Like, really, you have to be a troll. I don’t even think most TRAs aren’t this dumb and degenerate. You just have to be some white dude from 4chan trying to simultaneously fuck with TRAs and women.

You will never be a woman btw! Thanks for going 100% mask off and once again making it clear why you creatures don’t belong in our spaces. The transgender community continues to show us exactly why they aren’t safe around women and girls.

"What if your mother aborted you?" What if your mother was forced to give birth to you and it was horrifying and traumatic for her? Is that what you want?
i love kink shaming actually. yes I think it’s repulsive that you like role-playing that your gf is your 5 year old daughter while you two are having sex. no i don’t think that it makes it ethical just because you didn’t actually physically rape a child. die mad about it
My pussy disagrees

Something I noticed when I was stripping was that the younger, “hipper,” generally white patrons I came into contact with were by far the most vested in the whole “emotionally invasive performance of enthusiastic consent” thing. They all wanted to hear how I was doing it because I was “empowered” or an “exhibitionist” or just “a slutty sexual deviant that just does this for fun.” Like, I can’t even tell you how many times I actively encouraged this or worked it into a spiel, because nothing kills a sale like a pang of conscience alerting men that maybe this smart, seemingly stable girl doesn’t want to be here. I think that thinking I was “into it” somehow made it easier for them to feel like they weren’t just giant losers paying for sex.
I am entirely convinced that men only care about women being “empowered” by things like sex work because its easier on their ego as consumers, not because they give a shit about our wellbeing. Sex positive feminism is a dream come true for these men - all the benefits of exploiting women as sexual commodities without any guilt or stigma for being a creepy ass john.
You are either 13 or extremely stupid.

I hate Reddit
there is a subreddit called guysbeingdudes that is always front page, with videos of men having fun or doing funny things and men in the comments acting like it's unique to men. so, someone, presumably women, created justgalsbeingchicks and letgirlshavefun to have a sub for the same thing of women just having fun, but it almost immediately got swarmed with men who have completely taken over it, and now any post of it on the r/all page is either sexual shit like 'let girls go stupid on the dick' 'me when he cums inside' or memes and videos revolving around negative misogynistic tropes and stereotypes, posted as 'haha, women are so dumb and silly'. but everything is posted as if the posters and commenters are women, and they're all men.
"but if i don't shave then it's super itchy!" it's itchy because it's trying to grow back you fucking dumbasses, let it grow out to normal length and you won't be itchy. problem fucking solved.

Pornography FAQ (http://catwa.org.au/?q=node/67 ):
How is pornography related to prostitution?
Pornography and prostitution are often thought of as completely separate entities. In many parts of the world, this is even reflected in law where pornography and prostitution hold very different positions; pornography is often privileged as a form of ‘representation’. Pornography, however, is filmed prostitution. Both pornography and prostitution involve the sexual use of women in exchange for money. Often, the only difference between the two is the presence of a camera. Pornography can also be seen to increase the legitimacy of prostitution, by depicting the commercial sexual exploitation of women as entertaining, glamorous and acceptable. In addition, pornography is frequently used by pimps to ‘season’ or train women for prostitution and in a rather cyclical relationship, women used in prostitution are often also used in pornography.
Shouldn’t pornography be protected as free speech?
It is important to note that pornography is not speech but rather filmed acts of prostitution. Pornography is not merely the representation of sex acts, but involves the filming of real sex acts, performed by real people. Arguing that pornography is speech, ignores the realities of how pornography is actually produced and also ignores the harm to women that pornography both generates and reinforces.
Read: Only Words, by Catharine MacKinnon Isn’t porn just harmless sex?
There is no such thing as harmless pornography. Many people believe pornography to simply be sex between ‘consenting adults’ rather than understanding pornography as a multi-billion dollar industry. Pornography is not ‘just sex’, it is a particular construction of sex which involves the commercial sexual exploitation of women for the purpose of men’s sexual pleasure. Pornography harms both the women who are directly abused in the making of it, and also women as a group more generally. It promotes a model of sexuality which is incompatible with women’s equality.“[P]ornography plays an important part in contributing to sexual violence against women and to sex discrimination and sex inequality” - Catherine Itzin Pornography: Women violence and civil liberties. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1992 (p. 1).
Isn’t pornography a good sexual outlet for men?
The idea that pornography creates a useful sexual release for men, assumes that men have uncontrollable sexual ‘urges’ which require an outlet. It also assumes that pornography use is acceptable and healthy. Neither is the case. Pornography use is harmful to the women used in creating it, and pornography creates and reinforces harmful ideas about women, sex and sexuality; for example, that women enjoy or welcome unwanted sexual contact and sexual assault. Rather than reducing the likelihood that men will act out, it creates a culture in which women are increasingly objectified and viewed as commodities. Such a culture helps to fuel, rather than prevent, acts of sexual violence.
Doesn’t opposing pornography make you a prude?
Many people assume that the only reason to oppose pornography is because you find it personally ‘offensive’ or are ‘anti-sex’. Opposing pornography means that you oppose abusive sexual practices that harm women, not that you must oppose all sex. Nor does opposing pornography have to be about arguing that its content personally offends you. From a feminist perspective, it is not necessarily explicitness or the depiction of sex which is the problem with pornography. It is not about offence and decency, but about harm. “What is objectionable about pornography…is its abusive and degrading portrayal of females and female sexuality, not its sexual content or explicitness” – Diana Russell Dangerous relationships: Pornography, misogyny, and rape. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications, 1998 (p. 5).
What is pornification?
Pornification, sometimes referred to as pornographication or ‘raunch culture’ is the increasing distribution and acceptance of pornography as well as the fragmenting and blurring of pornography and pornographic imagery into popular culture. Pornography and pornographic imagery are infiltrating popular music videos, outdoor advertising, fashion and art to name but a few. While pornographication is sometimes viewed as simply the increasing acceptance of sexual themes in media, it is actually the promotion of a particular model of sex which is harmful to women. The mainstreaming of this type of pornographic sexuality which fundamentally objectifies women, is already harming the development of young women and girls. The American Psychological Association, for example, has linked the rise of this unhealthy model of sexuality to increases in mental health problems such as eating disorders, low self-esteem, and depression.

