some of y'all are strong, brave and invincible feminist women until a woman on tumblr.com implies that separatism is a good idea and that women should try to stop dating men for feminism and safety reasons, then there's no strength or bravery left it's literally too much to handle and you're all crying and shaking in your boots. grow a fucking spine
Another heterosexual humiliation ritual in which women attempt to “bash” men by publicly admitting to sleeping with them. No wonder men have humongous egos, why wouldn’t they? You can resemble the Mucinex Man monster, stink from not wiping properly, make empty promises, and women will derail their lives for you.
Women give up everything in the hopes that men will fulfill fairytale promises. We will call men ridiculous for believing pornography accurately reflects reality, but let women forever be influenced by Disney films they watched as children. Just as women aren’t comparable to the adult actresses being paid to perform fantasies, neither are men going to be Prince Charming.
Women are going to continue auditioning themselves and pledging allegiance to users, so ignore the blame game they participate in once it inevitably ends. Remember this is a bonding activity that women in relationships partake in, seeking to normalize such behavior. If female socialization is to be undone, no more making light of terrible life choices, or publicly announcing stupidity.
Everyone makes exceptions, that’s why the world remains the same. “Can you believe we elected a sexual predator as president?” I can, because the same people complaining, sleep next to one themselves every night. Oh I forgot, your husband’s “barely legal teen” search history doesn’t count. He’s not really dangerous, he’s still one of the good ones.
Know that almost every individual on Earth is doing the exact same thing. Excusing those closest to them, no matter how horrific and depraved. Mentally ill sex addicts are the majority on this planet because everyone serves and worships them. As long as you’re related to, or make the masses feel good, they’ll look the other way.
“Children are being exploited!” They sure are, and it’s being done by the people around you. Why should everyone else live up to a moral code you don’t uphold yourself? Weak minded selfish egomaniacs are a danger to themselves and others, so they insist there’s a thousand rules and restrictions set in place to keep things “safe.” Guess who’s left to “enforce such things? People who are no different than them, ready to bend the rules whenever they see fit.
Adults get exactly what they ask for. It’s unfortunate that children must also suffer consequences, but that’s the fault of their parents. Endorsing humanity’s abusive system is a sign of support. You co-sign with your words and actions every single day. Very few people have real reason to be upset about the state of the world, those individuals being TRULY horrified at what this place represents.
Indulging sometimes and then repenting is still acceptance. Criticizing others while condoning your own behavior is a vote to keep the status quo. Participating in the game but becoming upset when you lose is nobody else’s fault. Protecting predators is partaking in abuse. Believing otherwise creates cognitive dissonance, which adds to the collective destruction around us.
Be who you say you are.
doing exactly what misogynistic patriarchy loving males want and tell you to do doesn’t help to uphold or even contribute to the continuation of patriarchal society’s and other comprehensible takes from radblr
have you ever seen that post where someone called out how simone de beauvoir was trafficking young girls and a radfem reblogged it to write this long drawn out post on how simone was actually the real victim in the situation, with not a peep about the girls she helped victimize
And I still remeber that. I also remeber the backlash i got when I made the post :)
These women don't give a shit about the well being of girls.
Time and again I have seen them defend misogynist women and not hold hem accountable because of some stupid concept of solidarity that they don't even know about.
"supporting women's rights and wrongs" doesn't even sound funny at this point.
You are true anon. These radblrinas defend their dead idols over the well-being of women.. Mary dale was very homophobic and still her texts are passed around. Andrea dworkin's texts on lesbians opened my eyes on how lesbophobic she is. And no one batted an eye.
But what I seem to notice is that this solidarity doesn't seem to extend for lesbians, woc and marginalised women.
They hate gay males for misogyny but find their bfs misogyny cute.
They write posts "Avg white male is less misogynistic than avg man in middle east" "Afghan men hated women, so they established Taliban" while their western gov actively supplied funds for terrorist organisations and de stabalised the middle east.
Their sympathy extends only for women who uphold oppression.
I honestly believe that women who are male-partnered/sexually active/ have kids/plans to have kids don't have much to say about trans people. Since a lot of arguments against trans people is the damage they cause to their bodies through sugeries and hormones (usually towards tifs) or that they're predators (towards tims) fall completely flat. These women do have a predator with them (their male partner), so why be upset over a male pretending to be female when you don't care about safety to begin with. Second, why can't tifs damage their bodies when you also damage your own body and mind through having sex and childbirth. You are a complete contradiction. You can't be against them and yet do the same as them just in different font.
Nothing is as deleterious to modern society as religion. It blinds individuals with hatred and callousness, often driving them to commit acts of violence in its name. Religion instills a false sense of superiority in its followers, leading them to treat others with disdain or inferiority simply because they adhere to different belief or none at all. Instead of uniting humanity through compassion and understanding, religion frequently divides it. It's disheartening to see young minds being indoctrinated rather than encouraged to think critically or empathetically. Religion is a sham and I knew it when I was only a little girl.
one of the most frustrating things about the neil gaiman situation (and others like it) is people who were fans immediately moving to a different person to idolise ('well, at least we still have x author' or 'please tell me y author is still a good person') and in this situation specifically, 'terry pratchett would be furious'. no!!! you do not know!!!you have no idea whether terry pratchett or any author you like was/is a predator! you cannot take a situation in which a man's public persona as a feminist and supporter of women allowed him to prey on vulnerable women without suspicion and then look at all the other men who portray themselves as good people and say 'well, these ones are still okay though.' just stop idolising celebrities!!!!!!!
