My “all rich people are bad” brother would lose his fucking mind if I said “All men, including you”.
“Errr I don’t exploit you”, oh but when I had to walk to school in a dense black abaya and long hijab under the sweltering heat and you walked alongside me in your loose dress shirt, your privileged ass never showed any meaningful sympathy?
When you got to play sports outside all day but we girls couldn’t because of our restrictive wear and fear of male discrimination and sexual harassment, was it not your privileged ass that didn’t mind?
When we went to the beach and or swimming pools, it wasn’t you that only wore shorts swimming comfortably while I was covered head to toe in my burkini, still being leered at by the creep across the pool so I couldn’t even enjoy myself?
When our male cousin lived with us during the summer, was it not us girls that had to dress modestly and ‘behave’ in our own fucking homes while you played video games shirtless?
When our baby brother was growing up, was it not you that never changed his diaper once in your fucking life despite us being only a year apart in age?
When you started studying Islam just like me, was it not you that accused me of being blasphemous when I brought up concerns about sexism?
You saw obvious discrimination, you experienced privileges and benefitted, and you never once helped. I don’t care that you were ‘nice’ to me and joked around with me and hung out with me sometimes— the structure of inequality that you never cared to address is clear in my mind.
All men, INCLUDING YOU.

I wish all men a very cope and seethe forever. Maybe you should work harder have u ever thought of that??
when people say that women in the entertainment industry who are sexualised are expressing their own sexuality, i often think of these youtube videos that came out when i was a teenager from the buzzfeed try guys of all people
in the first one, they get styled and photoshopped the way male celebrities do, and in the second they are styled, posed and photoshopped like female celebrities
their comments are surprisingly insightful
"there was nothing human about that, i was just an object"
"in an effort to photoshop you more to female standards, your look has gone from 'i will either murder or fuck you' to 'wont you please come fuck me?'"
when women are styled this way, they aren't expressing their own desire, they're embodying cultural stereotypes that say women don't have their own sexuality, they are objects for men to project their own sexuality onto. and when male sexuality is caught up in ideas of dominance and conquest, performing for the male gaze becomes consistently degrading
reminder that lesbians are NOT more violent than men and we don't have the highest domestic violence rates. i wish people (mostly men) would stop deliberately misconstruing this
Men are still more likely to be violent towards you than women are, no matter how much you hate women
Meanwhile a society without women: no men

r/womenSupportsMisogyny -> 188k members. "If you are into female inferiority and love women who supports it you are in the right place." [sic]
r/FemaleInferiorityCap -> 257k members. "Here you can post captions about incest, raceplay, rough and forced sex, humiliation and degradation. As long as they comply with the main theme of the sub. Keeping women in a position of objectification, sexualization, and inferiority."

r/FaceofPain -> 255k members. "According to some Pornhub stats many users focus on the women's face during sex scenes, we do the same here. There is a little bit of "face of pain" in all mainstream porn."
This is disgusting and these subreddits should all be banned.
"...who want nothing from you..."
But, they want everything from you. They want unrestricted unquestioned access to exclusive female & gay male spaces... they want to control how others refer to & perceive them... they want complete commodification of the language on how we talk about biological sex... and they want silence, punishment, & ostracisation for those who disagree with them in any capacity.
Of course we can empathise with the trans struggle & be respectful of medial things like an individual's pronouns & making sure all people have a seat at the metaphorical table, but when we're called "transphobic" or "fascist" for saying biological sex is real, women face sex-based oppression, and that lesbians & gay men aren't interested in the opposite sex, my respect has its limits. You will not run around screaming transphobia while being misogynistic & homophobic at the same time.
