Against the Couple Form - Clemence x Clementine

https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/clemence-x-clementine-against-the-couple-form

Dismantling the logic of the couple does not indicate distaste for love, but rather a critique of directing love towards a specific object. One must contextualize the couple-form within patriarchy, as so-called "love" arrives to us through the apparatus of gender. Denouncing the couple does not mean shunning giddiness, love letters written in tiny cursive with quill pens, or the feeling of the sidewalk being a trampoline. Rather, critiquing the couple involves an analysis of the way that patriarchy has recuperated women's desire for solidarity, for intimacy, for excitement,
for negation, for the event into
consolidation of phallic power and the accumulation of capital.
