In her reissued book "Right-Wing Women," Andrea Dworkin explores the paradox of conservative women who embrace patriarchal authority. She argues that their antifeminism, often seen as contradictory, is a conscious choice made for survival in a harsh and male-dominated world. Dworkin contrasts these women with liberal feminists, whom she views as delusional for believing in gradual change. Her work underscores the complexities of women's experiences within patriarchal structures and highlights the grim realities many must navigate, recognizing that some actively choose to align with oppressive systems to achieve safety.
Dworkin argues that right-wing women perceive the oppressive nature of patriarchy accurately, accepting male authority not out of belief in reform, but for survival.
Despite her fierce feminist ideology, Dworkin acknowledges that right-wing women understand the realities of male dominance in society, viewing their choices as pragmatic responses.
