saying becoming genderfluid was when you stopped trying to force yourself into conventional womyn standards is odd to be common within 'progressive' communities because those traditional beauty standards arent actually based on any fact. you shouldnt base your womynhood on if you like makeup or dresses or long hair because they are all stereotypes.
i dont believe most womyn actually like being 'feminine'. heels are uncomfortable, makeup is time consuming and difficult, dresses/skirts require you to sit awkwardly in order to not flash people, etc..
saying you arent a womyn because you dont conform to harmful stereotypes is just affirming them in a different way.
being a gnc womyn is powerful. you dont have to not identify as a womyn to not conform to toxic beauty standards.

You simply cannot expect intersex people to constantly center perisex feelings and ignorance in their discussion. Yes, the H slur is an actual slur, even when used to describe intersex and cosexed animals. Yes, intersex people are oppressed. Yes, they're often medically abused, not "given treatment denied to trans people". No, they're not "biologically nonbinary" and yes, they can be any gender just like perisex people. Many "treatments" for intersex variants hinge upon not what is best for the person's body and needs but what will make them appear perisex. To imply any of this is false is intersexist and to try to center your own worldview and feelings in a conversation about someone else's lived experiences is selfish and equally bigoted. If you are not intersex, the discussion is not and cannot be expected to be about your opinions and worldviews.
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

go through r/roastme and look at the womyns posts. the comments are literally just sexualizing them no matter what they look like with a sprinkle of fatherless jokes mixed in.
100% i think if porn advertisements werent a thing porn addiction in teens would be less of a problem. thats how alot of teen boys are introduced to it.
It’s my business when men are forcing their girlfriends into anal sex. It’s my business when women are getting surgeries on their labia and breasts so they can look like model’s in playboy, its my business because young girls are being forced to act out porn scenes with their first boyfriends in case their boyfriends leave them or stop thinking that they’re hot, it’s my business when men are so gorged on porn they think a woman who doesn’t send nude pictures is weird, its my business when men are taking up-skirt photos and groping women, it’s my business when women are being forced to have sex without condoms so that it will feel better ‘for men’, because there are no condoms in porn scenes, its my business when women are lying and faking their orgasms because porn has taught men that sex is about THEIR pleasure, and that sex is just endlessly pumping their dick into a woman over and over again, it’s my business when I can’t look up anything on the internet without coming across advertisements for porn, its my business when I can’t look up any information on my sexual orientation without being overrun by porn even with the safe search on. Its my business, its my business, its my fucking business.Â
"porn is natural! we shouldnt ban it!" but one of the most popular porn concepts, the FIRST one i was exposed to on a 'kid friendly' internet site as a young child was 'step-sis stuck in washing machine'. porn about rape and incest isnt natural and needs to be deleted off the internet
Bro you are a child
you guys do not understand how many anons i get informing me of this
if youre just here to discredit what i say because of my age dont even bother
a book rec for when you are a good number of years older is Gail Dines’ seminal book ‘Pornland’ taking apart the industry. bell hooks Feminist Theory is a classic
you’ve probably already found out about Andrea Dworkin by osmosis by now. I would also heed caution given your age and the topics she covers. You should always put your comfort above exposing yourself to information that may be harmful.
not necessarily feminist lit but the dance of anger by Harriet Lerner is a useful book on women’s anger and how to approach relationships (of all sorts). I found it useful both in a feminist context and in my personal life though.
sending hugs! 💞
thank you! <33
