Being from Greece makes a lot of the arguments people give on why Israel should be destroyed sound even more ridiculous and weird. (especially when these people are also fellow greeks) ''Israel is an ethno state!!!''- You mean a nation state, and yes, so is Greece
''The founding of Israel was based on displacement of Palestinians''- Look, I don't want to minimize that at all because people losing their homes is fucking terrible but that doesn't mean the solution is expelling Israelis now. There was a population exchange between Greece and Tuurkey in 1922. Both sides ethnically cleansed people. It was a terrible thing to do. But both Turkey and Greece exist now as two seperate states with clearly defined borders (if you ignore some shit erdogan tries to pull in the agean). And you don't question Greece's or Turkey's right to not be wiped off.
''Israeli identity is fake because it was based on smth that happened 3000 years ago!!!''- Ok sorry to break it to you but us Greeks have made our entire national identity revolve around who we were 3000 years ago. And if you want to argue abt fakeness of identity I would argue ours was a less organic one. Jewish people maintained the same religion and basic belief systems for 3000 years. They continuously felt the connection with Eretz Yisrael. We switched to Orthodox christianity from whatever 12 god shit we had, we lost most of our literacy that allowed us to keep tpuch with ancient texts, we embraced so many customs from the Ottomans and YET it was still valid when we tried to reclaim our ancient greek identity to build a nation partly on the basis of that
''European colonial powers helped prop up Israel which means it is an imperialistic state!''- Do you think Greece got independence or gained more land purely through OUR military strength lol?
BTW one of the reasons i support a 2 state solution so much is bcs I think us and Turkey did a relatively fine job at accepting that although both turkish and greek populations have historically resided in both greek areas and asia minor (which today is turkey) there needs to be a compromise so that we both live in peace.
sex is neither a skill nor a service, it‘s an intimate and personal act between two consenting people that necessitates mutual desire. everything else is coercion or rape
this. this is a very eloquent way to say it like it is. you are supposed to like, want and enjoy sex with the person you have it with, even if you have zero prior experience. you are supposed to like, want and enjoy the sexual acts even if right now you are pleasuring your partner and do not expect them to return the favor just yet. you are supposed to actively want to be there with that very person, right at that time.
you are choosing to have sex, it does not happen to you.
“if you think transwomen are a threat in female bathrooms you should just advocate for floor—to-ceiling individual cubicles” okay but we were fucking fine before bc women have super basic decency and respect for one another. but now, because you’re here, we can’t have a mutual trusting and safe space. now we all have to be high-security guarded against one another. now we gotta feel as though anyone around us could be a predator and we are entirely against the rest of the world.
taking female spaces away doesn’t just deprive women of safety, but also solidarity, dignity and trust. female spaces need to exist because men are consistently historically and statistically proven to be a threat, but also because women have been deprived the ability to exist and especially congregate without male supervision by all highly misogynistic societies, as women are safer and less vulnerable when they are together or know there are women who they can trust.
this obviously isn’t just about bathrooms. as it stands, in my country, women cannot form their own groups without a male being allowed in at any time. we are not allowed to formally congregate without male supervision.
“bathrooms are just where you pee and then come out!!” then use the male bathrooms if it matters that little. “but we might get assaulted” oh that’s crazy. imagine someone getting assaulted in a bathroom. i thought that never happens?? anyways, women and our spaces don’t exist to cushion male problems. you cannot remove the things we fought for the rights for because other males cause you problems.
I saw a video today about why making an OnlyFans was a bad idea for women, and it had something insigtful in it I never actually thought about. It was re-told from someone's personal experience and it wasn't what I'd expect to happen.
The woman in the video explains that a lot of women's expectations was to only be doing it for a short while, until they get out of a bad situation, and then quit, being more financially stable and on their feet. She explains that even if you have only 12 subscribers, that is 12 m*n who are used to having continuous intimate access to you, and if you one day decide to stop, they are immediately going to get offended and upset. Because they've been paying for this, they'll feel entitled to keep having continuous access, and they'll find a way to make it happen.
She then goes on to say that if you want to make money at all, you'll have to show your face in the videos, and they'll be able to use AI tools to find your identity almost immediately. What happens next is they find your friends, family members, and your job site, and blackmail you; you either return to onlyfans, or they send the content to everyone you know. And if you say no, they will harass all your friends and family, and if you get any kind of job, this will get harassed too. Women then face the immense pressure of having not just themselves, but everyone in their life harassed to the point where they can't stand it anymore, and return to OnlyFans just to make it stop. They'll become isolated and have everyone in their life turned against them.
This effectively stops them for having any other kind of job or profession because it's impossible to stop the subscribers from finding out and sabotaging the entire thing. She explained a woman was put through this and forced to continue onlyfans, when she only had 12 subscribers. Two of them were blackmailing her. So thinking you can try it out and get out, you can't really, it's not just that the content might get out, but you're entire family and friend group and coworkers and job site might get involved.
The other meaningful fact she brings on is that you are unlikely to reach any success if you look like an adult women; it only works if you can pass as a child. I can't link the video because in the other half she berates women, and I don't want that content on my blog, but I found this story important, because it wouldn't cross my mind how big the danger is. I didn't know that if you get even one crazy subscriber, it's impossible to quit.
The other thing I saw women who previously had an OnlyFans account say, is how awful it was for their mental health, and the perception of their own bodies. They noted that even if it felt okay at the start, it keeps feeling worse and worse and they were deteriorating the entire time it was going on. It's impossible to not be affected. And the general, putting yourself in the harm's way, getting stalked, having to move often, having m*n break into your place, and delude themselves into thinking you want them and are specifically interested in them so any invasion in your life is welcome and warranted, is something women might not be aware they're exposing themselves to.
The woman in the video did note that most women don't even decide to do it themselves, but get groomed and pressured by promises of money and then someone else profits off of them. I think women should know exactly what it is and what is likely to happen to them, on top of the violation of intimacy they know they'll have to endure if they join.
Yikes. Please don’t.
My biggest takeaway from Invisible Women is you cannot read it and maintain the delusion that women are oppressed on the basis of gender rather than sex.
Medication, crash test dummies, office temperature - these things affect you on the basis of your sex, and claiming a different gender doesn't change any of it, nor does it challenge the systems and structures that are built to put women at a disadvantage. If every woman on earth woke up tomorrow and realized they were non-binary or trans men, they would still be at a significant disadvantage compared to men.
We have to fight female oppression on the basis of sex, or all we'll do is change the label for which half of the population is default and which is afterthought without any actual change.
unauthorized fucking thing!!!!!!

Germany: We've legalized prostitution! We take a cut of the money made from commercialized rape through taxes! We keep the lights on with rape money! That's not dystopian at all! Women are so free here! Yayyy
Meanwhile, there are thousands of women from my country and surrounding ones trafficked into this industry and specifically to Germany. Which I know not a soul amongst western libfems gives a tweedle about because they fetishize Eastern European women too (all those cringey trends were they dress up as caricatures of us, the "Slavic Stare", etc.) and think our natural state is to be hypersexualized and exploited.
