I Do My Readings On The History Of Labour In The Early Industrial Period. I See That The Majority Of

oh lmao I thought, well, hoped it was satire.

I don't know if you've ever actually talked to an MRA or not honestly.

So MRAs are usually the type to say shit like "im pro-equality and that's why im not feminist", aka these poor men you're defending or maybe even you too. They also think the whole world is a matriarchy. Yeah, turns out they don't even think women in Afghanistan are oppressed, and yes I did ask. They don't think women are or were ever oppressed in general either. They are also mostly anti-abortion and even anti-no fault divorce to basically spite women.

On the other hand, feminists, yes even the KAM radfems, don't take mens rights away. Men are just mad if we also have rights, and have ALWAYS been using the same arguments against feminists. The "feminists hate men" thing was definitely popular during 1st wave feminism.

Also, essentially all of the actual polices that they say are sexism against men, are because of traditionalists, yet... it's women, specifically feminists, that are just... driving them to insanity for saying KAM at misogynists on twitter??

But good luck with the coddling these dudes though! I'm sure these men will listen to you!

Alright this is gonna be tough for alot of ya'll to hear but leftist and progressive spaces need to be more welcoming to men especially cis het white men. The more we speak bad about men the more men will go down the alt right pipeline. And obviously that's a bad thing. If we want men to be on our side we should create a space where they can also feel included because if we don't more men will go down the alt right and alpha male pipeline

So why exactly can't patriarchy end though? (other than "that's just how it's always been")

lowkey getting tired of self defeatist blackpill attitudes "the patriarchy will never end" Why not? We went from using boats to rockets in like 200 years but you think men will forever have privilege in society? Why do you think that?

I don't know why people think sex work has to be only one of these two:

Completely banned, where pimps, buyers, and prostitutes are all legally held responsible

Completely legal, where pimping, buying, and being a prostitute is fully legal and government regulated

A better solution is a compromise between the two. Buying sex work, and selling sex workers can be illegal, but being a prostitute can be legal.

Lmao sure ok?

So how the fuck would you treat a child equal to an adult?

Because from my memory, the last time that was close to a thing (aka at least treating kids who hit puberty like adults), we had child labor and child marriages, and school wasn't required after like 6th grade.

So, do children have the maturity for all that, or is it necessary to be "ageist"?

thoughts on youthlib?

Honestly I had basically no idea about this movement but I just looked it up.

It makes some sense, like for rights to education, protecting children from child abuse, etc.

However, I don't see how it's a good idea to get rid of "ageism" towards young people since it's just a fact that children are immature and shouldn't be treated equal to adults.

How about you? (you can just send me another anon message saying "youthlib anon here" or something)

evangelicals being like "god made men to do This and be like This and women to do That and be like That that's just how it is" and it's just a picture of a white man and woman following traditional gender norms makes me so insane like you boring fascist fucks. god made 2 million species of beetles. god made whales, ducks, humans, and 1500 other species capable of same sex behavior. god made fish and amphibians that change sexes. god made more than 30 different intersex variations in human beings. god, in his infinite curiosity. wake up!!! fuck!!

Yeah yeah and "communists allied with nazi germany in WW2" and "there's "socialist" in national socialist" so communist = nazi. Amazing how this response is proving my point MORE.

And now also you see this is problem with calling literally any transphobic woman a TERF. Woman =/= feminist. Most of the "TERFs" doing that aren't TERFs at all, they're conservative women who were called TERF once and just ran with it not knowing what it means. They're just TE and not RF.

Well anyways first off I hate nazis infinitely more than any TRA and most radfems I know are far leftists, so let's get that out of the way. How about you argue about my actual points instead of this weird attempt at guilt by association.

Personally I'm not really as big on the trans issue but these are the reasons I'm against the idea of gender>sex.

The entire idea of gender is sexist. No, people aren't born feminine or masculine and gendered brains aren't a thing.

Removes importance of sex-based rights, like abortion. Also implies that women can self-ID out of misogyny. TRAs telling radfems to "just transition" in response to us disliking misogyny is an example.

Allows rapist men to self-ID into female prisons or women's shelters. Idrc about the bathrooms and sports though honestly, cis men can walk in whenever and people take steriods.

Feminists shouldn't have to shut up just because other women do.

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

Well,

1. Radical feminism isn't just for developed countries. Who told you that was the case?

I can agree, things have gotten better in countries with more feminist policies, but these things certainly have not been there even in "developed" countries for "more than a century". Need I remind you the fact that 50 years ago women weren't allowed to have bank accounts without a mans permission in America? Or that marital rape was only fully illegal in the US as of 1993? And dude look, abortion was made illegal again in many states, a lot of them overlap with the ones that have the most issues with teen pregnancy and child marriage (red states). This is another specific issue.

But enough about America alone. Globally, women's rights have been recently taking a turn for the worse.

You can't undo literal millennia of oppression in only 50 years, and yes attitude and perceptions around women's rights is also important to push policies. Policy doesn't come out of thin air and people generally don't protest for things they don't think they need.

2. I provided specific policies already. It's not my fault if you can't read. And boycotts or each of these polices are just examples, not the full solution. It's a lot more complex and gradual. For example, living women the right to vote also didn't get rid of the patriarchy but it did help. Telling the suffragettes they should give up protesting and that it's hopeless for women to have equal rights however, was not. How are you going to accuse us of doomerism and then delegitimize all political activism and call it useless?

3. The ideas of male and female socialization are pretty integral to radfem theory on gender. If you had doubts, then you can just ask her. No need for charades. What tells you "that person doesn't actually agree that the problem lies in socialisation" lmao?

4. That's the thing, we're against gendered socialization in general. There's not really much to be done in policy at this time, other than trying to educate people get rid of the notion that male and female brains are significantly different or that people are hard-wired as feminine vs masculine because of their brain's gender. Gender ideology/activism did push this back a bit in the scientific field.

What are your proposed solutions or specific issues you want addressed? I hear a lot of criticism from you but... no suggestions?

We used to make fun of people for saying "not all men" it was beautiful

I think Trump has been on his period these last two months

It's so demotivating to think about how gender double-sided the political system is; can you imagine what the media reaction would be if Clinton or Harris had been elected and had crashed the stock market, surrendered to Russia, spent millions of taxpayer money golfing at their own properties, and had flipped back and forward on tariffs and regional agreements with the America's most significant allies in the first two months? It's unthinkable.

Remember Her?

you have a blog where you send weird rape threats to terfs bro

you're worse than chronically online, I was being lighthearted

Ex-trans man again, I just have to come back to ask one last thing: how can you "stomp on my womb" when I had it removed? I had a hysterectomy due to my dysphoria – why would you assume otherwise?

Aw, I bet you must feel like a defective female :( how can you be a good little vagina if you don’t even have a womb?

It’s okay. We’ll just stomp out your bowels or something. Less climactic, but it’ll do.
