“We will know that we are free when the pornography no longer exists. As long as it does exist, we must understand that we are the women in it: used by the same power, subject to the same valuation, as the vile whores who beg for more. The boys are betting on our compliance, our ignorance, our fear. We have always refused to face the worst that men have done to us. The boys count on it. The boys are betting that we cannot face the horror of their sexual system and survive. The boys are betting that their depictions of us as whores will beat us down and stop our hearts. The boys are betting that their penises and fists and knives and fucks and rapes will turn us into what they say we are—the compliant women of sex, the voracious cunts of pornography, the masochistic sluts who resist because we really want more. The boys are betting. The boys are wrong.”

idk which self identified queer needs to hear this but you're not radical for supporting kinks at pride and defending kinks in general. the porn industry wants you to support kinks. nightlife clubs and bars want you to support kinks. liberal newspapers, media and politicians want you to support kinks. sex toy and lingerie brands want you to support kinks. misogynists and pedophiles want you to support kinks. "oooh but what about the ppl (men) who get off thinking about raping women / punching women / strangling women / fucking children / fucking my sister / fucking my dog" is this really the kind of radical thinking you will bring to the revolution? get a grip and go volunteer at a shelter. oh my god

when i was a kid i was so mad all the time bc i thought someday i'd have to be somebody's wife i didn't know it was optional. is everybody reminding the young girls in their lives that it's optional.

[stephexmachina]

AND SO IS BEING SOMEBODY'S MOTHER‼️

[stephexmachina]

it is about being a woman. hope that helps!

[vibrantstarfire]

reading comprehension questions for the notes:

is wanting to be a wife and mother a requirement for being a woman?

why might OP be annoyed with replies assuming that this post is about being aroace or transmasc if a woman doesn’t want to be a wife or mother?

are there reasons unrelated to sexuality and romantic interest that might make a woman not want to be a wife or mother?

are there reasons unrelated to gender identity and expression that might make a woman not want to be a wife and mother?

core concept: what is gender essentialism?

is it gender essentialism to imply that all women inherently want to be wives and mothers? could this be what OP is critiquing?

look at the notes OP responds to. is it gender essentialism to imply that being a wife and mother is so affixed to womanhood that to not want to be those things means you’re incapable of sexual/romantic feelings, or not a woman?

what trait are you perpetuating when you assume that women who do not want to be wives and mothers must be aroace or trans? is it gender essentialism?

I am so over people in progressive spaces shitting on women who engage in spiritual practices that include some version of the divine feminine as connected to the female body. Mind your own business and let them do their thing, they are hurting nobody. And they are sure as hell not “reducing women to their reproductive parts”, that is such bullshit.

I don’t personally see my body as sacred, to me it’s just the body I have. But why on Earth should it offend me if someone else thinks their female body IS sacred? Good for them, I say. It must feel hella good.

unrealistic male beauty standards: power, strength, protector, big strong man, superhero, literal god

unrealistic female beauty standards: weak, prey, helpless, porn star, sex object, sex symbol, sex doll, fetish, porn, jerk off material

damn it seems only one sex is held to a standard of outright dehumanization purposefully created by their oppressors who only see them as walking objects to masturbate to. gyns which is one worse im stumped here

I like how physical transition is completely necessary and life saving when trans activists demand easier access to it, but if a government says "ok physical transition is important and you need to go through with some form of it to change your legal gender marker", then it becomes "forced sterilization of trans people" and an irreversible physically dangerous process that an evil government is forcing trans people to go through. Well played.

I found a Lovevery wooden block set for half price and bought it. It’s really good quality. It looks amazing. I fucking hate it. The noise is enough to make me lose my mind. No more damn wooden toys lmao

[quimelle]

talking with regular people in everyday life I have officially lost all hope of any meaningful change. bias against women is too deeply entrenched in people’s minds.

[timelesslysparklingdoom-deactiv]

Women now have to grow out their hair and dress a certain way to be women, apparently. If you’re not overtly feminine you’re “non-binary”.

Trying to force a detrans female back into a box which made her try to transition in the first time is why so many of us no longer support gender ideology, we no longer want to follow these misogyny, backwards views. The more people see this movement for what it is the better.

She is a female whatever she dresses like.

[gender-apostate]

4k likes on a tweet that essentially amounts to "only boys can have short hair" / "girls can't wear pants" in a year that begins with the number 2 is so disturbing to me.

“If a movement declares that a man can define what it means to be a woman based on his feelings, but a woman cannot define being a woman based on her material reality, then it is a movement for the interests of men.”

[cannibal-flowerbomb]

"Transandrophobia exists" is a TERF belief. Make no fucking mistake. Sex based oppression at the core of your ideology? You're a TERF.

It took about 12 years of gradual erosion of feminist language to get to the “saying it out loud” point, but I’m glad we’re here.

[quimelle]

Maybe every fandom is like this if you go deep enough, I don’t know, but the Wolfstar/Marauders fandom appears to me to be the worst possible part of the Harry Potter fandom. These are my favourite characters as well, but man. It’s impossible. So many mind numbingly stupid people simply waiting around for their next routine witch hunt. Just a bunch of hypocritical virtue signalers incapable of making their own minds about things. Truly sad.

[quimelle]

I have since been introduced to the Bridgerton fandom and, while I do not apologize to the Marauders fandom in the slightest, can I just say:

What The Fuck 💀

[voyaging-too]

I'm not against nude dresses, I just want equality. If women show up on the red carpet wearing clingfilm and two sequins, I want men to do the same. I want to see Michael B Jordan's nipples in a mesh top. I want to see Timothy Chalamet's entire ass. I want to see Tom Cruise march out there wearing nothing but a strategically placed satin handkerchief to prove that he's still got it.

Until there's at least five semi-nude men at every red carped event, I suggest female movie stars all wear suits, or if they don't like suits, high-necked long-sleeved ankle-length ballgowns.

Either dress code is good with me as long as it's consistent.

We know that Facebook is brainscorching your parents and tiktok is brainscorching your cousins, but some of you refuse to admit that you got your brain scorched here. However unlike those sites there isn't an algorithm here you just make bad choices.

[theshadowofthephoenix]

I need everyone to understand that a fetish specifically refers to non sexual body parts and objects. It is literally impossible to have a ‘vagina fetish’ and throwing that term at lesbians is wildly homophobic and shows how very little you know about human sexuality.

[carbonemissionshater]

Feminists, for decades: hey these beauty standards for women being thin and childlike seem pretty pedophilic

The general public: ok Tinfoil hat

The general public, upon learning so many of our institutions and media outlets and fashion were controlled by rich pedophiles: 0: this is alarming and novel information

[gendiebrainrotreceipts]

Men and women have different heart attack symptoms op

[vintage-bentley]

So women have just recently managed to convince researchers that we need to be included in tests and trials, because medication works differently for us than it does for men, we have different symptoms, etc. And now we’re supposed to believe that “actually there’s no difference”? It’s almost like gender ideology is meant to hinder and reverse feminist progress…
