YEAGH...

I'M BACK

[laffytaffeta]

Taffy (24) ♥︎ American woc ♥︎ STEM triple major masochist ♥︎ gender abolitionist ♥︎ CSA/trafficking survivor and prostitution abolitionist ♥︎ detrans after 10 years/4 years on T ♥︎ kink critical ♥︎ local dive bar diva ♥︎ hilarious woman

I like having fun outside with my friends, playing pool, drinking coors, fishing, and having a smoke with my buddies. My fav things are raves, rodeos, and reading xoxo

My opinions below

♥︎ The focus of feminism is female rights, safety, and liberation. Rights to fair wage, housing, employment, voting, and bodily/reproductive autonomy. Safety from rape, femicide, trafficking, female genital mutilation, public attacks, medical misogyny, and female infanticide. Liberation from institutions of forced marriage, prostitution/sex trafficking, financial abuse/control, male encroachment on female spaces, and patriarchal brainwashing from pedophillic beauty standards, purity culture, gender roles, and religious disempowerment.

♥︎ Misandry is not real. It hurts feelings where misogyny kills. Female dignity >>>> male feelings.

♥︎ Misogyny is prevalent in all things. Especially normalized in language with the use of slurs like bitch/whore/cunt/slut/etc. We can get playful and reclaim stuff once yall stop letting moids use slurs

♥︎ Detransitioners deserve to be heard, helped, and treated as human. Performing optional medical procedures on minors is child abuse.. Let children be GNC safely.

♥︎ All financially coerced sex is rape. All surrogacy is human trafficking. Women are not commodities to be bought, even the ones who are selling themselves. You can protect and support prostitutes without raping them, all johns go to hell.

♥︎ You cannot change your sex. Names, pronouns, and physical appearance are not your sex, are all up to you, and its your right to do what you want with them. GNC people are lovely and deserve to be celebrated.

♥︎ TIMS and feminine men are not women, they deserve to be safe, free, and look how they want to look, as everybody does. However they do not experience the world as females. Gender is not a feeling, any "feelings" of gender are just the sexist stereotypes you personally align with. Male crimes do not belong in female statistics. Male bodies do not belong in female spaces. Male misogynists do not deserve to speak over women on feminism. We can tell when its a fetish.

♥︎ Misogynistic violence is heavily prevalent, normalized, and excused in LGBT/Queer spaces and it needs to be addressed. If you can say "Kill all TERFs" (aka advocate for violence, rape, and torture against women you disagree with) don't expect respect from me or any of us.

♥︎ Feminism isn't just for the females you agree with. Het partnered women, religious women, transmasc females, conservative women, pro-sw women, libfems and others who uphold the patriarchy still deserve protection from it. We don't victim blame here.

♥︎ BDSM critical/Anti "choice" feminism, because eroticizing your oppression is a grooming tool of the patriarchy and an EFFECTIVE one. You need to come to terms with the fact that not everything you do, participate in, and support as a woman is inherently feminist and that is just how the world works. Choice feminism will try to coddle you into thinking your makeup, religion, kinks etc are empowering when they are indeed patriarchal. Its a tough pill to swallow but trust I am in the same boat.

♥︎ YOU CAN BE SEX POSITIVE AND CRITICAL OF KINK/FETISHIZED ABUSE/CSA/ZOOPHILIA, AND EXPLOITATION. I support women having sex, masturbating, and feeling good I just don't support males using sex as a means to oppress women.

That being said I personally am never going to be separated from the patriarchy. I will never denounce my religion, I would rather reap the social benefits from adhering to beauty culture, I will marry a man, and years of grooming since childhood into kink/fetishes doesn't go away overnight. I support female separatism and radical feminism but I am recently peaked and will always rather choose to be honest than a hypocrite. xo

[pumpumdemsugah]

The US is such a cartoonishly misogynistic country and it's treated as if its not

Glanced at American news and Republicans are trying to pass a bill to track pregnancies and would allow the gov to track pregnancies beginning to end so they gov can say if a foetal death is suspicious or not.

