Manifesto

Our Manifesto

PMS is a purely female syndrome. A singular state of altered consciousness known only to us. A hysterical ecstasy that precedes a bloody catharsis. A secret sign of readiness to conceive and bring forth a new reality. Menstrual blood is the source of male fears and taboos. A magical substance that gave rise to the patriarchal notion of unclean spirits — one that demonizes woman as the progenitor of dragons, vampires, and other devils. We, for our part, declare our menstrual blood a redemptive panacea for global catastrophe — an elixir of life, truth, freedom.

  1. 01

    WITH BLOOD we will stain all those who consider woman unclean.

  2. 02

    WITH BLOOD we will defile everything that calls woman foul.

  3. 03

    WITH BLOOD we will wash the shame of the patriarchal world order from the face of the earth.

Our Tactics

Raising the Skirt: “Anasyrma”

It is the most ancient magical gesture, a manifestation of female dignity, strength, power.

Anasyrma was practiced in Ancient Egypt in the cult of the cat goddess Bastet.

Anasyrma was used in the ancient Greek women’s mysteries dedicated to the goddess Demeter.

Anasyrma was employed in the Japanese cult of the sun goddess Amaterasu.

Anasyrma was at work in the Scandinavian myth of the goddess Skadi.

Raising their skirts in imitation of the goddesses’ gesture, women of old drove the spirits of cold, hunger, and war away from themselves and their offspring.

They believed in the power of the vagina, the mere sight of which brought dead goddesses back to life and killed the spirits of evil, violence, war.

Our Symbolism

Vagina

The vagina is the symbol of humanity’s common origin.

The vagina is the symbol of woman’s primacy and dominance — beside her, all ideologies and cultures are mere flotsam.

It is the chief justification of democracy as the equality of all who are born.

The apotheosis of hope for the rebirth of our world, mutilated by patriarchy.

It is unconditional power.

Showing it is the supreme act of nihilism, anarchy, and freedom.

Our Principle

Radicalism and Irony

Our Enemy

The three-headed patriarchal serpent, whose name is dictatorship, religion, the sex industry.

About Us

We approach the world — and ourselves — with irony.

Our hitched-up skirt carries on the European carnival tradition with its cult of the upside-down, of cross-dressing, of the inside-out.

Laughter is our most important weapon against the hyper-serious, eternally pompous, vain dictatorship of the masculine principle.

For “even those who fear nothing else fear ridicule” (N. Gogol).

Join us — and the flick of your skirt will become the butterfly effect, the beat of a wing that gives rise to a storm!
