Interesting how men always cry about "but men work hard jobs in construction and mining, why won't women do it? Gotcha feminists!" OK but if you want more women to work in these industries what do YOU do for it?
Do you fight to eradicate harassment from their colleagues? Do you offer women juridical help to sue for discrimination and harassment from men in these industries? Do you fight so that instrument and machines manufacturers produce objects that cater to women's bodies ergonomically? Are you in an org or a company that produces or distributes female workers protective garments and accessories that are THEIR sizes? Are you in an org that promotes trades to young girls? That does trades workshops for women and girls? Do you maybe sponsor programs in trades to women who want to do a career switch? Do you fight for female workers' rights?
No? You don't do anything like this? You only complain online? And feminists are the only ones doing this shit? Interesting.

I love how @runwaylooks asked us what radical feminist has done and continues to do to this day, and then immediately deletes the post. 
Anways...
1. Arab radical feminists liberating women across the Middle East (here, here)
2. African feminists bringing exposure to and addressing issues such as FGM and menstrual stigma. Examples include Laetitia Ky, Hibo Wardere, Sylvia Chioma, Nomcebo Mkhaliphi who you can all read more about here, since they were all under attack by trans activists over their activism.
3. Radical feminism rising all across Latin America, addressing issues such as femicide and abortion rights (here, here, here). Speaking of radical feminism in Latin America, you can watch this discussion with Bruna Santiago, the co-editor of Radical Feminism Magazine QG Feminista (a radical feminist magazine in Brazil) here, including other radical / gender-critical feminists. These are all comprised of women who work to bring awareness to women’s sex-based rights, among other feminist topics in Brazil (femicide, abortion, sexual violence).
4. Radical feminists in South Korea developing the 4B (”4 ‘No’s”) movement to liberate women in the country from centering men, and other patriarchal practices, from their lives. You can read more about it here, here, and here. Speaking of feminism in South Korea, it has actually grown more radical feminist as the country descends more into extreme patriarchy. They also address femicide and abortion rights, among many other topics.
5. French radical feminists fighting against violence against women in their country, as well as street violence and harassment (here)
6. Groups like Radical Women that continue to unite and uphold womens’ activism in various regions (here is the link to their website where you can browse around)
And those are just some, I’m sure we can find much more.

A confession blog for love and positivity
Hello beautiful womyn of radblr! This blog was inspired by the wonderful sweetradleaningconfessions who is no longer active. In light of some of the turbulence on radblr lately, I thought we needed a new space to share kind thoughts, feelings, and hype for other women on radblr.
Ask box is open, anon on. Please send anything you'd like as long as it's positive, encouraging, or kind-hearted about radblr in general or specific blogs and users you appreciate. Negativity or slights against users will not be posted and if it feels like targeted negativity, you will be blocked from the inbox.
Try to include full usernames if you want me to tag that user directly! Some I can parse out if I'm familiar with the user, but I'm sadly not familiar with every single wonderful face on radblr either.
Enjoy and utilize this space with love

"I’m a misandrist because I listen to what men openly say about themselves and I take their words seriously"

I just went through the radfem tag and honestly it feels like digital self h*rm what they are doing. Like I know misogyny exists and it’s real and it kills people but living in self-imposed fear that you have the biggest mark on your back in the name of “empowerment” (???) confuses me. Most Black feminists have included Black male liberation in their work. Indigenous feminists include Indigenous male liberation. White radfems just need to be The Most Oppressed.
It's basically a form of conspiracism. Nobody really wants to live in the kind of fear that a conspiratorial worldview puts you in, but once you're in that kind of worldview it feels like the only safe place with the only answers.

this was under a post about a TIM being sad that his girlfriend said that she was straight
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
either the "straight" one in this relationship is so far in the closet he's already in Narnia, or (and this seems to be the more likely option), his "boyfriend" is actually a female who identifies as a gay man.
also, I love how they downvoted this person for saying that claiming to be straight whilst being in a same-sex relationship doesn't make any sense, and the only explanation is "sexuality is fluid". Yes, sexuality is fluid for some people. You know for whom sexuality is fluid? FOR BISEXUAL PEOPLE. being straight means that your sexuality is not fluid. so either this guy is incredibly deep in the closet, or he is partnered with a straight woman who wants to larp as a gay man