Pornography and Pornification
The global industry of pornography is growing rapidly. The business of pornography is now worth in excess of $57 billion worldwide. More than $10 billion is generated in the United States alone. Pornography is an industry which, like prostitution, makes its ever increasing profits from the sexual exploitation of women and girls. Women in both the pornography and prostitution industries suffer abuse and violence. Despite this grim reality, tolerance for pornography is increasing in Australia and many other Western nations. Through the ‘mainstreaming of pornography’ or ‘pornification,’ pornographic imagery and even pornography itself are gaining legitimacy and a degree of glamour and cultural chic. Porn stars are becoming household names, advertising mimics pornographic conventions and poses, and Playboy is not just a magazine but a global brand that markets everything from clothing to stationery. The mainstreaming of pornography is also changing our conceptions of sexuality. Women are increasingly becoming required to perform sex acts straight from pornography in their everyday heterosexual relationships, and the pornographic model of sexuality is harming girls’ and women’s concepts of self. As pornography continues to become more prominent and pornographic imagery becomes more ‘mainstreamed’ we become accustomed to living in a pornified world in which it is acceptable that women and girls can be bought and sold.

What happened to "clothes don't have a gender" and why do you need to project all of this bullshit onto your infant baby? Suddenly pink equals girl and blue equals boy again and you call yourself progressive.
Not by any means a fan of her but Aella has a substack post named “Are trans women actually as scary as cis men?” which shows that TIMs are more likely to answer yes to a question in one of her widespread surveys regarding whether they have knowingly had a sexual experience with someone who didn’t want it, with “non-binary” men having the highest likelihood of all. The author somehow concluded that this still doesn’t show women should have our own spaces, because women are apparently “neurotic and paranoid”.

Some changes in girls that occur during puberty:
•Darkening of the labia and anus.
•Growth of pubic and body hair.
•Inner labia and clitoral hood tend to grow.
•Outer labia lose volume.
Meanwhile, men’s ideal vulva:
•Tiny, pink inner labia.
•Even toned, plump outer labia.
•Entirely hairless, soft, and blemish free.
•”Virgin tight”

I think what people dont realize is pedophilia literally IS the default male sexuality. what are the beauty standards for women? oh, shaved armpits, shaved legs, shaved pussy, tiny bodyframe. hmmm what does this remind me of?
go watch an anime, idc what anyone is saying, those "women" are depicted as CHILDREN. go watch any show or movie, there will I guarantee you be a middle aged man with a wife who has barely any wrinkles. there are countless other examples. just look around you.
And this all without even mentioning the Australian university study that found out 1 in 5 of males are pedos. women need to wake up.

female breasts being censored makes me uncomfortable, female breasts being deemed sexual make me really uncomfortable, people who censor female nipples give me an ick and they give me SUCH an ick that I cannot even tell in words, I deem it a redflag on sight
female nipples being shown only in pornographic context makes me uncomfortable, it makes me fucking angry and sad
