i long to hang out with other terfs
mothers love telling you the story of how a kind rich man was in love with them when they were younger but they chose the worst man created by god to have a family with instead because family values or something
learning the backstories of any of your female relatives always amounts to taking 500 points of psychological damage and wondering if the world is irredeemably evil
EAT 3 YUMMY MEALS A DAY WITH SNACKS! WEAR COMFORTABLE CLOTHES! THROW OUT YOUR RAZORS AND MAKEUP! SPEND UR MONEY ON DEVELOPING SKILLS, READING BOOKS AND TRAVELLING!!! THIS IS FOR FEMINISM!!!
In light of The Girls’ Spot gym backlash, where both men and women are comparing black women to males because black women are masculinised, getting this on my ig feed was infuriatingly ironic.
In case you didn’t know, under slavery in America black women and girls were experimented on by gynecologist J. Marion Sims. Despite the amount of pain he inflicted, he’s still considered the father of gynecology. It’s also no surprise that he is the fucker that invented the speculum.
And now comes my point.
Black women being masculinised does in no way mean they are seen or treated as males. White supremacist patriarchy always treated them as the females they are. The rapes, the forced breeding, these experiments: they all happened because
1) everybody knows what a woman is
2) slavery and the racist notion of black people feeling way less pain
allowed for an “easier” exploitation of black women and girls.
Also, white men didn’t teach sub-saharian African men misogyny. That was already there. Black women were already facing sex-based oppression, long before colonisation.
To compare the masculinisation of black women to maleness is an extreme show of misogynoir. It erases the history and the present day reality of black women and girls all around the world.
And this is the hill libfems are willing to die on, just for a bunch of delusional (and mostly white) men. I’m not surprised the sisterhood is fragile, i wouldn’t trust them either.
Anyway, i’m white so if any black woman wants to add to this post, please do so!
“women used to marry young and have a lot of children” VS “men used to marry women when they were still little girls and force them to be pregnant and give birth their whole life”.
“in the past women didn’t get education” VS “in the past, men stopped women from getting education and excluded them from all cultural spheres”.
“muslim women must wear hijab” VS “muslim men force muslim women wear hijab”.
“in this country, abortion is illegal” VS “men in this country made women getting abortion illegal”.
women’s oppression doesn’t happen by itself. women’s oppression isn’t passive. there is an oppressor class that actively chooses to oppress women, and the oppressor class is MEN.
Why does it piss so many men off online that women are nice to eachother? They can never leave us aloneeeeeeee I’ll see a post of a pretty fat girl (or a woman they don’t consider attractive) and the girls will be commenting normal and kind stuff but the men will be like “LYING FAKE BITCHES 🤬🤬🤬🤬 THAT’S WHY YOU CAN’T BE TRUSTED” like calm the fuck down
Sorry if I'm a misogynist for saying it but its so so so cringe and pathetic when a girl goes from liberal normie to a Traditional Catholic Homemaker And Wife Christian Nationalist because she started dating a racist guy. Like you are spineless and have no identity plus hes going to jack off to only fans models while you cook him a stupid as fuck eggs steak and 3 avocados pitbull birthday plate

