Men love women’s bodies, we are told, but only after women spend an inordinate amount of time whipping their bodies into a lovable shape—by dieting, shaving, waxing, dying, perfuming, covering with makeup, douching, and starving them.

Jane Ward, The Tragedy of Heterosexuality

i just don’t understand how we went from “being gay is not a choice” to “same sex attraction is inherently discriminatory and lesbians and gay men should critically examine their aversion to the opposite sex.” what happened? what went wrong? why do you hate us so much?

its still genuinely shocking to me that anyone could conflate radical feminism and any kind of conservatism. you'd have to be so stupid to believe that, its not even funny. its actually frightening to imagine someone that stupid. "yeah man, the radical, bra-burning, man-hating feminists are totally in bed with the pope. my source? uhh, they both think i shouldn't watch porn, that means they're identical!"

[eve-was-framed-pt2]

I don’t care if I’m The Friend That’s Too Woke I do believe it’s wrong to brainwash little girls with romance movies making them think men will treat them the way a disney prince treats a princess while their male peers are watching porn starting at age 6 and being radicalized on Instagram reels

it’s always like ”what someone else does to their appearance doesn’t affect you”. but it does though. that’s how social norms work. if everyone does [x] then [x] will be expected of me too. and i selfishly don’t want a lower salary for not wearing makeup, for not dying my hair when it goes grey, for not getting fillers.

The female body, when lacking the nutrients needed to run the body properly, shuts down the female reproductive system first. Libido shuts down; the menstrual cycle quits; she does not want sex--unless it is for either the affirmation or degradation of her body-- nor is she able to birth a child. All of her body's resources go purely to the continuation of her survival.

After the female body recovers from her starvation, there is a distinct possibility that she will never be able to get pregnant or carry a pregnancy to term. Even if she is able to, this process will likely be far more difficult and unlikely than it would typically be.

These facts directly dispute the oft repeated claim that a woman's biological purpose is to reproduce. When given the choice between survival and reproduction, the female body chooses, time and time again, survival. Reproduction is not prioritized in the slightest; in fact, it is often the very first bodily function to be shut down--literally deemed the least important part of a woman's body. And this choice of survival--the prioritization of the heart, the lungs, the bones--over the reproductive system is not even to the purpose of allowing a woman to reproduce later in life; no, the reproductive system is at the very least damaged, if not debilitated for the rest of the woman's life.

If the female body, as so many claim, was biologically "meant" to first and foremost reproduce, perhaps it would choose to increase libido and prioritize the reproductive system in order to let the woman birth a descendant before ultimately dying. This is not what the female body does. The female body itself declares that its own life, not that of which it could create, is the most important, that the female body, alive, is worthy even if it never passes its genes on. The female body declares that it is not alive only to further humanity, to reproduce and then die, but instead to live; to live its own life, following the desires of the woman in command of it and no one else.

The next time someone tries to insist that women are biologically meant for nothing more than populating the earth in the cage of kitchens and bedrooms, remind them of the hundreds of thousands of women living their lives, making scientific discoveries, creating art, and leading nations who survived an attempt of making themselves small, and now take up space, for years, completely unable to reproduce.

One thing that led me to detransitioning was the realization that I hated being a woman, I didn’t hate being female. I hated being made to be quiet, being always less than my male peers and male friends and brother, being sexualized from a young age. I hated being forced to wear feminine clothing that made me feel horrifically uncomfortable, I hated the idea that I HAD to be interested in sex especially sex with men, I hated never being listened to or seen as intelligent, I hated not being safe to enjoy the things I enjoyed (nature hiking, comic book conventions, etc). I just wanted to be seen as HUMAN. Unfortunately no pronouns will ever make the world see female human beings as actually human. But I don’t hate being female. My female body connects me to other female people, as a sister and a friend and a lover. My body serves me. My body is able to create fucking human life. My body cleanses my insides every month to protect me from infection. My body is a fucking marvel of nature. It never needed to change. I never needed to change.

Isn’t it interesting how a form of privilege (being rich or white) will cancel out a form of oppression (misogyny) when it comes to women, but when it comes to men, it's the opposite? A form of oppression (being poor, disabled, gay, black, etc) will cancel out a form of privilege (being a man)? 🤔🤔🤔

asking the “genital preference” crowd what they think happens during conversion therapy is always fun because you get to see them completely short circuit

[tehm-ally]

ive actually never seen one of them attempt to answer

[drenren]

I’m convinced they all think it’s medieval torture and shock therapy. They don’t want to admit that their rhetoric is lifted directly from modern conversion therapy.

You’re being selfish. you’re being shallow. Why are you so obsessed with genitalia? You’re telling me that all you’re interested in is sex? Have you considered a sexless relationship? You can always try and see how you feel. Just because you didn’t like it once doesn’t mean you will never like it. Let’s talk about why you’re so fixated on genitalia. What if you found you soulmate, but it turns out they’re the opposite sex, you would really just lose interest? Look how you’re hurting all these people - you’re saying you find them repulsive? How do you think that feels?

I’ve heard it all. I’ve been through it all. Modern TRA rhetoric is literally conversion therapy and it’s often actually more overtly hateful and full of vitriol than the standard

[apostasy-is-ecstasy]

I was put through conversion therapy as a teenager. There were no electric shocks involved, no chemicals, no beatings. What did happen was a very friendly, charismatic and manipulative woman sat me down twice a week, asked me simple questions about how I experienced attraction and then shamed me and nitpicked every single answer I gave.

It's a subtle psychological torture, no matter how resilient you are it will slowly get under your skin and stay there. Conversion therapy isn't what was portrayed on AHS you idiot children, it's literally the same things I see on twitter every day.

males argue against rape allegations using the "it was rough consensual sex" excuse, made credible by the popularization of violent porn and BDSM/kink—which often mimics, if not outright depicts, the crime of rape.

this is not an accident. the recent normalization of "women like rough sex" directly harms rape victims who are seeking justice, and gives rapists an easy out for their crimes. it is a facet of rape culture. it promotes victim blaming. it is, at its core, one of the most insidious forms of misogyny.

[gnomebutch]

listen to sexworkers but only the ones filming anonymously from the comfort of their bedrooms and never the ones who are trafficked or groomed and are forced to do scenes that they don’t want to with people they don’t want to at the risk of their livelihood or even life because those stories bum me outttt and therefore don’t count despite making up the majority of cases.

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?

[lesbofuturism]

Male porn addiction fuels violence against women but liberal feminists would rather argue semantics about if it is truly an addiction or not than acknowledge the reality that women are exploited to satisfy a man’s sexual urges.

[kiefbowl]

the most important virtues for the young woman are as follows: time theft, selfishness, orgasms, irreverence to authority, sacrilegious behavior, a questioning mind, and eating regular meals.

Some people really are like "it's okay to have a rape kink, but saying women are female... well, that's just too much"

[niiwa-angel]

"it's okay to fantasize about raping your little sister, but saying lesbians don't like males... Well, that's just dangerous"
