becomes a radical feminist

I'm making flyers to give out and posters to put up around my community. I'm trying to create a community of woymn to educate, and so that other womyn in my area will have other womyns support. After that, I'd like to expand outside my area, and grow.

Here's a draft of the flyer design.

Any advice on the design or how to organise this community is greatly appreciated!

so incredibly tired of choice "feminists"

Sex is why women are opressed

Gender is how

this.

At its core, “gender critical” ideology has nothing to do with transgender ideology. There’s three main beliefs that create a gender critical ideology and none of them have anything to do with or stem from trans issues.

1. Sex is a physical and material reality. You can touch and hold a penis or vagina. You can measure testosterone or oestrogen differences between men and women. You can study any inherent differences in the brain. Yes, intersex people also exist. That difference in sex development is also a material reality.

2. Gender is a social construct. A conservative, patriarchal invention that believes (as a modern example) women must like dresses and men must like pants. Women like pink and men like blue, or in other cultures or times, other ideas. This is not a material reality, it’s only socialisation. Nothing about material reality makes women like pink. There may be some debate regarding where sex stops and gender socialisation begins, as scientific analysis of the brain has not developed enough to know exactly what is inherent and what is part of the socialisation which starts at (or before) birth.

3. The social construct of gender should be abolished, as it is the foundation of a patriarchy. Women are given gender roles which revolve around being subordinate and submissive, as to obey the patriarch, and men’s gender roles are to be aggressive and strong, as to serve in the military. Sex differences are to be respected and gender is to be abolished. Decisions regarding safety, medical care, and other treatment of people should be based on sex, material reality which effects everyone, not gender.

The issue with trans ideology only comes in where in order to transition gender, gender as a social construct must be maintained. To feel “validated” in changing gender, gender must become more important and more recognised than sex. It pushes that decisions regarding the treatment of and protection of people should be made based on gender rather than sex, entirely opposite to the gender critical belief. Gender needs to be reinforced and protected for the ideology to make any sense at all, otherwise, what are you transitioning to?

Gender critical ideology does not target trans people or ideology. It targets a misogynistic social construct. It is not about trans people or ideologies. It is about a misogynistic social construct and its abolition. It’s just that trans ideology happens to rely on that misogynistic construct which gender critical ideology aims to abolish, and thus, they are opposed.

Gender critical ideology is only anti-patriarchy and anti-conservative. Gender belongs to patriarchy and conservatism. Transgender ideology only has issues with gender critical ideology because it is built on gender and falls apart without it.

I am aware gender dysphoria exists. Gender dysphoria would not exist if gender did not exist. Would you rather children develop gender dysphoria and spend thousands of dollars attempting to free themselves of it, suffering for years in the meantime, or that that suffering not exist in the first place? You can argue all you want that sex dysphoria is the real issue, but if that’s the case, call it such and we can learn to deal with it, but for now it’s an entirely different topic since gender ideology chooses to revolve around “gender” instead.

men are responsible for everything i hate about the world. don't like war? men are behind it. don't like gangs? men are behind it. don't like billionaires? don't like capitalism? don't like poor medical infrastructure? don't like teen pregnancy? don't like pedophilia? don't like divorce? don't like public insecurity? don't like invasion of privacy? don't like theft? don't like rape? don't like climate change? don't like slavery and human trafficking? don't like fascism? don't like tribalism? don't like colonialism? don't like the systemic violence enacted on homosexual people? don't like hierarchy? don't like inequality? don't like massacres and genocides? don't like economic instability? what? is there anything you hate? feel anger toward? is anything sacred to you? are you bothered by anything?

to say you love men is to say you love the world as it is.

The reason why racism is portrayed to be a much bigger problem than misogyny is because men are affected by racism.

Society doesn’t take any problems seriously until a man is directly being affected by them too.

Whoever wrote this, slayed so hard with all these statements, truer words have never been spoken

as a bengali girl one of the biggest reasons i used to think i was "nonbinary" was bc i was told it was normal to have an incongruence w/ womanhood bc of my race... who fed me this lie

why is womanhood based on a woman's proximity to whiteness?? why are women of color deemed less female for the not fitting standards made against us? and why is the solution to that to push us into some third gender instead of just abolishing gender itself?????

has anyone else experienced something similar??

You can really see "women see other women as enemies" it's female socialization. Back then, women were constantly pushed to hate each other. We saw it through movies, novels, everywhere. And everytime, everytime other women were painted in a bad light because they "were trying to steal our man"

All of this content were made by men themselves, they knew if women were busy fighting each other, they would never realize men are the actual cause of most women's struggles. They knew if we were together, we would be strong.

Now most women are aware of who they should be aware of. I see so many women supporting each other, and it makes me so happy.
