DESCRIPTION:Richard Meyer\n\nWednesday, April 25, 2007\nLecture Hall, 7:30pm\n\n"Back 
 to the Effeminist Future"\n\nAmerican feminist art of the early 1970s is 
 typically remembered for its focus on female experience and embodiment. A 
 less familiar strand of feminist work from the same moment insisted on the 
 right of women artists to express their desire for the male body—and for 
 the penis in particular—in visual terms. This paper looks in detail at 
 work of one such artist, Anita Steckel, and at the activist mission of the 
 "Fight Censorship" group she founded in 1973. It also considers the 
 "Effeminists," a radical group of gay men who disavowed all forms of male 
 supremacy in the early 1970s. The effeminists called on gay men to help and 
 support women (by, for example, providing free day-care) without entering 
 into or otherwise intervening in the women's movement. Taken together, the 
 Fight Censorship Group and the Effeminists constitute  both a 
 counter-narrative of early 1970s feminism and a set of possibilities for 
 the feminist future.\n\n
