"It is an interesting observation that a culture that seems so bent on standardisation, centralisation, hierarchies, etc. - the computer being the epitome of all that - should be developping into a culture which seems to demand quite the opposite. Suddenly, the skills which have been promoted so much in the past - that is a straightforward and very logical way of thinking , i.e. the classic male thinking - begins to become quite dysfunctional." -- Sadie Plant in Fringecore magazine Aug/Sept 98
The Garage, Better Days, were the clubs, that we as young single black women, could just go to dance, and not be harassed by men, you always felt safe. The guys treated us like their baby sisters or something, totally protective, it was incredible. Much love. [...]The best clubs were always the black gay clubs.
