It's Not A Slur, You'll Live. White Cis Male TRA

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.

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

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?

oh lmao I thought, well, hoped it was satire.

I don't know if you've ever actually talked to an MRA or not honestly.

So MRAs are usually the type to say shit like "im pro-equality and that's why im not feminist", aka these poor men you're defending or maybe even you too. They also think the whole world is a matriarchy. Yeah, turns out they don't even think women in Afghanistan are oppressed, and yes I did ask. They don't think women are or were ever oppressed in general either. They are also mostly anti-abortion and even anti-no fault divorce to basically spite women.

On the other hand, feminists, yes even the KAM radfems, don't take mens rights away. Men are just mad if we also have rights, and have ALWAYS been using the same arguments against feminists. The "feminists hate men" thing was definitely popular during 1st wave feminism.

Also, essentially all of the actual polices that they say are sexism against men, are because of traditionalists, yet... it's women, specifically feminists, that are just... driving them to insanity for saying KAM at misogynists on twitter??

But good luck with the coddling these dudes though! I'm sure these men will listen to you!

Alright this is gonna be tough for alot of ya'll to hear but leftist and progressive spaces need to be more welcoming to men especially cis het white men. The more we speak bad about men the more men will go down the alt right pipeline. And obviously that's a bad thing. If we want men to be on our side we should create a space where they can also feel included because if we don't more men will go down the alt right and alpha male pipeline

i don’t want to hear about ur “feminism” if u actively talk over & mock woc when we ask u to not be racist in feminist spaces. i don’t want to hear about ur “feminism” if u actively talk over & mock lesbians when we ask u not to be lesbophobic in feminist spaces. one crucial aspect to achieving female liberation is first forming female class consciousness and solidarity, and racism & lesbophobia get in the way of forming global female solidarity. yes this is still the case even when u pretend ur racism only selectively applies to men

YESSS WE HAVE HOPE

REAL

christianity pet peeve

"we're all sinners" "love the sinner, hate the sin" "we deserve god's wrath"

i hated being told that i was inherently worthless in gods eyes. it really destroys your self esteem. it's basically saying 'before you're a human you're evil and deserve to burn in hell!'

so be it. anything to get away from you and your religion

Way to completely miss the point

I was scared of the day when I realized that my little brother was just like every other male, and that day came yesterday when he showed me "memes" he made with his friends about his female classmate being fat and ugly. They're 12. I feel so bad for the little girl. She had such a cute and genuine smile on the photo they used to make fun of her. She's just a little baby, and males in her class are already being so fucking terrible.

I told him that what he was doing was mean and that he should delete it, but he just brushed me off, and we haven't talked about it ever since. I swear, if I catch him doing something like this again, then I won't hold back on him.

Often, men will say something like : "Who built this world? Men! Who created everything, all the technology, the great art, the culture, our societies? Who built the roads you drive on? Men!" and feminists will respond "That's because you didn't let us work or make art!" and... that's just wrong? Why are you validating the idea that women didn't contribute anything to the world? That we didn't work? That we didn't innovate? And why are you approving the nonsense that says being a mother is not work?

Don't let men rewrite history.

Women have always worked the double shift; outside of home and inside of home.