given the new popularity of games and other media such as Love and Deepspace and yaoi and stuff, i see many men going 'SEE! women are just as depraved as men are, now stop complaining about female sexualization in games!'
and oh my god you idiots. lets take some super typical examples from popular media. what differences can we see?
note how much male 'sexualization' (more of a power fantasy on men's part) focuses on musculature, on explicit strength, power, vigor and toughness. they don't even need to be showing any skin. all these are considered sexually attractive by men and women, as a result of our lovely culture. now for female sexualization, its mostly about the showing the (unnatural) curves and arches of their body, being coy and inviting, passive and alluring. women are a spectacle to be acted upon and men are the actors.
look at the filmography, angles and posing for each image, look at how sexy men are shown as relaxed, yet towering and active, and how sexy women are dressed skimpily, are coy and posing unnaturally to invite attention. this is the standard across genres, aimed at both men and women.
imagine if you opened a survival game you were greeted with a man in booty shorts and a ragged crop top, with his back arched, looking longingly at the the player. is it the same as a shirtless man with defined abs and a smoldering look? exactly, it is fucking NOT the same. men would consider it extremely humiliating to be sexualized the way women are sexualized. if its humiliating for a man to do, its humiliating for a woman to do, you're just used to women being humiliated.
take a moment and imagine if sexy women were almost only shown as dominant, active and physically strong, and sexy men as only meek, coy and passive. now imagine if these unnaturally posed meek, coy and passive sexualized male characters were absolutely everywhere, in games, tv shows and movies where it made no sense for them to be there. imagine if they were the only male characters present and you couldn't change their looks. if this held true for at least half of all sexualized characters in media, i would cede my position and admit that male and female sexualization are just as bad as each other. until then, shut the fuck up 😘
On December 6th 1989, fourteen young women, many of them engineering students, were murdered in the mass shooting at Montreal’s École Polytechnique that was prompted by the killer’s hatred of women and what he said was “fighting feminism”. On December 6, the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, we remember: Geneviève Bergeron Hélène Colgan Nathalie Croteau Barbara Daigneault Anne-Marie Edward Maud Haviernick Maryse Laganière Maryse Leclair Anne-Marie Lemay Sonia Pelletier Michèle Richard Annie St-Arneault Annie Turcotte Barbara Klucznik-Widajewicz

i feel like another reason why liberal feminism became useless was because any woman who criticized the misogyny from non-white cultures/people was labeled a racist, and you know liberals are terrified of being labeled as racist so a lot of liberal feminists stopped talking about the oppression that affects mostly black and brown women
We have a double standard, which is to say, a man can show how much he cares by being violent -- see, he's jealous, he cares -- a woman shows how much she cares by how much she's willing to be hurt; by how much she will take; how much she will endure.

Here's an FGM survivor's response to that girl on TikTok who claimed "people focus on FGM so much because they want to tie women's oppression to genitalia so they can exclude transwomen."
Radfems: I am concerned about female genital mutilation, the systemic rape and abuse of women in Africa and the middle east, the women’s rights violations in Afghanistan, honor killings in Islam, the human trafficking taking place around the world, sex tourism, and the lack of women’s rights in many countries. Also, we need to focus on femicide as it affects women everywhere but especially in the global south.
Liberals: …
Radfems: I also hate makeup and beauty standards.
Liberals: WOW. You white western radfems don’t care at ALL about what’s happening to women in the global south. Or the abuse of women in third world countries. What about what’s going on in Afghanistan? You don’t care!!!
Funny how every single even most minuscule step in history that has allowed women the slightest bit more freedom, choice or independence has always been accused of "destroying the family and home"...almost like our conception of family and home can only exist when there is some level of coercion.
Okay tbh.
Even when I was a TRA, I felt a bit stupid when I’d say ‘trans women’ experienced worse oppression than ‘trans men’.
Because a part of me believed in sex-based oppression, but I couldn’t say that without being called a terf. So I just didn’t question it. But now I’m questioning it because… how is it that someone who was born male, was treated better for being male, and was afforded more privileges for being male can say, “I’m a woman teehee!” and all of that male privilege is just gone?
And how a female can be treated as lesser than and experience medical discrimination on the basis of her female sex, but they call themselves a man and woosh! All of the misogyny they’ve faced is gone!
“Erm well it is because trans women are women and trans men are men, so women are treated worse than men! Erm achshually this is feminism 101!”
But a woman isn’t treated horribly for saying she’s a woman. A woman is treated horribly because her sex is female. Trans men are female and therefore they experience misogyny. Trans women are male and don’t experience misogyny (unless you ‘count’ the misdirected misogyny when someone falsely assumes a TiM is a female, which is, as I said, misdirected and not an example of them actually experiencing misogyny).
So, if we’re comparing the oppression of trans men (TiFs) and trans women (TiMs)… I believe females are oppressed while males are not (on the basis of sex). So even if you’re still a TRA… it doesn’t make sense to deny reality and claim trans ‘women’ have it sooo much worse than trans ‘men’ because doing so would be denying sex-based oppression. And denying sex-based oppression is denying history.
Y’all get me?
