male castration anxiety is so funny like imagine if nobody ever tried to control your ability to reproduce so you just had to make shit up to be upset about
in 2022, when i dressed and acted as masculine as possible, i was treated 1000x better then how im treated now, as a feminine woman. i used to be treated like a peer to the men at my school, but now almost all my friendships with males have broken off?
men only view women as friends if they dont find them attractive/a potential partner. otherwise we are just objects to them.
(sorry for weird wording xx)
same thing with non-binary womyn. wanting to escape womynhood is so SO normal but basically no one in our world understands being a womyn means nothing but being an adult human female. not conforming to sexist assumptions and stereotypes doesnt make you not a womyn
I wonder if women who identify as men see males as the "basic, default person" in a way. TIFs dysphoria sometimes begins with discomfort toward their breasts because they've been sexualized, or the trauma inherent in puberty and getting their period, or the expectation to wear makeup or objectifying clothing - and then they think, "Well, men don't have breasts or periods. They don't have to wear makeup or clothes like that."
I wonder if it's less about truly "feeling like a male" and more about seeing the male as the standard person who does not have all these additional problems and expectations and identifying with that.
except for the fact we havent taken it back yet? and they have no right to be annoyed with womyns freedom and liberation??
I would like to put out here that feminists (me) don’t hate men
We can certainly hate particular men. Just like we could hate particular women. It’s okay to be mad at bad people, whoever they are
The way I see it, feminism is about equal rights, being allowed the same opportunities regardless of gender, and generally just being normal
Maybe we should call it gender-equal-ist
Anyways, I don’t usually post anything too serious on here, it’s just it’s come to my attention that some people think all feminists are like ‘rahhhh we hate all menn’ and don’t realize that these people are a very small minority and/or are probably joking
I can advocate for gender equality without being radical
OP is a self-admitted TERF, smashing that subscribe button per usual
the greatest minds of our generation are posting on r/meth if anyone cares
body neutrality will always be more important than body positivity. you don't need to expand your definition of beauty to include yourself. you have a nose for breathing, legs for walking, and eyes for seeing. you don't owe "beauty" to anyone. learn to be comfortable in your body without having to be seen as 'attractive". confidence does not mean attractiveness
radical feminists arent a hivemind like tras are lol, opinions will differ on different topics
it's genuinely crazy that free the nipple died
Ayy fellow radfem Sopranos-enjoyer! :D Randomly stumbled across your blog and just wanted to say DAMN I wish I'd been as awesome and aware of the world as you are when I was 13! I was deeeeep in the libfem brainwashing till my late 20s. It's incredibly encouraging to see girls in your generation saying 'fuck that shit!' The world NEEDS young womyn like you! 🤍
thank youu :) 💗 definitely went through a bit of a libfem phase too LOL
I was having an argument with a TIM regarding radical feminism and he kept strawmanning what radical feminism even is by saying "terfs are upholding gender as a social construct and are against gender abolition", whenever I tell him that's not true he keeps calling me ableist insults. He also believes that actual lesbians attracted to actual women are "pussysexual"
Everytime I feel like maybe there's some good individuals among these people I keep getting proven wrong, males are truly the worst and I hope the male loneliness epidemic turns into a pandemic
Anyway sorry for the rant I just felt like doing it
