The #MeToo move-ment followed, an incisive event in the feminist movement to start a wide public discourse about sexu-al violence. However, building identification with a movement on the basis of pain that is assumed tobe collective, creates certain problems, which are analyzed in this paper from a perspective of affecttheory. I argue that the instrumentalization of the affect “pain” led to three problems: a blurring ofpower imbalances between the women affected, a blurring between sexism and sexual violence, andgendered generalizations. Therefore, reference to collective pain as a basis for building and identifica-tion with a (feminist) movement as well as instrumentalizing affects to build social movements shouldbe problematized. 4950 https://doi.org/10.17185/diskurs/74375$xR$3Volltext$534 4950 https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:hbz:464-20210505-121111-6$xR$3Volltext$534 4961 https://duepublico2.uni-due.de/receive/duepublico_mods_00074375 5051 300 5051 320 5550 #MeToo 5550 Affekte 5550 Feminismus 5550 Kollektiver Schmerz 5550 Sexualisierte Gewalt
