“why do you hate men?”

do i? do i hate men? i don’t think so.

hatred is rape. hatred is femicide. hatred is the fact that women are most likely to be murdered by their boyfriend or husband. hatred is nailing dead rats to female safe spaces. hatred is making majority of women afraid of what could happen to them if they go outside at night. hatred is intentionally invoking fear in women just because you can. hatred is female genital mutilation. hatred is the husband stitch. hatred is getting off on women’s abuse, suffering, and degradation. hatred is objectification. hatred is dehumanization. hatred is sex trafficking. hatred is the buying and selling of female bodies as if they’re an object. hatred is being disgusted by women’s natural bodies. hatred is expecting women to shave off every inch of their body hair and cover their faces so they live up to your expectations and ridiculing them if they don’t. hatred is making women ashamed of their natural bodies.

if you want to call my anger and frustration at men’s behavior “hatred”, than my hatred is reactionary. men hated us first. misogyny and misandry are not the same.

[believesinpatterns]

I never want to hear anyone cheapen and degrade and commodify sex ever ever again because a genuine & caring sexual connection between people is one of the most special things out there. if someone touching you doesn’t feel like you two are developing your own secret language then don’t touch that person. so sick of this bloodless intimacyless chemistryless culture around sex because good sex is one of the last pure things in this universe. the pornographers and pimps and patriarchs want to take this from us DO NOT LET THEM

[fatluka]

getting mad whenever lesbians tell some of you to kill your stupid bum deadbeat lazy broke unemployed ugly loser cheating lying headass boyfriends is ridiculous because we’re literally rooting for your wellbeing.

[fatluka]

do not rant about your boyfriend if you don’t want to hear me say you should either kill him, cheat on him, or dump him. i will never tell you to stay with him and work it out. your soulmate isn’t a man who doesn’t give a fuck if you live or die.

imagine if flat earthers went around and said "telling me the earth isn't flat is literally VIOLENCE. reminding me that the earth is round literally causes me to spiral and makes me want to commit suicide."

[daisybeam]

exclusivity is projected onto radical feminist views on a shocking level… a statement like ‘female people deserve safe spaces’ gets interpreted as ‘only female people deserve safety and we want all other people harmed/dead’. even innocuous shit like ‘women are oppressed’ gets turned into ‘men have never had a single problem and if someone brings up a man who had a tough life my ideology will quite literally implode’

[gloomyrelaxing]

3rd rule of misogyny: Women speaking for themselves are exclusionary and selfish.

I have nuanced views on motherhood in general but I also genuinely believe the vast majority of women would be happier not having kids. The position of motherhood under patriarchy is more miserable than it should be and would be if the world were perfect, but it isn't.

Flipping the narrative here i love small talk and i’m very good at it. I love saying “thank god we had that rain!” And “the construction downtown is CRAZY” it gives me a rush

How did you decide to transition/continue transitioning once you became a radfem? I'm a masc lesbian with gender dysphoria and sometimes I really want to transition but idk if it would be right or if I even should. How did you reconcile it?

Honestly I only became a radfem a few months ago. I found the reddit LGBDropTheT and realised I actually agreed with their views, and from there I discovered the gender critical viewpoint. This meant that I was already five years into my transition before I started questioning trans stuff.

I'm going to be honest with you. I don't think you should transition. Only you can make that decision, but you could go into any trans-positive space and they'd all tell you to transition. Without even knowing anything about you.

Transitioning is committing yourself to a lifetime of dysphoria, insecurity, medical issues, and discontentment. I did it before anyone told me that.

I do not regret my transition at all, because I'm happy. (That's why I can talk about it as openly and critically as I can). But that's because I've got to the point where I can accept I'm female, I always will be, I can never be a "real" man, and transitioning will cause me health issues, plus a body that's basically a mix between male and female. If I'd have found radical feminism before I found transgenderism, I wouldn't have transitioned.

I put together some points for you to work through and consider.

You're a lesbian. Could it be that you have internalised homophobia, and that's driving you to want to become a straight man?

Do you have any (masc) lesbian role models to look up to? Ones that you admire and can see yourself in? If not, you may feel disconnected from your womanhood, and that's why you're so dysphoric. Read about lesbians and their stories, join the lesbian community to meet people who are like you.

Did trauma occur in your life that makes you want to escape being a woman? If that's the case, you should explore therapy to help you deal with it. Transitioning won't make you feel better or fix the root issue.

Do you know about the health risks of transition? The effects of hormone therapy on the female body, SRS risks, etc. Before you do anything, consider if you'd be willing to risk all that. Remember that trans people are just guinea pigs. The effects of HRT are not well documented.

Therapy can help with gender dysphoria, especially if you try to find the root cause of it.

If you are already hanging out in gender critical spaces (my blog!), you haven't been sucked in by the trans-affirmative narrative. You're already uncertain and not sure if transitioning is a good idea. People who were 100% sure have still regretted their transition.

Please feel free to message me any time. We can talk things through and your identity will be totally safe with me. I hope what I've said helps you in some way. I wish you all the best and hope your dysphoria lessens.

Does working out and developing muscle mass help with dysphoria? I’m not going to transition and I’m working on letting myself be more masculine but I’m always going to have dysphoria and want to find ways to handle it.

Happy International Women's Day to proud misandrists, radical feminists, actual lesbians, active separatists, women and girls who mean it when they say "KAM," women and girls who don't "heal correctly," women and girls who are bitter and rude to men IRL, women and girls diagnosed with psych conditions as a result of male violence, women and girls who see gender ideology as backwards bullshit, women and girls called "TERF" and "SWERF"

Never let the current hegemony convince you that it's a sin or a moral failing to reject any and all forms of male worship. Never let liberal feminists convince you that appealing to male porn addiction is praxis. Today's fauxminism and queer theory will never be unveiled as the male power props they actually are without women and girls like you continuing to loudly resist.

[genderisareligion]

Happy International Women’s Day to the immigrant women who made my breakfast this morning, the women who know next to nothing about feminism, the women who know all about but reject feminism, the women who don’t call themselves feminists but live lives that center women, the woman 20 years older than me who’s taken me under her wing lately, the older women “no young woman wants to become,” the women who hate me, the trans identified women, the women who think homosexual women are evil

My fight is for the liberation of all females regardless of how they feel about me, themselves or other females. We all deserve freedom from male hatred, surveillance, and violence

[chiaralbart]

Happy International Women's Day to ALL women ♀

to be women centered is to understand that no amount of rape can be justified. if one man commits rape for an ideology and 100 men commit rape for a different ideology, the women centered feminist says "here are 101 rapists."

While I still have a long way to go, radical feminism has made a huge difference in how I view my body. I’m learning to no longer base my worth on my appearance, I’m asking myself why beauty standards exist and how in the grand scheme of things conventional attractiveness doesn’t mean anything.

I’ve said this before but: if your feminism isn’t coming from a place of radical love and empathy for all women, I’m not really interested in it tbh

[scentofcedar]
