Include Serial Stalkers on the Same Register as Violent and Sexual Offenders

[liberate-women-now]

I think this is a purposeful misrepresentation of what feminists are actually talking about. Furthermore, this argument cannot simply be dumbed down to be just “clothing choices”.

Modesty culture encouraged by religion and sexual objectification encouraged by porn are both degrading to women as a class and are two sides to the same coin (the coin being patriarchy). You have to look at the effects these things have on women as a whole and not just on the individual. This is the flaw with choice feminism; every women’s individual choices can be said to be feminist because she “chose” them, without regard to where that choice actually came from.

It’s very clear from the above comic that the OP is purposefully rewriting our arguments to make it sound absurd. The act of being fully clothed from head to toe or butt naked is not what is being criticized; prostitution, porn, religion, and patriarchal oppression is what is being criticized. It’s worth criticizing and it’s worth dismantling.

[bannedandburned]

I can't believe I fell for this kind of hollow strawman back in the day. I knew that sexual exploitation literally rewires the brain, I knew that women were being killed and controlled in theocratic fascist states, but I still judged the character in the middle. And it's probably down to sexism and self loathing. Why trust my eyes when I can pretend everything is "valid" as anything else.

“Feeling validated through men being misogynistic is what we call Ew-phoria”

[womenarehuman]

This behaviour is what peaked me, men feeling “validated” by the disgusting, violent misogyny women face in our lives every day.

I hate men.

[lesbian-lizards]

Weird that he felt validated by a man talking about how women are only good for making babies. Seems like that kind of thing is supposed to trigger a TW’s dysphoria but maybe that’s only when women mention their pregnancies in a positive light.

[ma1efique]

This is so fucking similar to the feeling of validation you have as an ED sufferer when someone shows concern for your weight. At my worst someone could’ve looked me square in the eye and said “you are repulsively thin” and I would been over the moon. The similarities between ED behaviours and gender dysphoria behaviours is uncanny. And proves this is a sick sick sick mental illness. Espeically considering the fact these mother fuckers don’t even care that REAL women get abused like this. They fucking put on their little girly voice -which is painfully obvious to women - get screamed misogynistic abuse and think its a fuckinf prize. Truly, these mother fuckers deserve no pity. This is revolting. The bigotry that women have to endure is not your fucking validation. FUCK YOU.

[womenarehuman]

Reminds me of my peak trans moment of a TIM gushing that he got groped roughly and viciously catcalled while on a night out in Spain. (These men threatened rape.)

Like, you’re gushing about being threatened and sexually assaulted?!? A moment of terror for women is not your validation tool sir. Fucking sicko misogynists.

[wyvern-of-the-evening]

Not only that but they are apparently okay with other males boiling women down to their body parts.

We say that only females have vaginas/can give birth and that’s horrible and mean because it invalidates TIMs and “boiling women down to their body parts/body functions”.

A male is mislead either by alcohol, make-up and filters, etc… and he tells these other males women are only good for being impregnated and giving birth. But that turns them on. No real condemnation of the male either.

“Yeah I just blocked him” then why don’t you do that with women? When women tell you that you aren’t one of us, why do you instead proceed to rape threats? Death threats?

They experience duping delight (their “euphoria”), and narcissistic rage.

[iinsectwoman]

the original text bubble just says “my mic works” which is actually really funny

[transphobicennui-deactivated202]

men truly do believe that their suffering is the only suffering that matters. they view women's suffering as either completely obsolete, a joke, or jerk-off material. i'm sick of it. all these people who whine about "men's mental health" can rot.

[alilloserboy]

hey guys!! So let’s never forget that the trans community carried the gay liberation movement on their backs, especially during Stonewall-only to be ostracized, then and NOW.

Also, don’t ever dull your non-cis weirdness for other people. Istg I see that so much, don’t dull being a fucking weirdo!! THATS OUR ROOTS PEOPLE!!

Never forget what the trans flag stands for motherfuckers.

[sichorean]

Thank goodness the precious TQ came and rescued all the lazy, lazy gays who just couldn't do a thing on their own

We were all up in our ivory towers like damsels in distress just waiting for someone to carry us to freedom.

[feminist-slime-rancher-deactiva]

Stonewall wasn’t significant outside America and the “trans woman” everyone on tumblr praises as the stonewall savior was a self proclaimed gay man who said himself he wasn’t there when the riots started

[lesbionia]

[nansheonearth]

I love that the trans people in this video are like, yeah we know the common narrative isn't true but we need this story to build support for ~queer community~. They're so bold they can say this in the nyt and still everyone goes along with it. Homophobic vultures.

[femconstellation]

While women and girls are the primary victims of prostitution, I do want to make it clear that I hate female pimps, too. I hate madames or whatever they call themselves. I hate the women with an OF who glamorize the lifestyle and push it onto impressionable teenage girls. And while I hate the men who pay for sex and the men who sell women and girls to other men most of all, that does not mean I don’t hate the women who are complicit in the oppression of other women.

