Okay I’m slightly concerned to see osa feminists saying they explicitly told their male partners that if they watch pornography it’s over, because it gives him incentive to hide his porn usage from you and regrettably it’s an easy thing to erase all evidence of. If a man feels the desire to do anything outside the boundaries of his relationship and he knows he can get away with it he will do it every time. Please be careful, try to figure out their organic opinions on pornography before you reveal your own or impose boundaries on them.

OSA women are going to have an inherent desire to be with a man just as much as SSA women want to be with other women. Asking or even demanding OSA woman to live a separatist life from men is like Christian parents/teachers trying to preach abstinence to their children to prevent STD’s and pregnancies. It doesn’t work. Hormonal teens are going to sleep with each other, and OSA women (including radfems) are going to sleep with/have intimate relationships with men. Yes, separatism would work in making sure women are protected from men, but just like how pushing for abstinence won’t prevent the spread of STD’s and unwanted pregnancies, expecting even a majority of women to practice separatism isn’t realistic and constantly pushing for it won’t solve the issue.

... yall understand separatism is a choice and no tumblr randos are forcing it on anyone right
Some of yall act like separatists are forcing you onto terftopia at gun point to live isolated and alone for the rest of your life when really they're just girlblogging and it's getting weird

I'm gushing about my bf because I've been in many abusive relationships and I'm now happy. Simple as that. Grow up.

The term radfem covers a very broad area - just because a fellow woman isn't on the same branch doesn't mean she isn't in the same tree. An appropriate response to someone who agrees with the roots is to invite her on your branch but it is not your job to pull her up to safety.
She has to make that choice. She has to develop the strength of her arms and make the climb. No one else can do that for her. Not only is she likely to resent you pulling her where she doesn't want to go, even if you are able to sustainably use your strength holding her, she will not have developed the trust in herself that she needs.

Sometimes I swear the internet destroys common sense. Driving an eight hour round trip soon after giving birth with a newborn for the possibility of a tiny bit of baby sitting is just not a thing. Like no one would ever do this, honestly driving four hours to introduce a newborn family member is a truly dedicated and kind thing to do, it’s so crazy to try and twist it to be some kind of devious manipulation. I’ve also seen mention of ‘baby hormones’ causing irrational behaviour which is just straight up misogyny. Don’t even get me started on the dehumanisation of young children (who by the way are a vulnerable class just like women- a scrap of empathy please).

apologies @owls-garden for using a screenshot rather than continuing in the same tag or thread, but i thought this was a salient point regardless of context.
Tumblr media
suburbs are what is (relatively) new, what exists separately from and relies on both urban and rural areas for subsistence, and what contribute huge amounts of pollution to our atmosphere via simply existing and requiring resources.
living in a service economy is rarely pleasant, but it's even less pleasant when you have no other choices but to move into the city (paying exorbitant prices for housing but saving on travel for work), or to move away from the city (saving huge amounts of money on housing, but paying more to commute and gambling on your continued safety). the suburbs look like they should be the answer, but they've been engineered so that they can't possibly address any of your concerns.

I'm not saying Radblr needs to coddle those of us Bi and het women with Jakeys, but maybe a hair of neutrality? Maybe a hair? Maybe not turning to sexualized porn-influenced red pill insults?
Because god damn, I'm currently celibate, but even I can recognize that half the insults and lines used on radblr towards het-partnered women as the same lines used on male suppremacy blogs that used to run here on tumblr and are likely all over the new porn blogging sites that popped up post-porn ban. Cocksleeve/cockwhore/ insinuating that semen somehow makes women stupid/drunk/dumb/docile/mind slaves.
Like... ladies... how are we combating misogyny by using the very worst fucking examples of verbal misogyny at eachother when we disagree?

