womyn will always get the benefit of the doubt from me tbh
we women need to start defending each other the way men defend rapists
was literally JUST thinking about this!
I've noticed the past year or so a lot of people seem to have magically forgotten how to spell and pronounce the singular "woman" vs. the plural "women." Many now both write and pronounce the plural form the singular way.
Example: "I saw many woman today at the supermarket."
Anyone else noticing this trend, and, if so, any explanation?
It seems vaguely disrespectful and a bit sinister. I can't really put my finger on why, but perhaps because it seems sudden and intentional. I've never seen "man" and "men" get mixed up.
Also, I'm not talking about spelling errors, typos, or how people whose first language is not English use these words.
full offense but men earned their so-called loneliness epidemic.
call me a misandrist. i don't care. i used to give the libfem ''patriarchy hurts men too'' spiel and how that somehow excuses them for their social ineptitude. but i'm done. men absolutely brought this onto themselves. every conversation about it is just men soiling their pants over the unfairness over it all and not-so subtly implying that it's yet another issue for women to fix. because hell forbid men get a grip on the concept of self-critique and personal growth without women's emotional labour to guide them.
a factor in men's loneliness is their refusal to actually form meaningful connections with anyone, including each other. wail ''nobody cares about men'' until you're blue in the face, but truthfully, men don't even care about men.
a man will dismiss women's friendships with each other as petty, fake and silly but in the same breath he'll admit that he doesn't even know his bros. not their favourite colours, political views or worst fears. not even their surnames or birthdays. men even seem to take pride in this, like it's some quirky and hilarious male trait that women couldn't possibly understand.
if there's no meaningful discussion, no confiding and comforting and if you don't even know each other, you don't have a friendship, you have an acquaintance. and a circle of acquaintances around you is never going to fill your emotional cup.
so men, if you're lonely, make friends with each other. compliment each other. or don't, remain lonely for all i care. just leave women out of the mess you created and refuse to clean up.
Saw a post a bit ago that was like "Is it just me or is like every intersex blogger really angry all the time, who pissed in your cereal bro?"
Wow I fucking wonder why we're pissed off. Really. No idea. I wonder if it has to do with having to deal with
Being systematically mutilated legally
If you weren't mutilated, almost nobody has a body like yours
You can't research how your sex organs & hormones function without seeing baby surgery gore and reports of how everybody like you was "fixed"
Having the US president declare us nonexistent
Being told we're freaks all our life and we need fixing
Have a long history of being killed at birth
Slurs for you literally fucking everywhere including in a scientific context and if you point it out people call you dramatic
More slurs for you if you ever dare to try to look at adult material
Any and all fiction that is listed as intersex is all stereotypes and obvious fetish material for perisex people - There is almost no representation.
Whenever you hear about people like you they're referred to as having a sex disorder, never being intersex
People who support the entire framework of your excising and mutilation go in your comments to concern troll about how they don't actually support that
Having almost no research done into our oppression — so there is a lack of statistics about systemic intersex assault/rape/murder — people use this to tell you it isn't happening (despite nearly every intersex person you've met has reported being victimized in some way)
Strangers online think they are entitled to your full medical history
A significant number of people online think you are a porn trope and are shocked to find out tou exist in real life
Your gender identity is erased and ignored because it doesn't make sense to perisex people
You are reduced to a discourse topic
Being considered "rare" (because we are actively being suppressed with violence) — people use that "rarity" to say you don't matter
People thinking its acceptable to sexually harass you and ask you about your genitals just because they find out you're intersex
Getting told that you're exaggerating when you say your group has been the victim of a successful extermination campaign — & that is why we are so invisible
Everyone ignores all of this ^ and tells you that someone else has it worse than you so you should shut up if you ever decide to speak up.
Wow. I wonder.
this is actually insane to say lmfao men get the benefit of the doubt like 100% of the time
If you're going to give a woman the benefit of the doubt for something you'd condemn a guy for, then you need to reflect on why that is
Ayy fellow radfem Sopranos-enjoyer! :D Randomly stumbled across your blog and just wanted to say DAMN I wish I'd been as awesome and aware of the world as you are when I was 13! I was deeeeep in the libfem brainwashing till my late 20s. It's incredibly encouraging to see girls in your generation saying 'fuck that shit!' The world NEEDS young womyn like you! 🤍
thank youu :) 💗 definitely went through a bit of a libfem phase too LOL
also same for anything saying u have to be polite to scary or creepy men or else you're putting yourself in danger. WRONG. men like that see a 'polite' woman as an easy target. being rude to or ignoring a guy you think might be dangerous tells him u aren't going along with it and he will 99% of the time give up. in contrast giving in to a small request or being 'nice' makes it much harder for u to leave the situation or say no later, google the foot in the door phenomenon
Just wanted to say the fact that you’re learning about radical feminism at your age is incredible. There will be many things in life that make it seem like giving in to adhering to the patriarchy or dating men is safer or easier, but you know reality. Stay fast in your belief and try to share it with other girls around you, it will help and it’s important. Most of all do what you love, especially at your age it’s easy to get bogged down by these harrowing statistics and headlines. Take time away from social media to just be.

..men have oppressed us for centuries? that doesnt imply men arent currently oppressing womyn
Trying to explain male socialisation to my mums boyfriend and he hits me with the ‘you shouldn’t generalise a group of people’
