genuinely insane how any words for bad things get censored even if you're denouncing it or bringing awareness. God forbid a company can't sponsor a video or liberals get offended by seeing a bad word.
Do people not realize how this makes the problems worse? How can you fight nazis without even being able to say the word "nazi"?
Talking like "people are being unalived on a mass scale like in bad germany". literally 1984 what the fuck is wrong with people.
When did I ever say they will just "give it up"? We didn't get whatever rights we have now because they just gave it up. Don't discredit 20th century feminists like that. They rioted for our rights and were often successful in various ways.
Patriarchy isn't some natural state of the world either.
I think that patriarchy will end for the simple reason that men are not superior to women.
lowkey getting tired of self defeatist blackpill attitudes "the patriarchy will never end" Why not? We went from using boats to rockets in like 200 years but you think men will forever have privilege in society? Why do you think that?
Almost a year ago I got my "dream job" of working at Sephora. I had already began reading a lot of rad fem literature by the time I got there.
10 years ago I would have loved it but by the time I was working there I was already aware of the dystopian nightmare it really is.
It was one thing to help someone find a basic skin care routine to calm their skin but when we had to push certain products.
To make the sales goals you had to look at a woman's face and slowly ask and press them on their flaws and suggest the magic product that would help them.
I did it for one day, I killed it on the sales floor. I could not sleep that night and had already began drafting my resignation letter.
When I grew up, drag full face glam was popular but now it was the "no makeup, clean girl" look and I had to help girl find foundations that would hide their flaws.
Their flaws were either
1. Natural human function of the largest organ we have
2. Cover up the damage they were continuing to do with all the latest products.
I pleaded with parents to not buy little girls skin care than I knew would destroy their skin barriers. But isn't that the point? So when they grow up they need products to help cover up or heal the damage they have caused.
They paid so little I couldn't even afford most of the products in the store even with my discount.
We would have to clap when told we made the company billions of dollars in profits.
It really pushed home the oppressive costume that is "femininity".
I have a lot more to say but I'm droning now.
But I have to say I understand now why people do not want to engage with radical feminism because it "ruins" everything. Everywhere you look you realize the psyops being ran to keep woman consuming and enjoying their bonds.
thoughts on youthlib?
Honestly I had basically no idea about this movement but I just looked it up.
It makes some sense, like for rights to education, protecting children from child abuse, etc.
However, I don't see how it's a good idea to get rid of "ageism" towards young people since it's just a fact that children are immature and shouldn't be treated equal to adults.
How about you? (you can just send me another anon message saying "youthlib anon here" or something)
deadass how are you gonna be a right-winger on Tumblr lmao Loser behavior fr
Most feminists didn't want that actually, yet because of feminist efforts, we could if we wanted to. Misogynists say they can live without women, yet mens' health tends to get better after marriage and women's gets worse. and if you think feminists didn't do anything, and that women now making up 50% of the workforce and having mostly equal legal rights to men is insignificant, then you're a dumbass, plain and simple.
A woman is an adult female human

I think this deserves its own post without my personal ramblings mixed in:
Whenever anyone panics or whines or scaremongers about the higher rate of women attending university, it's important to examine why more women are motivated to attend university in the first place, because I guarantee you it's no female privilege of any sort that's driving more women to obtain university degrees.
Specifically you need to look at the job opportunities that are available to men without a university degree vs. the job opportunities available to women without university degrees.
A lot of the jobs / sources of income that are stable and pay well despite not needing university degrees, trade jobs like a mechanic or a plumber or a welder, are heavily male dominated industries. And male dominated industry is pretty synonymous with hostile towards women. I cannot blame women who resist entering a field they're likely to face a lot of harassment, bullying, and even assault for daring to be a woman who enters a male dominated job.
And when you look at the types of jobs that are available to women who don't attend university often most of their opportunities are going to be food service or retail, jobs that pay less than a living wage for you to be on your feet all day facing constant verbal abuse from customers and managers alike.
So if a woman wants to be paid her own living wage and lower her chances of having to deal with abuse and harassment in the workplace, then she's more likely to be pushed to having to go to university.
There are of course exceptions to this (after all nothing is black and white and everything has nuance) such as many technician jobs in the medical field don't require a university degree, and are female dominated, and fetch a decent salary above what a service industry employee might make.
But overall it's interesting when you compare a lot of "pink collar" jobs like nurse or primary school teacher vs blue collar jobs like mechanic or plumber, the wages are comparable, but the "pink collar" jobs like nurse or primary school teacher will require a university degree whereas the blue collar jobs with a similar salary don't.
So when someone tries to worry and panic over the poor boys not going to university as much as their female counterparts and site the higher rates of women attending university as some sort of female privilege, to be perfectly honest I hardly consider it a privilege to need a university degree just to have a living wage without having to face harassment for entering a male dominated industry, to have more schooling than a man just so you can earn the same wages as his or even lower.
How "the male gaze is revolutionary" is a genuine take now, is just insane to me
"Anora wasn't a good movie but you gotta admit that a movie about sex work winning so many awards in this political climate is revolutionary!!!"
Both Nazis and Fascists supported the opening of brothels because they helped reinforce the idea that women are to be subservient to men, if not as mothers and wives, then as means for sex. There's nothing revolutionary about Anora winning, and it's even less revolutionary in this political climate. You guys are just allergic to history books.
