"Right now, young women are being told that their salvation lies in a movement which, rather than challenge the idea that female people are physically, morally and intellectually inferior, chooses to cut ties with femaleness altogether. As though, if we insist that “feminism is for everyone” and “women’s rights are human rights”, the be-wombed, menstruating sub-class might get to sneak in under the radar and blend in with the real humans. If you squint a bit and don’t think too hard, this all sounds wonderful. In truth, it is anything but.

For most of my life, I’ve been aware of people disguising the view that female people are disgusting, inferior beings. After all, it remains possible to treat them as such without saying it out loud. You quietly exclude them from the places that matter, feed them lies about “different roles”, pretend the harm inflicted on their bodies is random. The underlying beliefs about what women are and what they are for do not change. The difference today is that so-called “inclusion” narratives — ones which demand that female people accommodate and include male people at all times — make them more obvious. "

It’s funny watching the Oppression Olympics play out on social media. It’s fascinating to watch all the braindead people go after eachother in a gladiator style bloodbath. Like there was this tiktok made by a Muslim girl about how she had to quickly put her hijab back on in a public bathroom because a trans woman walked in, and her religion doesn’t recognize them as women so it’s haram for him to see her hair. So many people battled it out, like they always do. Trans vs Muslim, who will win? Trans of course, Muslim girl had to make an apology. Burning in hell forever is better than dealing with that crowd I guess lol. So far it’s been pretty boring lately, trans always wins. Trans vs black. Trans vs gay. Trans vs disabled. Trans always beats woman, that was the first fight. Trans vs refugee. Trans vs rape victim. I think we’re gonna get to a point where trans will beat cancer, the ultimate undefeated champion, and idk what we’re gonna do after that because that’s the point of no return. Like the insanity after that line is crossed might make me just quit the internet.

When you ask me my pronouns or immediately assume I use they/them because my hair is short, because I don't wear make up, because you recognize my t-shirt as coming from the men's aisle, because you've never seen me in heels or a skirt...

You just prove you know I'm female. You don't do this to males with short hair, no make up, no heels and "men's" t-shirt.

EDIT: Every post about mysogyny really end up with women saying "Omg the same thing happened to me!!" and men and women allied to them (here, TRAs) scrieching "noooo this never happens, you just made it up!!" uh

sometimes I go on /r/actuallesbians because I’m a glutton for punishment and here’s a post from today. This girl is sixteen. SIXTEEN.

I feel like some radfems (thankfully a small minority) treat a woman learning about radical feminism as like a magical awakening that gives her all encompassing wisdom and power. Like I’ve these people say “It’s different because you’re a radfem, you should know better, you can’t use the excuse of not knowing!”

And I can maybe understand that argument if it’s about choosing a shitty boyfriend or getting a bbl… but I’ve seen it said to a literal sex worker. Like she began sex work when she was very young, learned about radical feminism … than what? Does knowing about the patriarchy suddenly change your material reality?

It doesn’t. You are still hungry, rents still due, the sun rises and sets just the same and you still have to survive every day no matter how much feminist theory you read. Yes the community provides support and resources, and we should only encourage empowering and positive choices, but we are still flesh and blood human beings with insecurities and fear, and shaming and scolding vulnerable women will never be feminism.

(ps I only used the term sex worker because that’s what she used, she kept it vague. I don’t normally like or use that term)

Wow I can’t imagine who else would be at risk of disrespect during sex and who has their pleasure overlooked 😢

The reason they have to bring up “trans women of color” is because the white ones don’t face any violence. This is because racism is a real problem and “transphobia” is not.

I too select my deeply held convictions based on what I think is cool and popular!

You ever notice how there are no "cool" terfs? Just....bear with me for a sec. We all know terfs are fucking lame and shitty, but bigotry and stochastic violence aside, there are no good openly professed radfems in most actual "radical" spaces and within alternative and extreme art and music. This is because terfs are inherently insufferable fucking cunts in real life and they are perpetually bound to their own shitty online circlejerk spaces like on tumblr. There are no known terf punk or metal bands because anyone with the brain rot to hold gender essentialist beliefs is forced to hold it in and be a crypto-terf because they know they'd be ridiculed and ostracized by everyone aside from their little cretin toadies who froth at the mouth to participate in a masturbatory dialogue of transphobia and violence with other insufferable sows.

women’s rights honestly just have not made the same advancements as other marginalized groups let’s be real. we’re the one demographic it’s still considered okay to constantly attack. the plight of women is not seen as a real or important thing.

Women aren’t surprised that Andrew Tate was arrested for human trafficking. Men like Andrew Tate aspire to be involved in that kind of stuff. Some already are.

It’s important that as radical feminists we respond to this news by reminding everyone: Incels are a serious threat to women. Stop laughing them off as gross teenage boys. People’s fathers and husbands resonate with Andrew Tate. They resonate with hating women. These are the men who want to be involved in human trafficking, or already are. These men are raping and killing women. Men like Andrew Tate are being empowered by their audiences to hate women.

being on radblr is like unfollows someone, keep seeing the person on your dash via mutual in laws, decides i over reacted, refollows, no i was right, unfollows, idk, refollows, um, unfoll

People say men and women are equally bad but women don’t go round shouting rape threats at men in dark parking lots now do we
