many of you would be less uptight and pretentious if you smoked weed literally once

WHEN THE MODERN FRAMEWORK OF GENDER, SEX, AND SEXUALITY WAS LITERALLY BORN OUT OF 19TH CENTURY RACE SCIENCE YOU CANNOT DISCUSS FEMINISM OF ANY KIND WITHOUT HAVING TO FIRST DISCUSS THE RACIALIZATION OF GENDER ASSIGNMENT/PERCEPTION

like i cannot stress enough that when "man" and "woman" got codified "scientifically" in the 1800s as intrinsically seperate categories within western society THEY EXPLICITLY STATED BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE WERE TOO PRIMITIVE TO DEVELOP THIS DISTINCTION. WE WERE QUITE LITERALLY SEEN AS A THIRD UNDIFFERENTIATED CATEGORY BELOW (WHITE) MEN AND WOMEN.

Like you CANNOT divorce gender as a construct from race as it was literally born out of the social construct of race. Black/Brown Trans Woman and White Trans Woman are, for all intents and purposes, discrete gender identities historically speaking. And the worst part is that this way that both Black/Brown women of ANY gender have had to fight to be recognized as people - much less women - should be a point of solidarity between white trans women and black/brown women. but every time we try to have this discussion it turns into a fucking flamewar bc of white fragility

South American Feminist Maria Lugones discusses this in The Coloniality of Gender.

Just out of sheer curiosity, why isn't this discussion about all trans genders? Masc and NB people are also hurt by this system, are they not? Like why are we singling out twomen?/genq

because not everything has to be about everyone. sometimes we can talk about just women. sometimes even just trans women. maybe even possibly we can sometimes talk about specifically trans women of color and our experiences. "what about masc (being used as a blatant stand-in for men) and nb people" lets stop making feminism about everyone but women for a second ok? can we actually focus on womens issues for once? thanks.

Except this shit doesn’t just affect women. Black and Brown men were included in this systemic denial of gender and personhood.

u can tell the 4chan migration on here was successful / we lost the culture war bc anytime i even touch a post regarding autism i automatically get recommended more post about it and the post will literally have phrases like “total neurotypical death” with 20k notes and a bunch of high functioning white autistic ppl rbing it happily and giggling and whatever not even caring that “tnd” is a racist dog whistle no not even a dog whistle just straight up a racist chant but if u ask them to stop using it they go “so now we cant even complain about neurotypical?????” as if thats whats being criticized instead of the fact that yall r extremely open to fascism as long as its fun

to clarify any variation of “total ____ death” is just a rebranding of the nazi slogan “total nigger death” like. ur just using a nazi slogan, u cannot swap out black people in that phrase and think its okay to use now, especially if ur still using a word that starts with the letter n like im kinda sick of yall being so okay with hating black people

can we bring back the term "fair-weather friend" bc I feel like if fair-weather friends got called that more this whole argument about whether or not you should be there for your friends when it's inconvenient/at what point of personal inconvenience it's ok to bail on your friends would kinda fall apart bc like. we literally have a word for "friend who's only there when you don't need something from them" because the baseline expectation is that a friend should be there even when it sucks. like we used to make fun of people for bailing on their friends.

I don’t have anything to offer at this point other than despair. I have to be honest about that. I’m not trying to be a downer. You’re welcome to go elsewhere. These problems are going to eat me alive.

im tired of the "sexy men in videogames is fanservice and equality" bullshit NO ITS NOT ITS LITERALLY JUST MISOGYNISTIC DOUBLE STANDARDS STILL YOU IDIOTS. ITS MEN BEING CELEBRATED FOR BEING BIG TOUGH MASCULINE MEN. ITS GLORIFICATION OF THE MASCULINE IDEAL. ITS NOT OBJECTIFYING THEM OR REDUCING THEIR PERSONHOOD. YKNOW, THE MAIN FEMINIST CRITIQUE OF SEXIST CHARACTER DESIGN FOR WOMEN??? y'all are hopeless.

maybe i like my tech a little bit inconvenient

maybe i like pulling out my debit card instead of using apple pay. maybe i like untangling my wired headphones. maybe i like typing something into the search bar instead of using siri or whatever. maybe i like curating my own social media feeds over an algorithm. i just don’t think everything has to be perfectly streamlined and efficient i like it when things feel tethered to the real world.

my aura too cunt My blog too suicidal my fit too mid My bitch hate me
