    Do you know the SCUM manifesto (Society for Cutting Up Men), by Valerie Solanas (famous for having stabbed Andy Warhol)? Needless to say I don't agree with all of it, but it does have one of literature's greatest opening sentences:

    "Life" in this "society" being, at best, an utter bore and no aspect of "society" being at all relevant to women, there remains to civic-minded, responsible, thrill-seeking females only to overthrow the government, eliminate the money system, institute complete automation and eliminate the male sex.
