Is it not patronizing to claim that women are unintelligent to the point of always falling for social conditioning and propaganda and that women's decisions are always informed by such as a result? Because that is the notion that radical feminism is promoting and has been ever since I became acquainted with it.
Women are adults capable of making informed decisions and this fact remains true even if you believe that said decisions put women in a worse light. Besides, not only is this denial of women's agency patronizing, it is also offensive to the women from developing countries who continuously make decisions that do not involve exploitation or abuse under much worse pressure only to be lectured by western "feminists" on how impossible it is to achieve.
stumbled across an interesting subreddit today
Next time someone tells you women are meant to have children blah blah blah have them look up what a placenta is. We are so misinformed about the female body that despite most of us hearing that word before, we don’t really think about its role. The placenta is built by the embryo (not the mother) to essentially hide itself from the mother. Because otherwise she would KILL IT. It’s a foreign body with half of another person’s genetic code. Also we all have heard about the hormone HCG but most of us hear of it in regards to pregnancy tests and not the fact that it forces the mother’s uterus to start secreting a protein to feed the embryo. With every pregnancy, the fetus and mother are in competition. The fetus wants to grow and the mother tries to protect herself and not DIE. we are capable of pregnancy, we have the organs necessary to birth new life. This does NOT mean our organs are for anyone but ourselves. Every part of you is there FOR YOU. Regardless of what anyone might say. Don’t be ashamed of not wanting children. Don’t feel like a broken woman for not being able to have children. Don’t let anyone tell you your sexuality is wrong because it doesn’t result in offsprings.
A lot of animals don't breed when the conditions will be unfavourable to the baby. Some human pregnancies I see these days, I'm just like wow rodents beat you at thinking......
“tomboys are such pick me’s, why can’t they get over their internalized misogyny and just wear makeup and start shaving” probably hits so hard if you’re stupid
"Men in dresses are seen as bad, but women in pants aren't!"
is not the statement that "men can't be feminine but women can be masculine in society" that you think it is.
Let me introduce: women with facial hair. Full beards. Mustaches. Bald women. Bodybuilder women. Women with visible body hair. These aren't "more acceptable" than men in dresses.
Pants don't have a gendered association anymore, while dresses do. There is something to be said for that, but it certainly ISN'T "masculine women are acceptable now."
