can we please stop conflating body parts with masculinity and feminity please?? this is the fucking transgender website and you people still think penis = masc and tits = fem. remember that nonbinary people exist for five fucking seconds and that body parts are just fucking body parts that arent inherently "masc" or "fem".

[old-spirited-invert]

Masculinity and feminity are social constructs that change with every different culture and shift and evolve with time.

Ones genitals/body parts have little or nothing to do with ideas of masculinity, feminity, or androgyny.

[vibebeast]

the toys and clothes you preferred as a child say nothing about your gender btw bc fucking clothes and toys dont dictate what your fucking gender is.

[deandraxon]

Crazy how y’all think you can remove the trans part from transgender and act like trans men have all the same rights as cis men.

Crazier how you think that acknowledging that a trans man isn’t cis is somehow transphobic.

Y’all are blatantly trying to “I don’t see color” trans people, while also pretending that it’s not inherently bad to hate someone solely because of their gender and/or sex.

And then you wonder why trans men are speaking out about how you’re actively ignoring our problems because “men bad lol”.

It’s fucking disgusting. Gender essentialism is shit, transphobia is shit, TERFs are shit, and people who don’t believe in transmisandry are shit.

[old-spirited-invert]

My thoughts on misandry aside (of which I have many) transmen do not nor have they had the same privileges as cisgender men.

The experiences of a transman are not the same as a cisman. Most of them spend some period of their life as a girl and as a woman.

Being transgender is an identity that requires acknowledging as well as the oppression and challenges that come with it.

Look, I'm anti-war, but also maybe...we should be actually trying to stop a genocide? No hate to Jewish people but Isreal is a facist state.

Can you explain how your beliefs relate to radical feminism and what aspects of it you identify with?

I specifically identify with the aspects of Radical feminism when it comes to the oppression of women both for their sex/gender and things such as race/ethnicity, disabilities, class, appearance, sexuality etc.

I also believe that the patriarchal society and government we and others live in/under needs a RADICAL overhaul. (I'm extreme about my politics)

Here are my beliefs (current):

I'm anti-marriage, anti-institutionalised/organised religion, anti-zionist, anti-capitalist, anti-police system (needs major reform) anti-classist, anti-monarchy, anti-patriarchy, anti-most men, anti-military, anti-death penalty, anti-war, anti-circumcision, anti-porn institution, anti-nonessential surgeries on intersex babies/kids without consent.

I'm also pro-choice, pro-bodily autonomy, pro-reform, pro-sex education, pro-divorce, pro-sex positivity, pro-normalisation of menstruation/periods, pro-women, pro-body neutrality/positivity, pro-contraception, pro-free medical care, pro-mental health care, pro-therapy, pro-lgbtq, pro-decriminalisation of drugs and sex work (so victims can seek the help they need)

Ngl I'm kinda an anarchist and extreme in my beliefs.

I hope this helps! :)

how can u be a feminist but still hate women so much? Like you’re just a regular misogynist

Truthfully when I was younger (teen) I nearly fell down a conservative/right-wing rabbit hole of internalised Misogyny, as have many women and AFAB people. (I blame the rise of "anti-woke culture" on YouTube and social media around 2016)

It took some time for me to accept my approach towards feminism was flawed and wrong (I never intentionally hated women or was a misogynist)

I thought that focusing on criticising women and pointing out that they can be bad people too would help but in reality it was just minimising issues that Women and AFAB people face as a Gender/sex.

We all make mistakes, some of us need to grow up (literally in my case) and realise what we did and how we went about our politics was harmful.

[old-spirited-invert]

U dont get to call urself a radfem if u still care more about the feelings of men in dresses then safety of women. Disgusting.

Well, I think transphobia isn't very Rad of you. Transgender people have existed looong before you since Ancient times and in non-western cultures.

Also transgender individuals are more likely to be abused than to abuse (there's still bad apples mind you)

Btw Transphobia also hurts ciswomen, remember that Olympic boxer (Imane Khelif) that was falsely accused of being transgender by JKR and others?

Remember all the hatred and harassment she received and still receives? Simply because she didn't happen to make the narrow Western view of what a "woman" is?

Imane Khelif isn't the only ciswoman who have suffered under transphobia and trans-misogyny, if you gave a shit about women you wouldn't share the same beliefs peddled by sexist and racist right-wing men and the patriarchy.

