When A Man Complains That “women Are Complicated” He Really Means “women Are Nothing Like The Cookie

why would i be wary of strangers based on what they identify as + how would i know theyre cisgender?

take precautions around ALL male strangers.

We used to make fun of people for saying "not all men" it was beautiful

an abused wife of the 1700s who’s birthed 16 children and has not been allowed to leave the house for the last 7 years will write in her diary “i am cursed to be a woman. i wish i were a man, so i could be free, and i wouldn’t always be pregnant, aching, and i could explore, see the world, and learn. why did god forsake me with this body?” and you’ll search her name on tumblr and get “he was such a transmasc legend!! trans people have always existed! proof is right here! he suffered because he wanted to transition so bad 😔 this is why gender transition must be a human right, and deadnaming should be illegal. stupid TERFs, complaining about sex-based oppression. that doesn’t even exist.”

Love seeing women with bare faces, short fingernails, practical shoes, comfortable clothing, a full plate, a toothy grin, a relaxed posture. Love love love seeing women comfortable and happy and unselfconscious.

No gods, no masters and most importantly, no husbands

mood af recently

genuinely devastated thinking about the amount of times I was nice to men in situations where they deserved to be told to fuck off and die 💔

this is what a lot of men want it’s so terrifying

'non binary' people are usually just gnc, or a mix of female and male stereotypes. you think you arent a female or male because you dont like conforming to the stereotypes of your (actual) gender, so yeah, you base your gender on stereotypes.

gender stereotypes contribute nothing to your gender. you cant become a womyn or a man because those things ultimately mean nothing but your sex once you remove what society expects from the labels

^ the assumption by an anti-trans buttface that all identities "are based solely on gender stereotypes"

You're probably assuming I'm binary trans. Like, I went from one gender to the other. Classic radfem thinking.

That's much like saying that socialism is based on capitalism.

There isn't any way we can start socialism without the influence of capitalism when we exist in capitalism. There isn't any way that one can exist than with the influence of the existent reality.

However, based solely? That's just stupid.

Gender is all around us. I can't exist and presume that I have not been influenced by gender. However, by no means is the gender norm definitive of my or others' identity (unless they choose it so).

Binary trans is one way to exist, and non binary is the opposite. to be "based soley on gender stereotypes" would be to assume that all binary trans people are acting like the gender because the stereotype says so, but that's often not the case. Binary trans people are often using gender norms as guidelines because passing and fitting in is part of the desire of being trans - mostly for other people to respect and treat them with dignity, not because they are basing themselves off stereotypes.

seeing people make fun of victoriasway on tiktok is so upsetting. (for context she is a solo traveller and gas some tips posted to orotect yourself while staying in hotels). female solo travellers are VERY vulnerable to men attacking them, even in safe countries, and these men dont even understand what happens to kidnapped women. there is no possible way to be TOO precautionary as a female solo traveller and men will never understand how vulnerable women are in these situations.

men get praised for the bare minimum in EVERY aspect of life while womyn have to overachieve and still dont get recognized

Male: Abusing women is wrong. (1.000 praising comments and 10.000 likes)

Women: Omg king!!!! we need more men like you ❤️ marry me please 😭 you forgot this 👑

Honestly when i see this, i wanna cry.

to eliminate casual sexism, which is very present everywhere in the world. and why would i only be talking about western womyn?

if you look at history on a timeline, womyn only got our rights VERY recently. theres obviously still work to be done, just like with any other oppressed group

I would like to put out here that feminists (me) don’t hate men

We can certainly hate particular men. Just like we could hate particular women. It’s okay to be mad at bad people, whoever they are

The way I see it, feminism is about equal rights, being allowed the same opportunities regardless of gender, and generally just being normal

Maybe we should call it gender-equal-ist

Anyways, I don’t usually post anything too serious on here, it’s just it’s come to my attention that some people think all feminists are like ‘rahhhh we hate all menn’ and don’t realize that these people are a very small minority and/or are probably joking

I can advocate for gender equality without being radical
