@ soft-mystic-stuffs “who's saying being attracted to the same sex is transphobic? That isn't a thing.“ People are saying that and I can prove it:

and countless more examples. The more you know, right? ^.^

[hexagon-club]

I saw someone say "when they say cis gay men they mean to say faggots" and I think you can read these posts with much more clarity once you factor that in

I can't help but think that if the way your food is produced is so disturbing that seeing videos of it counts as "shock content", it should probably be a sign that you should change your diet a bit

"why don't women want to share spaces with us?"

Where the hell is this from, do you have a video, or a place and date ? This feels like a Pride event.

[sigmadawg]

did some reverse image searching, apparently this is from a pride event in dresden, germany in 2022. from what i can tell, the earliest appearance of this photo is from a post on substack on sep 4, 2022 [link], but a more popular, cropped version was posted on twitter on the same day [link]. i couldnt find any photos of this particular float at different angles and idk why a float in germany would be in english and not. german. so take the image with a grain of salt. (im gonna do some more digging on the image brbbb)

edit and update! i found another photo of this float, posted on sep 5, 2022 on twitter [link]. looks like it was real after all. even when i give the benefit of the doubt to tras, i am proven wrong. sad but not surprising.

[thedifferenceisalotofemmmmmms]

this IS really a display of societal male dominance and pride in being male. It's also a display of hatred for females.

[venndaai]

have you guys heard about the greenland shark. some crazy shit happening there.

[venndaai]

they are sexually mature at ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS OLD.

their (live!) young gestate for. wait for it. eight to eighteen (??) YEARS. can have up to 10 at a time. good grief.

longest lifespan of any vertebrate, up to five hundred years

toxic flesh

has giant eyes but is usually blind because of a weird little crustacean that's evolved to live on and eat their eyes. this doesn't seem to bother them much.

lives in deep cold water and has the lowest swim speed and tail-beat frequency for its size across all fish species. just generally lives life in extreme slow motion

largest genome of any shark

eats everything including moose and polar bears

ma'am you are delightfully strange and I'm privileged to share a planet with you

[fluorescentbrains]

this post prompted me to refresh my memory on Greenland Shark Facts and this detail about how they feed goes so hard

just vacuuming up their unsuspecting prey. whole !

[muffinlance]

Good news good news good news! Recent research suggests the eye parasites do NOT blind them!

Eye-opening research: Greenland sharks maintain vision for centuries through DNA repair mechanism

Dorota Skowronska-Krawczyk sits in her office, eyes fixed on the computer monitor in front of her. "You see it move its eye," says the UC Ir

I <3 you a normal amount Greenland sharks

The three most basic changes of the vulva when women reach sexual maturity

Abundance of pubic hair

Longer inner labia

Darkening / pigmentation of labia

all happen to be the exact, specific things that men single out as “unappealing” traits for a vulva.

[sister-in-samsara]

Notice how we are being conditioned to like the childlike features of the vulva. That applies to men in particular, but the society in general is being taught that those natural traits are ugly and unhygienic. I had a conversation about this with a male friend and he was acting like pubic hair was a fetish, meanwhile they just grow there. Removing them should be considered a fetish, but it sells, so it's called normal.

Scientists uncovered the nutrients bees were missing — Colonies surged 15-fold

Scientists have developed a breakthrough “superfood” for honeybees by engineering yeast to produce the essential nutrients normally found in

TLDR- Modern agriculture pollen is low in nutrients, and there aren’t enough wildflowers. Science has to develop vitamins to supplement the diets of agricultural bees. So plant some wildflowers for the wild bees near you.

[heydocverdant]

you’ve heard of vitamin B, now get ready for bee vitamins

[ms-hells-bells]

hey remember when people would mock vegans and say that the sugar water replacement for stolen honey was more than enough?

This could literally be avoided by not mass cultivating domestic honeybees that outcompete native bees who are actually the efficient pollinators of native plants.

Once again for gender ideologues, segregation of the sexes is not comparable to racial segregation. Using this comparison is usually racist and unbelievably ignorant.

Racial segregation was put in place to alienate, disenfranchise, degrade, and control Black people in America. Any spaces that were accessible to Black people were usually put in inconvenient places and made with lesser quality. They could be jailed, beaten, or murdered for daring to use white facilities for ANY reason.

Black men and women have the same needs as White men and women. Segregating schools, restaurants, water fountains, and public areas was not for the protection of either class. It was meant to oppress. This is not the same as women fighting for their own protected spaces.

