"Language as a medium represents and transports gender binarity. The gender relationship is constructed through the perception of (gender) perception" (Luhmann 1997: 207).

 

Our daily language shows an absence of people who live in non-binary systems, or who identify themselves as non-binary and thus fall out of the category of the so-called "normal".
They cannot or do not want to meet the requirements of heteronormativity. Heteronormative language produces and fixes injustice. It standardizes behaviour and social expectations in relation to heterosexuality and belonging to a strict gender binary. And this necessarily implies oppression.

"As we tell[hear] stories about the lives of others, we learn how to imagine what another creature might feel in response to various events. At the same time, we identify with the other creature and learn something about ourselves."
[Martha C. Nussbaum]

Austria concluded a recruitment agreement with Turkey in 1964 and with the former Yugoslavia in 1966 in order to recruit workers. "Guest workers" came and stayed. In the 1990s, the collapse of Yugoslavia brought in numerous refugees who also stayed. Within the "foreign" resident population, the largest group (37.7 percent) comes from the countries of the former Yugoslavia. [http://www2.land-oberoesterreich.gv.at] Around 48% of these are women*.

Frauen*, die Musik machen, werden größtenteils immer noch in der Reihenfolge definiert: zuerst als Frau* und dann erst als Musiker*in. Popmusik ist nach wie vor männlich* dominiert, das zeigt das SR Archiv österreichischer Popularmusik, das heuer seine über zwei Jahrzehnte aufgebaute Datenbank analysiert hat.

We are delighted to present the FIFTITU% annual review 2014 with this wonderful poster: TA...TA...TA...TAAA...

Focus of the year 2014 "Feminist concert of wishes"

Music is a socially widely recognized and at the same time contested space of representation. As such, it is also a projection surface for a wide variety of wishes and ideas that should be used to actively promote discussion and discourse on gender symmetry. Feminism is to be seen as a lateral/queer position to the structural guidelines in the musical male-male stream. FIFTITU%
's engagement with the field of music has already run through many years of feminist debate Download - at the END