Its always sobering how little the threat to women moves or mobilises the American left. Intellectually i know left movements do not care about women unless womens groups or leftist feminist harass them into having morals and good politics. They kept a dead woman's body alive long enough to grow a baby who they cut out so premature, there is no telling what the quality of life will be, forced the family to pay to keep her alive and beyond women, it didnt seem to spark anything. The gov can keep your rotting body alive as a woman to grow a foetus and the American left wont be moved. They're still mad about the fucking pussy hats

Seeing someone you follow reblog one or two posts about women’s rights: hell yeah

Seeing someone you follow reblog six or seven posts about women’s rights: red flag red flag red flag red flag-

[opabiniawillreturn-deactivated2]

supporting women's rights is a red flag?

“your feminism can be a quaint hobby but don’t go taking it seriously as a political movement or we’re going to have a problem”

[drbased]

So something I theorised several years ago is that 'gross out humour' primes boys into sexual harassment of girls. So much 'gross out humour' is directed at males, boys especially, and they learn from a young age to view their various bodily fluids (snot, earwax etc.) as not just a source of comedy but a means by which to terrorise girls, who are likewise primed to be 'above' that kind of low-brow comedy. Images of boys behaving grossly with girls responding with 'EW' are commonplace across media and especially were common in the 90s and 2000s. Even earlier than that, 'mooning' was seen as a harmless silly prank committed by boys - and I think it's notable that how despite supposed homosexual fears of anal sex, males have been able to turn a vulnerable area into a tool of harassment.

It's also worth noting here that this 'gross out humour' has been used as an explicit sexual and pornographic dogwhistle in various nickelodeon shows. Back when I first thought about this, the scandal had not been exposed yet, and it supports my theory, providing the 'missing link' so to speak between childhood gross-out humour and adult sexual harassment involving bodily fluids.

[girlfishes]

Also interesting is that when women say that TIMs can never understand what women go through, TRAs often say “so you’re defining womanhood through suffering”.

No, what we are saying is that our suffering is why the definition of a woman is important. We cannot overcome oppression when we are not free to speak of its nature.

[xxactlyperfect]

Misogyny is a huge part of being a woman, just like racism is a huge part of being non-white. Only one of these gets overlooked by the new-age libs.

[quickeggs]

Bruh misogyny is not comparable to racism. like yeah it sucks but what is a typical yt woman facing that’s worse than what a poc of any gender is going through?

why do yt women act like shit is the handmaids tale right now. like it is but not for you guys

[parthenogenetica]

"Misogyny is not comparible to racism" found the piece of shit westerner that only thinks in terms of White women and Not White women

[quickeggs]

you dumb bitch I literally have native in my bio. It takes 2 seconds to read instead of making assumptions

[parthenogenetica]

I have native in my bio and i am all of 19 years old therefore I am immune to criticism for my dogshit assbackwards take that does not actually address any real issue with misogyny and instead seeks to whine about women and get away with it by slapping white in front of it

[lacangri21]

This androgen infected pig is everything wrong with moids of color. He's fucking Native and he uses a misogynistic slur while also gaslighting Women about how sexism doesn't exist meanwhile what do his mother and sisters think about the abuse rates of Native Women by Native moids and MMIW and forced sterilization and "survival sex work" in the Native community? Fuck him I'm glad his account is dead.

[veganfeministfromhell]

"Misogyny is not comparable to racism" yes because misogyny is worse and I will die on this hill

[eukaryotasmain]

Im so sick of these men of colour thinking they’re allowed to be misogynistic pricks

[servin-terf-haha]

What's that saying, "even the most oppressed man in the world always had the right to beat his wife?" Yeah, that.

[laffytaffeta]

Actually lets talk about how Native men contribute to misogyny and how the misogyny is VERY MUCH RACIALLY MOTIVATED. Lets talk about how sonnyboys will literally watch their mother's slave away for them and excuse them for anything and force their sisters, aunties and female peers into subservience. Lets talk about how despite the front row to misogyny they act like its just cultural roles and "being a good woman" and upholding out cultural traditions. Lets talk about how men become alcoholics disproportionately more and beat their wives. MMIW and trafficking affects all of us but it isnt just settlers stealing our sisters YOU ARE ALSO BEATING US TO DEATH AT HOME.

Lets also tak about how ndn men act entitled to and fetishize us. How they shame us and call us "colonized"/race traitors for being in interracial relationships, same sex relationships, regardless of whether or not that partner is white.

Lets also talk about how we get looked at as breeding opportunities, how they will justify entitlement towards our bodies as "fixing the blood quantum". Because it goes beyond just being incels, we will literally be shamed and pressured by native men to have sex with them as a moral obligation BECAUSE we have been oppressed.

