This is an LFS online discussion series, held on Google Meet.
Across two sessions, we’ll explore how patriarchy and matriarchy organize power, care, law, family, sex, money, violence, and democracy.
We’ll use consciousness-raising style discussion rules: speak personally, listen carefully, don’t interrupt, and don’t debate someone while they are speaking.
For each question, we’ll do a speaking round first. After everyone who wants to speak has done so, Susan will offer brief evidence, examples, or definitions to deepen the discussion.

Part 2 August 13

  • What are the benefits of each?
  • What are the dangers or pitfalls of each?
  • Can democracy exist inside a patriarchy?

This is not a lecture. It is a structured conversation about power, equality, family, sex, law, care, violence, democracy, and what kind of world we want to build.

About Susan’s Events
Events I organize welcome open inquiry and diverse viewpoints within a foundation of equality, human dignity, and democracy.
Racist, sexist, fascist, anti-LGBTQ, or other ideologies that deny anyone’s equal rights are not welcome or open for debate. Participants are never required to defend or debate their humanity or equality.
I may interrupt or remove anyone whose words or conduct violate these boundaries.