deleting this post and putting this addition instead, because i realized that i have said many things wrong in that first post, that it was aggressive when it shouldn't have been (giving the impression that i was attacking goldstar lesbians which is absolutely not my intention - i am a goldstar myself and as my mutuals know i always defend goldstars and this word in itself), and that it just wasn't phrased well at all, which just made it sound like I meant something I didn't mean at all. i repeat ; my post was about lesbians facing abuse, severe homophobia and internalized homophobia, not about women who dated men in the past and now call themselves lesbians for whatever reason.

maybe if you stop harrassing transpeople maybe people won't hate you as much! :)
ironic to send this on anon like a coward and thus contribute to the nonstop harassment radfems get just for being feminists, while in fact I've never harassed a trans person - or any person - in my entire life (I've never even sent an ask on anon before!), only been harassed while minding my own business. yall NEVER stop harassing feminists even when we aren't even talking about you. funny how i got this at the same time as this other anon. this you harassing me or just a fascinating coincidence?
my feminism isn't even focused on the gender identity ideology (GII) discourse, my primary focuses are helping women escape abusive relationships and heal from them, fighting for women preyed on by the sex industry (including intervening in situations of attempted trafficking), forging feminist networks to get access to abortion to every single woman/girl possible no matter which state they live in (hopefully internationally someday too), lesbian liberation, un-erasing women's history as much as possible, consciousness raising & building female class solidarity, female separatism & making more women aware that it's a thing & doesnt just mean moving to women's land, and much more. the fight of feminism vs GII is soooo far down my list of priorities, and has never once led me to harass any human.
in fact, I've ALSO done way more irl direct action for trans people than any of yall who harass me on here - probably more than all of you combined. check the link in my pinned post for more on this actually here you go, I'll make it easy for you. I have done and still do a LOT for trans people in need. I am more beneficial to trans wellbeing than you internet slacktivists who harass me and call me a transphobic bigot. get off your ass and try doing even a tiny fraction of the work I've done for trans people, you pathetic, cowardly hypocrite. lmfao

Every day I get on radblr the discourse just keeps getting worse. And on both sides people twist words. What I like about radblr is the female-centric community, the ideas I get from other women on how to do more feminism, and topics such as the discourse on the sex trade and how disgusting and vile it is. I can't believe this discourse about who can and can't be a radfem is still going and has now evolved into a totally new argument. I won't contribute though I want to defend a couple people like something fierce. All I will say is stop twisting words.

@kthulhu42 blocked me after puking this out. Wanted to actually respond tho, so:
First, no one mentioned entering men's spaces. We were specifically talking about women's spaces, and the fact afabs (especially passing trans men) get harassed out of them.
Second, cool. Wasn't talking about males. I was talking about masculine women being harassed for being wrongfully clocked as a trans woman.
Thirdly, cool beans.
Fourthly, you seriously think butch women weren't getting dirty looks in the 80's? The literal decade where the "lesbians are all rapists coming to molest us in the changing room" hysteria was at it's fucking peak??? Tell me you know nothing of lesbian history without saying you know nothing of lesbian history. Cuz bitch, there were butch women being ASSAULTED for entering the bathroom back then. Shit was not all fine and dandy until people started being aware trans women existed. Get your head out of your ass.
Fifthly, if you're not wary in a public space just because there's not SUPPOSED to be males there, you are an idiot AND a misogynist.
Sixthly, yes that is completely unrealistic. Your whataboutism doesn't change that. You cannot keep trans women out without harming cis women. That has already been proven and continues to be proven with every masculine cis woman harassed out of the bathroom due to YOUR NARRATIVES. You ignoring them and trying to blame trans people for it happening is ridiculous.
Tumblr media
And no, Hun, as you can read in that post, my idea of feminism is not supporting something that actively harms women for not being skinny feminine dolls.
People would take you radfems more seriously if you stopped arguing against straw men and started arguing against what people are actually saying to you. Same for if you stopped acting like trans people are a cult, before turning around and blocking anyone who doesn't agree with you.
