these tiktok girlies are so detached from the reality of being Othered that they aren't even aware of the fact that the undesirability of certain features is HEAVILY tied to WHO has said features, no one gives a fuck about a blond haired blue eyed european girl having a slight nose bump and no one gives a fuck about a similar girl having hairy arms, people look down on big features and body hair BECAUSE they are features of poc and non-europeans but anyway
stop reducing radical feminism to gender criticism
and stop reducing gender criticism to transgender criticism
and, for the conservative crowd, stop mistaking gender criticism for hating on gnc people
White radfems need to really chill tf out when it comes to global majority women being critical of anything trans. Instead of being genuinely interested in solidarity and support with other women, a lot of white radfems will just use Black and brown women as a token to prove that their ideology is right.
"Radical feminism can't be white feminism because my Black friend agreed with me" like sis, Black women also disagree with you. Argue the ideology based on actual merits and ideas, not this weird racial fetishizing nonsense.
also anytime a tragedy happens to global majority women I better not see you saying stupid shit like “haha bet this wouldn’t have happened to them if they were nonbinary amirite 🤪🤪” like time and a place please, these are real women not political pawns or twitter clout
This could save lives so I thought I’d share!
self care is peeling off the skins of apples before eating them because they’re loaded with toxins and you don’t like it with the skin!!!!!!!!! you’re not ALLOWED to eat it with the skin!!!!! YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HELPPP WHY WOULD THE INTERVIEWER ASK THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE 💀💀💀
reminds me of this bit from a breaking bad interview with jonathan banks lol
can 2016 just end already i’m tired 😭
TRAs hate detrans people so much and take their rage out on them via fetishization, i want to puke
Yep I have recently seen it with my own two eyes, there is a growing number of trans men with nsfw blogs that are filled with self hatred posts, mostly seen in the form of “misgendering and detrans kinks”. Seen also on their blogs : “pet play” kink, rape (that they call “Consensual Non Consensual kink”), etc, everything degrading that is pushed on women is OH SO SURPRISING also something that trans men internalise ! I wonder why … the mystery stays intact ! 🧐
It’s truly heartbreaking because the symbolic violence of it all is heavy, these posts are not for the faint of hearts and I messaged one blogger to tell her none of this shit was even dreamed of by us supposedly transphobes. They are targeting their own people and as you can guess it’s never something trans identified males do, or at least I haven’t seen it when I found receipts after receipts of trans identified females blogs like that in just a few hours. Detransition must be something you do because you’ve finally understood yourself, not something forced on you (even just in fantasy) because of sexist “you must be bred and go back to your womanly place” messages or because of similar in essence religious crap.
ive seen some trans women who have the detransition kink but admittedly it’s far more common with trans men. the trans women w detransition kinks ive seen seem to fixate on homophobia instead of misogyny. either way it’s very very disturbing, and concerning.
Diving women won't make trans men come back, or trans women less valid. Lesbians of old would be SO disappointed in you. Honestly a good amount of modern lesbians would be disappointed as well.
I dont know what Women's Diving had to do with making "trans men come back" I think you and I are watching very different sports
Don't keep this in the replies, queen
Now what were you saying, anon?
“we must deal with them before a trickle becomes an avalanche” oh honey they knew.
I just found out these are all the same fucking person how is she so powerful
And with YOUR help, we can make him feel even worse!
Guys this is NOT about Mario and Garfield, it's not even about his homophobic church, it's about this cringey ass Instagram post he made about his partner:
Reminder that his son from his previous marriage with Anna Faris was born prematurely and has a number of health problems as a result, so the "gave me a gorgeous healthy daughter" bit is just disgustingly ableist. Not to mention the incredibly possessive and sexist tone of the whole thing.
His insta post is not a declaration of love, it's about what he gets from her, how useful she is, what she gives him: a better life, a better child, help. He brags about the fact that she helps him with everything and he doesn't do shit for her in return, but she still stays by him because her heart is "pure", the christian vision of the self sacrificing wife who belongs to her mediocre husband, he's quick to compare her to a collectable. He literally starts by saying "Look everyone! Look how much I'm loved!" Pure narcissism. He didn't mention one quality in her, other than her willingness to serve him. I learned nothing about her from this post. She doesn't exist outside of him.
