In one month, the Supreme Court:

Denied death row inmates the right to present evidence of their innocence in federal court after their wrongful conviction in state court,

Gutted Miranda rights,

Ended regulations on the open carry of firearms,

Overturned Roe v. Wade,

Allowed public school employees to coerce prayer by students,

Decimated tribal sovereignty, and

Ended federal regulation of greenhouse gases.

Women need to acknowledge their own intelligence more. So often I hear men describe themselves as smart. I can't remember the last time a woman called herself intelligent without adding a little joke after to let you know that she's simply kidding or an exception or a please don't be threatened. No. Be threatened! I'm fucking intelligent and I convey that confidently in my writing!! Even now I wanted to delete and reword that sentence!! Even now someone reading this is cringing at a woman celebrating her wits, is it you? Fuck that! I know my worth and I don't want to downplay it.

radfem: here is a reasonable take

libfem: i agree with every single thing you said but i feel like this post might be secretly saying “murder all trans people.” like idk even though the words you’ve written make complete sense i just feel like there might be secret words you are psychically projecting that are actually full of hate and advocate genocide?? but word for word this is completely accurate.

everyone loves to talk about how harming animals at a young age is a correlation amongst serial killers but nobody wants to talk about how most serial killers are consumers of violent pornography, have hard “kinks” and fetishes, and typically start off abusing and raping women. hatred of women is just as much a link between murderers as animal cruelty, but acknowledging this also means coming to terms with the reality that every single man is one step away from becoming the next ted bundy.

Changing my pad as loudly as possible to assert my femaleness

[dhaaruni]

To speak ill of masculinity—to describe it, in its current societal iteration, as something problematic—is seen as an attack on men themselves. To question why some men behave in certain ways is viewed as an assault on all men and thus unacceptable.

men should not be able to make art work (paintings, movies, poems, novels) about women aging and our relationship to it

most sexual motherfucker in the ocean.

The amount of maleness exhibited. The “old feminist hag” stereotype is a staple of MRA rhetoric. It’s just wearing pink and blue now.

Pretty TERFy to assume the woman has a twat, no? Y’all jump at the chance to use sexed language as soon as it’s to demean us

love TRAs parroting the idea that women are worthless or "shameful" for being single. what's the difference between their ideas and conservatives, other than the fact that they wear wigs and rainbow colours?

when hets are like “i’m pansexual and genderqueer so all my relationships are technically gay xD” like cool im a lesbian so all my relationships are actually gay

something truly horrific about clicking an article about a national or global tragedy only for a pop up to say you only have 3 more free articles this month and then each paragraph of the piece is divided by picture ads for skin creams while a video of a car commercial plays automatically in the corner no matter how far you scroll

think critically about why you choose to wear makeup. think about the root of the issue, think about why you feel it’s beneficial to you to wear makeup on the daily. oh but it’s not for others! i wear makeup for myself!

okay, but why for yourself? do you feel “prettier” with it on? okay now think critically about the root of feeling “pretty.” ultimately it’s for the male gaze. you wear it because it’s “expressive,” what’s so expressive about wearing the same winged eyeliner and bold lipstick? are you painting your face with designs? no, therefore not expressive.

oh but i feel empowered when i wear makeup! okay. think critically now, this is important. tell me, why don’t you feel empowered existing in your natural state? what is it about the makeup that makes you feel empowered? the fact that you’re appeasing the male gaze?

let’s remember, the ceos of majority makeup companies are men. think critically... why are men telling us to buy makeup? because they want us to feel so insecure about ourselves and to spend countless money and time into learning a “skill” and promoting it to other women.

ladies! let’s get rid of the daily habit of wearing makeup. you don’t need eyeliner or mascara to feel empowered or pretty. existing in your natural state is more empowering than anything. a woman saying no to the mass marketing companies telling her she’s not good enough without makeup, is empowerment.

I remember reading 1984 and asking my teacher about the woman hating undertones and she was surprised because... nobody had ever asked that? The main character wanted to rape a woman and bash her head with a brick the moment he orgasmed and nobody was ever like “aw geez that sounds like misogyny”

Women are raised to learn about historical figures who were “great men” who raped, beat, and at minimum held women as subservient.

Women are raised to learn about “incredible artists” who cheated, beat, or belittled women around them.

Women are raised to learn about “brilliant philosophers” who spoke of womens inferiority, referenced us as breeding stock, or altogether counted us out as animals.

Women are raised to learn about “genius minds” who stole from, degraded, or rose at the expense of women of their time.

Women are raised to learn about “influential authors” who wrote down about women, were pedophilic to girls, or abused their wives.

Women are taught to sacrifice, forgive, scar - because why would you dare keep a man from his greatness?
