I mourn for the rebellious masc 'girl' in every movie, who grow out of her manliness and becomes some asshole's domesticated wife. I mourn for her short untameable hair, which she was always running a hand through in those old photos. I see the way her fingers linger as she goes through the album with her young daughter, forcing a laugh at who she 'used' to be.
Sure but that doesn't mean an argument that is just "this thing is old and thus good" isn't a conservative mindset. I still stand by my point of the idea of "this is what always happened" being a conservative mentality.
So, does the choice of being raped vs starvation really seem consensual and not dubious at all to you? What about, say a boss that withholds raises for sex? Also, sex work is unnecessary labor and exploitive/painful for the vast majority of workers, so what is the reason to keep it? I am against constant consumerist buying and sweatshops and child labor as well to be clear for similar reasons, it's unnecessary and worsens exploitation. Does stigmatizing buying off of Shein hurt sweatshop workers in your opinion? I don't think sex workers should be punished either to be clear, I think johns and pimps should, and sex workers should be helped back into professions that don't require getting raped daily you know.
I think a few surveys, but it is true that there's not much data on that specifically. There's quite a lot of data on rates of violence, sexual and not and it's like 50%. When I look it up, most of the statistics from surveying SWers are like 80-95% wanting to leave though.
Sure but wanting something to continue to exist because it's old is by definition conservative. If you want it to exist for some other reason DESPITE it being old then ok that's not. I still disagree regardless.
Amazing how defenses for sex work are both the "it's the world's oldest profession" quote from a colonizer (which is so blatantly untrue that I'm amazed that anyone believes that) and also "you're a conservative and want to control women if you think coercive rape is wrong" So is it an ancient practice that we need to conserve or something new and progressive
Pick a fucking side
First thing you see after you zoom in is how you die
How you dying đ
In the end, its really just a tool for the ruling class to create artificial demand and has always kind of been like that, especially for larger corporations.
Sadly they were basically never honest, they used to say cigarettes are good for your health.
Iâm fine with the original concept of honest advertisement but we hardly ever see that anymore and Iâm so disgusted by what its turned into that I feel absolutely no remorse in reporting every single ad as offensive or inappropriate. I actually find them all deeply offensive and inappropriate thank you very much
What? No. Women get more economic power when they: aren't expected to stop working to have a child or if they get enough maternity leave and affordable pre-k education, when female-dominated fields aren't devalued, when women aren't told they must prioritize men and children over financial independence, etc. You know, all things we have made significant gains in over the past 50 years, but we're still not there yet. These are still the stats and a pretty common situation:
2. Yes? and it provides more bodily autonomy for women.
3. And... what does a group of individuals make up?
4. I would say that almost every political or social movement would beg to differ.
5. Women's shelters for one.
6. Just completely missed the point I guess. Maybe perpetuating the idea that people who look female act one way, and people who look male act another way (in a way that advantages males), isn't great for women or feminism?
7. Pretty simple. A patriarchy is a system that doesn't advantage males over females as a whole. A policy that I didn't mention already is abolishing porn and the sex industry by criminalizing sex buyers, and not the sex workers. Also, requiring women to be included in medical trials. And also, boycott things like makeup, which is functionally useless and just feeds off the idea that women are just meant to be pretty yet women are also not pretty already.
Patriarchy is also often perpetuated through how people are raised, aka male vs female socialization, so working to combat that would help. It's not "just vibes". It's also "don't teach your daughter that math is for men".
We used to make fun of people for saying "not all men" it was beautiful
This is just another why I donât support prostitution as an industry. When bodies are for sale, everything is on the table. One of the women interviewed said at first she thought a man cutting a large piece of her skin off was just a fetish.

HOW
Anyways you're blue mootđ„șđđ
I know about the TRA term being a TERF thing, I learned it through radfem spaces and it's just a useful descriptor.
Again you're also putting words in my mouth. To be more clear since, "I hate nazis and im a far-leftist" isn't clear enough. I hate proud boys and any of Trumps "protect women" bullshit, because it's not protecting women, it's just to punish trans and GNC people. They also definitely like gender, they just don't think you can change it. Conservatives also ban abortion and want to pass a bill that doesn't allow many married women to vote. Infinitely worse for women's rights.
Bro I have seen multiple TRAs saying that in response to some TERFs finding it miserable to be a woman because of oppression. Or saying we're just "trans men in denial". Maybe not on a large-scale, but that is what that type of thinking leads to. And no I'm not saying a significant amount of TERFs will transition because of that. Gender dysphoria is a bit like body dysmorphia, it's influenced by outside views of gender and gender roles, like body dysmorphia is influenced by beauty standards. It's not about male vs female brains. That's a sexist idea. Both are caused by patriarchal standards. Both standards are bad.
If bio sex in prison is unimportant, then why even segregate male and female prisons in the first place? The reason I care about prisons is because rape is already common. It's less about average transwomen, more about creeps like chris chan who would take advantage of it. I would say a post-op trans woman should be in the women's prison though.
I don't really worry much about transgender stuff though and women have bigger problems, especially now. However, I am gender critical/abolitionist because gender, even more so with cis people, is a way to keep women down. It's a set of stereotypes and roles, which disadvantages women as a whole, so yes I am against it. Perpetuating the idea that woman=femininity is harmful. It's a bit disappointing when progressive people want to perpetuate it and encourage it too, but I'm aware you aren't the only ones and conservatives are worse.
I don't think trans women are replacing women, that would be insane. Well, once with Dylan Mulvaney, but not as an aggregate. I just think that gender as a construct should be gone and there shouldn't be expectations for people based on their sex, or what sex they appear to be.
Honestly I've noticed that a lot of the anti-terf shit is like McCarthyism
Like the "if they talk about feminism a lot they're probably a TERF"
reminds me of the shit like "If they talk about workers rights they're probably a communist"
Like damn maybe kind of accurate but how is there no "are we the baddies" moment here?
Like seriously what is this shit bro? @oarfishing https://www.tumblr.com/oarfishing/758650339125821440/alright-im-sick-of-seeing-terfisms-on-my-dash?source=share
Misandrist fuck yeah
Also PLEASE learn the definition of oppression I beg you. Being insulted on tumblr =/= oppression lmao. Are nazis also oppressed?
When I first heard the term MRA, I was like wtf is that. I found out it stands for âMenâs rights activistsâ đ€Łđ€Łđ you canât make this shit up. Men will do anything to make everything about themselves. Bruh, they want to be victims so bad. Victims of what ? Exactly. Nobody should feel sorry for Men, they can keep cryinnn in their podcasts and forums these dirty creeps can stay mad at the fact that nobody wants or cares to be around these loser men lmao.
These ugly miserable ass creatures deserve to Be EXTRA lonely. Like please FUCK off Women donât owe males shit. Out here complaining for what exactly? these sensitive weak ass MFs. Women have been systemically barred and excluded from every institution for most of our history, stripped of our basic human rights, murdered, raped, forced into marriages, sexual violence, faced legal and cultural barriers at every turn because of Men for just existing as a Woman.
And menâs biggest problem is Women wonât touch their PEENs. Like theyâre so fucking weak itâs pathetic and disgusting.
men be like "if women are really that intelligent, why are all major discoveries made by men? đ€" as if they didnât quite literally burn women alive if they were smart back in the day