[liberal-memes]

[femaille]

Liberals are upset about this but refer to women as menstruators and uterus bearers. You helped cause this problem, assholes.

WAAAHAHAHHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I DID NOT BELIEVE THAT GUYS LIKE THAT EXISTED "she kept herself afloat since she was 18 with her Etsy shop, graduated her masters, goes to a language class, writes a book (her third one), has a Youtube channel and goes swimming three times a week AND PAYS OFF THIS STUPID BABY'S DEBT

I hope she kicked him out and took found someone who actually values her lol (no seriously, I admire her)

[unsentimentaltranslator]

”My (33) wife (25)” THEY ALWAYS DO THIS.

“if it wasn’t for my debt she wouldn’t have to work this much” OH MY GOD KICK HIM OUT. When I was 25 I had just returned from my first stint overseas. Go to one (or more!) of the countries you’re learning the language of and be something other than a resource for this Leonardo DiCaprio brained turd to drain dry.

[scintillatingscotoma-deactivate]

Why

Why aren't you talking about it

[pillarsalt]

!!!!!

[vexingwoman]

The difference between a woman in a patriarchal society, and a man in a patriarchal society for whom womanhood is a costume, a cosplay, a collection of sexist frivolous stereotypes that he can opt out of at any moment.

[unsentimentaltranslator]

This was the very first thing that clued me in to the fact that maaaaaybe there was something rotten in the messaging I was getting about feminism vs. trans activism btw.

[medusa-fem]

As a detransitioner, I was around a lot of trans women when I started detransitioning. Trying to relearn how to "be a woman" within a culture where female isn't enough, from a bunch of males in costume, was so toxic. I learned that being a woman was mini skirts, makeup, lingerie, and wishing for a new body. Sexualizing myself would make me a real woman. I would post nudes on reddit like my autogynephillic friends to get approval of my femininity. Just like before transitioning I felt like I was trying so hard just to be a girl, I started doubting everything again. I felt "sexy", but also so displeased with everything about myself, I could never stop trying to be good enough or perform it better. They all looked so happy! I wanted to try to be a woman like them, one excited about my gender, but then I realized; I was learning womanhood from a fetish community, and I would never be happy performing it because I did not have that fetish. Now that I've learned woman is just female, I am actually comfortable, even happy, in the body I'm in. Woman is just female, the only reason it's horrible is what the world we live in puts us through.

if you think women and homosexuals are your oppressors i promise you you’re not oppressed

[rad-dworkin]

People completely misunderstand what she is saying. She isn’t saying white women *can’t* be oppressors, she is saying they aren’t oppressors specifically *because* they’re women.

[meepertonton]

There is nothing more harrowing than making a mistake as a woman and then instantly knowing that the men around you will take it as evidence for the inhumanity of women in general

[quinntheestallion]

Can't believe women are genuinely supposed to believe they have 5-7 years worth of value in adult life. 5 years of adulthood where you're considered valuable. and coincidentaly it's the same years where you're confused, insecure and have low self esteem lol

[m0oooon-presence]

If it makes you feel any better, society never actually considers them to be valuable. They care about what you can do for them, your appearance, ability to give birth, your naivete, but they never actually value or respect you. So don't worry about it, and try to be happy. The people who matter won't constantly try to ''humble'' you or make you feel insecure.

[dapperprincess]

Me when I have no idea what a menstrual cycle is:

[lesbianerin]

women: we get locked into period huts, where we are dying. when we’re menstruating we’re not allowed to pray, touch our family members & have to hide alone at home. we’re seen as unclean. teachers restrict our access to bathrooms. employers fire us if we’re bleeding at work. we can’t afford menstrual products and most of the products contain harmful chemicals. we’re dying from toxic shock syndrome. researched on menstruation and related disorders is grossly neglected and underfunded because women don’t matter. we’re shamed and called disgusting for our natural bodily functions.

delusional agps: actually the stomach cramps and diarrhea we get from taking cross sex hormones is a menstruation! it affirms our womanhood and gives us euphoria (a boner)!

[that-cunning-witch]

"Aphrodite loves terfs" do you really think a goddess of love formed from a literal penis and the mother of Hermaphroditus, an intersex god who was associated with androgyny and feminine men, fucks around with transphobia?

she is a literal trans icon and to deny that will get you smited by all the gods

[worstdykeever]

i wish i was delusional enough to believe that some magical figure has all the same opinions as me and wants to kill all the people i hate but unfortunately i am not currently experiencing religious psychosis

[friendlymathematician]

i wonder why an infamously misogynist society would have a mythology obsessed with penises (and males, and male violence, and specifically obscene amounts of rape and sexual violence). truly a mystery for the ages. i also wonder why trans activists would look at the mythology of an infamously misogynist society and say "that's good representation for our movement". zero self-awareness, or an understanding of ancient greece based entirely on madeleine miller books? or both?
