Sexually harassed working class women need a PROTECTIVE, POSSESSIVE BOY FRIEND
Lessons of the Alabama election
It is rather ridiculous for a party to name itself Socialist Worker when it has no faith in the working class to change capitalist society- with its endless wars and economic catastrophes for working people.
It is not utopian to see clearly that a better social/economic order is possible, that there is an unacceptable amount of misery -preventable misery- in this world.
Where do working class women go with legitimate fears of sexual harassment at work ? To the New York Times, to corrupt union leaders, to bourgeois prosecutors ? To fascist minded police ?
Their best friends can only be their working class brothers and sisters. And don't underestimate the power of the English language : HANDS OFF ! My BOYFRIEND will visit you.
Yes, a " possessive " boyfriend can be an asset -even though socialists frown on "private property " neurosis in personal relationships.
