The Greatest Skill A Woman Can Learn For Herself Is Self Reliance

TIL feminists in Sweden used to throw Molotov cocktails at porn advertisement cars💀

In the same way that ending slavery didn't have to be good for Whites, ending the Holocaust didn't have to be good for gentiles/people not in concentration camps, legalizing gay marriage didn't have to be good for straights, etc., feminism and women's rights don't have to be good for males in order to be legitimate.

I keep thinking about this and laughing it's like too much for me

I made a post about male suicide a while back and got a lot of shit.

I just wanted to tell you that a friend of mine works for Samaritan health service for their suicide hotline. She told me a 'funny' story.

The majority of her time is spent screening and blocking phone numbers so that the lines are free for people who need help. Why does she have to do this ? Hundreds of times a day men would call up while masturbating, of course they would only stay on the line if the operator was female, which the majority are.

Men have always taken advantage of women's kindness and they always will. It is not our job.

Nightly reminder that JailBait won the best subreddit of 2008, meaning it was the MOST POPULAR subreddit and only eventually got banned years later to save reddit as a whole

Nightly reminder that when men get unlimited access to form a community with no rules, they will push the lack of rules to the depths of hell

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

Well, we have done it. We have reached the peak of societal inceldom and misogyny.

Something something Andrea DWorkin marriage is just marrying your John / private prostitution

This is honestly so fucked and scary and terrifying. And one again, people on social media seem to confuse fetishization with support. “I’m going to block ICE from big baddie Latinas!!!” — this is a direct correlation to shit like this.

I actually feel sick and fearful for any immigrant in the United States anymore. This is a form of human trafficking and we are in fucking danger.

Please boost this.

i think the takes that have gotten me the most hate on here are:

children are people and it’s not appropriate to randomly insult them

smoking etiquette is generally context dependent and “this is rude” isn’t the same as “this is an unforgivable sin”

it’s not women and minorities’ fault that white men become nazis
