the first time I was called a bitch in person I cried for 5 minutes. it was my own brother, I was just trying to get him to clean the table since I made the fucking dish.i think this tells you everything you need to know
Males find it ‘affirming’ to be called a misogynistic slur. 🙄
have u guys heard of the doc going on that claims Neil wrote this season with "bad writing" on purpose and some of the flashbacks are false? cause it's the only thing they talk on twitter
most random shit to happen in the show and i still hate it to this day vşcktxoyfpydots
like if you weren't loved properly as a baby can you ever be fixed. i feel like an important part of my brain never got watered it didn't soak deep enough. idk how people just go around doing what they do so easily and im just pretending to understand but feeling nothing but overwhelming pain
queer summary: old gay man without a purpose sets his eyes out for a seemingly straight young man. the experienced one is desperate for connection to a point he takes them out to a jungle in South Africa in an attempt to do "telepathy" with mysterious weed. the drug freaks the young one since it feels like they are merging together. he leaves the sugar daddy and never comes back. Daniel Craig dies alone on a hotel bed while imagining he's cuddling him.
Do you love yourself? I don’t have to answer that. It should matter. He has a body but it doesn’t matter, clean sheets on the bed but it doesn’t matter. (Unfinished Duet - Richard Siken)
Is there a way to be critical of gender without denying that trans men are men etc? Let me explain.
Gender dysphoria is real and trans and nonbinary people have to be respected - that's what I believe. However, I see that a lot of discource about gender and identities is focused on stereotypes - like afab people saying thay they knew they weren't a woman because of their interests, personal style and being gnc in general, while all those things can be done while being a woman. Also what I've seen get called woman vibes are mostly stuff like nail polish or a caring nature, which are stuff I actually love seing in men (and everyone tbh, we need more nice people but that's unrelated). Everyone has their own mind and autonomy and freedom to identify as they wish, and it's not my business to inquire why they choose to identify the way they do, I acknowledge that because it's just called being respectful. So if a fem presenting person told me their pronouns are he/they, I'd use that since it's not really something I should dig about. I'll use that and prob see them as transmasc or wtv label they wish to use, and I'd also be normal about that. But I'm also kinda critical of the root of this - like me thinking I was a demi girl or nb because I felt uncomfortable in my body during puberty and tiktok told me it was a sign, but I still identify as a cis girl and I feel fine. I don't think trans women are just porn addicted men or that trans men are confused women, I'm just wondering why it's so based in stereotypes, you know??
TL;DR I don't want to come off as a transphobe, I want to articulate that despite criticising the concept of gender and its stereotypes, people's choices and pronouns should be respected and acknowledged. Is it still gender critical, or is it called something else? I want to find people who think similar as me.
English isn't my first language sorry if I was unclear or used weird words or repeated myself lol
I just had this conversation with my friend and I thought I'd share it here : believing that feminism has to educate men in order to destroy the patriarchy because we cannot do it without them (this is what she believes) is believing that men oppress us because they are ignorant. It is saying that they oppress us because they don't know what they're doing and don't realize they are doing something wrong, and that somehow this ignorance has been going on for centuries. It is being overly naive. Men aren't babies. Men aren't innocent little beings who would never hurt us if they knew their actions were hurtful. They have been oppressing us for thousands of years, we have been figthing against it for thousands of years ; how could it be possible for them not to understand what they do ? How could they possibly take away our rights without understanding what they do ? How could they hit us, rape us, traffick us without understanding what they do ? And it's not like feminism is new. We have been fighting for centuries and they have been fighting back for centuries to prevent us to free ourselves. They don't read feminist books, they don't take listen to our sperches, they ignore us when we talk about our rights, they mock us, they don't take us seriously. And listen to them speaking. Listen to them giving each other relationship advices, teaching each other to manipulate us. Listen to them talking about us. Read their comments on the internet. Read their damn books and essays about feminism and women's rights. They know what they're doing. They don't care about us. They hate us, they don't see us as humans.
we can mention how unfair it is an intersex individual that has a significant amount of phycological advantage over an adult human female, competed in a category that she was not fit for while still acknowledging she was raised, criticised and shaped by female socialization. I think that's a thing we can do.
I think I'm having a purpose crisis again or whichever deity listening has to come for help cause 11 hours of sleep and still tired cannot be solved with human intervention
la tristesse durera toujours. being a fujoshi is payback for all of the sexualization our sisterhood faces daily
