I'm disapointed of myself for being on Tumblr during my derivatives course
the concept that privilege on one axis can “cancel out” oppression on another axis is such a prevailing idea among this generation. it’s led to so much damage within social justice movements, and i think it directly contributed to the rise of identity politics, “oppression olympics,” and the obsession with listing every detail about your mental illnesses, race, and disabilities online. it’s a constant battle to prove that you’re oppressed, that you have the least amount of net privilege. it’s not factual, and it has no bearing in the real world. oppression and privilege on different axes can’t be added and subtracted from each other. they are different variables.
I don’t think we as a society talk nearly enough about how intricately connected cats and women are. cats are associated with women so heavily, not just in English but in other languages as well. the stereotype of the ‘crazy cat lady’, the fact words to refer to cats are often also used to refer to female genitalia, ‘cat fight’, ‘catty’, etc.
Cats have suffered alongside women, too, which is not something I have seen brought up. Cats were targeted during the Witch Hunts as well, and suffered similar fates as the women they hunted. During this time, cats were nearly driven to extinction, and the mice and rat population go out of control— which is believed to have heavily contributed if not outright caused one of the most famous plagues.
To this day, I think we need to analyze if it’s truly a coincidence that cats are often portrayed as mean or uncaring because they do not behave the same way as dogs— “man’s best friend”— that their boundaries are violated for fun and then people criticize the cat for reacting, for self-defense. They will mutilate a cat so it cannot defend itself, and then abandon it when it is understandably upset, when it can no longer feel safe.
If you look at the statistics, more cats enter animal shelters than dogs, and tend to stay for longer. Personally, my local humane societies seem to have almost exclusively cats. In part, this is because cats are more effective at reproducing than dogs, and there are very little if any resources dedicated to to TNR. This is also because people will not spay/neuter their cats, and then will abandon the cat and/or just the kittens.
I do not think it is entirely coincidental that cats are so heavily associated with women, and they are villainized for not being dogs. That dogs are called “man’s best friend”, but somehow that does not mean cats are called “women’s best friend”— instead diamonds are, for whatever reason, despite women’s shared history with cats, and shared experience of being villainized for having boundaries. They are made the villain for being cats instead of dogs, they are called uncaring and “assholes” because the way they show love is not identical to the way a dog does.
I feel like there is no way it is entirely coincidental, the way cats are hated and the way they are so heavily associated with women, with females.
Naming the female razor brand Venus is so personally offensive to me....you think Venus the goddess of love and sex and beauty was shaving her PUSSY? Go kill yourself
People say "humans are evil" and then they only name examples of male violence and patriarchy
Idea for a dating sim game where all the anime girls politely decline your advances and if you keep playing the game and try to “win them over” they get angrier and more distressed until finally you’re expelled from your magical high school for sexual harassment and your father says how disappointed he is in you for squandering such a great educational opportunity.
Let men start getting used to the idea that women are not NPCs that just react to your male desires. Let them see that there is no “overcoming” a woman that doesn’t want you. And let him see that there will be consequences.
Just a place to express myself, I'm trying to learn
