"The greatest revolution in a country is the one that changes women and their way of life. You can't make the revolution without women. Perhaps women are physically weaker but morally they have a hundred times greater strength.”

I'm trying to understand why feminism is hated by other women. Most of them say "I'm not feminist because I want equality and not women above men". They care more about men than us.
They care more about the same people who harass, rape and kill women just because they (we) exist.
Every time [woman] behaves like a human being, she is declared to be identifying with the male.

christianity will be like, nooo, don't worship life-giving nature, thousand year old trees or mountains or sources of clean water or animals that existed long before us, or women who created all human life on earth, those are just resources! Don't learn about the medicinal plants or how to safely deliver children and cure women's diseases, that's devil's business!

Emma Watson immediately jumped on the Rowling hate train, and proceeded to make it her personality in the years since. Even declining to talk about her in interviews, saying “we’re not going to talk about that woman”.
But did she ever speak up about Iran? Did she ever even put out one of her “solidarity” posts for the women of Iran?
And what did Rowling say about Iran? 🤔
And how did TRAs respond?
Y’all will make any women’s issue about trans people instead.
Just say you’re a western performative activist and move on.
The only wrong abortion is that which women are forced or coerced into getting. All the rest are good actually, yes all of them.
Fata Morgana
a superior mirage caused by warm air resting on patches of colder air in an atmospheric duct that acts like a refracting lens. Objects on the horizon could appear to be mirrored, distorted, or float. This form of mirage could be the reason for the Flying Dutchman Legend.
1966 - not even 60 years ago. She’s still alive today.
Important notes:
Italy was very predominantly Christian, which had heavy influence on their legal system.
Women were basically told no one would ever love them, marry them, have kids with them, take care of them, etc. if they were “used up”.
Men’s crimes were forgiven if the woman married him.
While gossip among women is universally ridiculed as low and trivial, gossip among men, especially if it is about women, is called theory, or idea, or fact.
