#peak libfem

[a-room-of-my-own]

Since you like to collect (and lambast) 'fake wokedness', enjoy this submission I stumbled upon: Xena Workwear

Women's fashion boots, with steel toes. So you'd think it'd be for engineers and architects, or warehouse clerks who just need to run into a construction or manufacturing area. And that sounds like a great market.

But they're trying to sell these as actual work boots, and published one of the worst white papers I've ever read: "Self-Imposed Safety Policies Can Lead to Gender Discrimination"

"Companies with a self-imposed heel height policy of 1” are allowing their employees to wear traditional-looking safety footwear, including popular models that have a heel well over 1.”

Meanwhile, the same companies are singling out their female employees who want to wear more fashionable safety footwear, invoking the exact same heel height policy."

I can't get over this.

In what universe wearing heels in a construction site is considered safe?

I mean you could also talk about yellow helmets not being pretty enough and how they should be replaced by fashionable little hats.

Hey ladies, what’s your best “peak libfem” story?

Mine is when I was presenting about violence against pregnant women and I mentioned that women under 25 were more likely to be absued because they had less life experience and then I was told that was ageist. Lol.

To the attention seekers and "red pill babes" who think it's edgy to be an "ex feminist"

Why are you on Youtube and not in the kitchen? 😉

Lets just jump into it. Why are these women with blue hair (feminism's free expression for women "allowed" that btw) and careers (another thing feminism literally maintains and can be taken away by a government at any moment) think it's edgy to suddenly identify as anti or ex feminist when they're really JUST conservative? Is it for quick likes? A lot of them actually live out and espouse feminism's basic tenets by living the way they desire to live.

You do not have to identify as a feminist (an activist or official advancing womens rights) to appreciate what true feminism has granted us all. Even men. What's the problem? It's like being anti religion because you hate Islamic laws but benefit from the amazing advancements in morality and lawmaking in our Constitution thanks to Christianity. You don't have to believe in or follow one aspect to benefit from the rest.

You can disagree with liberal pseudo left "feminism" without denouncing the basic idea of advancing or maintaining women's rights.

In fact, in western culture, feminism IS conservative. Feminism is why we are not like Iraq, India or the Congo. Please think about that before using the anti or ex feminist label to seduce angsty men on the internet looking for a gamer dream Clementine Kaczynski. You're doing yourself and others a disservice. By smearing true feminism, you make it look good to continue the FGM, child rape and overall sex-based debauchery that will be funneled into the western world from 3rd world nightmares.

When I first heard "TERF" years ago, I understood it to mean radical feminists (who I didn't know anything about, but thought were unnecessarily extreme) who were bigoted and pointlessly hateful towards innocent people just trying to live their lives.

More recently, after realising I'd now be considered a terf, I thought, well, the meaning has changed, it's meaningless now, it could mean anything and anyone.

But... while the term is being thrown around by people who don't seem to realise what the letters even stand for, and it is being used in ways it maybe wasn't before (eg. any actual lesbian is automatically a terf), I'm not sure the intended meaning has really changed all that much.

Wasn't "TERF" always supposed to bring to mind the most hateful (female) creature you could imagine; someone who delights in casting others out and causing pain for no reason at all? And wasn't the reality behind that description always women daring to stand up for and protect themselves and other women from male intrusion and violence?

When you are so, so close to getting the point

Exceedingly rich, white men (and women) who invest in biomedical companies are funding myriad transgender organizations whose agenda will make them gobs of money.

The massive medical and technological infrastructure expansion for a tiny (but growing) fraction of the population with gender dysphoria, along with the money being funneled to this project by those heavily invested in the medical and technology industries, seems to make sense only in the context of expanding markets for changing the human body. Trans activists are already clamoring for a change from “gender dysphoria” to “gender incongruence” in the next revision to the international register of mental diagnosis codes, the ICD-11. The push is on for insurance-paid hormones and surgeries for anyone who believes his or her body is in any way “incongruent” with his or her “gender identity.”

long story but I got reminded of my peak libfem story today lol. basically I realised "woman" couldn't mean "adult human female" in those circles so I asked (on anon, thx past me) a loud pro-trans ~queer I had been following for a while what the definition of "woman" actually was & she called me a terf, went on a rant, and blocked me. I thought, hey, if logic is a terfs' thing, I should maybe check out what they're saying. and here I am now, a raging man-hating hairy lesbian radfem.

Ah yes, the transformation into the lesbian everyone warned you about... This miracle of life... Damn I loooove being a raging man-hating hairy lesbian radfem. 

lol thanks for sharing your peak libfem with us, I feel like this is a very common experience: once you call them out on their “alternative facts” and frankly, alternative reality, they turn real angry real fast, and it’s a great way to realize how irrational and mindless their ideologies are.

I’m glad we both got out, sister!
