Angry Lesbian

Campaigning to improve laws against rape and court proceedings for rape trials? "Stop infringing on rapists' rights, you cop-loving Karen!"

Rape crisis centres? "If they don't let males use them, or run them in some cases, we'll nail a dead rat to the door and lobby to cut their funding."

Boycotting media by known rapists? "Boycotts are only for creators who are doing REAL damage, like a woman defending single-sex spaces at a legal and political level!"

Abolishing commercial rape? "Sex-negative Karen SWERF!"

my csa doesn’t define me, what my abusers made me do doesn’t define me, and what i did to survive doesn’t define me

Fuuccckkkkkkkk thissssss

Anyway if voices suddenly appear in your head, it could be caused by a schizoaffective disorder, by a mold infestation, by medication, by a BRAIN TUMOR, and without any other information, it may be this thing called "thinking"

it’s truly remarkable when you put it this way. but it also begs the question: what is there, if anything, that could prevent this?

feminism has been around for decades, yet educating men has never worked.

the best thing a woman can do is be educated, have her own career and financial independence. and never partner with a male.

me saying “women are oppressed on basis of sex, not gender identity, and we cannot identify out of that oppression” does not mean I think it’s okay to kill or hurt trans people. it does not mean that I agree with right-wingers when they say gender non-conformity is destroying civilization. It does not mean that I am going to vote for politicians who think all gay people/gender non-conforming people are groomers.

it literally just means you cannot change your biological sex (which was never a controversial statement, even among trans people, up until like 5 years ago) and females should have special protections and spaces since we are constantly being preyed upon by males who see us as subhuman sex objects. that doesn’t mean I think all trans people are predators, it means that enough males are predatory toward women that we deserve to have spaces away from them (especially spaces where we’ll be not fully clothed).

"A Gold Coast pole dancing studio has become the latest front in the battle for women’s rights to ­single-sex spaces, with an applicant who identifies as a transgender woman suing the owner for $30,000 in damages after being refused membership.

The case has parallels with the Tickle v Giggle case in which the Federal Court found Sall Grover, the founder of the female-only Giggle app, discriminated against transgender woman Roxanne Tickle, as well as with the Lesbian Action Group’s case against Australian Human Rights Commission, which refused to grant a Sex Discrimination Act exemption to allow the group to hold a “lesbians born female only” event.

Nomes Witney, owner of Helensvale and Coomera-based business Queens of Pole says she was holidaying with her family in February when the complainant attended a free trial class, run by another staff member at the studio, which advertises prominently on its website that it provides a “female-only environment”.

It is the first time since Ms Witney established her business nine years ago that she has had a transgender person attend a class or attempt to gain membership, with Queens the only pole dance studio in the area offering classes exclusively for women, and others nearby advertising themselves as open to “all genders”.
