Shot in the dark, but maybe it’s because no one cares?

[revolianmind]

“If you can’t be feminine what else do you have to offer” lmao ladies I told you that not conforming to gender stereotypes or expectations literally pushes all the creeps, misogynists and hypocrites away

[mindful-doomscroller]

I've just discovered of "Revolians" and now I understand the dislike for cishet gnc people.

The problem isn't that there are cishet people who are gnc. The problem is that they are being homophobic af about it.

Like, I don't care how you dress, but please be respectful of the fact that gender non-conformity has been something strictly linked to homosexuality and bisexuality for ages and that, if you're mistook for a lesbian or a gay man or even a trans person, being homophobic/transphobic as a response isn't exactly progressive.

I do understand that you're annoyed about this, but don't think that straight passing LGBT people are any less annoyed by the continuous assumptions about their sexualities and gender.

So if you don't like being hit on by a lesbian for your short haircut, remember that out there femme lesbians exist and that they are being hit on by men and whilst you can oppress a lesbian with your lesbophobia and by outing her to a homophobic environment, lesbians who have to deal with entitled men have to face misogyny and lesbophobia and really can't defend themselves.

IF YOU'RE A CISHET YOU CAN'T BE OPPRESSED BY LGBT PEOPLE.

[violets-are-red-roses-are-blue]

Revolians have always brought up the fact that gender conforming gay people exist and that people assume that they are straight because of that. All that we are saying is don’t assume somebody’s sexuality by the way they look, which does include gay people being gender conforming. I don’t see where the homophobia is, it is literally don’t be so close minded to assume people’s sexual orientation by their conformity or nonconformity to gender stereotypes

[xherpowerx]

Lmao revolians: uh yeah I’m not gay I’m just gender nonconforming

You: homophobia!! What’s wrong with being gay??

This is how y’all look 🤡🤡

[mindful-doomscroller]

You know what's wrong with all of this?

The way you all look disgusted when someone assumes you're gay.

And the fact that you're calling me a clown for "what's wrong with being gay?" is very telling.

If only I could act like that when cishet men hit on me because they think I'm straight... :)

[xherpowerx]

Why are you so disgusted when someone assumes you’re straight tho??

Or maybe it’s just that you don’t want people to think you’re something you’re not because you feel like it invalidates your identity or sexuality or experiences? Hmm?

I’m calling you a clown because you think that straight people should not correct people when they’ve wrongfully assumed their sexuality, because that makes them “homophobic” and like they have something against gay people.

And what is up with these generalizations? Most revolians I know on the internet spend a lot of time around their gay friends, even though many people could assume they’re gay for that, but you know what? They just don’t care. Because in real life, it isn’t as black and white as you make it on the internet.

And you can act however you want around straight cis men, in fact, if a guy ever assumes that you’re straight, I encourage you to tell him just how wrong he is. That being said, I also believe that if someone wrongfully assumes that someone is gay, that someone should correct them because there is no point in misleading people :)

[annabadea]

Some tumblr user which I’m not going to name because I genuinely feel sorry for her, recently stained the name of Revolianism by calling us terfs, and then she said we have a “pride flag”, even though that is impossible because we are not LGBT in any way shape or form and don’t want to intrude either, we just have a flag to show positivity for us, which she decided to hate on, and on top of that, she said that only girls are revolians 😂 (just so you have an idea about how informed she really is). Thoughts and prayers 😔🙏🏻

P.S if you can’t see her post it’s because she blocked pretty much anyone who ever posted in “revolian” or “revolianism” hashtags because she didn’t want us to be able to defend ourselves. A real brave legend.

[xherpowerx]

She blocked me too 😍 I’d like to dedicate this award to everyone who ever supported me and I promise there is more to come! Thank you! 🥰

Men’s standards in women: I’ll only date a girl with nice shapes who shaves all her body hair but NOT the hair on her head, no, that one better be long, and who wears some degree of makeup, has big plump lips and a small nose and dresses with nice feminine clothing and wears lingerie.

Women’s standards in men: I’d be really nice if he respected me and wasn’t a serial killer

[durkin62]

Women's standard in men: has to over six foot, have a beard, good job, pay for all my shit, give up any hobbies I don't like, handsome face, own a house, new car, college degree.

Men's standard in women: don't be obese.

And I don't give a shit about how you personally don't see that, they've done the studies.

[obliviousfloral]

Both of these are bullshit and this is why both of you are virgins.

Still getting laid, enough to get married. Cry mad Bout it diesel cunt.

[xherpowerx]

The fact that something like this manages to get laid PROVES that not only women don’t expect men to be handsome, but they also don’t demand that their personalities are decent!!

