Bootlickers Of The Patriarchy

Bootlickers of the Patriarchy was written about Senator Susan Collins and her infamous press conference after the Kavanaugh/Blasey Ford hearings. It's about women who succeed from undermining the success of other women or choose to gain success from exploiting the oppression of other women. This is a character who has taken many forms throughout history, the kind of woman who seems perfectly content playing Gamma to the Alpha male. "Bootlicker" is my direct challenge to the notion of 'women supporting other women,' and the falsehoods and unrealistic expectations that comes with a statement like that."
