For #LGBThistorymonth I will be posting an #lgbtq #womaninhistory every day. Today is Josephine Ho, one of the most known feminist scholars in Taiwan. She is called “the godmother of the Taiwanese queer movement.”

Ho has been a women’s rights activist since the 1990s when she led Taiwan’s first demonstration against sexual harassment, and devised its slogan, “We don’t want sexual harassment, we want orgasms. If you keep sexually harassing us, we’ll cut it off with a pair of scissors!”

She is the chair of the English department of National Central University, Taiwan, and coordinator of its Center For the Study of Sexualities