[old-spirited-invert]

Disgusting, racist bitch. Kill yourself. You swallow dicks every day, don't you? 🤢🤮

??? Literally none of my posts involved race??? (There was one post that people starting arguing about someone being racist I have no clue what happened.)

[vouam]

Honestly when I hear people say “not receiving gender affirming surgeries will make me feel suicidal” I hear the same thing as if someone said “if I don’t get a nose job I’ll feel suicidal”

It’s a physical insecurity that wouldn’t exist in a vacuum. I’m sorry that you were influenced to feel this way, but surgery will not fix something that is rooted in self-hatred. If you change it with surgery, you will find another insecurity to fixate on within a week.

Also, can we talk about how rebranding gender affirming surgery as some life-saving procedure is just promoting and glamorising a very misogynistic and corrupt industry.

[old-spirited-invert]

Ma'am kindly stop talking about things that you have zero knowledge about, especially if it pertains to mental health. You're somehow belittling both Gender Dysphoria and body Dysmorphia in this post when they are very much not the same.

[old-spirited-invert]

Terfs/Gender "criticals" will harass a masculine looking cis-woman for being "a man in women's clothes" and not realise how insulting women based on their appearance is literally misogynistic.

[t0chterdesm0ndes]

are these terfs with us in the room rn?

[cuntyterf]

Yeah, you

[t0chterdesm0ndes]

U dont even know how I look like or what my views are

[cuntyterf]

Yet you still attack people. What's it like being a racist bitch?

[t0chterdesm0ndes]

Why are u talking about urself? I thought this convi is about me

[cuntyterf]

Wow she's racist and an idiot!

[mithliya]

you literally called a woman of colour stinky + said she doesnt know what a bath nor school is because she's indian. the only racist in here is you.

[old-spirited-invert]

Ayo, WTF happened here

[kittycomrad]

I'm so tired of people crying "false accusations" when a man is declared innocent by the court. Everyone knows the "justice" system is flawed but want to act dumb when they want to harass and discredit the victims. There are non existent cases of women actually lying about rap3 but the government is keen on protecting and "proving innocence" of m*n. Doesn't matter if the evidence was insufficient, if the woman got minor details (dates, clothes, etc) wrong because recounting traumatic experiences in front of rap*sts/m*n is hard... THEY. JUST. WANT. TO. BELIEVE. MEN.

[old-spirited-invert]

The justice system, in general, is flawed and heavily biased, especially in regards to sensitive and traumatising topics such as rape/SA. It is truly sick how victimised women are treated.

[old-spirited-invert]

Weirdos that argue the definition of "pedophile" for the sake of correct term usage are more often than not, nonces.

I don't care if being attracted to a 12 year old is technically not pedophilia. You're still a nonce!

[old-spirited-invert]

So tired of conservatives claiming that women or, more specifically, mothers always stayed home to raise the children and never worked.

Bros should pick up a history book from time to time.

Victim blaming in the Princess diaries movie (2001):

I'm making this post because where else am I going to rant about a movie from 2001 that no one cares about? Or more specifically one scene.

The scene in which the main character Mia is unconsentually kissed by a boy infront of press which is infact sexual assault.

But what is the worst is the scene that follows, when Mia, a 15 year old minor, is changing her clothes in a tent and the other girls intentionally knock over the tent.

And worse yet, the press take photos and later publish them in a newspaper, Mia is thankfully covering her nakedness with a sheet (it is a kids' movie, after all!) However it does not change the fact that the press were taking photos of a minor changing in a vulnerable position and could've possiblely taken CP.

When the photos of both incidents are published in the newspaper, does her grandmother, a Queen, understand that her granddaughter was violated and comfort her? Or press charges against the press/paparazzi? No!

Her grandmother shames Mia, stating how disappointed she was and all in all l, victim blame her own granddaughter.

All of this is indicative of a larger problem in society that everyone is completely aware of, the victim blaming of victims, slut shaming, media's exploitation of public figures (primarily afab, women and minors) as well as the sexualisation of minors by adults and media.

[old-spirited-invert]

My thoughts on porn really depends on what type of porn.

When it comes to legality, if it's illegal (includes minors/animals/parties that can't/don't consent etc) then naturall, I'm fully against it filmed or not.

In terms of fictional porn (drawn/written/animated), I don't care as long as it's properly labelled/tagged for what it is.

If its real people then it varies depending on how it's made, is it industry or homemade? Both have their negatives and positives.

Anyway, support sex workers because they deserve it.
