What has happened to this world..

Between the trans misogynists on the left and the emboldened misogynists on the right.

Guess the meaning of ‘gender’ is pretty clear again at least..

[justiceamberheard]

Piggybacking off another anon - I did not care about this case at all until I saw how viciously people were attacking Amber and found it extremely disturbing. Now that I've done my research I'm 100% team Amber. Did she probably say and do things that aren't healthy for her and others? Sure, so did I when I was being abused. To me this is a horrendous setback for women speaking out about their abuse.

This.

[vettelcore]

something that makes me really sad about the amber heard/d*pp thing is how victims of abuse are feeling after seeing the reaction everyone is having about the whole thing

can you imagine how heartbreaking it has to be for a woman to read that just because she hits her abuser back, or insults him, or does something that's not just take the beatings up without a complaint, that that just makes her the abuser or just as bad as him?

[vettelcore]

and last thing, you can all just turn around and say "ugh more celebrity drama i just don't care about pop culture at all so just stop talking to me about what amber and d*pp are doing 🙄🙄" but you're VERY naive if you think this case won't have very fucked up consequences for normal, regular abuse victims, not just amber

[butterflypeaflowertea]

i am actually disgusted by the absolute hordes of women who bought into this spectacle. who edited tiktok videos of the trial with wii music playing in the background, who made snide remarks about foundation and fake bruises while posting makeup tutorials, who are currently celebrating on twitter as though this is some sort of reason to rejoice. how can so many people be both brainless AND heartless. you sided against and demonized an abuse victim all these weeks & the precedent this case sets now puts YOU as fellow women in danger too. there are no words

[blogdibd]

There were women who went to Ted Bundy’s trial too and who supported Chris Brown. It’s not entirely new but it is never not horrifying.

[skeptikhaleesi]

Abusers can do nice things for people they are not abusing.

Abusers can do nice things for people that they are abusing.

Abusers can otherwise seem like nice, caring, supportive people when they are not actively abusing someone.

It does not mean they’re not fucking abusers.

I feel so alone and suffocated. I wish I could just escape.

[darwinsfinches-deactivated20210]

yeah so Black women suffer extraordinarily high rates of maternal mortality, women in pain are frequently ignored and dismissed and gaslit, medical schools teach the body based on an understanding of the average white man, a startling percentage of medical professionals don’t know the difference between heart attack symptoms in AMAB and AFAB people, intersex children are routinely subjected to unnecessary and dangerous cosmetic treatments, there’s almost no research into a wide range of health issues women suffer and there is rampant sexual harassment of women, especially lgbt+ women who work in medical fields…

and this person wants to tell me that planned parenthood saying “people with cervices” is the degrading misogyny we should be focused on. 

[kukoyi-deactivated20210512]

Black woman here.

Yes. Yes it is.

Not all women consent to being debased as uterus owners, vulva havers and breeders.

Immigrant women, women who are refugees and women who do not speak English as their first language exists.

Black women who have a history in slavery as literally being referred to as cattle do not want to be referred to as fucking uterus owners, bleeders and menstruators.

So cut the bullshit about bringing black women’s struggles as a fucking “gotcha”.

None of you care about how high are maternal mortality rates are if you are debasing us to “uterus owners”.

[long-legged-socialist]

How many times do we have to tell you that language matters? I had someone tell me the other day that they had no idea they had a cervix until they read fucking fan fiction. Our bodies are already not discussed ON TOP OF being a black woman our pain is ignored. Why dehumanize us further with our already fucked up history of being tortured, raped and exploited BECAUSE WE WERE BORN FEMALE and call us “cervix havers?” Are you fucking high? There’s already a lack of research into black womens health specifically and you want us to change the entire fucking language of gynecology for .1% of the population??? You must be high.

[greenwire]

There was a woman on here who posted about how “people with uteruses” were being disproportionately harmed by tear gas, and she honest to god blocked me because I put this in her replies:

OP is correct that “people with uteruses” have been purposely excluded from scientific study: everything from studying science and medicine to being excluded from medical trials. OP is correct that people with uteruses are less likely to receive adequate health care, and that people with uteruses are more likely to go undiagnosed for years.

It’s almost like people with uteruses share some kind of oppression, irrespective of identity. But if that were true, then a large scale, well funded, and popular movement to deny people with uteruses the language and legal recognition as a cohesive class would be detrimental. Ah well. Perhaps someone smarter than I can connect these dots.

The fact that you have to dance around with language and say “AFAB” and “AMAB” to talk about medical sexism is itself part of the problem. The fact that women’s biology is considered gross, bigoted, harmful, and disgusting - no matter what your political bent - is part of the problem. OP, YOU are part of the problem. You care more about offending biological males who don’t want to hear about cervical cancer than the actual loss of women’s lives. The fact that you personally put men’s comfort over women’s lives is itself part of the problem.

You can protect people on the basis of sex or you can protect on the basis of self-identified gender. Not both. That’s why feminism, real feminism, is now considered bigoted. That’s why you’re more willing to believe that lifelong progressives, gay and lesbian activists, feminists, have suddenly and without warning become horrible bigots, rather than even entertain the notion that perhaps heterosexual males might not really care that much about dismantling sexism and homophobia.

