Honestly, the "gay voice" and the "tranny voice" are both so fucking beautiful and stunning. Frankly, those are the voices I would rather hear than somebody who is complaining about the way queer people exist and speak. Those voices are what I want to hear serenaded to me, to hear express joy and pain and love, and hear exist. Those are the voices that are most gorgeous.

sorry to ramble in your inbox (feel free to ignore this ofc) but you are the only person on my dash being realistic about misogyny rn

I'm so annoyed by the posts like "men are being ignored by women and that's why they aren't supporting us". Because the feminist movement for over a decade has had a focus on supporting men, especially with mental health. And there's a whole month (this month!) that is focused around men's health (mostly physical but with some mental as well). And women are all over the internet encouraging men to do things like go to therapy. The list goes on.

and the fact that they know (or acknowledge) none of that shows how much posturing it all is.

"complete strangers made generalizations I didn't like on the internet so it's their fault I'm a misogynist" I am going to scream.

god i can’t stand how much the feminist movement centers men. I feel like honestly part of the problem is ppl don’t see women as a marginalized group even when women are clearly facing really brutal oppression, bc subconsciously they think that’s how it’s supposed to be.

And like , when they acknowledge women as oppressed, its never acknowledged as being done by men— there’s always some invisible boogeyman doing it: ��the government” or “capitalism” or “society”. All these very vague gender neutral concepts.

The fact that it’s taboo to actually acknowledge women have an oppressor and that oppressor is MEN drives me insane. Among leftist groups it’s at its most hypocritical. They are so clearly able to understand oppression, and the dynamic between oppressed and oppressor…until it’s women. Then suddenly we’re equal apparently.

And that’s something men want, that’s why they push so hard for this narrative that “men’s issues are different but just as bad” (even tho that’s 100% fucking false lmao) because it means that they’re distanced from accountability, and women aren’t suffering anymore than them so really those bitches should just shut up about it.

It’s disgusting and intentional and I encourage any woman reading this to stop caring about “mens rights”. They already have rights.

It’s like, think about how offended ppl were when straight ppl requested their own month. Think about how blatantly racist it sounds when white ppl try to imply they’re oppressed for being white.

now unpack why you don’t feel that way with mennn

some folks are discussing fandom infighting, but I haven’t still seen any examples of wolfwren stans sending hate. I scrolled through every comment on the Ahsoka casts’ posts (yes all of them) and the only hate I saw was homophobia aimed at wolfwren.

does anyone have examples & links to wolfwren fans being toxic? so we as a community can block them + make sure they understand they aren’t welcome in the fandom? I have dozens of tangible examples of the vile hate people have sent to wolfwren stans (x x x) and a long list of transphobes/homophobes if anyone wants a block list.

why are you as a straight man going into confined spaces. what use do you have for entering manholes

[sea-critter]

trying to hold it together but… just read about Nex Benedict (may their memory be a blessing) who was a Native non-binary teen murdered in their high school bathroom in Oklahoma.

thinking of Akira Ross, a Black queer woman murdered in Texas, less than an hour from me.

thinking of all the queer & trans young people in the south who die at the hands of bigots.

just feeling really fucking sad and sick to my stomach.

I just wanted to remind all the homophobes that we can’t “learn to be straight” and we WERE in fact born this way, we didn’t just wake up one day and decide “hmm maybe I’ll be gay for attention and to be not like the other girls” so shut the fuck up!!!

(A little more of a personal experience under the cut, TW: mentions of suicide)

As someone who has in fact experienced hate from my family about being part of the lgbtq community it’s hard and really discouraging to hear comments about how “no one actually likes gay people they just pretend to” or that “gay people need to drop the act and just be normal” and threatening to disown me and saying that I’m going to hell just because of who I love. And this might be a little personal but it’s the reason I tried to off myself twice in middle school FUCKING MIDDLE SCHOOL, no 13 year old should feel the need to off themselves to avoid the hate from family just because they like someone of the same gender. Fuck homophobes.

Two things that are simultaneously true:

1. Gender and sexuality are complex and can be fluid. An identity isn't always fixed and can change with time for many reasons

2. It is not acceptable to force others to change their gender or sexuality and the mantra that they (queer people) can change if they only "try hard" is both cruel and homophobia and/or transphobia

CW: homophobia, sexism, racism, ageism, incest, emotional abuse….

Men have such a victim complex about relationships because of the association of the “nerd” stereotype with maleness. It really has lowered the bar for men so much.

My guy friend was making a joke about how he’s not attractive and supposedly can’t get women. His sister had to remind him that he has slept with multiple women before and has had multiple girlfriends before and has had “friends with benefits” and his longest relationship was over 3years! He was able to get these women in spite of the fact that he clearly has a misogynistic sense of entitlement to women. 🙄

His sister who is more conventionally attractive than him but has still never dated had to remind him of that. 🙄

This man has also:

. Mocked women’s asses for not being big enough

. Made jokes about being entitled to blowjobs

. Mocked women for not giving good enough blowjobs

. Mocked women’s vaginas for not being good enough (especially older women)

. Publicly shamed, blamed, and guilt tripped a woman who rejected him for his suicide attempt (common manipulation tactic)

. Publicly shamed and guilt tripped his ex girlfriend in the middle of game night because she hadn’t sent him nudes yet! 🙄

. Uses misogynistic slurs as long as they include “white” in front of them

. Laughs at rape scenes in movies

. Makes incest and beastiality jokes about the south and mocks southern accents (he is from TN)

. Makes homophobic jokes about politicians he doesn’t like being closeted gay (he is straight)

. Makes racist jokes about black penises (he’s white)

. Has a misogynistic homophobic lesbian fetish

Yet he still has more sexual and romantic experience than me. So he’s basically a typical straight male. 🙄

His name is William Thomas Lasley and he lives in Hermitage TN

Someone needs to write "5 times patpran thought korn & wai were together + 1 time they realized they were wrong" and it's just korn and wai doing increasingly sussy things but it turns out they really are just homies who kiss the homies goodnight. They go get tested for stds together. They pretend to be dating to get discounts at restaurants. Etc. In the end it's revealed that they actually had sex one time but neither of them rly liked it and that's how they know they're not gay

[girlbob-boypants]

Hi gays! Happy pride! To celebrate we turned the recently outed lesbian character into a fucking demon that costs $10 :)
