“Women who have objections to marriage, I have no problem with. Men who vocally object to marriage from the left, claiming some sort of ideological purity, I find laughable. The refrain of “let’s not sign any PAPERS, that’s giving in to the MAN, man” started being used by leftist men in the mid to late 1960s. Not particularly coincidentally, this is when the women’s movement was making huge strides in getting no-fault divorce laws into legislatures, eventually seeing the first passage of such a law in California in 1969. Once women made huge strides in custody and divorce proceedings, and could divorce men without having to submit onerous requirements of proof, leftist men suddenly decided they could do without the “oppressive institution” of marriage. Cohabitation still means, due to resource disparities between men and women, that cohabiting women in hetero relationships (especially impoverished ones) often find themselves homeless and propertyless after a breakup. Divorce provides an arbitration mechanism for the fair division of property obtained in the marriage and a separation of property obtained prior to the marriage. Women who are against marriage often have sound reasons. Men are typically rather transparently self-serving.”

Stephanie I will kill you

Ppl will be like “end the stigma around mental illness uwu” but still judge you if you’re unemployed or single or not completely self-sufficient or healthy or perfectly groomed or still live with parents and don’t see the hypocrisy in that whatsoever
It's literally crazy seeing people foam at the mouth about radfems, as if feminists are these dangerous evil murderers that are watching their every move and just waiting to kill a trans person because they just hate them soo much. If it's a man saying it the male socialization is so obvious, they just really enjoy beating women down and making sure women know that if you step out of line even once (by talking about feminism too much or something) they WILL threaten to rape you or beat you, and they will get everyone on their side because "feminazis". You can see that they've clearly waited for the moment when it's acceptable to openly hate and threaten women; now you'll even be praised for it.
If it's a woman saying it, the internalized misogyny is so obvious; they're trying so hard to show men that "See, I'm not one of those crazy feminazis, I'm on your side", they're trying to stay safe from being the next woman labeled a fascist because she reblogged too many posts about women's rights or talked about periods or having a vulva or even thought about all the women and girls suffering and dying because of sex-based oppression. So they'll gladly throw other women to the wolves and let them be ridiculed, threathened or stalked to have a fleeting feeling of being safe from misogyny themselves. But they never will, because the moment you dare to think and speak for yourself you will also be called a terf, swerf or a fascist for thinking that women are oppressed by men for being women.
radfems: features that make up "femininity" such as make-up, high heels, shaving, are constructs of patriarchal societies to control women
very "woke" progressive people on the internet: aw stop ruining the fun! just bc you don't like it doesn't mean it's bad!!! respect people's individual choices!!!
People really do just be throwing around the world anti-Semitism to demonise The Hogwarts Legacy game. It's so clear that they don't give a fuck about Jewish people, because if they did they would challenge their own biases.
If you see a goblins, (which was designed by the movie team and not JKR btw), which are responsible for a bank and immediately think Jew, that's you being anti semitic. You are the one applying Jewish stereotypes to these mythical characters. These characters are not represented poorly either. The goblins are good at their jobs and they are not shown negatively.
Nevermind the allegory for racial purity running throughout the whole Harry Potter series through the death eaters and Voldemort. Who is the villain and never portrayed in a sympathetic light. No, her main theme and criticism of that view doesn't matter.
The gendies desperately claw at the pages of her books looking for anything they can grab onto to make her look worse. They know that their claims of transphobia wouldn't hold up if anyone actually bothered to look into them properly. So they need something that is established to demonise her further.
ik u don’t click links or use tiktok but i wish i had a way to show u this specific video bc it rlly made my blood boil. a trans ‘girl’ starts the vid by saying “day 12 of being a girl” which ig he stole from dylan, went into target and bought a box of tampons, then proceeded to do an ‘unboxing’ in his car and then proceeded to act like a 9 year old boy and say “this thing does not go up inside you. like, where does that go? oh my god what the hell” and just acts so immature, annoying, and basically mocks women the whole video and ppl in the comments are like “she’ll got them in case a woman asks her for one she’s so sweet 🥺” like a woman would see someone who looks like a new york city twink in the bathroom and ask them for anything but poppers.

I love Twitch. I click on a female streamer and within 30 seconds a man is in her chat telling her to go back in the kitchen. One minute later another man is asking for pictures of her feet. I click on another female streamer and she's explaining why she can't put the webcam on: she's had fake lashes put on her and her eyes are red, swollen, crying and burning. She's in so much pain. But it's okay she always gets allergic reactions when she gets fake eye lashes. I click on a male streamer and his girlfriend is hand feeding him dinner so he can keep his hands on the keyboard and play his little game. In response he keeps repeating "you're so pretty oh my god you're so pretty you look incredibly pretty today". His chat is full of men calling the woman "our girlfriend". Twitch keeps recommending me that female streamer who does porn. The female streamer with the highest viewercount among women. A male streamer is anxious to play an online game with vocal chat. He tells his 10k viewers that he's scared another player will say something offensive and he'll get banned from Twitch. In the end he decides to try it, he plays with another guy and it goes well, then he plays with a woman and his chat becomes so misogynistic his moderators have to disable it for a while. I stream myself and try a virtual avatar for the first time, I try to make her look like me. A regular viewer immediately asks me if my breasts are as big in real life. I put my avatar in a wide shirt for a week after that, before ditching the avatar altogether. I receive a private message from a man with a fetish telling me to punish him for saying women can't play video games. He's spamming all women. He made a special account for it. Male streamers' chat are filled with rape jokes inspired by porn. A man who calls his girlfriend a bitch says he won't be playing the Harry Potter game because it's disrespectful to trans people. Many female streamers appear all dolled up under a pink light with a pink catgirl headset the camera titled towards their breasts. Or they use a hentai virtual avatar. All male streamers look like they haven't washed in a month.
