No extremist, manhating feminist has ever painted an uglier picture of men than the average man just casually talking about his own gender. Like men will just openly admit their “boys chats” and other locker room talk is way worse than the stuff that gets abusers and rapists convicted. They mock the concept of a man who’s remotely nice to a woman (these days it’s simp, before that it was whipped). They laugh at how unrealistic romance movies are because a man would never do any of those things for a woman in the real world. They’ll go into detail about their rape kinks if you let them. Most men are completely open about how awful they are, and they feel safe doing it because for some reason, most women won’t believe them. It’s a terrible thing the way a man will go “I’m a genuinely evil person” and women will immediately rush to say “awww I’m sure that’s not true! I bet you’re sweet and misunderstood underneath it all! I bet you’re joking! Ok, maybe you and all the men you know are like that, but not all of them!”
Your female socialization and your kind heart has you searching for a humanity in men that they don’t even pretend to have. Listen to men when they tell you who they are.

The only behavior I wish women would copy from men is caring less about people's feelings. I am not talking about family or friends, but literally strangers screaming demands at us. One of the reasons why women's issues are so much more policed than men's is because we are so easy to guilt-trip. We care so much about being liked and seeing as good women that we are letting people step on us. It's time to have more pride and less forced empathy.

If men hadn't oppressed, restricted, raped and enslaved women for the last 5000 years all the ugly, short, balding in their 20s men would have died out by now and I'll never forgive them for that

your sex is literally just your body. it is a completely neutral biological characteristic. it says nothing about you. nothing about your personality is incompatible with your body. you can act/dress/behave any way you want regardless of your sex! neither your personality or body need to change!!
baffling how this take has become so demonized

Radblr needs to start talking more about drag queens, transracialism and the fine line between satire and misogyny.
I can’t rlly be asked to write an essay rn but the general things I’ve noticed have been:
- dozens, literally, of drag queens on RPDR coming out as trans and nonbinary within 2-3 years
- white male drag queens using caricatures of black women and black femininity in their drag
- cognitive dissonance in terms of satire and gender roles. Is it still satire if they’re getting plastic surgery to look more feminine?
- the overwhelming male domination of the genre, despite the message being progressiveness
- why drag kings haven’t been nearly as popular (we know why)
- the fetishisation of femininity, and how it can be separated from other gnc gay men
Feel free to add on!

Men are so fucking insidious in their attempt to take over womanhood. The fact that there is a popular post going around saying men can have periods because they have symptoms that are similar to period symptoms is fucking disgusting and laughable. Having symptoms that align with some common symptoms of periods DOES NOT MEAN you are having a period! Symptoms are what comes with the period, not the period itself.
If someone is experiencing a few symptoms that are known symptoms of lung cancer, but their lungs aren’t actually cancerous, then they don’t have lung cancer. Something else is causing their symptoms, but it’s not cancer. If someone is experiencing symptoms that are commonly associated with a heart attack but an EKG shows it wasn’t a cardiac event, then they didn’t have a heart attack. If you don’t have a uterus, then you’re not having a period, no matter what symptoms you’re experiencing.
Acting like the word “period” refers to the symptoms of the menstrual cycle and not, y’know, the actual shedding of the uterine lining itself is fucking stupid. And it’s incredibly demeaning to the experience of every single woman who has menstruated since the beginning of humanity.

if you blame the "state of modern feminism" on radical feminists methinks youre an idiot who has no real understanding what feminism truly is
more militant (radical) suffragettes (feminists) were also blamed for the way the mainstream thought of feminism over 100. fucking. years. ago.
and guess what? those same women are the ones who helped women gain rights through their *clutches pearls and gasps* RADICAL!!! efforts
if you blame the current state of feminism on "evil terfs" and radfems, youre no better than a meninist circa 2015
radfems arent a new concept, and we won't be your scapegoats anymore
