I think I have to make a new Blog because this one has been flagged (no idea why and Iâve mailed about it many times đ¤ˇââď¸) and after the new update I donât think anyone can see me anymore??? Please like this if it showed up on your dash
this is why there is no longer lab research on pornography.
âCountless studies have since shown that exposure to pornography desensitizes men to violence against women, often shaping their sexuality in such a way that they become unable to experience arousal without some element of dominance or violence. The evidence has been so damning that, at times, universities have refused to allow further research on the topic. When a study shows detrimental effects that cannot be reversed, ethics boards will often refuse similar studies to go on. This has happened repeatedly with research on the effects of pornography.â

there are still many textile-related things that cannot or at least have not been successfully automated. sewing isn't automated, for example, but you can use machines to make the process faster as long you have a human to operate them. no article of clothing was produced entirely without human hands. all knit items like chunky sweaters had to be manipulated on a knitting machine by somebody. all seams on your garments were sewn by somebody.
then there's the things that don't even have machines at all. crochet (unlike knitting) does not have any machines capable of replicating it so whenever you see something that has been crocheted even if it's a small part of a larger piece that was done with a crochet hook by hand. it's the same with basketry - machines cannot weave baskets. no machines were involved in making any woven basket you see, that was 100% a human being putting the entire thing together so it could be sold for $2 at dollar tree. you ever have a piece of furniture with woven rattan on it, that was also made by a person, no machine involved.
these things all take a very long time, less the more often you do it but they still take a lot of time. how much did you buy it for? how much were they paid for making that? i can't look at anything the same way anymore. i look at my pillow cases and i wonder whose hands made them, where they are right now, if they're okay. how many did they make every day? so many it probably blurs together, they don't even remember making the one i got. how much were they paid for it? i don't know but i know the answer is that it was not enough. idk these things swirl around my head all the time now

A drunken man harassed me at the tram stop when I was waiting for the tram home tonight. I told him repeatedly really loudly to leave me alone to attract attention and it worked, these two kinda scary looking dudes came over from the other side of the street and stepped in between us. They then stayed until the tram arrived and stopped him from entering it so he wouldnât be able to follow me. Iâm so grateful, it just feels so good to know there are also people (men) like this out there. And it was the last tram for the night so the drunk guy wouldâve had trouble getting home after that which just makes it better.
ugh i'm one of these normie bi women but can't help it so hard to find women to date when you come out late and not part of the community
i feel for you but its not like the same sex dating pool is astronomically large and you just didnt get the invite lol
My advice to bi women who are new to dating other women: there is no "dating" as a hobby or state of being. You won't be able to "date around" with other women. It's statistically impossible. You won't be able to say "I'm just dating right now"/"I can't wait to start dating again"/"I just got back into dating".
"Actively dating" in the same-sex side of things means you'll average about 1 new date a year. Make it count.
If you're serious about finding a woman somewhere, you need to prepare yourself for long stretches of being single. A long stretch in straight time is 6 months. A long stretch in gay time is 3 years.
What do you do during those 3 years? You fix your life. You figure out what went wrong in your past relationships. You get comfortable with yourself.
Even if you're not a febfem yourself, I recommend connecting with them. Talk with the febfems, live vicariously through some media outlet or other, and read this.
That obviously depends on where you live. Also you can use dating apps to find other women easier. Itâs absolutely possible to date often if thatâs what you want to do, if you live in a bigger city at least.
I donât care how common it is, it is not NORMAL for every single man to have started watching porn as a teenager and continue to do so for the rest of his life. it is not normal for children to consume porn or have easy access to it. it is not normal for grown men to prefer a screen over real human interactions. itâs not normal to have erectile dysfunction at 25. itâs not normal to have women displayed to you like a product at the click of a button. none of that shit is normal.
