once a tumblr girl, forever a tumblr girl
I remember when I started to get radical, I was originally a really hardheaded libfem who started to think for myself, and do research.
I began by asking "why is the world the way it is?" I tried to find patterns in history, starting with my own experiences, to see what went wrong. If you've asked the same thing, this is what my thought process was!
Why does racism exist?
Patriarchy and racism were institutionalised through colonialism. Colonialism was heavily performed by European men.
Why am I poor?
class systems originated from male control over womyn's labour and reproduction. Once that happened, the patriarchal family became the foundation of wealth accumulation, with men passing resources to their male heirs. Leaving no room for workers to gain access to their wealth, especially Womyn who did not even have access to the labour of gaining their own wealth.
Why does religion exist? And why does it negatively impact minorities so much?
The patriarchy uses religion to enforce male authority of womyn, and brain washed us into believing we are serving God when we submit to men. When really we were never serving God, we were serving men.
Why does homophobia exist?
homophobia is a tool of patriarchy used to enforce gender roles and male dominance over womyn. In the patriarchy, womyn must be sexually and romantically available to men. Lesbianism and queerness threaten this system because they allow women to exist outside of male control.
Remember, ladies, everything is always connected. This is also why intersectionality is so important. We have to take a deep look at different people's experiences if we ever want to come close to dismantling the patriarchy.

poor men join the army and murder and rape others
poor women join prostitution and endure rape and murder
even the most vulnerable and oppressed men will never be on the same level of women. they still just destroy everything they touch. which is why, although the axis of class (or any other oppression) is incredibly important, nothing will ever matter to me more than the female class. everything will always be much worse for those born female compared to their male class counterparts. so few prioritise the female, so i shall.
