This is such an insane and out of touch take. men have had thousands of years to stop oppressing women. how many more years are we supposed to wait. how many more times are we supposed to try and get men to understand when the ones who hurt women know what they are doing. why does that fall on women’s shoulders. this post is assuming single sex bathrooms exist everywhere which is not the case, many women are still fighting for access to spaces like public bathrooms and they face the consequences of males entering their private spaces every day. if men are so capable of behaving themselves why do trans women say it’s not safe for them to go into male bathrooms. Or are only women expected to share space with their oppressors, because nobody believes men are our historical and systemic oppressors. would they ask this of any other oppressed population. Something something that Andrea dworkin quote where pointing out the sex class system makes people accuse you of endorsing and perpetuating it

"She has become undone, she broke her body into pieces. To live the ritual: to take joy in the customary flights over the meadows, and to sink into the abyss. A month in the garden of existence. A dream born in the golden dawn, later nestled and became silent in the bosom of a mourning Eden. To consume a butterfly is to taste the rare nectar from a withering flower. To bear witness to the subtle heartbreaks of the world. Every movement of the wings is a sigh. I have become undone, I broke my body into pieces."

This is a post on "Ethical pornography" I made in 2022. People love to use "ethical" and "choice" arguments, however these do not hold up against any scrutiny. And after seeing that pornhubs trending searches are often of war refugees or media that has been proven to be non-consential (Lana Rhodes), you could not make me believe for a second that the end viewer cares at all about the ethics involved.

#was listening to an interview with this woman who was groomed as a teenager and got into an abusive marriage with him and he coerced her #into doing camwork and 'couples porn' & shit that i often see people touting as ethical because 'clearly its a consenting Real Life couple' #and 'supporting independent creators' #like you dont know whats going on behind the scenes

the amount of times in the past ive been yelled at for spreading "transphobic myths" when i brought up minors going on hormones and getting surgery. apparently this was a horrifying concept only a reactionary transphobe would believe and spread lies about. now theyre realizing they cant cover up the truth anymore so now its actually transphobic to not fully embrace minors undergoing surgery. because its just like ummmm. abortion 🥰

#the causal phrasing of it....'for some yeah sure it could be surgery i guess.... and other kids get a haircut.' #so sinister #my 13 year old relative was put on testosterone and whenever i used this as a point when i was getting into a debate with someone they #accused me of lying

“what’s a female?” “what’s a male?” well, what does afab and amab mean? what’s the biological difference between a transman and a transwoman? who is “transmisogyny affected”, and who isnt? what’s the difference between the surgeries that transwomen get and the surgeries that transmen get? who can be a transman? who can be a transwoman, and who can’t?

stop acting stupid, you all already know the answer

[awoman-is-alive]

this post is insane. first i was like "lol they try so hard not to acknowledge biological sex but end up using afab and amab as equivalents to the words 'male' and 'female' anyway. theyre acknowledging female oppression" but by the end of the post the males picked up on it and are yet again taking away a way to recognize and describe female oppression. what word should we use then if afab no longer suffices. they dont want there to be a word at all

whenever i watch videos of genderfluid/nonbinary/begendered people explaining their identities they allllways somehow always convey "gender roles are stupid and i shouldnt have gotten in trouble for liking dresses as a boy" and "i was a boy who liked dresses so therefore im not a boy" at the exact same time. "ohhh people put too much expectations on girls to be feminine and ladylike but im special and genderfluid because i didnt like bows and some days i like to be masculine." so basically people told you "girls/boys dont do this" and you agreed? but somehow in a "countercultural subversive fuck gender" way? explain. like when these people are being interviewed or on podcasts or whatever the person interviewing them never picks up on this. i saw someone recently expressing disappointment in alice cooper being "transphobic" (idk what he said something about transitioning being a fad) and she was like "i cant believe he would say that considering how much hes always played with gender (eg wearing makeup...) and also his name is alice???" like is it incomprehensible to you that a man can wear makeup and have a feminine name? you agree that gender is clothes then? how can you claim to be anti gender roles but then act this way. i wish at least some normie interviewer/reporter during educational "i spent the day with a nonbinary person!" videos would question the blatant contradictions because i want to know what the response would be

I love how we are supposed to think that men have a monopoly on logic and rationality when one of their favorite problem-solving strategies is “kill my entire family and then myself”

damn....thank you for sharing

i genuinely wonder if there are going to be young people who were raised in gender ideology who honestly do not know that homosexuality exists. like as of now i mostly come across people who are old enough where they grew up knowing about same sex attraction, who remember the fight for same sex marriage, but now are working to unlearn that whole concept in favor of gender based attraction. but are there going to be children raised in kweer begendered postmodernist circles who will never be introduced to the reality of biological female people who are naturally exclusively attracted to other biological female people… like theyre teaching the genderbread person to elementary schoolers. bisexuality is being taught as “two or more genders.” lesbian is “non men attracted to non men.” if you ask how lesbians have sex they include people with penises in the equation. this is the information being given to young people now. they arent unlearning anything from the 90s and early 2000s, this is the first thing theyre being taught about sexuality

honestly now every time someone tells me “trans people exist” im going to respond with “homosexual people exist”

"trans people exist" ok but do you think that actual gay people exist? or is sexuality "fluid"? do you think lesbians exist or is she not a real lesbian if she wouldn't date someone with a penis?
