My very first concert was the Selecter :D
I’ll shave my legs, I’ll wear a bra, I’d even cut my penis off for you!
I was worried it was feces-related.
What is the "skatriachy", exactly? Isn't the world of skating already somewhat openly to all comers? They don't seem like a snobby bunch.
Gotta sell shirts and merch somehow.
They have a wordpress site: https://smashtheskatriarchy.wordpress.com/
hetero-patriarchy in the skate scene
Is this really much of an issue?
Yeah, the skate scene is not very progressive in my experience
Thanks for digging this up. I was picturing inline skating or ice skating and was a bit confused (i.e. roller derby is predominantly a women's sport, to my knowledge anyway.) But I can definitely see skate boarding as a male-dominated sport. And historically, male dominated sports/spaces/hobbies haven't been welcoming and accepting of feminist values.
I came here hoping gor a zine about Ska. Maybe next time ಠ╭╮ಠ
