Incredible Things Happening On Tumblr

why do you think women get so angry when they see women posting themselves not wearing makeup to special occasions like this? I’m sure envy/ jealousy is a part of it but I don’t think it’s just that

They hate to be reminded that there's a life outside the cage. Just like they hate to confront the fact that they're willfully participating in their own oppression. These women just want all women to maintain the status quo because it's easier for them to live life.

If you're a feminist who actually wants change, I imagine you ought to be less worried about alienating the average women in heterosexual relationships who are very likely to prioritise their relationships with a man (close, personal, comfortable) over any cause (faraway, oppositional, risky, unknown), and more worried about alienating heterosexual women who are on the fence or already celibate and separatist.

But no, feminists are entertaining inter-feminist discussions about ridiculous notions such as "heterophobia," about how unfair it is that lesbians are supposedly having marathon sex on the daily who stop heterosexual women from having sex with statistically-proven-to-be-dangerous men, and being accommodating of downright embarrassing behaviour from women who are wailing about how badly they want to suck cock.

Call me a puritan or a label me a misogynist, but I don't care about a woman's "human need" to sleep with multiple strange men. To me, it's just as selfish and reckless as men hopping from woman to woman creating children that will end up unloved or abandoned. I'm first and foremost an antinatalist at heart and the "sexual liberation" movement is a major detriment to society and the children that spawn from it. Especially when these men are literally telling you, "I don't care about you or any baby that results from this exchange; I just want to use your body for my pleasure".

glad to be a eugenicist. glad to not pretend that humans aren't animals. glad to not think humans are in any way special. glad to not deny reality to self-soothe and/or shame opposition.

Women will complain about abortion bans and being treated like breeding mules but these same women (who are most likely moms) will shut down conversations that childfree women attempt to have about our experiences.

I stay within childfree spaces. I follow mostly childfree women on social media. I don't go online looking for spaces where mothers are talking about their experiences because I don't care.

However, whenever I go into the comment section of a childfree woman's post I see a lot of mothers commenting. Some of them criticizing, some giving backhanded compliments or their motherly approval nobody asked for, but what I find most interesting is how they will talk amongst themselves within the comments on posts or pages that are geared towards childfree women.

They know who's reading these posts, they know it's predominantly childfree looking for support or a place to share our experience being childfree. But still, I see comments along the lines of: "yeah yeah being childfree is great BUT LADIES CAN WE PLEASE DISCUSS THE BEAUTY OF MOTHERHOOD? ☺️"

Women police other women back into the roles that they simultaneously bitch about.

Whining about motherhood and how hard it is to a man but if a woman says she's childfree and wants fuck all to do with kids then she'll weaponize her societal status of mom to size up that woman and try to make her seem lesser.

It's passive aggressive and attention seeking behavior.

someone got salty that I said some women become mothers out of naked self interest / desire for more victims / free labor & called it a bad take. well. it's not a take it's an observation. some women even use their own children to secure pedophile mates and act as their children's pimps. there is nothing inherently sacred or sanctifying about motherhood & the people who want to pretend otherwise are often the ones who cry crocodile tears for sacred Motherhood when accused of (enabling) abuse

Fascism thrives on ignorance and anti-intellectualism. Here are some ways you can combat it:

There is an ongoing literacy crisis. Teach kids how to read phonetically (other methods produce poor literacy) and introduce them to fun books, both fiction and educational non-fiction.

Teach kids about critical thinking and the scientific method.

You can also introduce kids to edutainment like Sesame Street, Reading Rainbow, The Magic Schoolbus, Bill Nye The Science Guy, Beakman's World, etc.

Help kids develop media literacy skills by asking them literary analysis questions about the media they engage with. Even very young children can begin learning literary analysis if the questions are phrased in words they can understand.

Learn and help other people learn information literacy, ie, how to locate and evaluate information.

Learn the red flags of pseudoscience, and educate other people about them.

Educate people and share media on real science and real history, because fascist narratives are full of pseudoscience and pseudohistory. (Miniminuteman, Gutsick Gibbon and Bart D. Ehrman's YouTube channel are great, by the way!)

Make learning a joyful experience, and show people the beauty and wonder of what's real. Being a discouraging killjoy will spoil your efforts.

“yall never criticize men like this” says radfem… here’s the thing. women DO criticize men for their behavior, men don’t listen, why waste time on men? when a woman is catering to men (i.e the female singers that are very much catering to men and the patriarchy chappell roan and sabrina carpenter and sooo many more), as a woman, im not gonna sit back and allow them to make us all look like doormats. SORRY. im not gonna sit back and watch them reinforce stupid stereotypes onto little girls and women. it’s not in my nature, it’s not who i am. that weak bullshit is why we’re always gonna be where we’re at. we need to address problems , just because it’s a woman doesn’t mean that it’s feminist to just shut up and call her a victim. some of u need to go back to ur little libfem spaces and stfu.

ever since i was a little girl i’ve always known i’m a big fan of alone time

The most evil person you know is posting about being a people pleaser
