Translation: âI am fucking tired of the soviet car industryâ *the standard effect of touching a soviet car* *laughs in russian*
I canât get over the sheer poetry of how the car falls apart - the perfect chain reaction escalating as it travels round.
sorry if this is a rlly rlly dumb question but iâve heard a lot of ppl talk about men who were falsely accused of rape getting their lives ruined by the accusations, and i wanted to know your thoughts on this.
Iâm here to take all questions, as long as the person who asks them is willing to listen and learn. So I hope you listen closely.
The most commonly cited figure says that 5% of rape allegations are false. This figure comes on studies done on college students, of which it is reported roughly 90% do not report their assault to the police. So, if we take the number of rapes that occur and the number of false accusations, that means false accusations occur at a rate closer to around .005%.
So then we must ask, what makes a rape allegation deemed âfalseâ? The classic example in popular media is âyoung girl regrets sex, claims rapeâ. However, weâve found in research that simply isnât the case. Whatâs more common is a teen girls parent finds out sheâs sexually active and files a rape claim, that qualifies as a false claim. Also common is grown adults caught cheating, rape claim filled, often then redacted when the truth comes forward. That counts as a false claim. You know what counts for the majority, though? Let me give you an example. In one case, the police determined that a rape had to be a false claim because people had seen the accuser let her eventual rapist help her take her ski boots off. This classified her claim as a false one. The police saying your claim is false gets it classified in those same fake rape accusation statistics.
So how many false rape claims lead to convictions? A study found that of 216 complaints later classified as false, only 6 led to arrest, and of those 6, only two faced charges. And then those charges were overturned. There is simply no evidence to support the idea that false rape accusations routinely result in serious consequences.
So then how do false rape reports compare to false reports of other crimes? Letâs run some numbers. Over a 25 year period, 52 convictions were overturned due to false rape claims. In that same 25 year period, 790 convictions were overturned due to false murder claims. So that means youâre about 15 times likelier to be falsely convicted of murder than of rape.
So in conclusion, false rape claims arenât this massive issue people pretend they are. Additionally, if a man you know is acting very concerned that heâs going to get falsely accused of rape, you probably want to avoid being alone with himâŠthese men donât fear lies, they fear the truth of their actions. They fear accountability.

I typed out a response to a "Are you going to do genital inspections at the entrance to the women's bathroom?" post but OP turned of reblogs before I could post it so here it is I guess:
It [the idea that women's spaces are pointless because female exclusivity is unenforceable] is such a telling argument because all that's really being asked for when we demand single sex spaces is for men to VOLUNTARILY self-select out. For males to understand that, though they may not fit in well with other males, female spaces are still not theirs.
The suggestion from feminists is never genital inspections at the bathroom entrance, but that males voluntarily refrain from entering and that females have the right to expel violators when we can identify them. Some males do pass as females, and our request is that they respect our space regardless.
Males truly cannot conceive of the idea of simply respecting the space and boundaries of women. It literally doesn't cross their minds, so their minds immediately jump to whether or not women can forcibly stop them. The belief is that if a woman cannot forcibly prevent it, you may take anything you like from her with impunity.
"You can't force us not to enter!" They shout. Of course we cant! Forgive us for believing in your humanity and thinking that you might simply respect us. We thought too highly of you.
isnât it interesting how lots of cis lesbians are happy to have penetrative sex with a strap on and some cis girls even refer to their strap on as a dick or a cock and thatâs totally fine but as soon as itâs homegrown and not store bought, penetrative sex isnât gay anymore? and by interesting I mean transmisogynistic
Pro-tip, op: you don't need to hear a woman reject your shriveled lil chode multiple times if you respect her boundaries from the beginning.
If your dick is the same as a plastic strap, can I cut it off and feed it to a dog then? I mean, if it's just a strap then you won't be hurt right? Surely that's good? Great!
