Other priceless quotes from this documentary are below.

And by the way, the women being interviewed are described as 'radical' Feminists as if to suggest that they are on the fringes. They are not. Look at the jobs they have and the platforms in education and the media they hold.

These are still leading lights in the movement and their ideas inspire others, even if now some of them are being criticized as TERFs' (i.e. Feminists who refuse to acknowledge trans-women as women).

Sheila Jeffrys, retired professor at University of Melbourne:

Rage is absolutely fundamental, not anger it's not strong enough, it has to be rage.

Julie Bindel, activist and regular Guardian contributor:

What we deserved was freedom from the tyranny of male oppression and we were going to get it by any means necessary

From Love your enemy? The debate between heterosexual feminism and political lesbianism:

The heterosexual couple is the basic unit of the political structure of male supremacy. It is more efficient by far than keeping women in ghettos, camps or even sheds at the bottom of the garden. Any woman who takes part in a heterosexual couple helps to shore up male supremacy by making its foundations stronger.

Elizabeth Carola:

Some women felt they didn't want to have kids if those were going to be boy kids. And that they'd be afraid of raising sons, and having those sons grow up in an abusive, destructive patriarchal world that they then had to relinquish control over their children and see their children become men in a society like this. So some women didn't want to have male children with the best of motives.

Linda Bellos:

We discussed the extent to which women had … rape fantasies. You know, it happened. Many of us, almost every one of us did. You know, what was that all about? Here we were, strong, you know, lesbian Feminists – why are we having these fantasies?

That last point, by the way, has proved absolutely crucial to the theory of so-called Rape Culture.

They have tried to find explanations as to why women fantasise about such sexual assault in this way, and rather than come to the rather more obvious and mundane conclusion that it's just a fantasy and it doesn't really have to mean anything more than that, they have declared that this is evidence that we live in a Patriarchal system that socially constructs women to embrace their own oppression and subjugation.

You can laugh, you can cry, you can call it a tin-foil conspiracy – but that notion is what is being rail-roaded into court houses as we speak.

This shit is insane, and it really has to come to a stop at some point.

The whole documentary portrays these deluded women who have almost no self-awareness at all.

A gem occurs at 36:18

Interviewer: Was there an anxiety that if you looked at it (pornography) at home on your own that it would be arousing or that it would be disturbing?

Radfem: mm no, disturbing. Largely it was disturbing. Sometimes it was also arousing. I mean we discussed the extent to which women had...rape fantasies. You know, it happened. Many of us, almost every one of us did. What was that all about? Here we were - you know, strong lesbian feminists Why are we having these fantasies?

What is really worrying is that these nutters - and make no mistake some of them are clinically mad - have had such a strong influence in colleges, government, courts and the media.

This video is the gift that keeps on giving c. 46’15”:

Identity politics were used by some people as a way to shut others up …

By the way, this radical Feminist Al Garthwaite saying this, she continues:

… or for them to gain power. This will always happen. And it was not, in the end, positive. I can’t think of anything good to say.

And this bit:

interviewer There is something sort of Lord of the Flies about it.

Radical Feminist Yes, it was! It became quite sinister. It was a bit Lord-of-the-Flies-y, and it was a bit like - I mean I’ve used the word ‘fundamentalisms’ - it was a bit like a bit of a cult, where cult members sort of end up with - you know excluding each other or killing each other or, you know, just sort of turning on and turning on and turning on each other … until there’s only you left.

Deranged, deluded, one-eyed, bigoted, nasty, two-faced, victim-complex narcissistic bullies. Their poor, poor sons.

Cunts, the lot of em.
