I love radical feminism because it’s the only movement in this world that cannot be infiltrated and dictated by men, every other movement gets taken over by men and has them dominate and dictate it and eventually runs for their benefit, and we’re the only ones they can’t infiltrate because we don’t let any of them in and I think that’s the best out of all things, a movement which men can’t twist to their benefit or use to promote their own goals, a movement where men can’t brainwash women into thinking men’s presence is needed, a movement where we can all talk free of male perspective, free of having to watch out not to lower men’s social status, free of having to consider if them being called out will make them angry and aggressive, free of worry they will take the lead and take credit for everything we’re done, free of being lead into fake perspective of our own oppression, free of getting shut down when we voice our issues and problems, free to call out and criticize everything, free to say the truth, I think if I could achieve to be surrounded by radical feminists all the time the quality of my life would skyrocket.

[cqlqrcqdedwitch]

no other part of my identity and i able to be lectured by my oppressors about ‘what i could do better’. not in my blackness, nor my poorness. but my womanhood? oh just let any ole bitter man in to talk down to us, let them lie and misconstrue reality so much that even saying men are womens oppressors isn’t allowed or is seen as “evil”. lol making women out to be the “real bad guys” is so last year. no matter how many times women say they care about men or talk about mens issues it’s not enough until they, men or women that hate feminism, FEEL untriggerable about our feminism. until it’s so watered down and inoffensive it means nothing anymore.

I needed this drag. Let’s change guys and not look back

[user87262893]

working out your brain is a must!!

• hydrate it by drinking lots of water

• eat dark chocolate and blueberries and walnuts and salmon and other foods high in antioxidants!!

• play little brain games on your phone; I like wordconenct! anything that makes you think!

• read books. It’s simple but necessary. Even better - join a book club, or read with a friend, so you can have discussions after. This will improve your reading comprehension.

• do puzzles - it doesnt have to be sudoku, I love playing Beat Saber on the Oculus Rift because it makes my brain have to match colorful patterns to physical movements very quickly!

• learn a new dance - even a tik tok trendy dance. Learning new dance moves are proven to strengthen synapses!!

• go bird watching, or foraging, or anything outdoors that requires you to explore pattern recognition and visual searching

• watch a movie with the intent of analysis - this is best done with a cinephile friend!! talk about tropes and symbolism and character growth

• cross stitch, or sew, or do anything that requires matching nimble hand movements to patterns

• play or learn an instrument!

• develop a consistent sleep schedule (or as close to consistent as you can get!)

• when eating, try to identify the ingredients and flavors you’re perceiving!

I hope this helps :)

[moonlightwaterhealing]

I like how this went from me feeling like “hm why is this attacking me 🤨” at first, but feeling grateful seeing an added guide on a genuine expansion on a “ how to” work out the brain. This genuinely helps a bunch. People find solace in doing activities that get them through life by doing said activities of phone/tv or if that’s all they’ve ever known in their life to get them through things + etc tho. However, this was very impt to point out. Slowly beginning incorporating things to work the brain in ones own time.

[hateandmaliceandcats-deactivate]

I’m doing better with this but I still need to eat antioxidant rich foods and drink more water

[sapphicgem]

STOP WEARING BRAS & BINDERS!! also a useful tip for women who need it <3

[gendercritquinn]

I used to sleep in bras as a kid I am so lucky this never happened to me. Didn’t even know it could. 😮

[spockgirl]

people at all points of the political spectrum love trying to invent a pathology to diagnose alt right men like their behavior isn’t perfectly well explained by the most simple feminist analysis. no one wants to acknowledge that the liberation of women will require men to give things up and will make their lives worse in some ways, or at least no one has the moral courage to argue that it’s worth it

[spockgirl]

like men are out here saying constantly that they become fascists and murderers and terrorists when it becomes marginally harder for them to get laid and yet so many whole careers in gender theory and political analysis are based on denying this is true. as though it isn’t just the logical endpoint of patriarchy lol

[gcdk]

If men just saw women as human, as equally human to men, and if men recognised and worked on their sense of entitlement, just those two things alone would change the world immeasurably for women and girls.

Instead leftist men swot up on the right words to say and maintain their sense of entitlement and their studied confusion about pesky women who consistently fail to react in the way those men expect NPCs to.

Openly misogynist fascist men or religious men are at least honest when they say they don’t believe women are equally human to men.

Both groups of men get enraged by: women failing to react in the way men want them to (not giving men sex, not submitting to men’s will, wanting equal relationships, arguing with men, not being feminine enough, not having children, having children etc etc) and not giving men enough attention (ignoring men, not doing emotional labour and free therapy for men, not centring men in everything, talking to other women, having hobbies, having children, not having children).

