[Smashpatriarchy] on the publicity of a name

Hey comrades,
Someone in the UK saw a post about the SAP posters online and sent me this:
"
I just want to point out how the more I think about it, the more I
love the name "Solidarity Against Patriarchy" for a (mostly)
male-organized group. It keeps a respectful distance from the Feminist
label, but at the same time makes a stronger commitment to Feminist
ideals than simply being "pro-feminist". It also avoids the (often)
pitfall of making a big deal about being a group for men in the name
itself, yet the opposition to patriarchy leaves the door open to
examine how men are effected.
I'm just a bit sad that I can't find any online information about the
group itself."
with love across a pond,
Aylon