âWhen I was 26, I went to Indonesia and the Philippines to do research for my first book, No Logo. I had a simple goal: to meet the workers making the clothes and electronics that my friends and I purchased. And I did. I spent evenings on concrete floors in squalid dorm rooms where teenage girlsâsweet and gigglyâspent their scarce nonworking hours. Eight or even 10 to a room. They told me stories about not being able to leave their machines to pee. About bosses who hit. About not having enough money to buy dried fish to go with their rice.
They knew they were being badly exploitedâthat the garments they were making were being sold for more than they would make in a month. One 17-year-old said to me: âWe make computers, but we donât know how to use them.â
So one thing I found slightly jarring was that some of these same workers wore clothing festooned with knockoff trademarks of the very multinationals that were responsible for these conditions: Disney characters or Nike check marks. At one point, I asked a local labor organizer about this. Wasnât it strangeâa contradiction?
It took a very long time for him to understand the question. When he finally did, he looked at me like I was nuts. You see, for him and his colleagues, individual consumption wasnât considered to be in the realm of politics at all. Power rested not in what you did as one person, but what you did as many people, as one part of a large, organized, and focused movement. For him, this meant organizing workers to go on strike for better conditions, and eventually it meant winning the right to unionize. What you ate for lunch or happened to be wearing was of absolutely no concern whatsoever.
This was striking to me, because it was the mirror opposite of my culture back home in Canada. Where I came from, you expressed your political beliefsâfirstly and very often lastlyâthrough personal lifestyle choices. By loudly proclaiming your vegetarianism. By shopping fair trade and local and boycotting big, evil brands.
These very different understandings of social change came up again and again a couple of years later, once my book came out. I would give talks about the need for international protections for the right to unionize. About the need to change our global trading system so it didnât encourage a race to the bottom. And yet at the end of those talks, the first question from the audience was: âWhat kind of sneakers are OK to buy?â âWhat brands are ethical?â âWhere do you buy your clothes?â âWhat can I do, as an individual, to change the world?â
Fifteen years after I published No Logo, I still find myself facing very similar questions. These days, I give talks about how the same economic model that superpowered multinationals to seek out cheap labor in Indonesia and China also supercharged global greenhouse-gas emissions. And, invariably, the hand goes up: âTell me what I can do as an individual.â Or maybe âas a business owner.â
The hard truth is that the answer to the question âWhat can I, as an individual, do to stop climate change?â is: nothing. You canât do anything. In fact, the very idea that weâas atomized individuals, even lots of atomized individualsâcould play a significant part in stabilizing the planetâs climate system, or changing the global economy, is objectively nuts. We can only meet this tremendous challenge together. As part of a massive and organized global movement.
The irony is that people with relatively little power tend to understand this far better than those with a great deal more power. The workers I met in Indonesia and the Philippines knew all too well that governments and corporations did not value their voice or even their lives as individuals. And because of this, they were driven to act not only together, but to act on a rather large political canvas. To try to change the policies in factories that employ thousands of workers, or in export zones that employ tens of thousands. Or the labor laws in an entire country of millions. Their sense of individual powerlessness pushed them to be politically ambitious, to demand structural changes.
In contrast, here in wealthy countries, we are told how powerful we are as individuals all the time. As consumers. Even individual activists. And the result is that, despite our power and privilege, we often end up acting on canvases that are unnecessarily smallâthe canvas of our own lifestyle, or maybe our neighborhood or town. Meanwhile, we abandon the structural changesâthe policy and legal workâ to others.â

the kitchen is for high drama and the couch is for soft but fraught conversations and emotional closure and the doorway is for comedy
i know that women have rape fantasies, that they fantasize about being hurt and abused, that they seek out sexual partners to hurt them. i know that theyâve consented. iâm tired of being asked to be sympathetic to the women who have fantasies of being victims, arguing that itâs ânot hurting anyone,â because apparently the woman herself does not count as a âsomeone.â i will always have sympathy for those women, but it doesnât make their masochism any less a form of self-harm, and i still wonât support it.
