the thing is that every time they invent a new thing that everybody has to be able to do to get along in society, that also involves making some people disabled who weren't before, because they can't do the thing. and they never could do the thing, but it didn't used to be a disability.

driving a car. making a phone call. navigating the internet. getting a mortgage. you know? they keep adding new things that everybody has to be able to do or else there's something wrong with you. well maybe there's something wrong with driving a car. maybe it's a hideous activity. did they ever think of that

It's crazy how resistant the left, as a generalisation, is to acknowledging sexism. The richest, whitest, straightest, most able-bodied, most gender-conforming woman is still subject to sexism and I think a lot of leftist men would rather die than admit it.

[minouminouminou]

I think there is a real resentment simmering under the surface, this idea that women have been cynically exploiting claims of sexism and have become too privileged, that exists in a lot of leftist spaces that no one wants to admit to themselves. And I think a lot of women have really internalised that and will jump at the chance to push the bad women under the bus to soothe their own guilt and self-loathing. It's sad in younger women and fucking annoying in older ones.

75% of domestic violence victims are women, and 95% of perpetrators are men (statistics vary depending on region, but they all follow a similar pattern). i wanted to make a piece about this domestic violence statistic and how it IS sexed violence, especially since some men think that pointing out patterns of sexed violence is “discrimination” against them. saw a post a while ago about how there seems to be a lot of movements about making sexed-violence (rape, IPV, prostitution) seem like it equally happens to both sexes when in reality women are more often than not the victims. but i included the first line because i’m not invalidating male victims.

people will describe their incredibly nebulous sexuality to you that they’ve never been able to define and the whole time you’re thinking that sounds like bisexuality brother

[femgirlfriend]

it always amazes me that pro p0rn mindless drones think that women are a fair price to pay for freedom of expression. they didn't even assume we could fight oppressive censorship without it. so lesbians being able to express themselves can only happen if their sexuality is exploited? okay. "conservatives don't see a difference between p0rn and gay people" and neither do you?

sometimes politicians in order to prove a point do experiments like work as a waiter for a day, use a wheelchair to navigate around the city or survive a month on minimal salary. i think every politician who believes sex work is work, who is actively pro sex work and pro porn, who protects pimps and doesn't give a damn about trafficking should do an experiment and become a sex worker at the brothel for a day. they should show people how it's totally normal to be raped multiple times a day, get ptsd, get infections, get cut of more than 40% of their paycheck, not being able to say no to people they don't like and don't want to have sex with, not being able to say no to humiliating sexual practices they don't want to do, not being able to get back to a normal job if anyone finds out about the past, and so much more. let them show how nice sex work is, let men lead the way they so desperately want.

they don't want to be a sex worker? but why not? after all it's no different than working in mcdonalds.
