I dont wanna hear about stonewall anymore its a real and meaningful event but the way people make up mythos about it and pretend like gay rights movements worldwide were started at a random (and apparently mediocre) american bar in the 1960s and that every homosexual has to be beholden to the mythos of whatever tiktok is claiming happened there today is just exhausting. I read someone saying "marsha p johnson threw the first brick" is starting to sound more and more like "jesus died for your sins" and i couldn't agree more. Its exhausting, full of historically inaccurate myths by people, and just plain not relevant to homosexuals in 2026 especially the many homosexuals who are not american.

Transing women from history is lowkey giving mormons baptizing people after their dead. Oh, you think Mary Shelly is a he/they? Yeah, well these freaks think the Anne Frank is mormon so...

lesbianism is a sexuality meant to be EXCLUSIVE, its not a girly pop friend group you can join, its not a subculture, they are not girl scouts, you cant join just because you feel like it, it's a biological reality, leave my sisters alone

Growing up reading The Hunger Games definitely influenced how I view body hair. Looking back now, I appreciate how Suzanne Collins wrote Katniss going through all those unnecessary beauty treatments not as a makeover sequence, but as yet another way the Capitol tried to strip the tributes of their humanity and shape them into something else. Smooth. Wax-like.

Katniss describes the process as leaving her raw, vulnerable, a plucked bird ready for roasting. It's an interesting visual, what with her mockingjay wedding dress, her role as the girl on fire and a symbol for the rebellion, and of course the outcome of the war. But that's neither here nor there of course.

This passage used to make me genuinely sad as a 13 year old. Again she describes herself as plucked, raw. What's a bird without its wings?

People have taken to calling Katniss a "I'm not like other girls" main character. She repeatedly talks about how freakish the Capitol residents look, how Snow's puffy lips are unsettling, how she dreads being left to her prep team's whims and having yet another aspect of her agency taken away from her. It goes to show how reading comprehension is in the gutter these days. Collins' intent with writing the Capitol as she did couldn't have been more obvious. This is a YA series, of course the social critique is on the nose. Katniss was a traumatized child even before the games, starved and poor, responsible for the survival of her family. Of course these foolish beauty routines seem outlandish to her as an outsider, and that's because they are, people have just grown accustomed to them.

The first time I felt the need to shave my legs was the night of my high school graduation party and by the time I was done with one leg I knew it wasn't worth it. It felt wrong and it still does.

I hope young girls today have stories that depict body hair as a normal, human thing to have. I hope they know this expensive quest to remove all human aspects and render one's body as that of a wax doll isn't worth it.

Katniss Everdeen, they could never make me hate you ❤️

Hey if any of yall have had a radblr gateway drug (that woman who's radblr you started following first whether as a hate reader or a crypto) give them a shoutout here 🗣

Mine are @celtyradfem (RIP OG) and a Black woman who's not active anymore who used to go by @theuncensoredshe and its been 10+ years since I started lurking

[genderisareligion]

Also if I could request something from y'all much like @quinntheestallion did recently

When you were on those first radfem blogs hate reading or just a crypto, what was your last straw? What finally peaked you over the edge?

Asking because I've been radical feminist aligned since 2012 before gender nation attacked and "TERF" didn't exist outside obscure forums and I was pre sold on like 9/10 of radfem arguments before I ever got a whiff of the trans issue so the act of having to do a hard peak is foreign to me

But I want to make sure I portray the recent rabbit hole pace accurately for Ceremony my TRA character in Constant Craving

How long did it take you to "officially" peak?

[glitchwave-nihil]

Funny how I found out about radblr or radical feminism as a whole was through the whole limbus company fiasco (especially with the hate and harrassment on feminists because women dare to criticize a company who fired a female artist to appease the incels who were seething). Incels were so pissed off that the words/ideas/thoughts related to feminism seemed so so evil which made me read through what those feminists were saying, especially those who are aligned with radical feminism and in the end, I did agree with most of what they were saying since ofc I would agree with the women more rather than those incels.

I used to identify as nonbinary but I can say that what "peaked" me was realizing that I am just a GNC woman and that I'm a lesbian in 2023. Even as a lurker, everything all started as hatereading but seeing so many words that I did agree with, I started seeking out more posts here about radical feminism, especially the posts criticizing the usage of the q-slur to talk about SSA people, homophobia and misogyny in the LGB(TQ) community, and anti-makeup and anti-shaving sentiments.

Still have so much to say but really really huge thanks to @radical-ramblings and @runawaysiren940 (RIP) since watching their videos and reading through their posts helped me get here and lean more towards what I believe in today!

Stop trying to push gender non-conforming women out of womanhood

[radfae]

what i don’t understand about trans women needing to be included in lesbianism is that like… if males are going to be in my sexuality, then what am i attracted to if not sex? it’s not femininity, since butch lesbians have existed forever and reducing women down to spinny skirts is misogynistic in nature. you are… attracted to someone saying “i’m a woman”? you’re attracted to the pronouns she/her? i don’t understand. that is literally not how attraction works

[radfae]

almost 5 years on this post and i never really got an answer except for vague notions of ‘sexuality is complex, trans women are women’

[gncenjoyer-moved-deactivated202]

Mfs can theorize and write essays all day but in the end lesbians cannot and do not, under any circumstance, want to have sex with a man and gay men cannot and do not, under any circumstance, want to have sex with a woman. If you believe otherwise you don’t believe in homosexuality and you’re homophobic. That’s it boss

On the topic of sexual fluidity and conversion therapy, I wanted to reblog this post but I can’t because liberal-lesbophobia blocked me because I’m a lesbian so I’ll just sum it up: some conservative Christian conversion therapists are now abandoning the term “conversion therapy” (because, as they explain, the term “has been demonized”) and rebranding it as “sexual fluidity exploration in therapy”.

