My heart full of petals

Losses women suffered because of trans ideology and policies:

-equal or equitable political representation

-sex segregated spaces

- women’s sports

-sports scholarships and winnings

-freedom of association

-the right to self definition and self determination

granted i’m not a professional psychiatrist but i can’t think of any other mental illness where the unwell patient makes a statement about reality and that statement is “affirmed.” a patient with a restrictive ED states they need to be severely underweight to be worthy as a person, a patient with OCD states that if they don’t repeat same ritualistic behavior something terrible is going to happen to them, a patient with depression states that the world would be better off without them in it…all of these hypothetical patients are making statements about reality as a result of what their mental illness/disorder is telling them. but no therapist in their right mind would “affirm” any of these beliefs because they’re obviously the result of a mind that is unwell and “affirming” these individuals would just make them sicker by pushing them deeper into their unhealthy line of thinking.

the same cannot be said of gender dysphoria, where a patient states that they were born in the wrong body/they should have been the opposite sex and that belief about reality is then “affirmed” by medical professionals. in not all, but many cases it’s “affirmed” with barely any questioning/pushback at all. there are a lot of things about “gender affirming care” that i find concerning, but i think the most questionable thing of all literally comes down to it’s name.

Especially with the rise of girls being exposed to the internet at increasingly younger ages, we need to try and break the cycle for those girls.

Clocked on the first sentence btw, just saying.

"Japan’s longest-running rape crisis center has been declared ineligible to receive public funding following statements made by the facility’s director which were deemed by government officials to be discriminatory against males who identify as transgender.

she was beaten to death by a “white male” who is still at large — clearly a politically motivated attack

yet, every left-wing person on social media is like: “murder is terrible, but let’s not forget she was a cunt with terrible views”

completely overlooking the fact that a male killed a woman with his bare hands — literally beat her to death, which is an incredibly personal and passionate way to kill someone — and that’s about the most conservative and evil thing any human can do

it’s clear why he killed a right-wing woman, and not a right-wing male

Not my legs, my armpits, my peach fuzz or my pubic hair

Nothing

I have many reasons but they all boil down to “why should I?”

Australia is fucking hot, I’m in a tank top and shorts for the largest majority of the year, in turn my body hair is often on full display.

I have gotten many mixed reactions to my body hair, some disgust, some confusion and some curiosity. Any time somebody asks I open the conversation with “why should I? Give me a good reason and I’ll change my mind” and so far no body has been able to.

“It’s unsanitary” it’s my body natural way of conserving heathy bacteria, a physical barrier of hair between my labia and my underwear is my body’s protection. Pubic hair protects against infection and has promoted my vaginal health (in combination with sleeping naked, wearing %100 cotton underwear and a healthy diet)

“You will smell” it’s true that I have to apply slightly more deodorant on my underarms then someone who is shaven, can you not shill out $10 extra a year and maybe 5 more seconds in your daily routine, it’s certainly less time then shaving every few days.

“It’s ugly” to who? Not to me, not to my wife. Why should I care about what you find attractive or acceptable? Break down step by step why it’s ugly for a woman to let her body do what it naturally does without hacking it off twice a week and pretending that’s how it is naturally.

“It’s just not what woman should do” I run cold due to heath issues, I grow more body hair then the average woman because my body is trying to insulate itself, my body is producing more hair in effort to protect me, even if my body is not always working as it should, I’m glad that it’s trying to do its part, we evolved to have body hair for a reason.

Nobody is ment to be hairless, it’s a known fact that everyone eventually grows hair (in the largest majority of cases) why should I be so concerned with hiding that?

"oh no, Early feminism is *exclusionist*. Many of them were classist" said the man with the hammer and sickle profile picture (who is totally ignoring the removal of Jewish intellectuals, forced deportations, xenophobia and outright racism of the Communist regime)

someone urinated into the ballpit while it was empty and posted it in the tag

this is not a joke
