Andrea Dworkin's classic Beauty Hurts diagram from Woman Hating (1974), updated for modern procedures, fifty years later.

A first step in the process of liberation (women from their oppression, men from the unfreedom of their fetishism) is the radical redefining of the relationship between women and their bodies. The body must be freed, liberated, quite literally: from paint and girdles and all varieties of crap. Women must stop mutilating their bodies and start living in them. Perhaps the notion of beauty which will then organically emerge will be truly democratic and demonstrate a respect for human life in its infinite, and most honorable, variety. —Andrea Dworkin, Woman Hating (1974)

isn't it interesting how even even with a blatant misogynistic hate movement like the manosphere stuff the conversation is never framed around making the world safer for women. it's always 'how do we protect our young men and boys from radicalization'. the idea of like a need for a wider societal adoption of feminism or any kind of reckoning with other misogynistic social structure is just completely out of the picture

Old maids, cat ladies, spinsters, … It’s often scornful, the worst thing that could happen to a woman, but who is driving that image? Who is selling this to you as a negative thing? Because up to the last say fifty years, if you were a woman adamant not to have children, you only path was celibacy. There’s so few women’s voices put forward, but despite what the men would have you think, most of those old maids weren’t unable to get themselves a man; they merely chose not to have children, to live a life chained to domestic labour for an ungrateful man.

Sometimes I feel like aggressively propagating naturalness.

Because what do you mean women go through vaginoplasty? 😭

What do you mean men convinced women that their vaginas can be too ‘big’ and therefore too ugly? The literal organ that helps to bring children into this world.

I want to cry when I think about this.

The desperation that those women must face, to go through such a surgery. All to be ‘normal’, ‘desirable’ to men and not picked on by them.

If I could I would hug them.

A reminder: There is nothing wrong with the body that you are born with, as long as it is not creating an existential threat to you. You are you. You don’t need to enhance yourself, because there is nothing wrong with you in the first place. Your nose is not to big. Your breasts are not too small. Your vagina is not ugly.

Your body is your temple. Please, love it. Accept it.

For yourself. Everyone else can go and get lost.

I work in a drugstore/pharmacy/makeup and skincare store and I have to say, it has absolutely blown my mind the INSANE amount of money women spend on beauty items.

Like hundreds and hundreds of euro on anti aging neck serums and skin plumping juices and tightening creams that are probably TERRIBLE for you.

Smoothing creams, brightening creams, fine line plumpers, night and day cream, serums and retinols and expensive fluffy brushes to apply them "correctly".

Its radicalizing seeing 70 year old women buying anti aging creams and looking for thick foundations to cover "blemishes" instead of LIVING.

13 year old girls asking when is the best time to start an ANTI AGING routine and what retinol will fix their flaws.

The beauty industry is such an insidious industry I cannot stress enough.

SWERF SISTERS! NEVER FORGET the SWERF TEN COMMANDMENTS.

1. Sex is not work.

2. Consent is not a commodity.

3. The female body is not for sale.

4. The difference between a John and a realist is that Johns pre-pay to establish a “contract” for services rendered: a “get out of jail free” payment.

5. Prostitution is a uniquely predatory “job” wherein a practitioner’s value and rates decline as they gain experience.

6. Prostitution is not tolerated in matriarchal societies.

7. Prostitution is the world’s oldest oppression.

8. If consent can be bought, then rape is just a just a fineable offense.

9. Selling sex places a market value on female vulnerability- no goods or services are rendered other than intimate contact with an otherwise unwilling woman.