Sex segregated things like bathrooms, locker rooms, gyms and even schools emerged from the fact women were literally not allowed to be there in the first place. Feminists had to fight for a public bathroom, they had to fight for the right to an education. Even when women were legally allowed to have jobs and attend school they were subjected to mass amounts of sexual and physical violence.

Women created female only spaces for themselves. For their protection in public spaces that they have every right to occupy. Black women have the same need and right to safety from men that White women do.

Trans women are not being denied access to public spaces. They never have been. They can use public bathrooms, locker rooms, and gyms. They have never historically been banned from getting an education, having a job, being able to vote, getting an abortion, or owning property. They never had to use a 'trans only' water fountain, lest they be jailed or beaten.

Trans women just want access to female only spaces because it validates their identity. It doesn't offer them any real opportunities that they didnt have before. This is why its racist to compare the plight of Black women to Trans women. It completely ignores the aspect of sex based oppression. Trans women have the privilege of being born male. They have never had to experience sex based oppression and they never will.

Stop comparing Black women to men. Its racist.

[hurupasyt]

The comparison is especially sinister because sex segregation has already happened, and it was to discriminate against women. The female class was kept away from jobs and schools and rights. That's literally what we are trying to fight, by creating spaces for us to congregate and shed our woes. An accurate comparison would be transracials demanding access to whatever spaces we Black people have carved for ourselves, our schools, our churches, our communities, our rights, demanding centrestage in anti-racist movements.

"For something society taught women to hide, menstrual blood might be one of the body’s most powerful healing tools.

Research led by Dr. Jemma Evans at the Hudson Institute of Medical Research found that plasma derived from menstrual fluid helped repair wounds significantly faster than standard blood plasma in lab models. In human skin cells, menstrual fluid plasma achieved complete wound closure within 24 hours, compared to about 40% healing with regular blood plasma.

The findings are surprising, but it also makes sense. The uterine lining is one of the only tissues in the human body capable of rapid, scar-free repair, regenerating month after month throughout a woman’s life. Researchers found that menstrual fluid contains unique proteins that help cells move quickly to damaged tissue and support faster regeneration.

Mad about politics again

[drpepper-is-a-woman]

Y'all always want everyone to do the work for you. The people you call transphobic for their sexuality are now the ones obligated to protect you? From what? When will the favor ever be returned? Why do you all expect everyone to do the work for you?

[rad-feminist]

portaying “cis” LGB as a canine predator and trans as a meek little lamb is certainly a choice, especially when the rapey trans crowd tends to be more like a wolf in sheep’s clothing than an actual defenseless animal.

[harp-unstrung]

Wasn’t there an infographic or something that instructed TRAs to use that kind of thing?

It was either about in real life encounters with a ‘transphobe’ or maybe in art, but they suggested using lots of victim body language and posturing ‘submissively/passively?’

Choosing to represent yourself as a sheep is definitely a choice though.

"We're just making up for the girlhood we never got to have!!" 

My friend who left her Amish order at age 19, who was the eldest daughter to a family of nine, who never had a birthday party, whose days of cooking and cleaning and farm labor and taking care of her younger siblings started at 4:30 am, has never felt the urge to do ageplay 

My coworker, who raised her violent younger brother and fended for herself in a filthy double-wide trailer where her parents were either gone or raging drunk at home, who couldn't even dare to invite a friend over because of how horrifying her home life was, has never felt the urge to have a slumber party pillow fight

My neighbor's mother, who grew up as a house girl in southern India, who was born into a life of drugery and hiddenness and abuse, who wasn't allowed to even touch the toilet or dining utensils of the house she was forced to work in for 10 hours a day as a child, has never felt the urge to drink out of a Disney princess sippy cup 

MTFs do not want to experience girlhood. Girlhood as we lived it would have made these pampered, whiny, milksop men kill themselves. They want to live in the sexualized schoolgirl anime that was contrived entirely in the minds of men. None of us got to experience that girlhood, and yet none of us are desperately trying to recreate it as adults now.

[xcounterforcex]

"Parents usually try to protect girls more and dress them in pretty dresses" — yes, because for centuries, women's lives depended on whether the rich rapist would like them and buy them or not. Woman were literally raised for sale like cattle.

Just remember that "princesses," contrary to the stereotypes about their pampering, were mere bargaining chips. They were artificially pushed out of power, driven back to tea parties and dress fittings, because their primary function was to be sold and then regularly subjected to sexual and reproductive violence.

Your idea of ​​womanhood or girlhood is literally built on the propaganda of misogynists (who don't want to lose the opportunity to rape women so they block women's right movement) and the mockery of femicide. Just think about that twice.
