BEING AND BEING BOUGHT
Varat och varan : prostitution, surrogatmödraskap och den delade människan
“ One doesn’t own one’s body, one is one’s body. ‘My body is me’. Not an object, an instrument, separated from the self, something that can be sold, rented, abandoned, or kept to oneself—but being itself. ”
Kajsa Ekis Ekman, Being and Being Bought
“ The left suffers from post-communist trauma and is scared of its own organizational power, many prefer to romanticize the spontaneous protest. ”

On the Meaning of Sex
Om könets existens: tankar om den nya synen på kön
“ If sex-based oppression really was only a cultural construct, would it perhaps go away if we ceased naming it - is that why other systems of domination, such as racism or homophobia, still insist on naming their oppressed subjects, whereas patriarchy knows it doesn't have to name - women will still be women anyway? ”
