I had to reblog this, this is what I call a boss.

do you ever feel the need to ask someone if they still want you in their life because it always feels like they don’t care about you or that you are bothering them.

I think what bothers me so much about the “feminists are ugly” or “feminists are hairy” or “feminists are lesbian” stereotypes is— So fucking what? Some of us ARE ugly. Some of us ARE hairy. Some of us ARE lesbians. And it shouldn’t fucking invalidate anything we’re fucking saying to you. But you know, if you believed that, if you actually believed that our sexual usefulness to men is irrelevant to the conversation about our basic human rights, you wouldn’t be a fucking misogynist, would you?

If you’re reblogging this and adding conventionally beautiful heterosexual feminists, you’re missing my point entirely.

Our attractiveness to men and/or our willingness to fuck them should not determine the validity of our movement.

Stop fighting the “Feminists are ugly lesbians” stereotype by shouting, “No, we’re not!” Fight it by acknowledging that that’s a shitty critique of a movement for people who want our human rights. The fact that this is even a problem - that our cause is so often critiqued not by discussions about our ideas but about whether or not we are sexually attractive to men or willing to fuck them - is proof that we’re being viewed not as human beings who deserve rights but as sexual objects.

When someone dismisses your cause because they can’t/don’t want to fuck the people in it, your response should not be, “LOOK, SOME OF US ARE FUCKABLE!” It should be, “What a shitty person you are for believing that’s a requirement for us to be worth listening to.”
