[rad-feminist]

things you may need to know about me before following:

i'm aged in my early 20s but minors can interact from a distance (posts/asks are fine but no friendships or private messages)

i'm a radfem and gender-critical, so my beliefs generally align with those ideologies. i'm also desisted since i used to identify as trans

i'm white and live in a first-world country, so i try to listen to woc

i'm diagnosed autistic with low support needs (high-functioning) among other forms of neurodivergency and physically disabled

i am gender non-conforming bisexual (febfem) and focus on boosting lesbian voices here. i criticize other bi/het women and call out their lesphobia. the reality of biphobia existing is very nuanced but our oppression doesn't come from homosexuals at all

if a lesbian says something is lesbian-exclusive, it is, no exceptions

i mostly just read & reblog from others, to be honest - meaning original content is super rare (should i tag it as such?)

i won’t post about jkr. just a personal preference for various reasons. those who do are fine.

Lesbians, everything you do to share your experience matters. Even if it's just a little bit. Your song about lesbian experience matters, your poetry about lesbian experience matters, your book about lesbian experience matters, your text about lesbian experience matters, your video about lesbian experience matters, your posts on social medias about lesbian experience matters. Even your little fanfiction with a lesbian main character matters.

In this world, lesbians are silenced. We never hear about our experience, see it talked about or represented. Everything you have to say about what it's like to be a lesbian matters. And it's incredibly meaningful for the young lesbians reading it or listening to it.

So go on, make this post about the crush you have on this girl or this long text about what it felt growing up as a female homosexual. Make this joke about lesbian sex, write this song, make this video. Even if you find it silly or useless. It matters.

while there are many TIMs who appropriate butchfemme language, i've also seen an equal amount of them who are completely vitriolic towards the culture, with a very specific kind of hate directed towards butchness. notice the use of tma (TIMs) and tme (literally everyone else, but specifically in this case women). they very much hate butchfemme because, as a female exclusive culture, it does not cater to them.

wow i wonder why males who are desperately trying to escape their maleness, self identity as lesbians, and equate womanhood with femininity hate butches. i can't possibly think of a single reason

[female-not-feminine]

god damn these men are so lesbophobic and sexist. I think they seethe at the fact that women can be considered masculine and still be seen women and lesbians. They get their views of womanhood and lesbianism entirely from porn so when they see women that dont act like their little porn fantasy they get furious.

[vampirrs]

Most women are aware of how humiliating femininity is. It's why they use it to put men down, because what is worse than being a woman? Pictures of a male in a dress and high heels posted in the comment section of a man being 'sensitive' or 'emotional', saying a man is feminine as an insult, or the 'Oh he wants to be a princess' when he wants to be taken care of.

Have you ever once seen the reverse of this happen? A male editing a woman in masculine clothes to humiliate her? Considering his own hobbies and interests as a sign of weakness? You'll never catch them doing that.

Because only females think that low of themselves. They know how pathetic make-up and mini dresses are, how high heels make you vulnerable and weak. It is just baffling that they continue to perpetuate these thoughts without a care.

If you want to wear make-up atleast fucking own it like males do with their interests and lie to yourself that it is a positive thing.

"If you want to wear make-up atleast fucking own it like males do with their interests and lie to yourself that it is a positive thing." what are you talking about they do this all the time

christianity is not for women. you cannot believe in the bible and be a feminist.

i’m reading the Bible and other mythology because i’m interested in it and the face that this is taken seriously is absurd and sad. but it’s even more sad to see women happily praising a religion that defends our subjugation. take the story of adam and eve and that clearly showcases what men think of women and the patriarchal attitudes in the world. adam is made first by a male god. adam is made from the dust of the earth and male god breathes life into adam, a direct creation of god, a direct creation in his image. then god creates eve… from adam’s rib. an extension of adam rather than her own whole being. now, in some other world, maybe that could be poetic how god takes a piece of him to create her, how they are equal. but this is the real world and it’s obvious that this “equality” the sexes doesn’t hold up in the bible or the patriarchal society this dynamic mimics.

if they were truly equal, how come god didn’t make her in his image as well. he could’ve made her from the dust the same way he made adam. adam is allowed to be his own complete self, eve is made from him for him.

i also interpret this as subtly showing how women are somehow perceived to be farther removed from god compared to men. while everyone is allegedly “born into sin” women’s salvation is harder. she is reduced to being lesser than a man but also somehow has a greater capacity for evil (considering eve is claimed to have eaten the apple and therefore is to blame for the damnation if not only women but ALL of humankind). throughout the bible, women are demonized, called sorceresses and forced to be put to death, they are raped and abused and ignored. it reminds me of in Woman Hating when Dworkin talks about the witches and how christianity demonizes female spiritual practices and portrays that women are “by nature instruments of satan”

some christian women tend to argue that just because women are included in the bible and somewhat respected at times, that suddenly dismisses the overarching fact that women throughout the bible and history are not treated as human beings equal to men.

Only one sex gang rapes, and it’s males.

