GenderCrit has got to be the most bland, boring and banal school of political thought I have ever seen. It literally requires no advanced research or skeptical thinking. That's why they attract thousands of followers because anyone and everyone can get on board with "the obvious". It requires no deep introspection, just going along with lifetimes of heterosexual preaching. It's just repetition of the heterosexual mantra and acceptance of their split-model of humanity. Imagine being this upset at other people's lessons and/or failures. Imagine ignoring the root of the rot and misdirecting your rage to this degree. Broken females and males are on their way out, so their followers can seethe and cope.
Sometimes I forget that the most complex question most people care about is personal moral conduct and usually it’s just outrage that anyone could think that their arbitrarily chosen moral foundation (usually a religion) isn’t the most obviously true answer. And of course without a religion you have no solid moral foundation which is supposed to be the biggest problem ever because personal morality somehow matters so much. So you once again get a reason for people to be interpersonal moralists as a substitution for politics, the same way that they do that with dating arguments
So tired of seeing feminists claim maIe identified women just need to "learn". You put any woman in a position where they have to face maIeness in its rawest form without other women to take the heat away from them and they'll spit out takes (or actions even) like what's in radical feminist texts. Not in a "omg I've just found this out" way but more like something they've held in them all along. As women harm other women they're fully aware of their actions as they do it. These women aren't unaware they just dont care (until it hits home for them).
I sometimes feel betrayed, concerned, in disbelief, and even disgusted with women's willful participation in patriarchy, but I am working on that. A day will come when I no longer care about any of it. From that moment on, it won't even register to me anymore. I will have accepted I was never truly owed sisterhood, nor is there a point in building it when you realise that the majority of women are deviants themselves, trapped in heated heterosexual foreplay.
Sisterhood comes across as a euphemism for labour from childfree women who are either in homosexual relationships or are celibate while the majority of women offer nothing to help those women's broken backs. They're more likely to drop a drawer of knives on their backs, really. It's not something I want to be a part of. Even among women, sisterhood is to sacrifice yourself for women who cater to males or have failed catering to males but learned nothing from it.
One day when I happen to see their struggle amongst themselves in endless cycles of empty words, cute slogans, and briefly trending hashtags while they continue loving men, regardless of how many times they prove unsalvageable, I'll not feel emotional about it at all anymore. And I will be a happier woman for it.
hate that "love women more than you hate men" is only ever used as to mean "stop dividing the movement by pointing out my privilege!!"
Yeah, cause even in radical feminism now, women don't examine their internalized misogyny.
It's all about deflecting blame for their decisions onto biology, and getting with men while at the same time expecting to be able to take down patriarchy.
If only we could shake them into understanding that being with men upholds the patriarchy and women will never be free the longer they keep it going.
They accuse us of dividing the movement, but what movement? Feminism is a joke when they pander to the patriarchy so blatantly and shamelessly.
being in a relationship with a man requires cognitive dissonance. When you’re a radfem in a relationship with a man, reblogging rape and dv statistics it’s so much more extreme than it is for the average woman.
The older I get the more I can clearly see that pretty much most of the mothers in the west caused all their own problems themselves. If you weren't trafficked into marriage or sexual slavery as a destitute citizen of some undeveloped or even a developing country, then you have no excuse to be making the choice - and it is a choice, no one forced you do it - to partner with a man and have his children who then ends up treating you and your children like shit. I am not saying that I don't sympathise with these women, but I am saying that they are intellectually inferior and that they should be designated as such as a warning to the rest of us. I will never choose a man even over the biggest handmaiden alive, but that doesn't mean that I will close ranks with that handmaiden. I will simply cut her off and leave her to deal with the oppression of womanhood on her own. The lack of gratitide and accountability from western and westernised women especially cannot continue to be rewarded by feminists. Our foremothers did not sacrifice everything just for their pickme progeny to make the active decision to enable their own oppression at the hands of men and the state. You can complain all you want but that didn't compel the big banks to fix the economy after the Great Recession either. Men will not solve the problems that they contributed to, and I sure as hell am not going to step in on their behalf.
Procreation is not a neutral act, it feeds both patriarchy and capitalism, strengthening the very systems that oppress and exploit us. In this world filled of inequality, environmental collapse and systemic violence, choosing not to reproduce becomes an act of resistance. Refusing to bring new life into this broken society is not only a rejection of oppressive institutions, but also a deeply moral stance. Fight back. Choose non reproduction.
