three girlfriends. all named rat. 😪🐁🐁🐁 @gynoids-over-androids - Tumblr Blog

While reading "caliban and the witch" and "women as wombs" I was struck by the realization of how similar Mechanical Philosopy's and christian ideas during the industrial revolution sound to today's transhumanism-queer theory-trans activism-liberal feminism (and the rest of Donna Harraway's fandom) . I also draw the parallel between the two historical periods - intense evolution of technology and society.

Here's the table of these similarities. Any thoughts? 🙏

Yeah yeah it’s cool that men are allowed to wear make-up now, but can we finally allow women to stop wearing make-up? Or is that side of the coin not profitable enough

Fucking SAY IT. The only reason it’s fun for men is because they know they can take the costume off at any time and still be seen as a human being.

This is a reminder for those who handmake Christmas presents that now is not too early to start. It may in fact be a good time to start if you have a lot to make/your craft takes a long time. You should maybe start it now, whether that's brainstorming or actually doing the crafts!

you cannot make your url some shit like cumsoakedcatgirl while posting barely censored furry porn then wonder why your posts are being flagged like i keep seeing so many of these people complaining about that recently

So we're at the just openly defending genocide stage of fascism on Tumblr right now. That's...a thing now.

I love that any issue about women is 'especially insidious when leveled at trans women' but this one takes the cake for me.

“Ngl I feel bad for Marie Antoinette being dragged like that centuries after her tragic death, when she wasn't even actually that much responsible for the people's suffering at that time. You may even say she was a victim of fake news & misogyny.” - Submitted by Anonymous

She was born Maria Antoina Josefa Johanna and was married off at the age of 14 to a man she'd never met in a country she wasn't from. Her marriage was arranged to secure an alliance between Austria and France. She had to give up all rights to her Austrian heritage including her name.

She is most criticized for outrageous spending, ordering luxurious gowns and ostentatious wigs while France was suffering a financial crisis (possibly all the wars they'd been waging but who really knows) --but ironically also caused scandal because she eventually did away with big panniers and heavy makeup and preferred a more simplistic dress (The aristocratic were pissed because she wasn't dressed properly, and the peasant class was pissed because she was apparently role playing at peasantry-it became increasingly clear she had to walk a balanced line of public opinion).

And of course they hated her because she didn't get pregnant for several years. And when she did get pregnant they accused her of infidelity (nevermind that nearly every king, Duke, lord and what had a mistress, everyone knows its fine if men do it). Rumors about her flew because she was as easy to love as she was to hate and since she wasn't French and was often sympathic to Austria she was an easy target. She suffered several miscarriages and had two children die young. Some of the rumors about her are awful: that she wanted to bathe in blood of citizens or that she had an incestuous relationship with her son. Nevermind the "let them eat cake" thing. They made pamplettes (twitter hadn't been invented yet) to spread stories and rumors.

And then of course they killed her. By then the royalty already had no power. Keep in mind the revolutionaries who took over were not exactly "everyone gets the vote!" kind of guys. Napoleon would later crown himself Emperor even though he had partaken in the Revolution.

Marie Antoinette was, put simply, the Britney Spears of her time. Or Amanda Bynes or Amber Heard or even Hillary Clinton--or any woman in a highly visible, political environment atmosphere. She was a punching bag for France's frustrations. And long after her death the French have benefitted from her name and the imagery associated with her. They fucking love it; if the opening ceremony told us anything it told us the French love their fashion and scandal. Even in death she has become a mascot. La petite crucifixion or whatever.

I wish the conversation around Ballerina Farm had far less “umm that’s just white feminism sweetie, it isn’t a big deal and other women have it worse so why are we even talking about this?” and more “if even a wealthy, young and attractive white woman is being treated this badly, then think about how horrible things must be for less privileged women”

thesinisterspinster

I think it's important for everyone to reconise she herself is not ritch her husband is that's part of his control over her. If her father was well off well that's not her money either. This poor woman has no job her passion ballet was ripped away from her within a year or marriage and she has been pregnant most of the time since the first child.

I really need at least radical feminist but preferably everyone that a woman is not ritch because her husband is. And putting ritch in front of woman does not make that woman an acceptable target for whatever bullshit.

Watching all the amazing women at the Olympics is truly inspiring🥹

Truly blessed to be alive at the same time as Simone Biles. Just learned she’s EIGHT YEARS past the average female gymnast retirement age and she is still improving and winning against much younger athletes + she’s likely preparing to compete in another Olympic Games in 2024.

A male gymnast could never achieve Simone Biles’ feats, they simply aren’t built for it. I appreciate how gymnastics is uniquely sexed because it shows women can dominate in feats of strength and physicality if the movements are designed to play to their physiological strengths.

But I really can’t stress enough how important her story is to young girls interested in athletics. Sports were so important to me growing up, but female athletes reach a point where they can no longer ignore that the boys are drawing bigger crowds, they are drawing more attention, they get the nicer locker rooms, nicer fields, nicer training facilities. You grow up and you realize there’s no place for you at the professional level, but there’s plenty of million dollar opportunities for the males. You realize the furthest you can go is college and that level of play for women only exists because title IX demanded it. You start to question yourself and your purpose. It often feels like the rest of the world is screaming at you that women’s sports are boring and nobody cares. You understand that men have a brute strength advantage that you can never overcome no matter how hard you train. People often insinuate this means women’s sports have no value, why would anyone want to watch the weaker sex compete? And it’s heartbreaking, because you didn’t ask for this female body with higher body fat percentages and lower muscle-building capacity to support the reproductive system, you’re just a kid who wants to play her favorite game. Your body feels like a curse. But Simone Biles tells a different story. What if athletics were appealing not solely because of the strength involved? What if factors such as flexibility, endurance, and balance were emphasized more? These too are athletic qualities!! These too are exciting to watch and difficult to master!! She changes the narrative that is subtly but pervasively shoved down our throats that sports=strength. Her technical skill is almost unfathomable and I could really go on all day about all the boundaries she’s broken in sports and how important her presence in sports media is. In summation: thank you for truly being the greatest of all time 🐐 SIMONE BILES.