Isnât it interesting how lots of people like eating gummy worms, but as soon as I dangle a real living, writhing, and slimy worm in front of them, they think itâs gross and donât want to eat it?
Newsflash, op: thereâs a huge difference between plastic and flesh. Just as thereâs a difference between a gummy worm and a real worm. A woman wearing a plastic rod and penetrating her girlfriend with it is gay, because itâs two female people having sex. A male penetrating a female with his flesh and blood penis is the definition of heterosexual sex.
How about you just leave lesbians alone?
the gummy worm thing really is a great analogy đ sure eating a real worm might be "natural" and preferred by some, but I'm sticking to my funky colored snacks (they're not meant to be the main course, anyway)
I love that the people on the notes of the prostate tissue metaplasia post think tifs on testosterone are growing actual prostates instead of actually reading the abstract and seeing it says vaginal tissue specimens showed mutation bc of errant gene activation. thatâs not a good thing nor is it a beneficial thing. the women the specimens came from were all getting âvaginal tissue resectionâ (which I assume means vaginectomy but we canât use actual accurate medical terms anymore apparently) and probably already had unhealthy atrophied vaginasâŠgenetic mutation is such a huge cancer risk itâs not even funny but at this point gendies are so hopeless I donât even think itâs capable to get informed consent from them anymore. you canât explain the danger of things to them bc they completely ignore it to fixate on one or two words that sound validating to them. insanity
Feels like the whole world contracted schizophrenia, it's not possible....this is pure delusional and magical thinking....
This is worrying but also so funny to me lol
Letâs be real though, âtestosterone will make women grow prostatesâ is something a group of 15yo girls exclusively educated by AO3 yaoi would come up with even without that article
Sheâs a fighter
Must always reblog my queen.
Her faith in her dream, courage, determination and perseverance are an example to us all. I truly admire her. She is beautiful inside and out.
J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, has clinical depression - that is what she is talking about in this gifset
âIt makes me feel very powerful and in control as a man to get away with crossing a boundary and take something from a woman.â
Smth that I think even radfems ignore about women identifying with male characters and preferring male narratives is in stories with all men/mostly men, there's very rarely any sexual violence shown on screen. Take a classic movie like The Shawshank Redemption for instance, where the male protagonist is a victim of assault (rare as is). When Andy's experience of sexual violence is mentioned or implied, it's portrayed as horrific. It fades to black. It's shadows. There's no gratuitous scenes of groping, no voyeuristic shots of his face looking pouty and hands running along his hips. When was the last time you saw a story where the female protagonist was given that kind of dignity?
tbh I could probably write a 15 page essay on the striking similarities between trans activism and the religious cult I grew up in. like itâs actually horrifying how similar their manipulation tactics are - the way they scare people out of asking valid questions, the vitriol they spew at anyone who works up the courage to ask those questions, punishing people for thought crimes, rampant misogyny and racism, thinking everyone who disagrees with them on anything is trying to genocide them, the way they present themselves as the solution to vulnerable peopleâs issues, etc etc. itâs all the exact same shit that I saw growing up but on a massive scale
was thinking more about this and another thing that they do thatâs very reminiscent of the religious cult is hold peopleâs family members above their heads to try and get them to submit.
ideologically driven doctors telling the parents of a gender non-conforming child âwould you rather have a trans kid or a dead kid?â to persuade them to medically transition their kid reminds me a lot of âwould you rather just follow the churchâs rules in your mortal life or be separated for your family for all eternity?â which they would tell us constantly starting from a very young age.
both statements exist to manipulate people into believing that their only options are either do what the church says or lose their loved ones. itâs especially disgusting when they say this stuff in front of/directly to the kids, effectively instilling in them the belief that if your parents donât do what the cult tells them to then it means they donât really love you and they want you gone.
