When people earnestly claim that gender is the basis of discrimination against women but sex is not, and then claim that gender can be chosen, they are claiming that women’s suffering is self-inflicted.

“All sports should be desegregated” means women like Katie Ledecky wouldn’t be able to even qualify for the Olympic 1500 despite being the best female swimmer in the world right now.

Maybe if she wants a medal she should learn to swim faster. It’s not like she has anything holding her back.

Except people absolutely are holding up random women who have beaten a man one time in history and using it as an excuse to put trans girls into women’s sports and women’s rec leagues and call for the total dissolution of women’s teams in general, even at the elementary and junior school level.

People aren’t focusing just on the olympians and the absolutely highest rungs of sport either from a trans inclusion or a trans exclusion perspective.

This is so annoying

Hmm.

In one situation we have adults boycotting a service because someone was fired for mildly critiquing a president.

And in another, we have adults not boycotting a video game even though the author said men can’t transition into women.

These might just be the same people, who have pretty consistent views on censorship and the governments’ role in stifling free speech.

Food for thought.

(I caught that you called them bitches as well)

This seems entirely contrary to my reading of the man for the last fifteen years…………. I don’t think I’m wrong though

kiefbowl

And speaking of Sophia Tolstoy, her diaries are just so depressing.

“I am to gratify his pleasure and nurse his child, I am a piece of household furniture, I am a woman. I try to suppress all human feelings. When the machine is working properly it heats the milk, knits a blanket, makes little requests and bustles about trying not to think […].“

She wrote this when she was 19, one year into her marriage to Leo and as she was pregnant with the first of his 13 children.

A few years later, when she was 25 or so:

“I am so often alone with my thoughts that the need to write in my diary comes quite naturally … Now I am well again and not pregnant—it terrifies me how often I have been in that condition. He said that for him being young meant “I can achieve anything”. For me […] reason tells me that there is nothing I either want or can do beyond nursing, eating, drinking, sleeping, and loving and caring for my husband and babies, all of which I know is happiness of a kind, but why do I feel so woeful all the time, and weep as I did yesterday? I am writing this now with the pleasantly exciting sense that nobody will ever read it, so I can be quite frank with myself […].“

During her 12th pregnancy she wrote about taking scalding baths and jumping from high pieces of furniture to try and miscarry. And at one point while reading her husband’s diary (which he told her to read) she found the sentence “There is no such thing as love, only the physical need for intercourse and the practical need for a life companion.” In her own diary she wrote “They ebb and flow like waves, these times when I realise how lonely I am and want only to cry…”

A few years before her husband’s death, she published a cycle of prose poems titled “Groans”, under the pseudonym “A Tired Woman”.

the most depressing quote from her diaries:

“I have served a genius for almost forty years. Hundreds of times I have felt my intellectual energy stir within me and all sorts of desires - a longing for education, a love of music and the arts… And time and again I have crushed and smothered these longings… Everyone asks, “But why should a worthless woman like you need an intellectual or artistic life?” To this question I can only reply: “I don’t know, but eternally suppressing it to serve a genius is a great misfortune.”

literally dying at this mask off moment. trans activism is actually just shutting up about feminism forever <3

and people were so shocked about the above as if they aren't the cause.

I hate when non-women make jokes about hating women. When men do it it makes me want to stab them repeatedly but I hate when nb people do it too. Like at minimum it makes me trust you less.

thought-god

I hate when people make jokes about how much they hate a gender. It just ain’t cool. It’s not very nice. I don’t see why there’d ever be a reason to do it ever.

I FUCKING HATE MEN BY THE WAY

Skill issue. L + ratio + you’re a terf + learn how to suck dick + it’ll make you less of a raving sexist

estrogenesis-eeveeangelion

imagine telling a woman "learn how to suck dick" to shut her up when she's speaking ill of men and then imagining that you are fighting rather than enforcing sexism. this is indistinguishable from the crudest bullshit that antifeminist men shout at women. you sound like some asshole on the street. legitimately, what the fuck is wrong with you. you should be deeply ashamed of yourself.

estrogenesis-eeveeangelion

"learn how to suck dick, it'll make you less of a raving X" is the kind of shit heckling men would have yelled at a hillary clinton speech in like 2007. you are marching in step with the guys who used to wear IRON MY SHIRT shirts to any event with a woman speaker. you should delete your blog.

The people who stormed the capitol with the intention of assassinating the VP want you to know they deeply condemn political violence.

while we’re on the subject, its infuriating that, to most leftists, regulating porn is a “slippery slope” to our first amendment rights being taken away, and yet there’s no “slippery slope” of the men who jerk off to, say, a 3D simulator where you rape your mother (no mercy6 or some illustrated guro of ambiguously pre-pubescent girls being sexually mutilated (dignity destruction), eventually moving on to the real thing, because once that dopamine hit of an orgasm wears off, you need something more extreme to trigger it? no slippery slope there all of a sudden to worry about?

And yet he made him a man 😀

Sometimes I see posts and I don’t think the poster even truly believes what they’re saying, they’re just saying it to prove a point.

You don’t understand why a woman who experienced rape at the hands of a man might want a female-only support group afterwards?

Or maybe why a little girl might need a female social worker if she’s been molested by her father?

Or why female athletes like Katie Ledecky, who’s currently the fastest female swimmer in the world in her events but wouldn’t even qualify against male olympians, still deserves to compete against other female athletes?

(Nice try with adding things like “book clubs” and “bars” into the mix, making it sound like women who don’t want men peeking over the doors of a changing room are just silly little girls who think men couldn’t understand their romance novels or ladies brunch culture or something. So clever!)

As we all know, being a feminist separatist leads to a miserable, lonely, small, and unfulfilled life. Since representation matters, I'm gonna use this post to show you how awful it is to live without men.

Here, my dog and I really wished a man was there to tell us how to use the boat. The peace and quiet almost made us sink.

Here, a man was sorely needed to mansplain how to grow food. I was actually trying to grow potatoes. I don't know what happened. Maybe a man can explain it to me.

Back on the boat. I fell and there was no man to rescue me. So I died.

No man proposed to me on this romantic bridge. So I jumped.

My life has no purpose. I'm sad sad sad.

Where's my man to repair the bike for me? I had to walk home. I am bitter. And lonely. And dead.

Faced with this spectacular view, all I could think was: I need a man's strong arms to warm me up. All is emptiness. I left immediately. I slipped, though. And died. Because there were no strong biceps to catch me.

That's not mine. That's some random man's. I can't manage without a man I would never. I died of hypothermia that night.

Is JK Rowling on Bluesky?

Or did someone say unprompted they wished someone was murdered and get banned for it (excuse me; that their ‘skull was split’)
