There has been over the years a proliferation of MRA rhetoric about family courts as an example of 'anti male biases/ misandry' in society. These arguments are based on nothing other than lies and vibes that are easily absorbed as under the conditions of patriarchy it is hardly difficult to convince people that women are evil privileged bitches who live life on easy mode.
This idea is, in simple terms, absolute nonsense that persists for no reason other than misogyny.
It has been shown time and time again before this UK article + study that family courts are institutionally biased against women despite what most people believe. A woman who alleges abuse against her ex partner is MORE likely to lose her case and access to kids then those who don't. (1) Claims of 'parental alienation' further compound this (2). Especially, as these legal processes are often used by male abusers as a way to maintain access to their ex female partners in order to further harm, abuse, and degrade them (3).
Family courts are not bias against fathers or men, they are not stacked in favour of the mother, and they certainly don't just let women 'take the kids and money and run'. They, like all major institutions formed under the conditions of patriarchy, are deeply misogynistic in their functions, treatments, and outcome.
MRAs lie. Misandry isn't real.

low poly off fanart that i did for this years Low Poly Day on Newgrounds!
Likely one of the funniest things we will get from the extremely late-to-the-party among us show
its infuriating watching people talk around transmisogyny on this website like its some sort of abstract issue, and not an indicator of attitude. heres one experience i had: a transmasc coworker became obviously uncomfortable when i mentioned transmisogyny and started handwringing about female socialisation. less than a week later he sexually harassed me on the job.
like do you get it? he thought he couldnt harm me because hes not like other men and implicitly understands what women want, and im not like other women and i am therefore not liable to be harmed.that i do not want this doesnt enter his head.
but it cashes out exactly the same doesnt it? he uses power to put me in my place. he sees me as a sex object, he feels safe to indicate this to me. he, by whispering an unsolicited comment to me about my body in a quiet moment, perpetrates just one more utterly unremarkable instance of a man seeing a woman as beneath him. because in neglecting transmisogyny he has become just like the men he presumes his difference from. and if you dont get with it, youll do just the same :)
happy pride 🩷🤍🩵
my ability to take this 🫢 emoji seriously has been obliterated by that one image
getting this image beamed into my head psionically whenever i see it used in any context
¡Feliz jueves!
basically the only thing that brings me joy is being silly and whimsical and everyone thinks im a fuck ing idiot because of it
this was meant to be a jesterpost but this is actually just true
here's a transparent version made by @xener-aol. so she can show you other things
if i was somebody's older lesbian aunt and my little niece developed an incest fixation on me i would straight up hate her over it. like i am just a regular woman trying to lead a norma life, i'm lonely as fuck cus all the lesbians now are 20 and dont want to date someone my age, and this random little twerp i'm barely related to keeps engineering situations where she's sitting in my lap or wiggling her butt in my face, like what the fuck!! my life is hard enough already!!! i dont need this!! i need a 38 year old gardening enthusiast who enjoys medical dramas
oh and i know my sister would be so mad at me over it. she would absolutely blame me. as if its my fault her daughter is some kind of nympho freak whos obsessed with hitting on women she will never have a chance with, its bullshit! its really fucking annoying! but whatever, her whole family is annoying, ever since she married fucking Chet, who after like 19 years i still cannot stand, and decided for some fucking reason to have KIDS with him, god. i cannot stand it. i cannot stand it at all
i may have gotten a little too invested in this hypothetical scenario
in retrospect I think i was appropriately invested in this hypothetical scenario. if that happened to me I would be pretty upset about it. I'd be mad. I think you were totally right past maddie
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH
every time i think about overwatch's orientalism i go a lil more insane. 5 japanese characters all of which are tied to a very stereotypical mythologized version of japan. they're some of the few explicitly magical characters. all of them are part of clans and lineages and shit. every map that takes place in japan is an orientalist fairy land with idyllic old looking villages with shrines and gates and cobblestone and zero utility poles in sight. this game is so incredibly racist
what's interesting to me is that no other asian characters get this treatment. mei is a climate scientist or something. diva is a gamer. lifeweaver and symmetra are scientist. something about japan specifically makes the overwatch devs get a boner for the image of a permanently ancient magical other, japanese characters are simply not allowed to be contemporary
thank fucking god someone else was thinking this too
I don't know... Torbjorn just so happens to be incredibly short, Scandinavian, and an industrious crafter.
Reinhardt just so happens to be a massive German man who is serious humorless and a literal knight.
Sombra just so happens to be a Mexican criminal with ties to organized crime, a preference for machine pistols (like those popularized in 'drive bys') and a soft spot for poor under privileged persons.
Mercy just so happens to be a Swiss woman who is great at science and healthcare.
Zenyatta is from Nepal and physically designed to be evocative of Buddhist, in addition to being a member of a famously pacifist organization.
Like, Overwatch doesn't do any cultures any favors. They are the most watered down, most stereotyped, most trope-laiden versions of the characters they can be-
because that's the point. You're supposed to be able to read the character at a glance, to understand who and what they are about without reading or watching a single narrative-driven second about them, to feel like you know the character just from hearing their random chirps during gameplay.
"We've reached the level of technology that we can larp as whatever we want to!"
"Fuck yeah, we're making anime real!"
"Fuck yeah, we're making fantasy novels real!"
"Fuck yeah, we're making The Turner Diaries real!"
"GET 'IM!"
Overwatch in a nutshell
you're arguing that it's a good thing that overwatch stereotypes its characters because it makes it more readable to white racists. get off my fucking post lol
It's so obvious that so many of you see racism as just a minor oopsie that causes no material harm. Why are racialized people not allowed to talk about our oppression? Why are we always the ones who have to forgive and rebuild bridges? Why do we have to forget and ignore that so many people don't see us as human beings? Why are we not allowed to be hurt when somebody decided that our centuries of suffering is something to laugh at and make light of? Why are we erased when we express our hurt in order to dismiss it? Why are we obligated to forgive and forget while this system continues to hold a boot on our necks?
No I'm not fucking defending transmisogynistic harassment campaigns or pedojacketing against Gooseworx nor is it ignoring the fact that white transfems get scrutinized more for racism than any other group of white people. I've already fucking talked about this on my blog, and also how a lot of the people talking about a transfem's racism wouldn't give a fuck if they're TME.
That being said, fuck if I'm not pissed that a bunch of people on my dashboard have outed themselves as being unsafe for trans women of color by saying "stop talking about the racism of the TADC cast." There'll never be a "right time" to talk about this. If this was said about any other form of bigotry then y'all would flip your shit. But since it doesn't affect you personally it's perfectly fucking fine I guess. Thanks for abandoning your racialized sisters because you can't take racism seriously.
