Profanity and Misogyny
"Motherfucker", "cunt" , "bitch", "Whore" etc. are words that are so commonly used in colloquial language that one almost forgets the nuance attached to them. In almost every language there exist a myriad of swear words that refer to the degradation of the female vagina. A woman's sex is seen as her badge of shame and if she has control over her it then she has become astray from the path of the virtue.
"To insult a man, you insult his woman". I remember awkwardly shuffling in my seat, getting very uncomfortable when male peers would call each other "motherfucker" or "cunts" so casually. A woman much older than them was reduced to her sex, a tool to insult their friends. My sex- the organ that I was born with- was a sign of weakness. If you are meek or a coward you are a "pussy". In my language, I could never find the word equivalent of vagina, for it was too sexualised to use in society. Before I was even old enough to understand the workings of my body, a organ that I had been born with was left redundant to its function to please a man-villified by porn.
"Fuck" is seen as an insult because men consider sex a defiling act that takes away the dignity of the woman. Another misogynistic implication is the term "deflowering"; having sex takes away her innocence. After sex, the woman is not a human to them but a "cunt". The sexual paraphernalia of a woman is associated with purity. There is such a huge emphasis that is put on the concept of virginity, because it brings control to the patriarchal society over a woman's autonomy.
The sexual liberation of 70s was brought as a rebellion to these norms- young women were groomed into thinking that sex is empowering. Hookup culture also emerged as an aftereffect of the sexual liberation. The politics of a woman's sex is argued all day while the male penis remains as a neutral organ despite having been a tool to oppress women.
Sex is a completely neutral act of pleasure that is neither degrading nor empowering. However, this statement would only exist in a vacuum. Men use sex as a form of violence upon women-rape is a political tool. For women to take back control of their sexual autonomy, they must acknowledge the politics of sex-or lack thereof. Selectively choosing whom you are having sex with is the first step.
I implore everyone to stop using degrading profanities that have misogynistic connotations. When others around me --especially men-- use these swear words, I ask them why their insults always involve a woman to be degraded and humiliated. Not acting as an accompalice to patriarchy, not keeping quiet against the patriarchal violence and spreading word against misogyny is the best silent mutiny.

I have to ask some of you, what is your feminism for? What are your goals? What do you want?
Engaging constantly with trauma can be agonizing. I think some women, in the pursuit of deepening feminist consciousness of oppression, forget to keep sight of what this is for.
We aren’t waiting for the revolution to have joy. We aren’t waiting for matriarchy to have female oriented spaces and friends.
Women feeling joy and love and peace with other women has to be crucial to this process and the end result. That requires kindness, empathy, and acceptance that women will be different than you and that you still have to choose them over men.
Even women with a deep feminist consciousness are unlearning the ways that we don’t empathize with other women. We were all taught to compete for male attention. And this is by no means necessarily sexual in nature; it’s equally true from women betraying other women for male romantic advances to women who only want sons because “boys are easier” to lesbians who engage in objectifying locker room talk with male coworkers to women who talk over their female coworkers to women who laugh at sexist jokes and women who pay male employees more.
The hard thing is that we can’t force other people to change their behaviors. What we can do is consciously model that other behaviors exist. So spread some joy. Appreciate the other women in your life. Look for art by women. Read books by women. Go out to dinner with women. Be kind to women. Give women the benefit of the doubt. Give women, whenever it is safe, second chances.
Class solidarity, separatism, love, whatever you want to call it.

A man's curiosity is welcomed, a woman's curiosity is punished
There are so many stories from the likes of pandora and her box, eve and her apple to the blue beard's wife and her key in countless cultures that serve as a reminder for women of the consequences of them asking questions. Men are afraid of the vast potential of a woman's mind therefore they try their best to suppress the intelligence of women around them. They know that once all women seek the truth their regime will crumble so they forbid women from pursuing education, advertising reading as an "unattractive" trait and punishing the inquisitive woman. A curious woman is the biggest threat to patriarchy. This age of anti intellectualism in women needs to end soon. Being a "Dumb Bimbo Tradwife" is not a feminist choice. Read, learn and spread your knowledge among woman. Our curiosity is our greatest weapon.

Girls~
Ticklish girls...? Ticklish PLAYFUL girls 🌻
You know, the ones that have a bubbly giggle and a smile that shines brighter than any star in the sky? The ones that provoke you into tickling them but they squirm out and now you gotta chase them 🙄
The girls that love pestering you when you're busy, the girls that'll call you for no reason other than to hear your voice, girls that laugh at anything, just because you're the one that did it... I'm not even talking about tickling anymore I just love girls