This rage is caused by a failure to perceive a woman as equal to him. “You’re here for me”, as Terry Crews pointed out. So for many men, enraged that the “support staff” aren’t doing their jobs, the only answer is to lose their shit. Because women aren’t actually support staff, and you can’t fire us, and nobody cares if MGTOW, and you can’t force a human to do exactly what you want even if you actually enslave them. Men kick disobedient dogs, or hate cats, for much the same reason. No empathy, no understanding, just anger at not getting what he wants from someone or something he believes is put on earth to serve him. This is why they love sex dolls and robots. (And then cry because they can’t form any meaningful connections and nobody cares about them as individuals).

It would need a worldwide cult deprogramming type endeavour to make any difference. Men truly see women as only here for their needs, and unless that changes we end up with different versions of the same old misogyny forever.

[shadowlhunters-deactivated20200]

You know how 1st world feminists get told that they don’t need feminism? They’re told that they should be glad they’re not “really oppressed” like the women in 3rd world countries. That things could always be worse.

You know what my mother tells me? She says I don’t need feminism because I should be glad I’m born in an urban city of Pakistan. She says, at least I wasn’t born in a rural area where girls are married off to men twice their age. That things could always be worse.

And our house maid, Shabana, who was married to her uncle at 15 and, at 18, has 2 children, she doesn’t even know what feminism is. She was told by her father that she should be glad her husband doesn’t beat her and hasn’t thrown tehzaab (acid) at her. That things could always be worse.

Am I the only one seeing a very disturbing pattern here?

[dyketat0r]

the way some girls actually agree with radfem basics but start crying the moment they see a radfem just proves that you’ve been brainwashed into thinking radical feminism is inherently bad, evil and transphobic and are scared to admit you might be radical

[faesleigh]

Libfems will see their feminism be so co opted and watered down and turned into a sloshing bowl of shit and then STILL get so mad at anyone who thinks critically about things they're sensitive about.

Like do you NOT see what your sensitivity to critique has CAUSED you absolute MORON. Your fear in being labeled as an -ist or -phobic has ruined everything for every oppressed people but especially women. We do not have time to hold your hands on how its not bad to think about the choices people make. And that that doesn't make you a bad person or a nazi.

Either you get it or you dont

can't believe people are using the if she loved him enough then he wouldn't hit her arguement

[basedandradpilled]

providing empathy and nurturing an abuser, especially one with narcissistic tendencies, is enabling them or making yourself their next victim; sometimes unfortunately both. these men do not want to be fixed and will continue harming women regardless

[radical-fire-vixen]

remember when Lundy Bancroft wrote an entire book on why trying to help abusive men was a bad idea because it gave them more tools to be abusive and gaslight their victims?

[cqlqrcqdedwitch]

Smart people talk about that book everyday. It’s life changing seeing women and men who have 10-30 years in the rehabilitation business all come to the same conclusion. But online warriors think they’re the first to come up with centering men and telling women they’re evil for not wanting to help abusers

[anti-porn-unicorn]

This is what men do when they know they’re losing power. They resort to sexual domination, even if it involves a child. Disgusting.

[theunwomen]

[goodbye-guys]

people did this when they started to get angry at Dilma Rousseff, former president of Brazil, when they wanted to impeach her (for no reason, by the way. she didnt commit any crime)

the context of the the situation was that the gas prices were high, and it was "fucking" them, so they "fucked" her back

(they end up impeaching her, and the gas prices only get higher and higher. Ironically)

[ms-revived-frogs]

Now will liberal feminists understand? Under patriarchy, "sex work" can never be empowering. THIS is how men view sex and THIS is how men view women sexually.

[ihatemenandtherearereasons]

Exhibit 1547

[pillarsalt]

[lavendermenacing]

Like y’all it’s not an accident that the aspects of womanhood which are constantly emphasized today as vital to the “identity” are the ones that men can access if they choose to.

Men can buy makeup, can wear clothes marketed to women, can participate in beauty rituals typically required of women, can have tendencies towards “feminine” things. Some men can do these things and be read as women in some situations. These experiences are held up as innate to womanhood, as some sort of “feminine identity” despite the fact that they don’t even apply to many women.  These things are not innate or inevitable, are actively harmful to women, and many of us choose to discard them if we are in a position to do so. But we have men musing genuinely that because they liked dresses and dolls as a kid, or have some notion of “feeling like a woman” (based only on the limited experiences of ours they can access, again) they were a woman all along.

