Side blog. Just want to keep here posts that I’d love to share on main but I’m too scared to. LGBT, not queer. Gender critical. For the abolition of prostitution, pornography, surrogacy, gender, and any other form of sex-based oppression.

[thefutureisdyke-deactivated2018]

when we say trans women are male and trans men are female, we are not saying they deserve to be discriminated against or that their dysphoria doesn’t matter. we are saying biology exists and matters in certain contexts.

when we say we won’t date trans women because we’re lesbians, we are not saying trans women don’t deserve to have happy, fulfilling relationships. we are saying that we are not romantically or sexually attracted to them and so that neither of us would have a happy, fulfilling relationship if we dated.

when we say we are gender critical, we are not saying everyone should be gender-conforming. we are saying the opposite, that men and women should be free to dress and act however they like instead of being forced into certain gender roles based on their sex.

when we say female-only safe spaces are important, we are not saying trans-only or mixed safe spaces aren’t also important. we are saying that based on our biology, women have certain shared experiences and face specific oppression that we deserve to be able to discuss among ourselves.

when we say one thing and you hear another, that isn’t our fault. when you’re ready to listen to what we actually believe or to have a genuine discussion, we’ll still be here.

but SeX WoRk iS WoRk and it makes women safer when it has government oversight, right?

[eve-was-framed]

anyone who seriously thinks having any government involved in the prostitution of women would make things better clearly doesn’t understand how misogynistic even the most “progressive” governments on earth are.

they will always side with the pimp, their laws will protect the pimps and the rapists over the women, it will not make women safer, ever. it is a fundamentally misogynistic industry designed to cater to the evil desires of the worst people on earth and none of us can know true liberation while the most vulnerable among us are for sale.

Reminds me of the German woman who lost her unemployment benefits for turning down a job at a brothel.

If sex work is work, they can require you to do it.

i cannot explain how the phrase "los abusadores son hijos sanos del patriarcado" (abusers/rapists are the healthy sons of the patriarchy) changed my life. when you're faced with statistics, when you realize women are at higher risk around men they know and trust, it really changes everything.

and when you realize rapists aren't just some creepy-looking guys walking at night, that phrase helps you understand a rapist can be a man close to you, a man you know, a man you trust, a man you think would never do that, any seemingly well-adjusted man.

and given how hard latinamerican feminists are fighting to bring justice for women murdered by intimate partners like boyfriends and husbands and fight for abortion rights for little girls abused by male family members, we can't dismiss rape as a crime only committed by terrible men who can't adapt to society or say "real men don't do that".

it could be any man. that's the point.

Well said.

Prostitution happens when one person wants to have sex, and the other person does not. If both people wanted to have sex, no money would need to be exchanged. Men use money to override your no. They have total and complete control of the dynamic.

Most prostitution is drug addiction and trafficking. I don't seen anyone empowered there.

[auroraapplepie22]

Sucking dick for heroin money because it's either that or be dopesick is so not empowering, it's not even funny.

Being dopesick while homeless is a death sentence. No place to rest, no food supply, no clean clothes, having to walk and walk to get free water. Being dopesick while homeless is quite literally not an option. So obviously you would choose prostitution but in that case, it's really not a choice. Is it?

Lesbians, everything you do to share your experience matters. Even if it's just a little bit. Your song about lesbian experience matters, your poetry about lesbian experience matters, your book about lesbian experience matters, your text about lesbian experience matters, your video about lesbian experience matters, your posts on social medias about lesbian experience matters. Even your little fanfiction with a lesbian main character matters.

In this world, lesbians are silenced. We never hear about our experience, see it talked about or represented. Everything you have to say about what it's like to be a lesbian matters. And it's incredibly meaningful for the young lesbians reading it or listening to it.

So go on, make this post about the crush you have on this girl or this long text about what it felt growing up as a female homosexual. Make this joke about lesbian sex, write this song, make this video. Even if you find it silly or useless. It matters.

Once again for gender ideologues, segregation of the sexes is not comparable to racial segregation. Using this comparison is usually racist and unbelievably ignorant.

Racial segregation was put in place to alienate, disenfranchise, degrade, and control Black people in America. Any spaces that were accessible to Black people were usually put in inconvenient places and made with lesser quality. They could be jailed, beaten, or murdered for daring to use white facilities for ANY reason.

