im back

you can't girlboss your way out of the humiliation of performing femininity. miniskirts are supposed to humble you by having you stay alert of them riding up and exposing you. high heels are supposed to humble you by having you move carefully, worried about twisting an ankle (or stumbling and exposing yourself). make-up is supposed to humble you by having you control your feeding and resting habits, lest you smudge it. there's sexualization imbedded in them. they are SUPPOSED to embarrass you, because the ultimate titillation is the assertion of control over you. you can't desex them.

yes teenage girls can be dramatic and wild but honestly have u ever even seen what happens when u tell a grown man ‘no’

learned today that one of the hosts of a podcast I occasionally listen to was in the epstein files because of an incident wherein she was being sexually harassed/abused by a man who worked in her field -> she created a google doc for other women in said field to anonymously submit the names of men who had harassed/abused them -> one of these men sued for her for defamation even though she didn’t know him & didn’t even know who his victim was -> he couldn’t afford lawyers & reached out to epstein for funding -> epstein gave it to him -> after 5 years she was forced into a settlement & had to pay him over $100k. the way these predatory men find solidarity with each other is so so so profoundly evil

I think you can start a female-centered community even if you are only one woman. Or if it's just you and a friend. This idea that we have to wait until every woman decides to cooperate or until the revolution builds itself, won't work. We FIRST build it ourselves, how we can, with whatever resources we have, then get in contact with each other and discuss how to progress, share our different experiences living in different communities all over the world, and THAT WAY we start building our international network. I think we need to throw away the idea that the conditions and money and time and weather and everything has to be perfectly aligned to work together towards our shared goal.

I think a lot of women like the idea of a whole separatist country (and i get it, me too!), but before that, we have to be happy with just being a small tribe of 2, 3, 4, or 5. We build from the ground up, not the other way around. I also think we (women, or maybe humans in general, not sure, it's a theory) generally work better when divided in smaller groups that center the specific necessities of individuals and cooperate with other groups, instead of trying to have one huge group. More women usually translates (talking from experience) into 3 or 4 out of 15 always dominating conversations, while the rest sometimes doesnt even have time to say half a word. It's complicated coordinating a gigantic group, and listening to everyone at the same time, or dedicating equal amounts of time to each topic of discussion. Men tend to silence voices of minorities and standardize or apply the same general rules to everyone, using "white adult male" as the standard. I don't want our community to replicate that! And it's easier than in seems to fall into those horrible ways, even when you think you are the most feminist woman of them all! I think we have to take into account every difference, and listen to every voice. Yes, in a gigantic group that might be borderline impossible, but that's what the division into smaller units is for.

All "takes" on this blog reflect real policy that will come to pass in the dark era of my rule

zutara is part of what i call the Trifecta of Bullshit, consisting of three very popular heterosexual ships that have no basis in canon and involve a morally gray male character that's heavily desired by the general fanbase and a female character that is easy to project onto and in fanfiction, is unlike their canon self, because it's the idealized fantasy version of the reader. the ships are dramione, reylo, and zutara.

NGL if I see you’re 30+ with theythem pronouns I am basically writing you off, just in general

Like I am just not going to pretend we’re not both women bro. Cannot believe you actually expect me to play pretend with you when we are both grown adult women AT WORK. It is just too goofy I cannot.

people will describe their incredibly nebulous sexuality to you that they’ve never been able to define and the whole time you’re thinking that sounds like bisexuality brother

the year is 2035. the new beauty standard is for women to cut their ears off, as ears are a masculine trait which make the face look too big and hearing isnt necessary as it doesnt align with being demure. evil feminists say perhaps this is unnecessary and ears are natural. women are agressively proclaiming they are cutting their ears off due to sensory issues

I don't want women to "feel empowered", I want them to actually have power

I don’t want women to “feel safe”, I want them to actually be safe

Being a radfem is like being atheist in a theocracy