You know what’s not held up as important to womanhood? Having a female body, facing issues related to female reproductive health, and undergoing female socialization as a child. These things are facing lashback for being suggested to be experiences of women at all. Why? Because men cannot access them. They do not happen to men. And because they don’t happen to men, they aren’t valued, they in fact need to be silenced for interrupting the views some men have of themselves as being women.

The parts of womanhood that men can access, the physical trappings of it that they themselves forced on us, are the important parts. The parts they can’t access must necessarily be denigrated as unimportant, no matter the impact these aspects have on the lives and wellbeing of women. It is the only way their misogynistic ideology can work.

[kittiesatemypronouns]

Wow, this is brilliant.

[alwek]

Let's all remember that TERFS AREN'T FEMINISTS!!! Feminism is about women and men being equal and not about women taking over the current men spot.

If you say "kill all men" and aren't saying it 100% ironically, you are a piece of shit. Same goes for saying "all women are sluts". Y'all aren't good people, and need to suck some fucking eggs

[cqlqrcqdedwitch]

You’re a feminine man who hates mean feminism because you think we generalize too much when the statistics and the cultural norms.. only support the facts? When your behavior and beliefs only strengthen the our arguments. And the only thing you have is that it’s not literally every single man on Earth ever. Which anyone past a fourth grade reading level could recognize generalizations never account for all of a group, that’s statistically impossible and doesn’t even need to be true for a trend and assessment to be seen about 60% of a group engaging in x behavior. and the other 30% enabling x behavior while the other 10% doesn’t care or think x is happening at all. I’m only hoping you can one day care about sexism as much as you fear spouting shit about racism. Bc black women arent taking your half assed care about only one of their identities seriously anymore. You’re ok with people saying white people suck and all they do is ruin shit but you start to piss yourself when [the more statistically accurate] phrase of men fucking suck and all they do is sexualize and demean women comes around. Get help op. It’s common but shouldn’t be normal to be this anti feminist while on the left, while enjoying being feminine, and thinking you aren’t being ist by talking over women and thinking you, a man, discovered how feminism is supposed to function.

[alwek]

[opabiniawillreturn-deactivated2]

feminism is about liberating women from the patriarchy. it's about abolishing the patriarchy entirely.

[alwek]

Well you're half right. It IS about abolishing the patriarchy, but that first bit is bait talk. Women aren't the only folk that need liberation from it. Men also need to be freed of its grasp, as its existence breeds the likes of incels AND terfs.

Feminism is about making men and women equal by abolishing the patriarchy, because EVERYONE suffers from it.

"We are equal" is feminism. "All men suck", hell even "most men suck" is not feminism. "Your body your choice" is feminism. "You're a sexual deviant for wanting to be you" is not feminism

[opabiniawillreturn-deactivated2]

the patriarchy oppresses women, not men. why should I care about the recoil from a murderers gun hurting them?

is it bad for POC to say all white people suck? is it bad for gay people to say all straight people suck?

[alwek]

The patriarchy also forces men to suppress their emotions and never talk about anything personal which obviously causes tones of emotional stunting. Which in turn leads to incel types of thinking, to alpha bro types of thinking, which perpetuates the terf rhetoric that all men are evil when in fact everyone is just suffering differently from the same thing.

Yes. It is. Those are racist and heterophobic respectively. Hate begets hate, and incessantly telling someone that them merely trying to live as they were born makes them evil doesn't exactly make them want to be kind back to you.

[opabiniawillreturn-deactivated2]

ohh it's alwek. I forgot you think reverse racism and heterophobia are real

[jewfem]

The patriarchy also forces men to suppress their emotions and never talk about anything personal which obviously causes tones of emotional stunting.

Ok? It's not feminist's job to hold men's hands and say they can cry. Society has men take their emotions out by breaking shit and yelling and punching walls and treats men crying as something serious while women crying are treated as over emotional and typical (bc women are easily emotional, right?) And on their period.

It is not a woman's job to fix men.

[alwek]

Almost like i just fucking said the patriarchy has emotionally stunted men into those actions. Almost like feminism was created to stop that and make men and women equal. Almost like that's what the fucking original post says.

It's a team effort to change the world you fucking moron.

[jewfem]

Men don't want to change the world though. I mean, why would they? They're on top.

They don't give a shit bout women so why should feminists care about their oppressors?