Black men and women have the same needs as White men and women. Segregating schools, restaurants, water fountains, and public areas was not for the protection of either class. It was meant to oppress. This is not the same as women fighting for their own protected spaces.

Sex segregated things like bathrooms, locker rooms, gyms and even schools emerged from the fact women were literally not allowed to be there in the first place. Feminists had to fight for a public bathroom, they had to fight for the right to an education. Even when women were legally allowed to have jobs and attend school they were subjected to mass amounts of sexual and physical violence.

Women created female only spaces for themselves. For their protection in public spaces that they have every right to occupy. Black women have the same need and right to safety from men that White women do.

Trans women are not being denied access to public spaces. They never have been. They can use public bathrooms, locker rooms, and gyms. They have never historically been banned from getting an education, having a job, being able to vote, getting an abortion, or owning property. They never had to use a 'trans only' water fountain, lest they be jailed or beaten.

Trans women just want access to female only spaces because it validates their identity. It doesn't offer them any real opportunities that they didnt have before. This is why its racist to compare the plight of Black women to Trans women. It completely ignores the aspect of sex based oppression. Trans women have the privilege of being born male. They have never had to experience sex based oppression and they never will.

Stop comparing Black women to men. Its racist.

[hurupasyt]

The comparison is especially sinister because sex segregation has already happened, and it was to discriminate against women. The female class was kept away from jobs and schools and rights. That's literally what we are trying to fight, by creating spaces for us to congregate and shed our woes. An accurate comparison would be transracials demanding access to whatever spaces we Black people have carved for ourselves, our schools, our churches, our communities, our rights, demanding centrestage in anti-racist movements.

NO ONE IS OWED SEX

women should not have to bare the burden of male depravity. our bodies are not commodities to be used as the solution for outcast men.

[rosy-cocoa]

there is nothing the patriarchy hates more than women and girls with boundaries, loud emotions and thoughts, and the ability to say "no". it's insanely difficult to maintain or recover these qualities, and almost everyone, with varying motivations, will try to destroy them, but please don't give up, even if you can only hold on in your head and your heart - you are strong and courageous. keep standing up for yourself and for each other <3

"It is a tragedy beyond the power of language to convey when what has been imposed on women by force becomes a standard of freedom for women: and all the women say it is so."

Lesbians have been making jokes about not liking dick and only liking pussy for years. We’ve been calling ourselves vagitarians, joking about not needing to worry about pregnancy, hearing about dick and saying “ew! if I wasn’t gay before…”, and so on. I’m sure straight people never liked this, but now it’s some huge problem because straight people decided they wanted to be gay too and therefore that actual gays needed to be attracted to them. It’s crazy that they stomp into gayness and start getting angry with us for shit we’ve always done lol. Clearly you aren’t actually gay if you get so upset at us for behaving as we always have as homosexuals 💀

While reading "caliban and the witch" and "women as wombs" I was struck by the realization of how similar Mechanical Philosopy's and christian ideas during the industrial revolution sound to today's transhumanism-queer theory-trans activism-liberal feminism (and the rest of Donna Harraway's fandom) . I also draw the parallel between the two historical periods - intense evolution of technology and society.

Here's the table of these similarities. Any thoughts? 🙏

yupyup. (Have you read Jane Clare Jones' essay she wrote in response to Donna Haraway's thing by the way?)

[gynoids-over-androids]

No but THANK YOU so much for telling me abt it!! I'm a massive Haraway hater and will read it right away 💯💯

Postmodernism -> Transhumanism -> Transgenderism (etc)

None of these address oppression in any meaningful way.

"Research... tells us over and over that when men kill their female partners or ex-partners, it usually follows months or years of abusing her. On the other hand, when women kill their husbands or exes, it's usually after months or years of having been abused by the man they have killed." - Kerry Daynes, The Dark Side of the Mind

A study that was done by Hannah Scott, a professor of criminology, and Katie Fleming of University of Ontario, only documented 7 female family annihilators in the last 40 years.

Men are typically fueled by revenge or anger, Scott said. Financial crises, domestic violence and a recent divorce or estrangement are often cited as factors. That's not true for women. Mental illness or a reaction to years of battery or abuse are more commonly present, as are premeditated family slayings.

Females make up 58% of family annihilation victims and are more likely to be victims of familial murder

93% of perpetrators of family violence were male

78% had been imprisoned for crimes against women, half the victims being children under the age of 18 and a third being children under the age of 13

Family murders were responsible for 43% of all female murders in 2002