If he doesn't give her anything on her birthday she can look back at this post and see that all the signs have always been here and leave his entitled misogynistic ass

the parents are homophobic and the kids too prolly 😬
the “lolita” covers
here’s a question: if vladimir nabokov’s “lolita” is truly the psychological portrait of a messed up dude and not the girl – let alone a sexualized little girl, as all of the sexualization happens inside humbert humbert’s head – then why do all the covers focus on a girl, and usually a sexy aspect of a girl, usually quite young, and none of them feature a portrait of humbert humbert?
here are nabokov’s original instructions for the book cover:
I want pure colors, melting clouds, accurately drawn details, a sunburst above a receding road with the light reflected in furrows and ruts, after rain. And no girls. … Who would be capable of creating a romantic, delicately drawn, non-Freudian and non-juvenile, picture for LOLITA (a dissolving remoteness, a soft American landscape, a nostalgic highway—that sort of thing)? There is one subject which I am emphatically opposed to: any kind of representation of a little girl.
and yet, the representations of the sexy little girl abound.
i became driven by curiousity. why did this happen? why is this happening?
i am not alone – there’s a book about this, with several essays and artists’ conceptions about the politics and problems of representation surrounding the covers of “lolita.” this new yorker article gives a summary of the book and its ideas, and interviews one of the editors:
Many of the covers guilty of misrepresenting Lolita as a teen seductress feature images from Hollywood movie adaptations of the book— Kubrick’s 1962 version, starring Sue Lyon, and Adrian Lyne’s 1997 one. Are those films primarily to blame for the sexualization of Lolita? As is argued in several of the book’s essays, the promotional image of Sue Lyon in the heart-shaped sunglasses, taken by photographer Bert Stern, is easily the most significant culprit in this regard, much more so than the Kubrick film itself (significantly, neither the sunglasses nor the lollipop ever appears in the film), or the later film by Adrian Lyne. Once this image became associated with “Lolita”—and it’s important to remember that, in the film, Lolita is sixteen years old, not twelve—it really didn’t matter that it was a terribly inaccurate portrait. It became the image of Lolita, and it was ubiquitous. There are other factors that have contributed to the incorrect reading, from the book’s initial publication in Olympia Press’s Traveller’s Series (essentially, a collection of dirty books), to Kubrick’s startlingly unfaithful adaptation. At the heart of all of this seems to be the desire to make the sexual aspect of the novel more palatable.
here’s a couple of kubrick inspired covers:
which very well could have, after tremendous sales, have influenced the following covers:
…straying so far from the intention of nabokov that the phenomenon begins to look more like the symptom of something larger, something sicker.
after a lot of researching covers, it was here, in this sampling of concept covers for the book about the lolita covers, that i found an image that best represents the story to me:
[art by linn olofsdotter – and again, this is not an official cover]
but why aren’t all the covers like that? even the ones published by “legitimate” publishing companies, with full academic credentials, with no intended connection to the film; surely they must have read nabokov’s instructions for the cover. and yet, look at the top row of lolita covers: all legitimate publishing companies, not prone to smut. and yet.
my conclusion is that the lolita complex existed before “lolita” (and of course it did) – a patriarchal society is essentially operating with the same delusions of humbert humbert. nabokov did not produce the sexy girl covers of lolita, and kubrick had only the smallest hand in it. it was what people desired, requested and bought. the image of the sexy girl sells; intrigues; gets the hands on the books.
as elizabeth janeway said in her review in the new york review of books: “Humbert is every man who is driven by desire, wanting his Lolita so badly that it never occurs to him to consider her as a human being, or as anything but a dream-figment made flesh.”
isn’t that our media as a whole? our culture as a whole?
the whole lot of them/us – seeing the world through humbert-tinted glasses, seeing all others as Other and Object, as solipsistic dream-reality. as i scroll through the “lolita” covers i wonder: where’s the humanity in our humanity?
Hey guys, I know it’s a long shot, but I wanna do what I can to get her name out there. I don’t know the girl or her family, but I live in Jersey and know exactly where this happened, and I just can’t let this become another case of a missing Black girl getting swept under the rug.
JaShyah Moore is 14 years old from East Orange, NJ and she went missing on October 14th around 10AM. If you’ve seen her, have a tip, or know where she is, PLEASE call the EOPD at: 973.266.5041, 973.266.5030, 973.266.5060
To quote the article I linked, this is what happened before her disappearance:
In an interview with local TV station WPIX, JaShyah's mother, Jamie Moore, said her daughter initially came home from the deli and told her that she lost the EBT card she used to pay for food.
"She came back and she said, 'Mommy, I lost the card,' " Jamie Moore said. She said she told to teen to "backtrack [her] steps" to find the card.
Jamie Moore told WPIX that when JaShyah didn't return home within an hour, she went out to search for her. She said she went to several delis in the area, but could not find her daughter.
She eventually flagged a nearby police officer to report JaShyah missing.
"She's such a smart girl. She would not stay out overnight," Jamie Moore said. "I know my daughter. She would not want me to worry."
New Jersey authorities say they have secured surveillance footage from Poppies Deli and U.S. Food Market, another store JaShyah visited before she disappeared.
If you’re in the area or know someone who is, please share this to bring JaShyah home. The award for information is $15,000.
Please note that she no longer has a nose ring!!!
