I've Come To The Conclusion That People Who Demonize Those Without Empathy Or Criticize The Human Obsession

Been seeing some ignorant ass takes that assume that bp/sep women have done nothing for women.

I was a crisis line worker for a rape shelter. My job was to find and secure shelter spaces for homeless women, to coordinate appointments for women entering rehabilitation centers, to fundraise, to research legal records for violent male offenders, and to offer peer support and counselling over the phone for women - often for victims of male sexual abuse.

There was an incident where a lesbian woman contacted us seeking help, because she needed a place to stay temporarily, and the shelter was extremely hesitant to help her and gave her a difficult time because she wasn't directly a victim of male violence. Even though they had the means to help her.

~50% of the shelter's volunteers at that time were lesbians.

The woman who came to us was shocked and felt mishandled. I was disappointed as well and I had been advocating for her. She lost faith in the organization, which she had trusted because of its reputation. And I said, this is not sitting right with me. So I quit.

tradfem conversations : "our purpose as women is to give birth and sexually satisfy our men."

"divine feminine" trogs: "women are life-giving goddesses. Our sexual influence over men is divine and sacred."

Same damn conversation, different language.

Y'all are both boring as fuck.

I can't stand women who willingly have sex with men and then act terrified about (the risk of) getting pregnant.

Blaming women for any part of their oppression is misogynistic. Yes women are the guard dogs of the patriarchy, but because their life is on the line if they don't

.

The excuse “they didn’t teach us this at school” tells me the person has been spoon fed information at school their entire life and have become so accustomed to it, they now feel entitled to it. Everything they should know must served to them otherwise how could they know? Which is absurd since they’re the same people who know so many useless information about celebrities and who broke up and who married who. Their main problem is entitlement. Also, education main purpose is to teach people how to reason and obtain and analyze information. If you can’t do that then education was wasted on you.

The 'womanhood is based on biology, not behavior' gang getting ready to call anyone who's too abrasive, uses bad language or even just doesn't agree with them a secret male.

TRUE. So they're saying being honest and analytical is male behavior then. Interesting.

The second most common accusation after "male" for women who criticize them is "lesbian," which really says a lot as well about who they see as a problem.

parents are an extremist movement that cannot be reasoned with

I'm getting kind of sick of people saying things like "you have to be careful, predators are masters of disguise" because in my experience the reality is that most people will bend over backwards to make excuses for and defend very obviously creepy behavior from men. Middle aged men will make crude, sexual comments about underage girls all the time and usually the adults around them will laugh and brush it off, and if you say anything against it they'll accuse you of being dramatic. People will overlook obvious red flags that a man is a predator and then when the guy is finally arrested for child porn/rape they want to pretend like there was no way they could have known. It seriously pisses me off.

I believe the myth that anger turns you into the people/person that abused you was created to keep women placated and in a position where we are never fully able to take ownership of their own rage because, according to that myth, that makes you just as bad as your abusers. Please be a hater and angry till the day you die. WHAT THEY DID WAS NEVER OKAY AND IT NEVER WILL BE.

*US online activist voice* you want me to give up fucking strawberry milkshakes???for so-called """global south""" if that's even a real thing.jokes on you. fucking that syrawberry miklshake brings me JOY and joy makes the Big Cheeto angry. and that's the truest activism. so you can stick your "brown" (??what does that even MEAN) strawmen up your ass. i prioritize Real, Tangible forms of protest, such as sticking my in this glass of milkshake, over your made-up gotchas (noce try, "africa"... when you're making up name locations at least try to make them sound real LMAO) that you clearly fabricated to create division and discord among activists. terminally online people telling you "poor" (?) "people" are "slave labour" for our "luxuries" but if you actually go outside and TOUCH GRASS you'd already know that you get milkshake from the store, not from child slaves. but i bet purit culture will find something wrong with going to the store too 🙄
