quote from @thoughtxxdaughter that I like

LMAO op turned off reblogs but this interaction is so funny to me

turning feminism from a radical social movement with the capacity to create real change into a fun quirky fandom that you can buy merch for at urban outfitters is one of the worst crimes of late stage capitalism/21st century western individualism. the current state of feminism is damning evidence that there’s no way to kill an activist movement more effectively than commodifying it.

Women transition to avoid objectification. Men transition because they objectify women

[detrans-radfem]

Since I've learned that 'gender' can be translated as 'sexist stereotypes' the whole trans thing made even less sense. I wish I'd have realized that as a kid. 'I don't identify with the sexist stereotypes that gets pressured onto me because of my born sex' makes sense but what doesn't is the 'solution' to transition because of that

y’all are so fucking crazy. that boy is a boy with a dick and cock who likes pussy and works on a construction site with all the other boys. nothing different about him from any other straight man except that he pretends to be a woman and feels affirmed and sexually gratified because he thinks he’s fucking a lesbian

[iceyrukia]

[occasionaltmblrforafreehero]

yeah, that's what happen when you wanna pretend men are women

[tommylikeslemons]

Feminism became toothless when we started pretending a woman was just a feeling in someone’s head, actually.

“Pornography is to sex as McDonald’s is to food. Often in America, when you give a talk like this, they accuse you of being anti-sex. Have you heard that term? ‘If you’re against pornography, you’re against sex.’ So let me ask you a question: if I had come here today to talk about the fast food industry, to talk about how it causes obesity, how it destroys the environment, would anyone accuse me of being anti-eating? You would all understand that I was [against] the industry. So why, when I criticize pornography, do I suddenly become anti-sex, as if pornography is sex?”

By the way, the fact that so many men are unable to conceptualise sex without the brutalisation of women is the very reason why I don’t want to have sex with them.

the situation with harry potter is kind of unprecedented in some ways imo because it is maybe the largest media franchise in history to be created & owned by a single person who still has direct creative control over it. who is also a billionaire with significant cultural/political influence. like the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" type excuses shatter on impact when the bigoted author in question is logging onto twitter every day saying explicitly that when you buy the tim hortons ravenclaw donut she is using your donut money to fund the genocide of trans people. like with big franchises usually there's at least a little more diffusion of responsibility than this

[gendiebrainrotreceipts]

Op will unironically say ‘Genocide of trans people’ when what she puts her money towards is literally just women’s rights and protections. Feels disingenuous and inappropriate to fearmonger and misuse a word like genocide and idk feels maybe even heavily misogynistic to frame women’s rights as evil and bigoted hm idk

At a party, some trans girls there, a lot of women cleaning up as it winds down. They're all sitting on their arses. If you want to be performing femininity, servitude is a good place to start. Male socialisation and privilege at its finest. Say you're a woman, but let the cis women do all the work. Nothing changes with your pronouns, stop demonizing us for realising that.

[pseudonaivete]

Yeah, so... Let’s not do that.

Poison him, immediately

This is pretty emblematic of why 4B is taking off.

She thinks she's found an exception and can do something nice for a friend or crush while he's putting her down on a public platform for validation from strange men online.

Women lose the minute they interact.

[sangredesirena78463748-deactiva]

so brave of reddit to delete the gender critical subreddit. i feel so much safer on a website where men can share all the violent p*rnography they want but women can’t talk abt the patriarchal structures that dictate our lives

[antichauvinismsnowwhite]

Reddit hates women.

[applemelodies]

people on here will say “i am a beautiful innocent angel kitten princess baby and i love everyone” and then their blog is full of gore reblogs and they call anyone they don’t like slurs