Since it was not included in the article, I thought I would provide a rough translation of her historical defense on court;

“When men wear suits and look down they get their sentences lowered; I dont have a suit, my mom barely managed to find this shirt for me. I won’t lie, there is also the joy of being able to survive that i can’t conceal. I’ve walked the corridors of these courthouses countless times, my face covered in bruises, for a restraining order. I didn’t have any other choice. If he hadn’t died, I was going to. He wasn’t going to tell you he had decided to pimp me out, he wasn’t going to talk about his plans of putting me in the arms of other men, he wasn’t going to tell you about the beatings I endured just because the eggplants were slightly overcooked, because the curtains were dirty, because there were leftover crumbs on the table. He wasn’t going to mention how many times I was hospitalized. There is a picture of me taken in the teahouse. I’ve smiled a bit lopsidedly. Maybe he was going to show you that picture and tell you I looked like a dishonorable woman. He was going to tell you he ‘cleansed my honor’ as if he wasn’t planning to pimp me out. You were going to sentence him to 3-5 years and pardon him because i had dishonored him and see my lopsided smile as provocation and feel sad for him. However, honor is mine Mr. Judge, I won’t leave it to anyone else just because I signed a paper.”

[girlbortion]

terfs idealize a form of femininity that is a white supremacist’s wet dream. they make fun of “TIMs” as men masquerading as women as evidenced by their broad shoulders, wigs, narrow hips, facial and body hair, musculature and even bone structure (phrenology, anyone?) as if those aren’t the very same characteristics i see on my indigenous and black cis aunties, mothers, and sisters. if you are not white, lithe, and barely hairy you will never fit into their idea of womanhood! the same rhetoric that excludes and polices trans women is a threat to all women of color, cis or trans. 

[girlbortion]

terf ideology is incapable of examining the multitude of relationships we have to girlhood, womanhood, and motherhood because it is an ideology fueled and sharpened by white supremacy. it is an ideology with a terminal and suicidal end if you are not white.

[zenosgaegalvus]

it’s truly remarkable how everything said here is entirely incorrect. terfs are not the ones saying women can’t be hairy or have broad shoulders or any of those things. they simply acknowledge that males are not and cannot be women. ❤️

yall see a woman with hairy legs and say she looks like a man, please save it lol

Sexual Dimorphism: exists

OP: That’s racist! 😡

[terffanypollard]

What’s the point of replying to me if you’re gonna be a coward and instantly block me, dude? You probably have a panic attack everytime an unknown number calls you.

I didn’t think this post was worth a serious response because it’s such a laughably false, fabricated argument, but here we are.

OP is asserting that recognizing sexual dimorphism is racist because they think WoC are manly apparently. But comparing WoC to literal males will never be the woke, progressive take you think you’re making. Gender critical women point out sexual dimorphism between men and women because trans activists like to pretend that there is no meaningful difference between women and transwomen or that it’s not easy to clock most trans people. If you knew anything about us beyond the progaganda you happily consume, you would know that we make it abundantly clear that we believe that the only thing that makes a woman a woman is being a female. WoC are women because they are female. Women with PCOS are women because they are female. Tall women with broad shoulders or deep voices are women because they are female. Intersex women are women because they are female. GNC women like myself are women because we are female. It’s so sad and twisted that I have to spell this out for you.

The only people here being racist are OP and the people like yourself who agree with them because you’re the only ones here making the comparison between black women and men. You can only point your fingers at yourselves for making that connection. If you see WoC and they remind you of males, that’s on you.

Asserting that if WoC can be women, then males can be women too, will never not be what’s actually racist here.

OP made this post in a dishonest and poor attempt to link understanding that the sexes are different to racism because OP knows they can scare weak-minded people who think it’s worse to be called racist than to be racist into following their rhetoric. It’s a clever tactic, but easy to see through if you’re smarter than you are fearful.

Many of us gender critical women are WoC, but you choose to pretend they don’t exist, just like you ignore everything else that doesn’t support your delusional agenda. You believe only what you want to believe. What else is new?

“They/them..”

So sick to death of my miserable fucking generation. And deeply ashamed. Entitled, cowardly, shit for brains, spoilt women with no sense of how their bullshit is going to affect the next lots of girls coming up and what kind of a world they have to grow up because of their toxicity.

You hate being a girl and female because of male supremacy. It’s called internalised misogyny. But instead of fighting that, you take it ‘cause men must be right and we are inferior, after all. This is after decades of a women’s movement and a rich history of resistance which you’re too lazy to learn about, because you can get all your “woke” information from Twitter and won’t have to spend time reading anything for more than 30 seconds at a time.

They just remind of little rich kids at this point - imagine thinking forcing people to call you “they” ‘cause deep down you think “you’re not like other girls” as in “not vapid/inferior/deserving of being oppressed” is important, in a world where 1 in 6 girls will be a victim of childhood sexual assault. They are just privileged, male-worshipping women who their cake and to eat it too, by calling their stupidity, laziness and cowardice “feminist.”

[cherry-dykes]

can i ask, at what point do you stop being a victim and begin to be a perpetrator? at what point does a women who posts actively about sex work and how wonderful and great all of it is stop being a victim of what society has taught her and starts to become someone actively putting young girls in danger. because in my mind she was a victim when she was taught that letting men have access to your body with money is empowering and feminist. and sure now that she is saying these things herself she is using what she was taught but now she is the one that is filling these young girls with unrealistic ideals and promises that will hurt them.

[blogdibd]

This is my question too. I’m starting to almost realise that these adult women are perpetrators in relation to girls and teenagers.