A few years later:
i see tweets every now and then about how âwhite women like to fuck dogsâ and it makes me uncomfortable and đ€ because if youâve read things on the porn industry youâll know that a lot of the women engaged in bestiality are forced into it, most notably linda lovelace. i find it to be in the same realm as incest jokes not being funny. but thatâs just me.
also:
and of course as i was finding this stuff, what was i greeted with?
idk man still hear way more women confessing to fucking animals than men
this study shows that out of 456 arrests and prosecutions of bestiality in the united states from 1975-2015, 86% were men and 13.6% were women.
also there you will find âStudies published between 2002 and 2016 indicated that most individuals who self-reported having sex with animals were white males ranging in age from 16 to 78 years, most of whom were gainfully employed and were, or had been, in an intimate human relationship.â
so unless youâre part of a zoophile community i donât know where you heard that from
statistics are based on whoâs caught :/
men canât do anything wrong and when they do itâs lies :/
or thereâs an imaginary woman who did the same thing or much worse, undocumented, but it totally happened i promise guys women are just as abusive and men are innocent babies uwu
Okay, so, not to derail the âporn is terribleâ and âsick males are the problemâ convo, but... can we go back real quick to the original post?
I have never seen black twitter or tumblr memes about denigrating white women to the point of saying they fuck dogs???? Can someone enlighten me? And if they appeared in WSHH video comments, they donât count... thatâs like looking at YouTube comments as a fair representation of what people say.
Nah, @astronofeminist it's actually real, it's just hard to find cuz its mostly on right wing twitter communities who get banned constantly. This song is probably proof enough, but you can look up "white girls fuck dogs" on Twitter if you wanna see people throw that phrase around like it's common sense.
It doesnât matter how many crime statistics, reports, or studies there are, when people want to believe women are worse than men, they will simply not be convinced otherwise.
(Cis lesbian here) Right, so my friend recently told me about one of her hook ups in which the girl he went home with was trans. He only found out like, in the bedroom apparently. It was fine for him, but the story got me thinking what I would have done in that situation. And like, I think I would have just left... Since I'm really just squicked out by penises and couldn't picture myself having sex with a penis-owner. (1/2)
(2/2) So I guess Iâm just wondering what I should do in a situation like that? Like, if Iâm in a bar trying to find a girl to hook up with for the night, should I like, ask her beforehand what genitals she has? Or not say anything and just leave/refuse sex if it turns out sheâs a pre-op trans girl? I really donât want to be transphobic, but I honestly donât know what I should do. âââââââ-No, donât ask before hand. And donât refuse. There are lots of sexy things that can be done without having vaginal sex. Talk to her about what she likes and what you like and figure something out. Itâs also a good idea to think about why you donât want to have sex with someone with a penis. If you understand why itâll be easier to explain and not sound transphobic if this situation ever comes up. - Andy
âdont refuse sex with people who have genitals ur repulsed by, find a way to have sex without ever seeing or touching their penis! bc lesbians arent allowed to not want sex of any kind with someone who has a penis!â
This actually made me tear up a bit. Like these people donât fucking care at all about womenâs consent do they? Not only can women not know before hand unless the male allows us we canât even fucking ask.She specifically said that she doesnât want to have sex with people with penises (she didnât even specify transwomen) and this soyboy literally tells her âdonât refuseâ as if her wants when having sex is nonexistent; she must compromise.
Stop fucking telling girls this! Stop telling women they need to fucking accommodate to men and if they donât their is something wrong with you.
To all the antis lurking at my blog who say âno one says you have to have sex with trans men/womenâ read this again and tell me how this person isnât explicitly telling this young women she has to have sex with a trans woman! If you a apparently not support people doing that than fucking call out these people in your community. Why is it only terfs have to???
â And donât refuse. â
RAPE.
This is rape culture right fucking here. You can say no at any time. For any reason. It does not ever make you a bigot or a terf or whatever. It is not transphobic to say no to sex. If they tell you otherwise, thatâs COERCION!!!
Advantages to being female ("AFAB").
