  • La Prostitution: Analyses Feministes Abolitionnistes Contemporaines
    LA PROSTITUTION: ANALYSES FEMINISTES ABOLITIONNISTES CONTEMPORAINES JOURNEE D’ETUDE vendredi 7 juin 2019, de 9h à 17h Géopolis salle 2121 Université de Lausanne Organisée par Glòria Casas Vila & Véronique Mottier (Laboratoire THEMA, UNIL) Cette journée d’étude se penchera sur les arguments avancés par les analyses féministes abolitionnistes de la prostitution. Pourquoi ces analyses considèrent la prostitution comme une forme de violence des hommes contre les femmes, et rejettent la notion d’un ‘travail’? Pourquoi elles critiquent la distinction entre une prostitution ‘forcée’ et une prostitution dite ‘libre’ ? Quelles analyses sous-tendent l’appel à la pénalisation des hommes qui font recours à l’achat de femmes ou d’hommes prostitué·e·s ? Quelles politiques publiques sont promues depuis ces analyses ? Les arguments abolitionnistes ont été mobilisés pour justifier des changements légaux importants dans des pays comme la Suède, la Norvège, l’Islande, l’Irlande, le Canada ou la France. La loi suédoise Kvinnofrid (traduction : « Pour la paix des femmes», promulguée en 1999) figure en outre dans la Résolution du Parlement Européen du 26 février 2014 sur l'exploitation sexuelle et la prostitution et leurs conséquences sur l'égalité entre les hommes et les femmes, qui la présente comme une manière efficace de lutter contre la traite des femmes et des filles à des fins d'exploitation sexuelle, et pour combattre les inégalités entre les hommes et les femmes. Dans le contexte suisse, les arguments abolitionnistes sont par contre relativement peu connus. L’objectif de cette journée d’étude est dès lors de servir d’occasion pour un débat approfondi et critique sur ces arguments (plutôt que leur promotion).

    GENDER CRITICAL AT WORK Search MENU tuesday march 30 2021 Linda Bellos had said she would be ‘publicly questioning’ some transgender politics ROGER ASKEW Linda Bellos barred in Cambridge University row James Gillespie and Sian Griffiths Sunday October 01 2017, 12.01am, The Sunday Times Share Save A leading feminist has had an invitation to speak at Cambridge University withdrawn amid concerns that transgender activists could oppose her. Linda Bellos had been invited by the Beard Society at Peterhouse College and sent a list of dates — which were withdrawn after she said she would be “publicly questioning some of the trans politics . which seems to assert the power of those who were previously designated male to tell lesbians, and especially lesbian feminists, what to say and think”. Ailish Maroof, the co-president of the society, which describes itself as a “gender and feminism” group, replied: “I’m sorry but we’ve decided not to host you. I too believe in freedom of expression, however Peterhouse is as much a home as it is a college. The welfare of our students in this instance has to come first.” The prospect of laws to let men redefine their gender without a physical transition and then gain access to changing rooms and women’s refuges has angered many. “I’m not being told by someone who a few months ago was a man what I as a woman can or cannot do,” Bellos said. Maroof declined to comment.