“terfs want trans people dead”
No, we don’t. You don’t know the first thing about what we believe and you probably don’t want to. Sadly it’s more convenient for you if we’re evil, heartless monsters, but that’s not the truth. We don’t want you dead. We don’t want you assaulted or attacked or hate crimed. Some of us used to be trans and some of us are still battling gender dysphoria. We know your pain and we sympathize with you. Hell, most of us used to be trans activists before we became radical feminists. When you say all radfems want trans people dead, you might as well be saying all christians want gay people dead. It’s just not true.
What do we want?
We want female only spaces to be protected. We want women and girls’ sports to be protected. We want to call out and fight sex based oppression. We don’t want to be called bigots for being attracted to some people and not others. We want detrans people to be listened to and not ostracized. We want to protect trans kids, and part of that means being honest about the side affects of medications and surgeries. And at the end of the day,we don’t care how you dress or what you go by, we just don’t want you to force us to use language that we don’t want to.
Protecting female only spaces does not have to mean endangering trans people.
I want radical feminists and trans people to be able to have civil discussions. I want us to be able to work together to solve the problems in front of us. I want us to treat each other with respect. I want us not to argue, but to communicate.
If you see a radical feminist inciting violence or threatening trans people, please tell us. We do not condone that behavior and we will call it out when we see it, but you have to tell us. We can’t cut out the rot in our movement if we don’t know where it’s lurking.
I know this is kind of a long, rambling post and I apologize. I’m just so tired of the fighting, of the threats and the name calling. Can we at least try hearing each other out and treating each other with respect? Can we?
I’m probably going to take a break from radblr for awhile. I don’t know when I’ll be back, but I want all you fine ladies to know that I love you and I’m so glad to have met and interacted with you. You guys really have changed my life. Stay strong and always keep fighting, if not for yourself then for the women and girls that come after you. Goodbye for now 💜🤍💚

Looking for input on radical feminism information webpage
Hello all! Do you consider yourself a radical feminist, or align with radical feminist values?
I've completed a sort of "radical feminism 101" page for kindrad.org. It goes over the radical feminist framework and then details radical feminist viewpoints. (Note: this is a separate page from the main kindrad website that isn't public yet since the page is pending feedback.)
My goal with the new radfem page is to further introduce people to radical feminism, and also try to make it something worth sharing and referencing for radical feminists.
If you are interested in providing feedback, suggestions, or critique, please send me a message and I'll share the link with you! Thank you!

gender oppression is the result of language.
post modern feminists
the crux that the above statement holds is how the society & their derogatory remarks has been gender based. the common connotations that we use in daily life more often shows the patriarchal approach since the ages.
for ex : in the modern times, the women reproductive part is used as a term to symbolise a person who's weaker in any manner, who's lacking gut approach a task. while on the other hand men's weakest point - 'the testes' is again used to define the same feeble will of a person as in "you don't have balls man".
the society/the family/the group has always used language mechanisms to lower the standard of a woman. one might hear it on a daily basis. for ex : in Dangal Movie Amir Khan quoted " मारी छोरियां, छोरो से कम हैं के" at a moment it feels like wow but then you realise that even to lift up the girls spirit he's actually accepting that the bar set up by the boys is actually higher than the girls. he's actually establishing a mere fact that girls are not equal.
let me give you another example: tiger shroff's famous meme "छोटी बच्ची हो क्या" nobody questioned why not ’ बच्चा ’ which symbolises that yes the society accepts that the women are the trademark of 'crying'.
every slang which modern society uses to show the anger is based on demeaning a woman or her body parts & even the woman enjoys using such slang which shows how effortlessly the language has penetrated our mind.
once we start making ourselves of the fact that the major part of our life is governed by the kind of language or dialects we use. we can change the discrimination in any major grounds.

I hope that one day all the women who've been hurt can heal in peace from their traumas; knowing that participating in misandry won't help that process, only make them dwell on it instead.
Please take great care of yourselves ladies! I hope that one day you all meet someone who sheds some light on how good humanity can be one day. ღ

"it's not that serious" but we're literally talking about women erasure and invisibility in language, and how women only visible when they need to blame woman and highlight that she's a women and that's why she's so bad and dumb