Biological differences in being female are often discussed negatively in order to indicate our disadvantages and where and how we are exploited within patriarchal societies.
On Ovarit, there was a thread in which users shared some biological differences to being female that illuminated our strengths. While of course biological differences in males vs. females is directly rooted in reproductive evolutionary strategy (whether someone develops down a reproductive pathway geared towards an overall reproductive system that supports gestating life and creating larger ova vs. not) I thought I would share some examples of advantages not directly connected to childbirth and childbearing. This is not an exhaustive list.
We are more flexible than male people.
We have better stamina and endurance in some extreme long-distance sports in comparison to male people (such as in ultra-marathons).
Some animals (especially other mammals such as wolves, horses, cats, etc.) are instinctively threatened by males, even if they have never been harmed by them. This is not the case with women.
We have better immune systems and survive viruses better than male people.
We survive famines and epidemics overall better than male people.
We survive variations in temperature overall better than male people.
We have better sense of smell than men.
Our chromosomes provide us with extra protection against certain genetic diseases like hemophilia, and we have more genetic diversity.
We have better balance due to our center of gravity being lower, in our pelvis's, while males have their center of gravity in their torsos. This makes us naturally better at sports like rock-climbing, gymnastics, certain martial arts, etc.
"The male fetus is at greater risk of death or damage from almost all the obstetric catastrophes that can happen before birth.2 Perinatal brain damage,3 cerebral palsy,4 congenital deformities of the genitalia and limbs, premature birth, and stillbirth are commoner in boys,5 and by the time a boy is born he is on average developmentally some weeks behind his sister: âA newborn girl is the physiological equivalent of a 4 to 6 week old boy.â
Women and girls have better color perception than males.
Multiple orgasms.
We're biologically better suited to being astronauts and living in space (note: and this was discovered 15 years ago yet this work was never published)
Some articles (debatable on credibility) suggest that we are better able to withstand complete sensory deprivation for several hours in comparison to men, who were able to withstand complete sensory deprivation for minutes.
For unknown reasons, we do not experience the same percentage of macular degeneration that men do in space.
We have a different adrenaline response. Our hormone systems work differently and so we do not lose as much decision making ability and fine motor control as men do in a crisis, making us better snipers and pilots thanks to our reaction time.
We have better life expectancy overall.
Interesting how TIMs who claim to be lesbians get upset when actual lesbians do not see them as women because âitâs about the person not the genitalsâ but when married TIMs are left by their straight wives after coming out because they actually see them as a woman, sheâs a bitch who shouldâve stuck by them and changed her sexuality for them. Males will always expect the world to fall at their feet.

Tumblr users will defend anything, you could make a post that's just like "littering sucks and is bad BTW" and the notes will be like but what if someone doesn't have the spoons to throw trash away
Not to rain on your parade, but the concept of "littering" is a classic example of a way to shift focus and blame towards individual behaviors carried out by people who have limited ability to actually make a difference, and away from the larger, more powerful entities that actually can.
Like when I see trash in my neighborhood, only a small portion of it was actually 'littered'. A lot of it blew out of insecure dumpsters or trash bins on a windy day. The dumpster / bin design is flawed but they're standardized so there isn't much an individual can do about them.
And then there's the question of the manufacturers, who make non-biodegradable and often non-recyclable materials including plastic packaging and products, and then sell and profit from them, but without paying for the cost of disposal or recycling of those products. There is no end of life fee factored into the price people pay when they buy items. And the manufacturers often lobby to resist changes to introduce such fees.
So yeah, the concept of littering is problematic. And this is not as ridiculous a take as you probably thought it was, huh, OP?
Tumblr isn't so bad after all, sometimes people legit have new takes you might not have thought of.
Damn it's crazy that everyone else who read and reblogged this post realized what I meant except you. Almost like you were misinterpreting my post on purpose as a gotcha. Almost like that was the point of my fucking post in the first place!
