La M.A.M.I es una musea de arte y arqueología que desde el presente conserva obras de la cultura popular feminista, prácticas de resistencia ante el patriarcado y los horrores del machismo.

La 'sodomita secta' i el valencians, en la 'Crònica o dietari del capellà d’Alfons el Magnànim' (1400s)

On the outskirts of cities, the ukiyo, or 'floating world'—from a Buddhist term signifying the transience of material pleasures—combined fashion and eroticism in its networks of brothels, teahouses, and theaters. Like today’s sex industry in its relationship to pornography,

The tradition of the oppressed teaches us that the ‘state of emergency’ in which we live is not the exception but the rule.

Poetry.
Sex.
There’s a kind of sex that is less about power than about the unpredictability—and the flexibility—with which that power gets divided between and among the parties involved.

The humility of a leatherman is not bestowed but learned. It is acquired through an understanding of human limits:
