Question Non-profits for women's rights aligned with gender critical / radical feminist views?

posted by gryffinterf252 in WomensLiberation

I've been trying to find organizations that support women's (sex based) rights and feminism from a radical / gender critical standpoint. These are the ones I've found so far--

Women's Declaration International -- Fights for women's sex based rights.

Women's Liberation Front -- Fights for women's sex based rights.

Culture Reframed -- Gail Dines' organization which fights against a pornified culture.

LGB Alliance -- Fights for gay rights & advocates for dropping the T. (There's one based in UK and one in the US.)

Any others you know of?

I would include Nordic Model Now! -- fights for the abolition of prostitution.

For organizations that don't specifically address GC matters, but only support females, international ones, especially around femicide are good ones to check out.

The International Alliance of Women

https://www.womenalliance.org

Stop Violence Against Women

https://www.stopvaw.org/our_work

Association for Women's Rights in Development

https://www.awid.org

I am sure there are great GC ones in the UK.

Sadly, I thought NOW was, they do only seem to have a single token statement, but, oh well.

Here is a list of US feminist ones, it could be a good starting ground. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Feminist_organizations_in_the_United_States

Deep Green Resistance is a GC ecofeminist organization.

Women's Liberation

Feminism is the movement to liberate women from patriarchy.

We stand up for the rights of women as a sex-class. Women have a right to bodily autonomy and to set their own boundaries and have them respected. We resist efforts to limit women's reproductive autonomy. We condemn the men who exploit and abuse women in prostitution and pornography. We oppose all harms and forms of exploitation of women and girls, regardless of whether or not they're sold as "choice" or re-framed as "empowering." We oppose the movement to redefine "women" in a way that erases the realities of our lives and makes organizing for our liberation as a sex-class impossible.

"In the radical feminist view, the new feminism is not just the revival of a serious political movement for social equality. It is the second wave of the most important revolution in history. Its aim: the overthrow of the oldest, most rigid class/caste system in existence, the class system based on sex – a system consolidated over thousands of years, lending the archetypal male and female roles an undeserved legitimacy and seeming permanence." –Shulamith Firestone, The Dialectic of Sex
