who can never be sure

"FGM is happening to females!"

You are a female so did it happen to you? No, it is actually banned in your country and you share zero of the violence those girls who actually suffered.

Did you actually get socialized like that? No, you were never forced to cover your head. Your family supported your education.

like fucking stop pretending it's a PRIVILEGE that a handful of women in the west aren't treated like absolute dogs in their day-to-day lives, or that at least some of their very basic human rights are respected to an extent. stop fucking pretending that we don't have anything in common with mistreated women. and stop fucking pretending that you even know what's actually happening in our lives.

if an individual woman has not experienced female genital mutilation in her life, she still knows it happens to other women and girls solely because of their sex. it is a mere COINCIDENCE that it's not her. and as long as such practices exist somewhere else, she is not free. she is more than entitled to talk about it, to scream about it as long as she thinks is necessary.

Glanced at American news and Republicans are trying to pass a bill to track pregnancies and would allow the gov to track pregnancies beginning to end so they gov can say if a foetal death is suspicious or not.

I am not uptight about privacy because I'm hiding something. I'm uptight about it because the people who dismiss my right to privacy are dangerous to you and me and our families, personally, all the time.