Now, fun games:

Go on the goodreads page of that book written by a bi woman where the main character starts out as a lesbian and ends up with a guy, filter for 5 star reviews (most of them written by bi women) and search for the word “fluid”. In the first 2 pages of reviews (and not counting the book’s blurb about ~the fluidity of love), I found 15 different people using the “sexuality is fluid” argument (usually in all caps) to defend the book. That’s why I called it a conversion therapy propaganda book.

Read the document written by the conversion therapists and notice the arguments that sound absolutely identical to what trans & bi women tell lesbians on a daily basis.

I’ll get you started: “The [term sexual fluidity exploration] accurately conveys that the therapist is not being coercive but merely assisting individuals in a client-centered examination of their sexual attractions.” (“Nobody’s forcing you to date transwomen, we’re just asking you to examine…”)

What they have to say about category change is also interesting: talking about sexual fluidity exploration rather than conversion therapy is better because it “does not imply that categorical change is the goal […] nor does it imply that change which is less than categorical in nature cannot be meaningful and satisfying to clients”. Which is exactly the way that bi woman who defended the book yesterday argued - the lesbian character does not become straight, therefore it’s not conversion therapy. Their rebranding efforts are really successful. Although mostly with people who were eager to support them in the first place.

And of course when they say “Scientifically, the fluidity of sexual orientation (and, for our purposes, especially same-sex attractions) for many women and men is now beyond question”, they quote Lisa Diamond to support their claim. Diamond, whose study shows that lesbian sexuality is not fluid at all. In fact the main thing her study shows is that bi women love to call themselves lesbians (”Other women with nonexclusive attractions would routinely change their identity labels in accordance with their current romantic partner or social network. If they were seriously involved with a woman, they identified as lesbian. If they were seriously involved with a man, they identified as bisexual or heterosexual, all the while acknowledging that they remained attracted to both sexes.”) and that it’s incredibly harmful to actual lesbians because bi women’s lies about their orientation will then be happily quoted by conversion therapists to convince their lesbian patients that they too can and should learn to love dick.

Conclusion: bi women, stop pretending sexuality is fluid, it hurts lesbians. Stop calling yourselves gay/lesbian, it hurts lesbians. But you know that, don’t you?

Don’t mean to hijack this post (feel free to ignore) but as a gay boy this is literally what I was put through when I was a kid by my mom looking for someone to “at least” make me bi since psych after psych told her making me straight was impossible. The whole argument of “why not explore your sexuality, why are you limiting it to just men when there’s a whole other world to explore?” was used against me for years and I even bought it myself for a while. And this was in Toronto, Canada!

And now I see this same argument used against young lesbians and gays and it’s fucking sickening to see this attitude be supported by the mainstream “queer” movement. We absolutely have to fight against it with all we can.

[sespursongles-deactivated201906]

Thank you for sharing this. I didn’t talk about gay/bi men because I don’t know anything about this dynamics and how it compares to lesbians vs. bi women, but of course “sexual fluidity” rhetoric is used against gay men too. It seems that the conservative side used to have a “hard” conversion narrative - “Same sex attraction is disgusting and unnatural, we can force you to be straight or at least never act upon your perverted gay impulses” - while the liberal/queer side uses a “soft” conversion narrative - “Same sex attraction is great as long as it’s not exclusive, don’t get me wrong of course you can’t become straight but surely you can be at least bi if you make an effort, we’re all a little bit bi/fluid, unlearn your prejudices, don’t limit yourself to one sex, try being less shallow and caring about personality more than genitals” etc. And the conservatives are realising that their hard narrative is becoming unpopular (“demonized”, as they say) so now they’re trying to adopt the more subtle liberal one. Of course from a gay person’s perspective both tactics are just as harmful since it’s about trying to force het sex or relationships on us, but while we’re usually able to build defences against the “classic” hard narrative, the “soft” tactic is more recent and more insidious, and a lot of us initially buy it, especially young gay kids when they hear it from their peers.

(Sometimes the lines are blurred in the other direction too - liberals slip and start accidentally spouting textbook “classic conversion” rhetoric, like “men who don’t like vagina / women who don’t like dick are unnatural perverted genital fetishists” (except, as exclusionaryhomosexual said, liberals tend to use (pseudo)science to justify it while conservatives use religion) or “lesbians can’t have real sex anyway so why not settle for a sexless het relationship” - proving that both groups have completely identical views of homosexuality, they just have different preferred methods to eradicate it.)

SOME WORDS STAY CURSED ── No matter how you dress them up. Homosexual men and women were beaten, assaulted, and murdered while hearing the q slur screamed at them. You can’t scrub the blood off with 'better' branding. Reclamation isn’t resurrection — it’s erasure of lived experiences.