Never let them gaslight that you about ‘gender wars’ or that ‘women can be as bad as men’.

[defenestrationinchoate]

heads up on the cockslinger situation: @never-tell-me-what-to-do is either cockslinger or associated with them. she's offering to dox cockslinger in DMs and sending people links that are infecting people with porn viruses and destroying all of their data.

[goddessrevolt]

This is patently false. Yall just don’t like her bc she says that OSA and het partnered women can’t be radfems. Shes one of the people actively trying to uncover their identity

[defenestrationinchoate]

actually i don't like that she did this to my girlfriends pc

[rad-feminist]

i don’t keep up but i do happen to follow this person so i’m genuinely asking how we know it was her?

[defenestrationinchoate]

The fact that it happened after she clicked this link ?

[rad-feminist]

thank you, i just blocked 👍

[misandristwoman]

When women speak the truth about men we get silenced, ridiculed, and told we need therapy.

[rad-feminist]

that sub allows TIMs despite the name so the comments aren’t really surprising

[misandristwoman]

Do not befriend men:

This man spells it out clear as day. A woman is a good friend because you might get to fuck her, and if you can’t, she may have hot friends you can fuck. If that’s not a possibility, at least the woman will act as your free therapist and do the emotional labour men won’t do.

All men want to do is use women. They admit it very clearly when you actually listen to them.

How is it still so hard for people to accept that homosexuals are actually homosexual and that we can't just upgrade into the politically correct "hearts not parts" sexuality just because they decided that sex shouldn't matter? It's like they completely forgot why this community even exists.

I get that the majority of them are at best bisexual and can't actually relate to lesbians (and lesbians have always been a minority so it becomes very obvious why they suddenly forgot about us when there's a flood of non lesbians claiming that label and correcting us with their tumblr wisdom on what our community looked like and the history they never actually experienced) even then they just can't deal with us having boundaries and it's so weird.

They pretend to be progressive but act like every other creep who sees lesbians as a challenge because he thinks we're just playing hard to get. It's like they're trying to solve a riddle.

"ok fine you said lesbians aren't attracted to men but what about dick? Is that negotiable? What if I just told you I'm not a man and you pretend my dick is a strap? Can we meet somewhere in the middle? Come on you said no men and I just told you I'm not a man anymore, so where's the problem? What's wrong with you? Why do you hate me? Do you want me to die??"

"Ew are you attracted to genitals? Do you see people as walking genitals you freak?'

"Why is it so important if someone has a dick? What if you meet someone you like, would you reject them when you realize they have this really unimportant body part that you have some weird hangups over? Maybe you should work on that because that's not normal"

"nobody cares about your weird genital fetish, we don't need to know what you do in the bedroom, stop shoving it down our throats and keep it to yourself"

I'm genuinely concerned for young lesbians who will find online communities, read this manipulative homophobic bullshit and believe that there is something wrong with them for having boundaries and not being attracted to the opposite sex.

I'm bi and man i'm sick of how bi people are about this.

it's not just about whether individual lesbians are being pressured by individual trans people (which, they absolutely are, but just ignoring that because people are convinced it can't happen)

societal pressure is one of the strongest guiding forces that can act on a person. if your whole community acts like certain preferences are disgusting, or bigoted, or broken, you will internalize that, even if it's not obvious or intentional (which... it is, but okay). that's still pressuring people, it's just not one person directly forcing another. it's still coersion.

how people will create a hostile environment towards marginalized groups and then act like that exists in a vacuum and does not affect them will always be beyond me

[intolitude]

That's amazing, girl. ❤️

[rad-kiralyno]

i am actually begging for these ragebait youtube debate channels to bring a radical feminist on to talk about the trans issue instead of conservative maga idiots who are so insane that they make everyone else seem like rocket scientists. put a gender critical woman on who actually knows what she's talking about please instead of these christians who salivate at gender roles and want all women barefoot and pregnant

[gctomcat]

If males don't want to be seen as rapists then they need to stop being rapists. Idk why y'all get mad at women for being wary of males instead of the men who are doing the raping and giving males that reputation.

[bootyjuice420]

"the sex that's responsible for 99% of rapes is associated with rape, if you don't belong to the rapist sex that's a privilege!!" ok maybe don't rape

[glitter-soda]

Females do have the “90% of rape victims” body and the “~20% chance of being raped during their lifetime” body. Idk, I think that’s a little worse than some social stigma

[archdvke-of-chvd]

"ok maybe don't rape"

Ok I haven't raped anyone in my entire life so far. And spent the past 4 or so years abstaining from p0rn. What's next?

[evenlesssentimentaltranslator]

Tell other men to stop watching porn

Tell other men to stop defending rapists

Tell other men to stop raping in all its forms

Tell OP to stop whining about being asked to check his privilege

Stop whining about being asked to check your privilege

I’m sure there’s definitely things to critique taylor swift on but people are Not Normal about her in a way that they are not for like…any man. sure she’s a billionaire however there are so many more male billionaires that are actually truly evil but whatever let’s just talk about her songs. her evil music
