We read Persepolis, and watched the adaptation, in the 10th grade, and it's stayed with me ever since. I'm eternally in awe of Marjane Satrapi's bravery and resilience, and may she rest in peace.

I think the terms “rapejacketing” and “pedojacketing” were invented because “false allegations” sounded too obviously incel-y

Chat is it puritanicalism to just not want to have your word hijacked by people who don't understand how lesbianism works?

AROMANTIC PEOPLE

ASEXUAL PEOPLE

AND AROACE PEOPLE

ALL BELONG IN THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY

I WILL REMOVE EVERY BONE IN YOUR BODY IF YOU SAY OTHERWISE

[11thfempachi]

What does "belonging" mean? What's the purpose of it? Lgb movement was about fighting against the persecution of people attracted to the same sex and many trans people joined due to their unique status in society and in relationships; what are asexuals doing there? What are they looking for?

Why Are Libfems… like she almost got the point, but because of sex posi bullshit she spun it the wrong way. It’s SAD that so many women in kink/BDSM are trying to use it as a bandaid coping mechanism for trauma. It’s sad that the men involved in that scene prey upon women they know are vulnerable. It’s not badass by any means. Hypersexuality as a response to trauma shouldn’t be romanticized.

Here is a video on re-victimization from the sex positivity guru herself. She actually does a good job talking about the topic dispite not recognizing how BDSM is abuse and encourages re-victimization:

[thecoloredcanvas]

Imagine if we treated any other form of trauma like this.

Are you traumatized by being beaten by your alcoholic father when you were a child? Have you tried asking your partner or a friend to get drunk and beat you, so that you can finally be in control of your life and fully recover?

Are you traumatized by spending time in a war zone? Have you tried asking your friends to explode a bunch of shit around you and pretend to be dead so that you can experience the healing powers of consent?

Experienced enslavement and suffering trauma as a consequence? Why not become someone’s human pet and let them lead you around on a leash and make you eat out of a dog bowl and do all their house chores? Don’t you know how liberated and free it will make you feel, to be willingly objectified and subjugated?

Like?

People just say this shit. There are no studies to back it, no logic to support it.

Yet here we are.

every time i scroll past this i read the first line of the tweet and go yeah, we should look into the connection between males who are into fucked up things and rapists. and then i read the rest of it.

I’m going to say something that might sound crazy. Suicide and suicide attempts are sort of a societal alarm bell that says “something is very wrong with the environment this individual was in.” A living being choosing to take themselves out of existence is the most extreme act of distress there is. The state stepping in to silence this alarm bell by funneling suicidal people into a state sanctioned euthanasia program, normalizing this act through a socially accepted bureaucratic system, is not a good thing. It goes hand in hand with the state’s interest in maintaining the status quo at the expense of the population and the psychiatric industry’s interest in individualizing societal problems to extract profit and aid the existing system. It’s saying “there are no complaints here, just people with sick brains, carry on.”

[feminist-furby-freak]

TRAs outing themselves as pedo apologists. Can’t believe people actually think like this and voluntarily tell on themselves online.

[niiwa-angel]

There is no such thing as a non-offending pedophile, just one that hasn't been caught yet.

They need to eat less because they're so small and weak. Why are they so small and weak? Because they eat less. Let's base our entire society on this distinction.