10. The sex industries profits off of war, femicide, racism, pedophilia, domestic violence, addiction, stalking and torture. The tags “Ukrainian refugee, slave and slavemaster, girl being kidnapped, schoolgirl, rape” and even the names of high-profile female murder victims are found on Porn sites.

hot take time please read (important)

the bop house should not be allowed to have a account on tiktok. the whole premise of their account is to advertise their onlyfans, get young boys addicted, and get little girls to aspire to be like them. i’ve seen so many little girls on tiktok making auditions for the bop house, some being young as 14. it glorifies SW, treating it lik its some fun job and if you start doing onlyfans you can be rich too. they are contributing to the objectification of women, which is even worse considering tiktok is mainly an app for CHILDREN. at least 60-70%(i actually don’t know for sure i pulled that out of my ass) users are under the age of 18. and let’s talk about how they bring literal children IN the house? like when they did the interview with ash trevino and she brought her kids, obviously the kids didn’t witness anyone making content but it’s still. and bringing piper on the house was absolutely disgusting and inexcusable. piper is 17 and was exploited and abused by her mother her whole life. and then back in december she made a tiktok auditioning for the bop house. she obviously looks up to these girls so much and wants to be exactly like them, and they thought it would be a good idea to bring a CHILD into a literal porn house. and also pipers mom already sells CSEM of her, her fans can buy pictures of her, and the higher the prices get on the tiers the less clothes she has on. letting her go to the bop house was unforgivable on both her mothers part, and the bop houses part.

terfs do not interact, this post is not for you. (regular radfems r fine tho)

weirdo: i like watching women be abused

[realist-fortheloveofwomen]

Remember as long as it makes a man’s dick hard it can’t be immoral! Liberal feminism 101

[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.

What’s especially scary about this is that men’s natural, evolutionary response to women crying is decreased sexual arousal.

<p>A chemical signal in women's tears may reduce men's aggression and sexual urges by lowering their testosterone levels</p>

These men are so porn-brained, so conditioned to be turned on by the sight of women in distress, that they’ve completely inverted their in-born arousal pathways.

It's ironic that with the "ai is going to replace artists" convo that no one mentions that we've stopped caring about real artists for a while now as a culture.

With 90% of songs on the chart, we've just accepted that the singer is a brand that comes with a manufactured image, pre written and produced formulaic songs. Some of them can't even sing well without autotune or they use unknown voices. The brands they advertise dictate their "aesthetic" and even their personalities depend on marketability. Doesn't that sound like the kind of thing that's primed for automation....

we've already decided that we don't even need musical artists to have any creative input in what they put out and it's worked for decades.

What about books if I open any online book store right now the best sellers are always repeating the same formulas with a tiny bit of variation. Everyone is just repeating what already sells with a few tweaks. Writers have been trend chasing and pushing out slop as fast as possible to stay relevant for decades now. Visual artists have to make a ton of "content" in order to stay relevant and build a following.

Like I said no one has cared about art being a product for a while now. The word "sellout" disappearing from the cultural lexicon says a lot about the shift in values. Maybe I'm being cynical but I don't think AI songs on the radio and ai books are going to get a ton of backlash. If it entertains people they won't gaf.

The most famous documentary about the flat earth movement is "Behind the Curve" (2018). Three of the major figures in that film are (1) Patricia Steere (host of one of the most popular flat earth podcasts), (2) Jeran Campanella (host of another of the most popular flat earth podcasts), and (3) Robbie Davidson (host of the most popular flat earth conference).

In early 2025, all three of them renounced flat earth theory, in direct response to the observations of the "Final Experiment" Antarctica expedition (which Jeran went on).

[the-dao-of-the-zerg]

The Final Experiment (expedition) - Wikipedia

After traveling from Chile to Union Glacier Camp in West Antarctica, expedition members livestreamed the midnight sun for several days. The participating flat Earthers all admitted that the midnight sun was a real phenomenon.

Very nice to see that minds can actually be changed! I recall a lot of skepticism on whether this would actually work.

Duffy stated of the overall reaction from flat Earthers: "The flat Earth community is imploding. They cannot decide what to believe. They've all come up with their own conspiracies." (...) The larger flat Earth community has largely rejected the results and accused the participants, including the flat Earthers, of having faked the expedition and of being part of a larger conspiracy to promote the spherical Earth model.

Interesting to see that while the larger community isn't convinced, this still seems to have deeply disrupted them because no one can agree on how it was faked
