BitchCraft - The Intersection of Witchcraft and Punished Feminity
Photo Credit: Bee Felten-Leidel via Unsplash I can teach you bitchcraft How to make your man cry I can walk you through that If you don't know how I can teach you 'bout bitchcraft Gotta love 'em with your bags packed We can make 'em hurt Just say the word I can teach you bitchcraft I've been playing Bitchcraft by Jax on repeat for a solid week. The strange space between being feminine and magic is a thin line. In Jax's song she talks about learning bitchcraft from her mother. She was taught as a child how to manipulate men, starting with her brother. The accusations against magical women throughout history, have centered around the idea that they can 'hypnotize' or 'confuse' men. When in reality, many accused women solely manipulated a weak willed man. Or they were manipulated by a weak willed man. It never made sense to me how some practitioners grouped feminine energy in with magic. Maybe there's more truth to it than I realized. Remembe