It’s worse than I thought! Someone study this case too please, give OP more sources 😭

[wierdwierdos]

okcupid posted a statistic of women and men rating each other and women just rates men low most of the time, while men have a balanced outlook on women

[violets-are-red-roses-are-blue]

If men spent hundreds of dollars on doing their (long hair) at hair salons, spent a lot of money on makeup and shaving products and clothes, then they would be rated just like women are. But I assure that when a woman looks the way an average man looks, she is called ugly and lazy. That’s because a woman being perceived as masculine somehow makes her be perceived as unattractive and guys don’t like that, so she would be rated low too

[wierdwierdos]

You have absolutely no idea how straight men thinks, so you have no right to speak on their behalf. Men and women have spoken; women rate men low generally, while men have a healthy standards towards women.

[violets-are-red-roses-are-blue]

As I said, it would be insane if women rated men who did nothing to look special like men rated women who spend so much money and time to look good. That being said, just because on dating sites (which do focus only on appearance, at least at first) women rated men lower (which logically speaking, makes sense if those men didn’t do anything to look good), that doesn’t mean that in real life women care so much about looks. There have been studies made to prove that women care about personality more than men do.

This link talks about studies made about men’s more visual nature. It’s not just me noticing it, others have too and even studied it

[wierdwierdos]

It bothered me why you keep bringing up how men look compared to women, then I realized you’re implying that women are vain. Not only women care more about looks, because dating sites focuses on appearance and they rate men low for their looks, women also need to be pampered more than men. Got it.

[violets-are-red-roses-are-blue]

How on earth would men be rated high for their looks if they don’t put in any effort? You call women vain for demanding a man puts in at least as much effort as them in the way they look? But anyway if your theory was real, there wouldn’t be so many average man-beautiful women couples. But there are. The reverse never really happens. But by all means, when you spot a long haired dude who wears makeup and shaves all his body hair and has no facial hair, dating a short haired, hairy girl who wears no makeup tell me. Until then, you will keep seeing the opposite version everyday and those types of women I described will still be considered ugly by dudes

[wierdwierdos]

Men do put effort in their looks. Women are just more vain. Majority of couples are usually naturally hot men and average women. You just think women are beautiful because of make-up. Even an egg can look like a “hot” woman with it, but you can’t make an egg to look like an attractive man. Make-up and plastic surgery is popular among women because the majority of women are ugly. That’s why the make-up and fashion industry is booming and women buy their product. Women and gay men see women as who they are, while straight men are born with a part of their brain bigger, because that’s how much grey matter it takes to like women.

[violets-are-red-roses-are-blue]

Again, I don’t like tall guys, I don’t like beards, I’m not a gold digger and I don’t care about what men own.

They’ve also done studies to claim that men prefer long hair on women so what’s your point? You probably feel so angry cause you feel targeted, otherwise if you knew this wasn’t true you wouldn’t even bother. But you’re so pressed about it, it’s actually funny. You can’t force me to believe what you want me to believe, cause my lived experience will always be stronger than a random angry dude on tumblr

[durkin62]

Did you not read the last sentence? I literally said I do not care about what you personally say you're into. We have the stats. 

The entire fucking point is that you’re a liar. You pretend its only your sex has a set of standards to adhere to. Its objectively a lie, you just only care when its about you. 

[violets-are-red-roses-are-blue]

What “stats” are you talking about? You’ve provided nothing so far. You’re a liar who bases his inexistent argument on some “stats” he pulled out of nowhere.

And I don’t give a f*ck about your imaginary stats either because you’re talking to ME now and if I said I don’t like that, you can’t come at me with the “women like that” bulls*it since you don’t like it when I do it to men either. Hypocrite.

You provided absolutely fuck all to back up anything you said, yet wanna bitch when people do the same thing to you. Everything you said is objectively a lie. And I never even said I don’t like it when people do it to men, I’m not some stuck up cunt who thinks everybody has to drop all their standards just because I don’t like it. I have explicitly stated several times the issue is you only see one side of the picture. When it comes to standards applied to women, you think you get to generalize the entire male population. But when it comes to men, you suddenly think its only what you prefer that matters. Because you’re a lying hypocrite who gets off on their victim complex.

I’m so saving these articles, gurl you literally crushed him

[revolianposts]

It’s so “fascinating” to me how some macho men tell us that we look like men in attempt to insult us. It’s like...they are aware of how unattractive they themselves are, and try to project that onto women who don’t conform to traditional femininity.

Don’t like us? Stay away and shut up, but don’t imply we’re unattractive and “no man would ever want to date us” just because you’re attracted to hyper feminized versions of women and we don’t give you that.

[xherpowerx]

They try to tell us no man will find us attractive but they know, they literally know they look bad and try to project it onto us because we have short hair and wear flannels...?

Like I’m still beautiful but what happen to you honey? 😭 something went wrong

[revolian]

Teddy girls started gaining attention in the 1950s, having their style characterized as “rebellious”, they broke all the dress codes which were much stricter in their days. This is revolian culture.

