On December 6th 1989, fourteen young women, many of them engineering students, were murdered in the mass shooting at Montreal’s École Polytechnique that was prompted by the killer’s hatred of women and what he said was “fighting feminism”. On December 6, the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, we remember: Geneviève Bergeron Hélène Colgan Nathalie Croteau Barbara Daigneault Anne-Marie Edward Maud Haviernick Maryse Laganière Maryse Leclair Anne-Marie Lemay Sonia Pelletier Michèle Richard Annie St-Arneault Annie Turcotte Barbara Klucznik-Widajewicz
‘TERFs are not real feminists, all they do is bring down trans people, instead of actually addressing the female problems, in Afghanistan, etc.’
We do speak about these matters, you just don’t know because you are not a part of the radical feminist community. The thing is, you are not interested in it. The only thing that sparks your interest is the ‘dolls’.
Hence why you are showed with radical feminist’s posts with gender critique.
If you knew anything about radical feminism, you would hear conversations about skin- selling business in Nepal that targets the sex workers, you would know of the conversations about how surrogates were treated in India by the agencies, you would hear us talking about the patterns of misogyny in the global media.
But you are not interested. You have no desire to actually look into radical feminism, and understand what it is about. You have your agenda that you have to feed with hatred for ‘terf bitches’
i think that "women's shelters" that turn away mothers with sons and trans women should be burnt to the ground
found this on pinterest, thought you all might like it :3
I love to see the general public finally waking tf up
Guess what group has been talking about all these things for years and was demonized, shamed and threatend for it 🤔
Okay tbh.
Even when I was a TRA, I felt a bit stupid when I’d say ‘trans women’ experienced worse oppression than ‘trans men’.
Because a part of me believed in sex-based oppression, but I couldn’t say that without being called a terf. So I just didn’t question it. But now I’m questioning it because… how is it that someone who was born male, was treated better for being male, and was afforded more privileges for being male can say, “I’m a woman teehee!” and all of that male privilege is just gone?
And how a female can be treated as lesser than and experience medical discrimination on the basis of her female sex, but they call themselves a man and woosh! All of the misogyny they’ve faced is gone!
“Erm well it is because trans women are women and trans men are men, so women are treated worse than men! Erm achshually this is feminism 101!”
But a woman isn’t treated horribly for saying she’s a woman. A woman is treated horribly because her sex is female. Trans men are female and therefore they experience misogyny. Trans women are male and don’t experience misogyny (unless you ‘count’ the misdirected misogyny when someone falsely assumes a TiM is a female, which is, as I said, misdirected and not an example of them actually experiencing misogyny).
So, if we’re comparing the oppression of trans men (TiFs) and trans women (TiMs)… I believe females are oppressed while males are not (on the basis of sex). So even if you’re still a TRA… it doesn’t make sense to deny reality and claim trans ‘women’ have it sooo much worse than trans ‘men’ because doing so would be denying sex-based oppression. And denying sex-based oppression is denying history.
Y’all get me?
[He stabbed me 13 times]
Michell showing the scars of her stabbing, among other women victims of male violence, protested this March 8th in Mexico City. The mexican state has consistently failed women and girls, often mocking or ignoring them until it's too late.
Just like millions of abusive men, her aggressor (a former romantic partner) walks freely because her injuries werent considered bad enough to send him to jail. It's no secret that the police and judicial system are abyssmally unjust towards women.
According to official data, 11 women are killed daily in Mexico but according to CIMACnoticias, this number might be skewed by the government itself.
Why does it piss so many men off online that women are nice to eachother? They can never leave us aloneeeeeeee I’ll see a post of a pretty fat girl (or a woman they don’t consider attractive) and the girls will be commenting normal and kind stuff but the men will be like “LYING FAKE BITCHES 🤬🤬🤬🤬 THAT’S WHY YOU CAN’T BE TRUSTED” like calm the fuck down
I marvel at how much vitriol TIMs and trans activists have for TERFs that is never shown towards conservative males. TERFs typically don't care about what trans-identified people do as long as TIMs are not coming into women and girls' spaces, whereas a lot of conservative males would be happy to see them dead or stripped of every one of their most basic human rights. But I don't see them carrying signs saying "kill all conservatives," "kill all cis men," or anything close to the vile crap they reserve for us. They're such cowards.
