I still go on reddit sometimes, and someone posted this in the r/trueoffmychest subreddit:

The edit is a response to the absolute amazing replies of some of the redditors there. More and more folks really are peaking. My favourite response:

Shed a tear right there.

Tumblr ‘feminist’: If your feminism isn’t intersectional it is nothing

Radfem: Agreed! So you address the sex based oppression Woc and women in third world countries go through and fight against the stigmatization of the female body that makes girls and women die in menstrual huts for example?

Tumblr ‘feminist’: What?No lmao I meant intersection like intersecting with dick lmao female bodies don’t even exist and cis women hold systemic privilege worldwide go die you gross TERF

[inceloid-deactivated20210822]

people who lump radical feminists in with white supremacists are downplaying the very real domestic terrorist threat white supremacists pose. radical feminists have never driven a car into a crowd of protesters, never car-bombed a building, never shot up a church. you all are just racist

“You can date a transwoman and just not have sex with her/have sex with her and not touch her penis” is honestly not a surprising argument at all when you think about how, for centuries, women’s sexuality has been made more about what we can tolerate than about what we actually enjoy.

[twoxliberation]

it’s wild how the crowd that prides itself on supposedly being “sex positive” is the same crowd that’s now saying “instead of having sex you enjoy with people you actually like, you could just be in a sexless, passionless, meaningless ‘relationship’ with someone you aren’t attracted to, because it’s Morally Good™️ to ‘date’ transwomen and Morally Wrong™️ for a uterus owner to have sex with another uterus owner” lmao

every morning i wake up and make the worst possible time management decisions anyone has ever made

[shinhati]

the problem with "sex worker" replacing "prostitute" is that "sex worker" is an umbrella term which also refers to cam girls, porn actors, strippers, escorts, phone sex operators, and anyone with an only fans. this obscures prostitution as a practice and lets pimps control the conversation around the sex industry. a pimp-run lobbying group can market itself as "run by sex workers and those in the sex industry" and send a cam girl who identifies herself as a "sex worker" to give an interview about how new legislation "harms sex workers" and readers will assume she's a prostituted woman. the prostituted women's voices are never heard at all. of course all of this is intentional

[femclasscirce]

The umbrella term also applies to pimps, brothel owners, pornographers- in essence it groups the exploiters with the exploited and that should set off the biggest fucking alarm bells imaginable

I would love to switch expectations with men. Let ME be expected to be ripped as fuck, eat a shit ton of good food someone else cooked, be romantic with my partners, "protect and provide" (have a good career), be assertive and confident and smart. While YOU can live life on the easy mode you complain so much about. Hm? How about you starve yourself, put carcinogens on your face, squeeze into sheer cold fabrics, cook and clean, and never ever give any hint that you're confident in your abilities or better than me in my field?

[murshroomz-deactivated20230115]

shit like this used to resonate a lot with me, i used to hold so much bitterness towards men… but honestly, the more i grow and actually *live* life rather than exist, the more this kind of angry, spiteful attitude makes me laugh and feel pitiful.

pain, struggle, experience… it’s not a competition. how can you complain about the fact that men cannot empathise with the female experience, then go on to not empathise with the male experience? the hypocrisy is so amusing to watch.

dating and loving a bisexual man who has worked hard to be masculine but not toxic, who’s seen and experienced the brutality of male violence and hasn’t been corrupted by it but instead fights against it has taught me so much about the male experience, and i just cannot get on board with such childish attitudes of ‘but we have it on hard mode!!!’ - life is hard for everyone. the best thing you can do is focus on healing, letting go. live your life. surround yourself with safe and loving people who love you. get out of this echo chamber of toxic rhetoric and enjoy life.

being a girl is so fucking powerful I can blend eyeshadows and wing my liner and curl my hair and make guys guys cry and cum and YOU CANT STOP ME

[babycrawlingveryfast-deactivate]

you all need to stop

[dyketales-deactivated20180601]

Empowerment rhetoric like this is actually so sad. Like…that is exactly what they want you to think. Men want you to think that there is power in femininity, in conforming to gender norms, and there just isn’t.

[starryweever-blog]

I mean, men will literally masturbate into any hole they can find and brag about fucking women with bags over their heads or hate fucking women they don’t like… so I don’t see how making a dude ejaculate would cause you to feel improved self esteem… men will rape animals or masturbate into food or car tailpipes just because… they do not exactly have high standards

[painted--constellations]

OKAY BUT LISTEN. If this kinda shit makes you feel empowered, fucking let it! If winged eyeliner makes you feel like the badass you truely are make those god damn wings so sharp they could slit your enemies jugular. If eyeshadow gives you strength pile on that shiney shit. If sexuality makes you feel tough STRIP MY B. Do what makes you happy regardless of how other people view it. FUCK PATRIARCHY. If someone says what you’re doing is “anti-feminist” because it’s for male attention, who cares!! It makes you happy!! As long as you’re not hurting others or bringing others down WHO. GIVES. A. FUCK. Make those men bust, wing that eyeliner, and blend that mfkin eyeshadow honey!! THERE IS POWER IN FEMININITY. BE WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY.

[gendercriticalbear]

When I suck dick and put on eyeliner and eyeshadow, I get called a faggot. How does this power in femininity thing work exactly?

[dworkin-was-right]

FUCK PATRIARCHY. If someone says what you’re doing is “anti-feminist” because it’s for male attention, who cares!! It makes you happy!! 

You’re giving me a fucking migraine. The argument around makeup isn’t over whether it’s fucking feminist or not, it’s to understand why it’s problematic: women wear makeup b/c they’re insecure, to conform to cultural norms, to fit in and all of these reasons are tied to women’s subordination under the patriarchy. If makeup was just about looking good for yourself, it’d be pointless. Why would anyone do it? That’s ‘cause we don’t fucking do it for ourselves, we do it to communicate shit to the world. Communicate things like our socioeconomic status, belonging to a subculture, performing femininity.  Gnc girls are devalued for not performing femininity, which includes wearing makeup according to the trend du jour. 

“Capitalism and the patriarchy define beauty for cultural consumption, and plaster images of beauty everywhere to stir up envy and desire. The covetousness they inspire serves their twin goals of making money and preserving the status quo.” -Naomi Wolf

”i feel like the narrative on women and makeup has become so muddled and confused and misguided. there is honestly an industry at this point based on denying that makeup has anything to do with patriarchy in any way, shape or form. despite the obvious fact that, no, the vast majority of men do not wear makeup–and yes, we still consider many of them beautiful without it, and without even thinking about it.” -tumblr user sinatrra

”Women may well say makeup empowers them, but the interesting question is what disempowers them about being without their mask?” -Beauty & Misogyny, by Sheila Jeffreys

”But the persistence — or at least the resurgence — of the term [It girl] in the mid-’90s also aligns with the rise of postfeminism, an ideological attitude in which the advances of second-wave feminism are traded in for the rhetoric of “choice”: freedom through self-objectification and consumption of goods, empowerment via the capacity to attract the attention of men, “girl power” in the place of systemic progress against patriarchy.” -The Trouble With “It Girls” by  Anne Helen Petersen

[hellnrage43]

I agree with the posters above - we don’t make choices in a vacuum. If certain things were actually empowering, like wearing makeup or being a prostitute, men would do them. By choosing not to do those things we can show other women that other potentials exist for them.

Not every choice a woman makes is a feminist action or a feminist choice. Understanding why or why not is important.

And also, @terfectly, I can’t decide if I really want to know that story or if I really, really don’t.
