Make a one-time donation to the Devidasa Sacred Gynarchy to help us work toward creating the first Hive retreat.

Make a monthly recurring donation to support The Devidasa Sacred Gynarchy. Use the scale below to decide on the appropriate contribution.

Surrender

5 - 10% of your income, like a traditional tithe, your offering shows that you fully support building a Gynarchist community and want to contribute to our plans. You can contribute with each paycheck, monthly, or if you are retired, contribute a percentage of your savings.

Submit

By giving 15 - 41% of their income or savings, men can symbolically offer compensation for the gender pay gap since their birth.  In the 1960s, women made 59 cents per dollar for the same work as men.  By the 1970s, that increased to 70 cents per dollar. In 2020, it was finally up to 83 cents per dollar, and current estimates show that women make around 85 cents per dollar of men’s earnings.

Sacrifice

As a man, giving 42 - 50% of your income shows you value the vision of a women-led world as much as your own well-being. You can feel the real impact of your contribution, and selflessly sacrifice the things you want in order to help make the vision happen.

SERVE AND SURVIVE

Contributions of 50 - 75% of your income should be made if you live within the Hive and share living expenses with the community. Your survival is tied into the survival of the Hive, and you keep only what you really need for your own personal expenses.

The Devidasa Sacred Gynarchy welcomes online volunteers with skills in needed areas such as web design, fundraising, marketing, content creation, copywriting, bookkeeping,  legal services, and social media management as well physical and domestic skills which can be used in person at the Hive from cleaning to gardening and landscaping and pampering of female guests. If you are interested, please fill out our volunteer application. 

ON POWER AND MONEY:
‍Power is getting what you want the way you want it. Money is a form of power and energy, and like all other forms of power, we think men should be putting it into the hands of women to create women-led societies rather than clinging to it as their last thread of dominance. Even if not contributed to the Sacred Gynarchy mission, it should be used to support women’s plans and goals in some way.  ‍Men have held the majority of economic power for millennia and so we have no qualms about asking men to give up their privilege.

Our stance is somewhat radical: We want to create female-led religious and healing spaces, and we want men to pay for it as compensation for their gender hoarding resources now and in the past. This is an invitation to help build a new world, and an opportunity to be a source of delight and abundance. If this stance offends you and you have the urge to write a strongly worded protest, stop. Rethink your relationship to money and power and recognize the ways in which money has been used to entrap and manipulate women for generations. Men can make up for this history by ensuring their resources are used to build a Gynarchic vision. You may view it as supporting a worthwhile mission, and/or an act of atonement. ‍

‍Given the kinds of messages we are accustomed to receiving from men who find themselves triggered by this call to action, please note: If you don’t wish to contribute economically to the Sacred Gynarchy, then simply don’t. It's really that easy. No need to announce how adamantly you disagree, or outline your judgement of our requests or of the men who contribute (we all know some men think “simp” is an insult and would much prefer to be pimps). Understand that your objections are unoriginal. Such tantrums are tediously predictable, useful to no one, and are promptly ignored. Contrary to how passionate you may feel about this subject, not every thought you think needs to be shared. Thanks!