i also know that men have rape fantasies, that they fantasize about hurting and abusing women, that they seek to hurt their sexual partners. and i know why every argument goes, âbut she likes being hurt!â, so that they can put the onus of menâs violence against women on women. itâs because they know that saying instead, âbut he likes hurting women!â, means that they have to defend manâs desire to torture and commit violence against women. itâs because then they canât pretend that the pain and brutality is coincidental, that it comes from a vacuum, that women are doing it to themselves.
in order for women to be abused, there has to be someone abusing her. someone has to agree to abuse her. someone has to want to abuse her. and if you take away âbut she likes it!â youâre left with a sniveling coward of a man struggling to explain why he wants to hurt women without sounding like the monster he is.
for radfems who were/are really feminine and wore makeup, shaved, etc., how did you pull yourself out of that mindset? and what tips would you give someone still pretty attached to those things?
Hi! I canât give tips re makeup bc I never used it, but I shaved almost religiously starting at 14, and only just dropped it this past year.
The only way to completely pull yourself out of that mindset is to stop, but there are motivators that can help you. One of the biggest ones for me was medical, shaving creates micro cuts on your skin and that can be an entry point for bacteria, waxing is extremely irritating and can causes severe burns (happened to my grandma last summer), and having body hair (especially pubic hair) is an important physical defence mechanism your body has. Plus, shaving/waxing usually creates a ton of plastic waste thatâs completely unnecessary (and makeup too). And, this is something youâll have to experience to understand the weight of it, you donât actually realise how much time and money you spend on these things. I was able to buy my partner an iPad for our anniversary by saving up my âhair removal suppliesâ money for a few months.
The pandemic and being indoors all the time definitely helped, and once Iâd gone a few months without shaving, I completely lost the urge to do it. Itâs conditioning, and the first steps are always the hardest, but itâs ultimately so much better for your mental health, for women, for your time, and your wallet.
I hope you find motivators that help you! Good luck!
I used to be super feminine and wore revealing/restricting clothing, wore a lot of makeup etc. and it has been a long process but first of all, I started to wear clothing that was comfortable for me and focusing a lot more on how I felt than how I looked. It helped to do sports more regularly to get a feeling for my body. Stopped wearing heels and clothing that I couldnât bike in or that felt uncomfortable. I was so used to clothing that cut in somewhere or that had to be adjusted or whatever that it took a while to even notice that. Then I cut my hair shorter and finally shaved my head which was soo liberating. At first I felt I had to outweigh it by using a lot more makeup but slowly I began to wear less and less. I still fill in my brows sometime and I still like to put on eyeshadow or lipstick sometimes for a party and honestly Iâm not trying to get rid of it completely, because itâs like, once every month or so and for me thatâs enough. And I feel much more comfortable in my face makeup. But yeah focusing on how you feel is the advice I would give. Makeup is actually really uncomfortable when you donât wear it a lot, youâre probably just so used to it that you donât notice it yet. And being able to splash your face on a hot day should not be a luxury.
itâs sad how zoomers just accept having to pay for everything. netflix, spotify⌠not to be old but when I was a kid we watched cartoons divided into parts on youtube, watched films for free on streaming websites and simply downloaded our music. they just agree to pay, doesnât even piss them off. eh

I hate it whenever a psychological or sociological term goes viral and people overuse and decontextualise it to the extent it has no meaning in six months. like. that term was necessary and now its wrung dry. we no longer have the tools to discuss the phenomenon that term was describing because its lost all credibility. who can take "gaslighting" seriously anymore? this shit is deliberate and borderline malicious.
can i just state that this isn't academic gatekeeping, this is specifically about how academic terms used by victims and marginalised people in and OUT of academia to describe their experiences are appropriated and meme-ified as a way to mock them and then that mockery becomes mainstream and the term loses all meaning
I think the memefying happens as a result of people (mostly online) using it when it is not needed or using it to make their point stronger eg: triggering lost all sort of meaning in English because because everything because triggering! Or violence and weaponise where every little thing is now disagreeing with someone online can be grounds for getting accused of VIOLENCE.
I blame tumblr.
radfems do this..