[alwek]

That's just like, completely untrue? Nick Green? Noah Samson? Drew Gooden? Jack Black? Snoop Dogg? My two friends? My uncle? My 10th grade french teacher? John Oliver? The Trevor Noah and the previous host i forget the name of? Guy Fieri? Johnathan Van Ness? Toby Fox? Like come on bro

[sapphicgem]

1. nick green, noah samson, drew gooden and jack black are all normal fucking people who have done nothing substantial for feminism. they’re not evil afaik, but saying “i’m a feminist” means absolutely nothing. none of these men have showed any interest in changing the world for women’s rights.

2. snoop dogg is a MASSIVE sexist and an awful person. he literally SOLD women to other celebrities and walked women around on leashes.

3. john oliver is your typical run-of-the-mill liberal. he says some generic things about feminism on his show. but again — he’s a normal guy. “women should be equal to men” is something everyone should believe, and it doesn’t make him a prolific feminist.

4. i actually really like trevor noah. i think he does some good things. his largest contribution to feminism was uplifting the voice of chimamanda ngozie adichie, so… she’s the real hero here, and i think he’d agree with that.

5. guy fieri is known for discrimination and sexual harassment.

6. jonathan van ness has called himself a victim of misogyny bc he identifies as non-binary. i think it’s funny that you mentioned him in your list of “feminist men who want to change the world” when he actively says he’s not a man and centers himself in his “feminism”.

7. toby fox. normal guy. makes video games. hasn’t indicated anything about wanting to change the world or being a legitimate feminist.

[femmesandhoney]

"as [the patriarchy's] existence breeds the likes of incels AND terfs" another "women are responsible for what men do" believer! :) ty op for pushing more responsibility onto women for our literal oppression by men lmao.

also i despise the way these types talk about "the patriarchy" as if its god. something omnipotent and present without a discernable figure we can point at, that it in and of itself is separate from the men on earth who sustain it. newsflash, the patriarchy and men are the same thing. every single man, yes even the precious ones in your random list, all contribute and uphold the patriarchy. its men, all men whether they are actively misogynistic or actively feminists. this shouldn't be some crazy claim honestly, its just factual in how the sociological origins of the patriarchy work and how men and women are socialized into it. men benefit the most from it obviously and they will sustain it in the smallest ways without even realizing. for both men and women defending these men to be so defensive about this is just a barrier in actually getting anywhere in regards to feminism. acknowledge men uphold the patriarchy and all men are the patriarchy whether they like it or not, and then we continue from there. from there, its obvious men do not need to be liberated from patriarchy the way women need to be. sure men can be harmed by the rules they put in place for themselves, but its literally never gonna be the level of harm and oppression women face. its like if you had someone in a car crash asking for help and someone who fell and scrapped their knee was whining that all injuries are equal and to treat them equally and that these harms were equal.

feminism was not created to stop men from being a little bit inconvenienced by the patriarchy. it was to give women rights and freedoms. men trying to weasel their way into feminism because they believe women should pick up their burden (as per usual) is just plain out insulting to women and all the feminists who have come before us. if men care so much about their own issues they can create their own movements and responses without diminishing feminists and trying to tear down our work or refocus it to men.

[alwek]

All that to say men and women shouldn't be equal, damn you're fucked

[femmesandhoney]

mmm and where did i say that?

[alwek]

By being a terf, ha goteem

[femmesandhoney]

interesting so nothing i said actually implied or stated what you claimed it did. guess you enjoy not having any weight to your arguments now or ever, as per being a man i guess.

[alwek]

I enjoy saying "i think all people should be equal" and watching people like you seeth with vinegar as you try to tell me "no ACTUALLY we should be oppressing x group and you're a rapist for thinking otherwise"

[cqlqrcqdedwitch]

Is this not literally something a 4chan antifem would say?

You made the statement terfs [and radfems] aren’t feminist. People are just letting you know you have no idea what feminism actually is and you shouldn’t of brought up people who actually know what they’re talking about, to be able to daydream and world build about some utopia that doesn’t trigger you.

Do you routinely go into pan africanist and ADOS and pro black groups and tell them they really aren’t anti racism, but pro black people on top, even though you know about the same on that subject as you do about this one? aka not shit?

[ihatepissvortex]

recently learned that there is “radblr shipping” because these morons are so repugnant and unfuckable that they have to treat their incel forum misery spiral as a fandom. mentally they are trapped in like a mirror dimension 2014 where it’s the same culturally except everyone wants to kill themselves. please take solace in the fact that these people will never be able to reintegrate into human society

[pinkfannatic]

This is such a random thing to harp on because If you open twitter right now there’s a million “punch a terf” accounts with dragon and anime profiles roleplaying pissplay and sharing their discord servers ? 😭
