➪ The Time of Raised Cherries
contact : letemps-descerises-remontees@riseup.net
In recent years and even more so in recent months, we are witnessing a renewed interest in contraceptive burden sharing and so-called “male” or testicular contraception. These methods challenge the evidence that menstruators in heterosexual relationships should necessarily carry the contraceptive burden alone. Largely invisible by political and medical authorities despite their effectiveness, these methods remain relatively inaccessible and unknown.
To reflect together on gender relations, on the different ways of experiencing one's sexuality, but also on the empowerment that taking control of one's fertility allows! To discuss the issues, limits and potential abuses. And for those who want to get their hands on the needle, we can start making super-stylish contraceptive underwear and accompany us on our testicular lift journeys!
To Scops: the last Thursdays of the month from 6:30 p.m. for a discussion + sewing evening and the last Saturdays of the month from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. for a sewing workshop.
➪ The GAF (Feminist Action Group)
email: contact-groupe.actions.feministes@herbesfolles.org
The GAF is a Feminist Action Group which fights in Besançon. We participate in local demonstrations on March 8 for the International Day of Struggle for the Rights of Women and Gender Minorities and we mobilize around November 25 for the International Day Against Gender-Based and Sexual Violence (#Me Too, #Nous Tous and #Je believe you). For the 150th anniversary of the Paris Commune (1871-2021) we held an exhibition on the “Women of the Paris Commune”.
The GAF collective organizes debates, screenings, gesture conferences and also carried out a survey on street harassment in Besançon. Its analysis revealed that those questioned asked for more education and prevention.
The GAF does not benefit from subsidies and operates horizontally, without hierarchy, in a chosen non-mixed manner. Our meetings take place at SCOPS, often between noon and 2 p.m. to allow us to eat lunch and advocate at the same time. We fight against all dominations and especially against patriarchy.
Come meet us! Join us !
