existential female despair

actually i’m putting this on main blog too people will legitimately be like “omg i’m SOOO glad they made the lesbian character in [tv show] the pretty one instead of some ugly disgusting hairy butch dyke! this is destroying the negative stereotype that all lesbians are ugly disgusting monsters 🤩 #woke #feminism #lesbian #pretty” and think they deserve to live

“Girls w boyfriends aren’t your enemies” I mean I wish that was true but too many women let their bfs take them over like the symbiote So

Shut the FUCK up oh my god

I’m so sick of this “man hater” femme fatale aesthetic going around because they literally just play into what men want and act like it’s suddenly subversive and feminist because “oh I know they want this and I’m gonna use it” yeah they never use it to their advantage and always just end up serving men’s interests.

Childbearing is glorified in part because women die from it - Andrea Dworkin

men are allowed to like the thing itself, while women can only like the aesthetics and the lifestyle and the shallowest parts of the thing. and this is super good and feminist and empowering and never actually think critically about any of this that’s too hard it’s literally not that deep!

if you are a man and you call women bitches you need to be shot :) yes even if its just a joke :) yes even if youre gay :)

I keep on seeing this one post floating around talking about how becoming a radfem made them miserable and I wanna be nice but... take the L ladies. Life's so much better when I can put a name to misogyny. Or cutting ties with porn supporting male friends. I'm more will I need to call out things that make me uncomfortable, I'm actually excersising(mostly because the prospect of endometriosis has put the fear of god into me), I'm generally more extroverted... I'd need a control group to prove my theory but being able to call out misogyny just makes everything in life better. The only thing I've lost from being outspokenely a radical feminist is one or two male friends and like... is that even a great lost? Feeling worse just seems like a skill issue here.

in the increasingly conservative-leaning global sociopolitical climate that we live in it's important to remember that "subversive" does not automatically equal "good" or even "better" lest ye become what i like to call a Temporarily Embarrassed Contrarian

more women with short spiky hair plz

Women who depict our oppression as inevitable, natural, and DESIRABLE characterize this depiction as acceptance. They act like it’s a clear-eyed recognition of reality, that they are acquiescing to ancient forces beyond our control. 100% it’s a form of avoidance. Avoiding the brutality of acceptance. It simply makes no sense that accepting that men are stronger than us and have massive webs of power to control us and that they are vicious and sadistic, often, in interpersonal relationships and on a mass scale towards women alike. Would culminate in some freeing passive bliss. It’s just a way for women to cope. They want to pretend like what is happening is okay. Like if you’re abusing substances, it’s easy to lie to yourself that you do so because you recognize how things are and accept who you are. What differentiates addicts in recovery vs active addiction is whether they’re coping by pretending the cruelty of their circumstances gives them access to some unique bliss, or whether they accept they’ve been coping with punitive circumstances via self harm.
