People talking about the “censorship” of Ao3 and it’s just people not wanting rape porn on the site
i need more radfem witchy teen friends but all of my witchy teen friends are solidly in the libfem category
one of the main principles of radical feminism is being anti-organized religion. i see radfem woc talking about how racism affects misogyny more then i see anywhere else (as they should), and not affirming and agreeing with the ethics of someones identity isnt the same as 'really hating them'.
Radical feminism sounds so cool and great an amazing but then you look deeper and are like "do you think critically about how race and gender intersect to create unique discrimiantion for women of color?" and they're like "no?" and your like "oh so you must think critically about how religion is often a tool of sexism?" and they're like, "no?" and so you're getting kind of confused, because what is radical about it, so you ask just that and they're like "we really hate trans women and think trans men are confused and just trying to escape the patriarchy" and you're like ohhh. so you're a fucking freak (derogatory).
I feel a bit iffy about young kids in radblr spaces, so I just wanted to come in and say I hope you stay safe. Radfems get a bunch of death and rape threats. Apart from that, there are a lot of very grotesque topics we discuss that can be triggering for a sensitive audience.
I also recommend turning off anons. People feel way more comfortable being unapologetically hateful when they don't have to directly link their profile.
💯 turning off anons now! probably shouldve a while ago
Saw a post a bit ago that was like "Is it just me or is like every intersex blogger really angry all the time, who pissed in your cereal bro?"
Wow I fucking wonder why we're pissed off. Really. No idea. I wonder if it has to do with having to deal with
Being systematically mutilated legally
If you weren't mutilated, almost nobody has a body like yours
You can't research how your sex organs & hormones function without seeing baby surgery gore and reports of how everybody like you was "fixed"
Having the US president declare us nonexistent
Being told we're freaks all our life and we need fixing
Have a long history of being killed at birth
Slurs for you literally fucking everywhere including in a scientific context and if you point it out people call you dramatic
More slurs for you if you ever dare to try to look at adult material
Any and all fiction that is listed as intersex is all stereotypes and obvious fetish material for perisex people - There is almost no representation.
Whenever you hear about people like you they're referred to as having a sex disorder, never being intersex
People who support the entire framework of your excising and mutilation go in your comments to concern troll about how they don't actually support that
Having almost no research done into our oppression — so there is a lack of statistics about systemic intersex assault/rape/murder — people use this to tell you it isn't happening (despite nearly every intersex person you've met has reported being victimized in some way)
Strangers online think they are entitled to your full medical history
A significant number of people online think you are a porn trope and are shocked to find out tou exist in real life
Your gender identity is erased and ignored because it doesn't make sense to perisex people
You are reduced to a discourse topic
Being considered "rare" (because we are actively being suppressed with violence) — people use that "rarity" to say you don't matter
People thinking its acceptable to sexually harass you and ask you about your genitals just because they find out you're intersex
Getting told that you're exaggerating when you say your group has been the victim of a successful extermination campaign — & that is why we are so invisible
Everyone ignores all of this ^ and tells you that someone else has it worse than you so you should shut up if you ever decide to speak up.
Wow. I wonder.
are you Italian American by any chance? Just going off of your user
i am! 😙
So have y'all just missed every single post where an intersex person tells you not to refer to intersex animals as "biologically nonbinary" or do y'all just not care what intersex people have to say. Genuine question
seeing people make fun of victoriasway on tiktok is so upsetting. (for context she is a solo traveller and gas some tips posted to orotect yourself while staying in hotels). female solo travellers are VERY vulnerable to men attacking them, even in safe countries, and these men dont even understand what happens to kidnapped women. there is no possible way to be TOO precautionary as a female solo traveller and men will never understand how vulnerable women are in these situations.
wish i could grab coffee w my mutuals. mentally we are in a cute café right now
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)
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
