She is Me, I am Her @rude-radfem - Tumblr Blog

you ever have that feeling when you're just driving home and the sky looks nice and a good song is on the radio and you're singing and you look at the world around you and think yeah maybe life isn't awful, maybe life is worth living. these past few days I've fell back in love with life and people. I love people and the world and life, and it took me so long to realise that you don't have to go through life hating everyone or the world. you can learn to love and forgive and cherish each day. I know it's so hard to stop being so full of hate sometimes, yes I know I get it, but just stop and breathe and think why am I here? The answer is to just enjoy life and make connections with people and try to make the world a bit of a better place.

I love you all .

“hairy legs” like those are female legs that’s how they are that’s how we exist

I never thought I’d lose my home, the place that held everything dear to me. But war took it all away. In the middle of this chaos, my daughter was born—her first breath came with the sound of bombs.I lost everything, but she gives me the strength to keep going. We have nothing now but each other. I’m asking for £5 from 100 kind people to help rebuild our lives. Please, don’t scroll past—your help can give us hope

'Invisible Women' by Caroline Criado Perez is an incredible book that everyone should read, first published 2019, about the way society is built around men in literally every aspect of life

'Pimp State' by Kat Banyard, first published 2016, is an amazing takedown of the six main myths that surround the sex trade

'Firebrand Feminism' by Breanne Fahs, first published 2018, interviews and looks into the lives of prominent Radical feminists Ti-Grace Atkinson, Kathie Sarachild, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz and Dana Densmore, as well as discussing the basics and historic origins of radical feminism as a grass roots movement

'Spinning and Weaving : Radical Feminism for the 21st century' edited by Elizabeth Miller, first published 2021, is an anthology of various essays on topics such as porn, intersectional feminism, lesbian feminism, transgender politics and more (some are better than others, it's 600+ pages so I'm making my way through)

'Trans' by Helen Joyce, published 2021 - not so much radical feminism - moreso gender critical, as Joyce herself claims to be 'fiscally conservative' - and a few takes I don't quiet agree with but overall an excellent comprehensive discussion of the current and historical political climate of trans issues

Why Women Are Blamed For Everything by Dr Jessica Taylor, about the psychology of victim blaming. Grim but straightforward reading. It’s been years since I read it, but also Natasha Walter’s Living Dolls, about the hypersexualisation of young women and return of misogyny as ‘empowerment’. Also Testosterone Rex by Cordelia Fine, about the science of sex differences.
