The app for independent voices

I will never be able to articulate what it means to me to read this brilliance.

“Incest is not a noun, but a gerund, a happening.The logic of incest is domination, and its greatest power is in the plausible deniability of its ubiquity. This is how incest can happen in front of our faces, right in plain sight. This is how a haircut can be sexual abuse, too. When you stand too close, I am a spoiled complainer being perverted about a mother’s mischief. When you step back, the sickness of the domination comes into full view, and you know with your body the truth.”
