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.
I feel a bit iffy about young kids in radblr spaces, so I just wanted to come in and say I hope you stay safe. Radfems get a bunch of death and rape threats. Apart from that, there are a lot of very grotesque topics we discuss that can be triggering for a sensitive audience.
I also recommend turning off anons. People feel way more comfortable being unapologetically hateful when they don't have to directly link their profile.
💯 turning off anons now! probably shouldve a while ago
Hiii just wanted to say I’m so happy to see other teenage girls with radfem ideologies!!! I’m 16 and yall fr give me hope for our generation of girls 😌🫶
helloo! i honestly think the amount of teen radfems is growing, ive been seeing alot more of us lately :)
You're very well spoken for your age (not to be creepy I'm a girl). Don't let dumbass moids on the site get to you
tysm :)
Hiya! Fellow teenage radfem (tho about to become an adult so take that as you will)!
Don't let others discredit you because of your age! However, don't feel pressured to have the same ideas forever. Keep questioning things, keep thinking critically, and if you change your mind then don't beat yourself up obmver "having been young" or whatnot. Doing all of these things is what led me to becoming a radfem and gender critical and I now feel that I have a lot less cognitive dissonance lol
Also, please remember to take breaks from radblr, since it can be a lot especially for all of us on the younger side.
Wish you all the best!
thankyouu
Just notice, how every female-exclusive space soon turn the rules to "non-binaries, transgenders, dogs, parrots, everyone is welcome" while male spaces, stay for males only. We women should STOP sacrificing our space, we should stop being afraid of speaking up, we should stop reducing our body, we should stop being our last priority, all for the sake of not hurting men's feelings. This is not inclusion, it's misogyny with a mask, hidden behind the name of representation.
Sometimes I wonder what the world would be like if there was no patriarchy, no gender roles, no men.
I imagine I'd be more secure in myself. I would be less afraid to allow my body to exist as it naturally is. I could jump into a lake shirtless and never feel the real or imagined lingering eyes on my back. There would be no "man-peering-through-the-keyhole" psychological phenomenon women experience - the urge to always be palatable to the male gaze. I could feel completely comfortable cutting all my hair off in the summer so I could comfortably tend to my garden without sweat dripping from my hair. There would be no "does this hairstyle fit my face" bullshit that men interestingly never subject themselves to. I would walk home alone at night in the city and I wouldn't feel the urge to check behind me every minute. I could stretch my arms high in the air without the urge to immediately put them back down lest others see that I am human enough to grow body hair - to be human as a woman in this world is to be a beast - I could lay on the warm sands of a beach without the urge to cover my legs with a towel for the same reason. I wouldn't ever feel anxiety when making connections with other women because I would know with confidence they won't sell me out for a corn chip of validation from the patriarchy, because there wouldn't be one. Other women wouldn't look down on me for existing against the grain. And there wouldn't be the other kind of human to beat, rape or kill me for the same. Other women wouldn't be pushing their daughters, themselves, or me to conform to the identity of "decorative object to be oggled" because there would never have been anyone to start the demand.
I could rip my clothes off and grow my claws, my fangs. I could become the beast I'm meant to be. I could run to a hilltop with my sisters under a full moon and dance around a fire while we howl "This is freedom! This is freedom! This is freedom!" We could laugh heartily, loudly. We could feast decadently on all the delicious things we deny ourselves. We could take up all of the space we desire. We could love - truly love - one another and the Earth. Life would flourish.
I am deeply saddened that will never be the world.
as a woman, my agoraphobia and fear of being alone at night/in public is 100% related to my gender. as women, we are vulnerable to men, even in safe countries and areas. dangerous men dont look for other men, they look for women.
Oh wonderful! radblr officially has the support of the American mafia now!
love to see it
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.
