plato ever said as the ramblings of a crazy and bitter man? Why isnât rampant misogyny enough to tell a man heâs too far gone to have anything worth saying? Why is misogyny acceptable?
SCUM is intentionally inflammatory. Itâs perfectly natural for people, especially the proposed targets, to discredit proponents of genocide.
That doesnât make misogyny acceptable.
In actual fact, the female function is to explore, discover, invent, solve problems crack jokes, make music â all with love. In other words, create a magic world.Â
- S.C.U.M. Manifesto (Society for Cutting Up Men) by Valerie Solanas 1967
Even amongst 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 about the amorphous mass. Love canât flourish in a society based upon 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 `societyâ provides practically no opportunity to engage in such activities.

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. 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.

SCUM Feathered
If you think SCUM is too much, youâve never sat still while someone unmade you and smiled
People get so hung up on the shock factor of the SCUM Manifesto they forget to read it for what it is. Valerie wasnât just ranting she was also reversing the gaze. She wrote about men the way men have written about women for centuries: cold, cruel, disposable, beneath.
Itâs satire. It's weaponized perspective. Itâs the sound of centuries of objectification slammed back into the face of the oppressor.
You wanna know how it feels to be spoken about like a category? Like a disease? Like something subhuman? Read SCUM. Thatâs how men have written about women in medical journals, courtrooms, locker rooms, and textbooks. Solanas just flipped the script.
Itâs not a guidebook, itâs a scream. A rage-text. A feminist nuke dropped on a world that kept stepping on women and laughing. Solanas was pissed, poor, and had been deeply hurt. She wrote SCUM with venom because nice wasnât getting anyone free.
Some people misread it as literal. Others dismiss it entirely. But if youâve ever wanted to burn it all down because no one listens when you cry for help? Youâll get it. Youâll feel it in your ribs.
Yeah, Valerie Solanas shot Andy Warhol. And Iâm not here to sanitize that. It happened. But letâs not pretend it came out of nowhere or that he was some innocent art angel caught in the crossfire.
He exploited her. He strung her along. Took her script, ghosted her, laughed at her rage. Like too many powerful men do when a womanâs desperate and inconvenient. He made her feel invisible. Like her work didnât matter. Like she didnât matter. And she snapped.
Women donât usually shoot people. Thatâs the whole point. Society teaches us to swallow the rage, not act on it. To self-destruct quietly. Valerie turned that rage outward, and suddenly the world cared. cause a man got hurt.
And letâs be real if Solanas had been a man with a manifesto, heâd be called a revolutionary. A genius. Another tortured visionary in the museum of white male madness. But she was a woman, poor and "unhinged", so they called her a lunatic and locked her up.
Iâm not a feminist in the soft, palatable, âI do this for meâ kind of way. Iâm not singing dainty empowerment songs in a gilded cage. Iâm a molting, wild-eyed thing with blood on my beak. Iâm SCUM-type. Feathered fury. Talons out. I donât want equality in a broken systemâI want the nest torched. Men, leave me alone. Donât try to clip my wings. Donât perch too close. Your approval means nothing to me. Your opinions fall like fledglings from the tree. This isnât empowerment in a pink cageâitâs survival with bones in the nest. Iâm not here to be tame. Iâm here to scream loud enough to split the sky.

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 an fuse with the female, and by claiming as his own all female characteristics â emotional strength and independence, forcefulness, dynamism, decisiveness, coolness, objectivity, assertiveness, courage, integrity, vitality, intensity, depth of character, grooviness, etc â and projecting onto women all male traits â vanity, frivolity, triviality, weakness, etc. It should be said, though, that the male has one glaring area of superiority over the female â 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 theyâd find fulfilling if they were female.

"Disapproval of emotional "scenes" leads to fear of strong emotion, fear of one's own 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 the most banal, trivial amusements are great fun and deeply pleasurable."
