It is easy to know the beauty of inhuman things, sea, / storm and mountain; it is their soul and their meaning. / Humanity has its lesser beauty, impure and painful; we / have to harden our hearts to bear it.
Robinson Jeffers, from “The World’s Wonders,” Selected Poems (Vintage, 1965)

u ever think about how youd have like 30-40% less trauma if you werent a woman
That’s a generous estimate.
A woman in her natural state of body (that is with no make-up, without shaving, etc) is not masculine.
this. a woman existing as a woman will always be womanly, because all one “needs to do” to be a woman is to be a woman, to be female.

When I was 15, I cut myself really badly. My self harm had been escalating for awhile and I guess it hit a breaking point. I ended up needing 10 staples put in my leg to close the wound.
The whole time the doctor was working, I wasn’t worried about the fact she was putting in staples with no anesthetic. I wasn’t worried about my own mental health that had led me to that point.
I was worried because I hadn’t shaved my legs in two days and it was embarrassing to have stubble.
Performing femininity is a prison.
Paradise, Mt Rainier NP by Jeromy Carman
it gives me endless satisfaction knowing that no matter how much synthetic hormones a man pumps into his body and no matter how many expensive cosmetic surgeries he gets and no matter how perfect his contour and his hair are, he will still always look like less of a woman than me sitting here in my pajamas with hairy legs and no makeup on
So you justify women hood as being feminine.
that’s literally the opposite of what i said

goodnight everyone
““Pregnant woman” is not an identity. It is a social reality. A pregnant woman’s ever-contracting rights – whether she can choose to end this pregnancy, whether she will risk imprisonment for drinking too much, whether she will lose her job, whether she will be murdered by her partner – can only be seen through the filter of her inferior social status: that of woman. She neither chooses nor identifies with this status and it matters that the restrictions it places on her and others be fully acknowledged. Hundreds of women died today because of the way in which pregnancy intersects with their political and social status as women. The term “pregnant people” denies them the specificity of their deaths and masks the cause. What gender-neutral pregnancy campaigning has achieved is wholly negative, making it impossible to articulate why there exists a class of people who are not granted full sovereignty over what lies beneath their own skin. It has located the abortion debate (which should not be a debate at all) back where conservatives want it: on the status of the foetus, not that of the gravida. It has allowed the misogynist left to consolidate their definition of woman as “passive fantasy girl with tits” as opposed to “person with independent physical functions, emotions and needs.” Above all, it has created the illusion of an opt-out to being placed in the inferior sex class. Well, there isn’t, at least not until you can be bothered to challenge the fundamental idea that half the human race is inferior (oh, but that’s so much harder than messing about with words!).”
— 800 maternal deaths a day is not gender neutral (via mehreenkasana)
watching it crumble // might have eased the hurt // feeling it disappear // only made it worse
You cannot heal in the same environment you were broken by.
I've noticed a huge change in your way of thinking over more than the past year when it comes to feminism, gender and all that kind of stuff. Its a a way of thinking that os entorely new to me. Where can I find material of the sort?

"Non binary bullshit" is my favorite.

When we try to tell trans women what growing up girl really means to us, they don’t respond with anything that looks remotely like empathy. They don’t listen to our experiences, they take stupid sitcom tropes about what girls do in the bathroom and at night with each other and fetishize them. I don’t know what growing up as a black girl is like and I would never try to take that narrative away from black women and rewrite it for my own validation. So yeah, that’s why we get angry when trans women do this to us.