NDN MENS MISOGYNY UPHOLDS RACISM FFS

[evilgothmisandrist]

“ITS CULTURE!!! ITS THEIR RELIGION!!! ITS THEIR TRADITION!!! YOU ARE BEING RACIST!!!”

i do NOT care ! 😍 if it’s misogynistic i AM going to hate on it ! 🙏

[our-side-of-history]

So why *can't* we have a word for, "adult human female?" Seems like a significant group with lots in common (and lots to talk about.) And why can't that word be "woman?"

[pillarsalt]

The biggest threat to male supremacy is class consciousness among women. If they let us out of their sight for a second, we might realize how much insidious bullshit men put us through all our lives, and how we can rely on each other instead of depending on them. No way to label ourselves cohesively = no female solidarity. It's absolutely by design.

[nosaviorofyoursnofriendofmine]

the “block op they’re a terf” movement was so thorough that now none of the libfems have any idea what radical feminism is about. I just saw a post saying that we enforce rigid gender roles and most of us are white like…not only are there a LOT of radfems of color (including myself), our whole thing is abolishing gender while acknowledging sex based oppression

[theradicalwitch]

they can’t dismantle radical feminism with legit criticism so they have to rely on silencing/avoiding/misrepresenting our arguments.

[androc1dal]

imagine being so gullible that you can’t even fathom listening to / debunking an argument you disagree with. it’s honestly pathetic.

[we-have-black-marble-at-home]

leftist men be like look i'm sorry you were groomed and assaulted by a transwoman but you gotta be a little quieter about it because you're hurting their feelings which i'm prioritizing because i'm acutely aware they're male

[humblekitten]

Marsha P. Johnson was not a trans woman. He was in a documentary two days before he died where he said “I’m a man”. In the 60s and 70s, he identified as a “gay transvestite”. His close friends used both male and female pronouns and he didn’t take offense to either. He didn’t even live as “Marsha” all of the time, he went back and forth between living as Malcolm and living as “Marsha”.

Sylvia Rivera wasn’t a trans woman either. In 1971 he called himself a “transvestite” and a “half-sister”. He wrote an essay titled “Transvestites: Your Half Sisters and Half Brothers of the Revolution” where he says that “Transvestites are homosexual men and women who dress in clothes of the opposite sex.” In an interview in 1995 with Randy Wicker and in a 2002 essay titled “Queens In Exile, The Forgotten Ones”, he variously calls himself a “gay man”, a “gay girl” (probably in the “gurl” sense, not the female sense), and a “drag queen.” He knew he was male…“The early 60s was not a good time for drag queens, effeminate boys or boys that wore makeup like we did. Back then we were beat up by the police, by everybody. I didn’t really come out as a drag queen until the late 60s.” He did not identify with the word transgender…“People now want to call me a lesbian because I’m with Julia [his mtf partner], and I say, “No. I’m just me. I’m not a lesbian.” I’m tired of being labeled. I don’t even like the label transgender. I’m tired of living with labels. I just want to be who I am.”

Lastly, Marsha Johnson has alleged that Sylvia Rivera lied about being at the Stonewall riots, Rivera might not have been there at all. This is backed up by Stonewall historian David Carter who says that Rivera’s claim to have been at the riot was a “fabrication” and that Rivera’s various tellings of the story were riddled with inconsistencies. The true story, backed up by Marsha’s roommate Randy Wicker and gay activist Doric Wilson, is that Rivera had fallen asleep in a public park after taking heroin and he only learned about the riots after Marsha Johnson found him, woke him up, and recounted the events. According to Carter, no credible witness has ever been found who saw Rivera at Stonewall during the riots.

that one tweet that’s like “90% of posts online can simply be responded with I Don’t Think You Should Be Talking About Women Like That”

[swissjeez]

it’s actually so fucking insane to me that leftists can hold the belief that white people, due to their socialization in a racist society, are all inherently racist to some degree and need to constantly be checking themselves and doing work to be actively anti-racist.

but those same people would be sending rape and death threats if I said that male people, due to their socialization in a misogynistic society, are all inherently misogynistic to some degree and need to constantly be checking themselves and doing work to be actively feminist, even if they identify as women.

