Feminists have had difficulty engaging the destructive states of mind that Solanas lays bare. I also consider how this reading complicates the status of the manifesto as a canonical feminist text. Rather, she says, “I thought of it as a state of mind” (Village Voice, July 5, 1977). In an interview in 1977, Valerie Solanas disputes the idea that her manifesto refers to an actual organization or political group.

Shifting fluidly between the worlds of satire and straightforward critique, this classic is a call to action-a radical feminist vision for a different world. I argue that the SCUM Manifesto, usually considered a treatise on gender, can also be read as a theory of mind. First circulated on the streets of Greenwich Village in 1967, the SCUM Manifesto is a searing indictment of patriarchal culture in all its forms.
