Men when women demand legal abortion: well you should've known that sex leads to pregnancy, you stupid slut. Now it's your responsibility to give birth. You knew. You must be responsible for your actions.

Men when they are legally required to give child support:

Every time [woman] behaves like a human being, she is declared to be identifying with the male.

Queen just accidentally implied that trans women are straight men pretending to be lesbians lmao

I love the malding that ensues when a woman mimics transbian behavior

christianity will be like, nooo, don't worship life-giving nature, thousand  year old trees or mountains or sources of clean water or animals that existed long before us, or women who created all human life on earth, those are just resources! Don't learn about the medicinal plants or how to safely deliver children and cure women's diseases, that's devil's business!

... this m*n we nailed we sadistically nailed on a stick and let slowly die, tho... thats D I V I N E

A trend I notice with radical feminist writers is how blunt and direct they are, which makes them easy to read. Valerie Solanas, Andrea Dworkin, Gail Dines--all of them cut straight to the point. Meanwhile, "queer theory" authors like Judith Butler and Michel Foucault are famously dense, obscure, and no one can ever agree on what their point is.

I see people talk about how there's an anti-intellectual backlash happening on the Left, but I think it's worse than that--it's not just that people are discrediting academics and research, they're discrediting common sense. It's common sense to say that a man who orgasms to the thought of women in pain is a misogynist. It's common sense to say that sex that is meant to hurt and degrade someone is not good sex. It's common sense to say that a man is not a woman.

And I think that's why radical feminist authors come across as blunt speakers--because they aren't intellectualizing the obvious, they're stating it. Meanwhile, the work of Butler and Foucault obscures reality as much as possible (oh sorry-- "problematizes" reality as much as possible).

I wish the people who accuse radical feminists of having dog whistles would actually read radical feminist literature and see how blunt the writing is--absolutely nothing has a double meaning or an implied meaning. Everything is direct.

I can’t believe a bunch of men were like “actually, women have it easier when it comes to mental health because everyone already assumes you are weak, irrational, crazy, and stupid 🥺” and a significant amount of feminists were like oh shit good point

I'm trying to understand why feminism is hated by other women. Most of them say "I'm not feminist because I want equality and not women above men". They care more about men than us.

They care more about the same people who harass, rape and kill women just because they (we) exist.

Emma Watson immediately jumped on the Rowling hate train, and proceeded to make it her personality in the years since. Even declining to talk about her in interviews, saying “we’re not going to talk about that woman”.

But did she ever speak up about Iran? Did she ever even put out one of her “solidarity” posts for the women of Iran?

And what did Rowling say about Iran? 🤔

And how did TRAs respond?

Y’all will make any women’s issue about trans people instead.

Just say you’re a western performative activist and move on.
