Feminist linguistic suggestions:

-Stop using misogynistic insults such as “cunt”, “bitch”, or “whore”, even in a neutral or “endearing” way

-Stop using the word “pussy” when describing cowardice and referencing testicles when describing bravery

-Use female-default language

-Don’t refer to yourself or other women as “girls” unless you are specifically talking about children

-Do not tolerate other people using offensive language towards women around you

-Act confused when people call women girls, especially if the context is sexual

-Laugh more at women’s jokes

-Stop lightening your voice to please men

“People with a cervix” immediately tells me you have never worked with or cared about a huge number of people. Literally it’s so fucking CLASSIST in a country with no sex ed.

Do you have any clue how low the literacy rate is in the United States?????? 18-21% of adults can’t read at all. And yet you think they have a working understanding of the female anatomy to the point where asking if they have a cervix is more helpful than asking if they are female?

Don’t you think that people with a second language are more likely to learn the word “woman” than “cervix” or “uterus”? Or do I’m/migrant communities not matter at all?

How about this? 44% of women in this UK survey were able to identify where their cervix is!!! And that is a country with basic sex education!

Do you know what the most common reactions were to me asking for pronouns and gender identity was in social services? Anger, embarrassment, and shame. Because they had no idea what the FUCK I was talking about. Many people responded with their racial identity.

Literally cannot think of a bigger luxury than a gender. People who are taking medications to change body parts should know better than anyone how to name and care for those body parts, right? So why do all of our public awareness campaigns need to validate them, instead of reaching the most vulnerable populations?

And no, please don’t tell me that a trans man who has medical access to HRT and medical care is somehow more vulnerable than a non-English speaking migrant woman living on the streets. Which one already knows she needs Pap smears????? Which one do we need to cater to???

WHICH ONE IS MORE COMMON AND DYING EVERY DAY IN THIS COUNTRY YOU CLASSIST FREAKS

Happy lesbian visibility day!* 😊

Cosmetic surgery is not “cosmetic,” and human flesh is not “plastic.” Even the names trivialize what it is. It’s not like ironing wrinkles in fabric, or tuning up a car, or altering outmoded clothes, the current metaphors. Trivialization and infantilization pervade the surgeons’ language when they speak to women: “a nip,” a “tummy tuck.” Rees writes, describing a second-degree acid burn over the face: “Remember when you were in school and you skinned your knee and a scab formed?” This baby talk falsifies reality. Surgery changes one forever, the mind as well as the body.

Sick! I feel sick. Please, all the women out there, I am begging you to stop sleeping with XY Chromosomes. Males don't see us as humans; they are not making love to you; they just want to dominate you, force you, and brag about it to their male friends because they see us as a sex toy that needs to be broken and bragged about. Females, separate yourselves from these demons. How many examples are needed to see that males are not capable of love? They say we are submissive, but they have to continue demeaning us.If submission was our nature, they wouldn't need to always force it upon us. In reality, all males crave validation from other males; they don't love us or even like us because they are in love with their fellow males. That's why they protect the abusers, the rapists, and monsters like the man mentioned above. They like to hype those men because they crave to be like them. Like demons!

Gentle reminder that radical feminism isn't just about insulting TIMs. Go outside and volunteer at a women's shelter (if you're able, obviously). Put up posters or stickers that apread radical feminist messages and ideas. Promote women and women-owned businesses. Do something that will actually help women and girls.

“misogynist manosphere son or misandrist terf daughter”:

safe edgy reddit moment. this trans movement is just typical gender dynamics tenfold but encouraging a gross version self expression

for me the end goal of feminism is freedom: the recognition that women are human beings

Really hate how when you get to a certain age women just dgaf about each other anymore. Straight women atleast like multiple of my childhood friends never want to meet just because they have boyfriends and husbands. Meanwhile their Nigels literally do month long trips with their friends.