[swissjeez]

this is my only post that hasn’t gotten a response from a tra lol

[bodenor]

“drag is about parodying gender roles!” mayhaps it’s not the job of men to make fun of the cage they put women into <3

[blasphemale]

“It’s not about mocking women or their bodies!” Then why do they have fake tits and hip padding and why do they make their voices like that

[hugewoman]

“Drag comes from a place of love and respect for women, like their mothers and sisters and favorite celebrities” huh so then do they also openly call their mothers and sisters bitches and whores and sluts and cunts and bimbos?

[eve-was-framed-pt2]

thinking about when Dahlia Sky (former sex trade victim/“porn star”) died by suicide and people were talking about how the solution to this issue should be the porn makers having a counselor on set at all times instead of simply suggesting that such an industry shouldn’t exist at all. leftists once again are all about abolishing systems instead of reforming them until it comes to the ones that make their pp hard

[sangredesirena78463748-deactiva]

my crops have failed, my wife has left me, my skin is breaking out, i am constipated,

“I don’t want kids so having a uterus is pointless” is the worst talking point I’ve ever seen and truly shows me how much we have failed women in the medical realm.

Did you know though that the uterus has important functions besides having babies? Those functions include hormonal, anatomical, skeletal and sexual.

The uterus works with the ovaries and tubes to produce health promoting hormones- which are estrogen and progesterone. This is why hysterectomy can cause impaired ovarian function or complete ovarian failure. Also, these hormones don’t just help the reproductive system but estrogen has been shown to regulate immune response and increases the brains serotonin. The uterus is the most powerful organ in the body. During sex it is responsible for the intensity you feel in an orgasm.

Ovary removal (castration) or impaired ovarian function has been shown to increase risk for heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, hip fracture, impaired memory and cognition, dementia, parkinsonism, mood disorders, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, adverse ocular and skin changes, sleep disorders, more severe hot flushes, sexual dysfunction.

The uterus has anatomical functions. It separates the bladder and bowel and keeps them anchored in their proper places. Hysterectomy displaces these organs causing dysfunction especially down the road.

Hysterectomy also destroys skeletal integrity since the uterus' ligaments are the support structures for the pelvis. Again, the RS is more than just “having babies” it interacts with the rest of your body and organs.

I know this is a “solution” for things like endometriosis but a hysterectomy with or without ovary removal is not a cure for endometriosis (endo) since endo implants / lesions exist throughout the pelvis. Many women still experience chronic pain even after this procedure.

Hysterectomy is one of the top overused surgeries (90+% are unnecessary) and women are not provided with the many negative effects from gynecologists. Women deserve to be informed and have informed consent. Educate yourself so you can be your own advocate and an advocate for others.

[c-ptsd-mia]

This is the post that just, scared the shit out of me tonight.

I had a hysterectomy in 2019. They left my ovaries, but took my cervix without asking, beforehand.

I was NOT told these things. I did not give consent to part of my surgery, and I did NOT give informed consent to ALL of it - because I was not informed!

Don't get a hysterectomy if you can avoid it, please.

There are other options.

I'm nervous as hell for my future and it didn't have to be this way. Those fuckers lied to my face, brushed over the details, and they WILL do it to you too.

Inform yourself. Protect yourself. God knows what they might have done to me while I was under anesthesia too. It makes me so scared and angry, thinking about these things and what I know now - that I was kept in the dark about before.

[johanna-von-orleans]

We have come full circle. How many more years until selling organs/body parts cause "I dont use *that one* for the in 5th grade bio described context" is another woke hustle?

Isn't this thee cyberpunk dystopia or whatever everyone was afraid of 10ish years back? Human bodies being defined as "just parts" and categorized in 1) needed for survival and 2) no harm done in harvesting that organ/body part.

The failed Sex/Medical education and mis/omitted- information of women's bodies paired with capitalism will certainly work on that. We already have a "surrogate/incubator/egg" market. What's next? The uterus trans/implants everyone is talking about?

Only women are misinformed about their body system in such sinister way. A man would never consider chopping his balls off "cause I don't want kids and that's where the sperm is". And no one would tell him that's all balls are for.

[anjomecanico]

"sex work" is oxymoronic because sex is not work and can never be work. Sex is a biological process, it's not a service and consent to it cannot be bought without it being coercion, so therefore not actual consent.