They had no problem having short hair, even though that was seen as even more outrageous back then. Absolute legends.

Teddy girls are the early revolian girls. Guys we literally have a historical ancestry!!!

[revolianmind]

Cis heterosexual women can:

Wear binders

Be muscular

Shop from men’s department

Have very short hair

Wear men’s accessories

Not shave

Stop telling straight girls they have to fit into this ideal femininity mold. Respect the existence of revolians.

[radmenace]

every now and then my boyfriend will wear a skirt and sometimes makeup for a party or something and because of this my 16 year old sister asked me if he identified as nonbinary. how are we supposed to get past gender stereotypes if every time someone doesnt conform to them they have to renounce their sex? let men wear skirts and women wear suits and whatever the fuck else without saying they arent men and women like how do these people not see how regressive and sexist this kind of thinking is :(

[apparentlytransphobictransguy-d]

Hey! Feminists.

Stop forcefully femininity young boys. Demonizing their masculinity, shit of that sort.

My friend, let’s say Emily, has an older sister. Her older sister has a son, gave birth to a boy. However, since birth she’s been calling him a girl, making him grow his hair out, and forcing him into dresses. The child is five now, and even though he wants to play with ‘boys toys’ and dress in male clothing, his mother still insists he’s a girl. The boys in his class taught him that girls and boys have different privates, and that he is biologically a boy. And the kid wants to be a boy!

Forcefully feminizing boys is not okay. Let them be themselves. Sure, teach them right from wrong but don’t outright tell them they can’t do things boys typically do. Let them rough house, within reason, things like that.

Feminine boys are a thing and deserve respect as well but damn. This is getting ridiculous. Some boys DONT cry because they don’t feel the need to. Some boys DONT wear makeup, some DONT want to play with dolls, sole DONT want to wear pink, and that is okay!!’

[xherpowerx]

It’s wild you spend so much time writing a post about how men shouldn’t be forced into femininity but NEVER once mention how women are always forced into femininity since they’re young. Little girls everywhere are forced into dresses from the beginning, parents make them grow their hair out, make them play with dolls, experience with “mommy’s makeup” etc.

I’m not saying this woman calling her son a girl is okay in any way, shape or form- it’s all sorts of wrong, but your perpetuation of gender stereotypes is not exactly okay either . Saying that a boy growing his hair out is comparable to a girl is insane. If I ever have a son you can bet I’m gonna let him grow his hair out, because I can’t stand the thought of butchering my male child’s hair just so he can fit in with the stereotypical view of masculinity. That doesn’t mean I want him to be a girl though.

And I never thought I’d live the day when someone says “some boys don’t wear makeup/wear pink/cry and that’s okay” like... the problem is that people can’t accept boys wearing pink/makeup/crying etc. Our society literally believes that boys MUSTN’T have to wear makeup and pink and cry like...?

[accurate-rant]

We live in a society where it is seen as more normal for a man to transition to being a woman and claim he’s a lesbian afterwards, than for him to be a gender nonconforming heterosexual man. It’s as if the ladder is something impossible and never heard of.

That’s what our society is like. Progress is made for everyone, except straight people who have been stuck in the same gender stereotypes chains since 7000 B.C and everyone is reluctant to even speak up about this.

[revolian]

Hello, here’s your daily friendly reminder that:

Women don’t have to look good for men

Looks (hair length, clothes, makeup or the lack of makeup) don’t indicate somebody’s sexuality; revolians exist.

Sexual objectification of both men and women in the media affects people’s self esteem and mental health

Liking “masculine” women is not the same thing as liking men, and liking “feminine” men is not the same thing as liking women.

You don’t have to force yourself to be someone you’re not just because you would fit in better with the rest.

Current gender stereotypes and gender roles are at the basis of the inequality between men and women, and have been so since they were established.

Biology and social constructs are two separate things.

[xherpowerx]

I hate to see these sorts of posts. The “glow up” kind of posts where they glorify women transforming themselves in some plastic looking dolls to show that “there is hope” for every (natural) looking woman. This isn’t okay. This should not be accepted- you’re implying that natural women (who don’t wax, dye their hair and wear makeup and contact lenses) are ugly.

Women are forced to live up to this impossible and absurd standards EVERY SINGLE DAY of their lives yet MEN are allowed to exist with unshaved faces, short hair, no makeup or dyed hair or contact lenses at all.

This just goes to show how sexist our society still is- women who don’t perform these social constructs are called out and told that they need to perfect themselves in order to cater to the average guy’s desires. And before you tell me “it’s her choice”- look at the picture from before she was younger- before she got socialized to look a certain way- she seemed happy enough- that until she learns what you need to do to fit in and look “beautiful”.
