Controversial but (some) radblr women will eat like shit, not exercise regularly enough, not take care of their physical health, let their mental health suffer as a result, be at an unhealthy weight, not know how to dress, have a shitty haircut and act like it’s feminist praxis lol as if “breaking the stigma of women being too afraid to be fat and ugly” or whatever is more important and more revolutionary than being strong and healthy and looking after yourself

Sometimes I think about how gendered education is discouraged because boys do worse in all boys settings. Girls do better in all girls schools. Coed education is encouraged so that girls can be used as a buffer to bring up boys scores.

Sometimes I think about how men are the majority of killers of women. But men are also the majority of killers of men.

Sometimes I connect these two thoughts.

#i have mixed opinions on single-sex education but reading shit like this makes me grateful I went to an girls primary school #most schools where I live are single-sex catholic schools so kids go 14 years with minimal interaction with the opposite sex #in their daily lives (unless they have siblings of the opposite sex)

have you ever stayed up late with someone texting or chatting and known as the hours ticked by that you’d be ridiculously tired in the morning but it didnt matter because it was really fun and totally worth losing sleep over just to laugh with someone and enjoy their company maybe and then the next day you keep tiredly recalling how much fun it was

#SO TRUE BABE 😘 #actually we invented this

I don't think it is a coincidence that tons of white people started using some variation of they pronouns after BLM went mainstream in summer 2020. White people had to confront their privilege en masse, and adopting a gender identity was a way for them to avoid blame for their role in white supremacy and act like they face the same oppression as black people. This is especially true when you think about how many white TRAs say that transphobia has roots in racism and reframe every racial justice issue as a trans issue.

#it’s an interesting intersection of white guilt and misogyny not being taken seriously as a form of oppression #that so many white women have become non-binary to escape any accusation of privilege

Did you know that after they switched to blind auditions, major symphony orchestras hired women between 30% to 55% more? Before bringing in “blind auditions” with a screen to conceal the the candidate, women in the top 5 major orchestras made up less than 5% of the musicians performing.

idealized feminine traits are just that - idealized. we call it nurturing so we don’t have to call it subordinate. we call it compassionate so we don’t have to call it passive. nice so we don’t have to say people pleasing. being a kind, considerate person is a good thing - but only when you have a choice. and only when you don’t sacrifice your own self respect and your own ability to prioritize yourself

Would you rather be too hot or too cold?

Personally, I’m a too cold person. I die in hot temperatures 😔 my mortal flaw

#too hot for sure #being too hot is uncomfortable but too cold is physically painful

i know for a fact that gay men do not profit from male privilege to its full extent or not at all and im not gonna debate with anybody over that cus for what?

#also wtf does “women participate in gay men’s oppression more than the opposite” mean #provide one credible source proving this is true
