#and i can't tell if it's just feminism as in women are more than housewives etc. or if it's actually no i am genderless

[leaving-fragments]

surely having a dream where i'm surrounded by beautiful trans people and i myself am a genderless being who can fly is not a sign, right

My Top 10 favorite South Park characters

Also known as the top 10 best women, bc of course from a writing standpoint the boys are written with much better understanding, but these are my top 10 characters I'd like to see more of 😊 10. Maggie Yates Ok, so the reasoning is that she's an inspiration to her husband, but she also deserves much better than him. She's better than him even in his hobbies and his job, still her fate is to be the stay-at-home housewife which i find realistic, as a lot of talented women end up this way. I'd like to see her come into her own, but that's hardly Trey's intention with the character. She'll stay our relatable housewife.

9. Sheila Broflovski In the early days of the fandom, especially because of the movie, people see her as the villain. However she is one of the best mothers in the show, even if she's overprotective helicopter parent, her kids are some of the best, and we all know it's not her husband's doing. As you can tell, I especially enjoy her Jersey backstory and the ways she overcame her past and protects her friends now.

8. Sharon Marsh She is the main example of a wife trapped in an awful marriage, which is pretty common in real life. Honestly, when she made an OnlyFans, I was like, go girl! Still, she loves and protects her children even from their father, I'd say considering the circumstances she's doing a very good job at that.

7. Laura Tucker Remember The Magic Bush? She was so real for that. She deserves any recognition and appreciation she gets for being a wonderful wife, mother and woman while being true to herself.

6. Mrs. Helen Tweak TBH For recency bias I might put her in the number four spot, since I underestimated her pretty much all these years. A month before she would be in the place of Maggie as another housewife type, but her performance in The End of Obesity was incredible, her new hair and attitude was fresh and energetic, I'M happy for her finding her independence seemengly away from her restricting husband. Can't wait to see more of her in the future! And also planning to review her past episodes in a new light after the fact.

5. Principal Victoria I wish there were a few more episodes of her even after she is not a principal anymore. She is a strong woman in her own right, her speech in Breast Cancer Show Ever alone earns her a spot on this list.

4. Liane Cartman So the fact about Liane is... She isn't as horrible as a mother as the problems with her child. She can't deal with him that's for sure, but her son is bad on levels she couldn't even imagine. She knows he is uncontrollable and still tries her hardest as a single mother to help him. As a person she is kind and sweet who doesn't deserve this much struggle and her character development over the years has been outstanding.

3. Mayor McDaniels South Park has too few major female characters. Which Trey and Matt try to compensate sometimes, and one of their greatest decisions in the 90s was that the mayor of the titular town would be a woman. She is smart, hard-working and quite possibly living through a rich emotional journey as alluded to in Tweek x Craig, with her possible deceased lover. She also has enough flaws to be funny, like her being vain and dismissive of her town sometimes.

2. Strong Woman She is feminism personified, how could I not love her? And also... Her looks and personality remind me one of my real life heroes, a teacher (the best teacher I ever had -academically speaking as well, no less- ) who introduced me to everything I stand for. I wish I could tell her how much that meant to me, I usually get reminded her through this character. Also, just in-story she is still a great teacher and her dynamic with PC Principal is flawless.

1. Harriet Biggle Not only my favorite character of the whole show, but a severly underrated one as well. She’s like a Desperate Housewives character (specifically a lot like Martha Huber) and she steals every scene she’s in, when she invites Sharon to a “school shooting”, tries to bribe the boys with video games and tries to shoot Eric in the realtor episode all while speaking in a melodic voice never fails to make me laugh. She also has an adopted son who she cares for, so we know she has a lot of heart, still, she has blatant fatphobia which makes her even funnier, I always hope she gets more focus, and am sick of how underappreciated she is as a character.

"female" and "male" become as meaningless as "floopdiloop" without a real definition. we need these terms to mean something because they denote oppressed and oppressor classes along the axis of sexism. the immutable traits these words describe are the traits for which women (by which I mean female humans) have been oppressed worldwide for all of human history. if "woman" means nothing, we have no language to describe ourselves as a marginalised group fighting for our rights and safety. the only reason you think it's harmless for a man to identify as a woman is because you don't truly believe women are oppressed. no one would have to explain to you why a white person can't identify as a black person and then say they're the most oppressed type of black person because no one actually sees them as black and because they're not getting access to resources specifically reserved for black people. the fact that a man can perform femininity and y'all will jump to say that makes him just as– if not more– oppressed for being a woman as the women who are groomed on the basis of their female sex from the second they're born, as the women in menstrual huts, as the women attacked with acid, as the women forced to carry their rapists' babies to term, as the women denied jobs on the assumption they'll later leave to be homemakers or on the assumption that they're unqualified because they're female, as the women groomed into being housewives for men much older than them specifically because of their perceived female fertility.... I could go on forever because that's how fucking infinite the list of sex-specific issues ""AFAB""s face on the basis of being ""AFAB"". there is a millennia-old history of misogyny and it is demonstrably (and obviously!!) sex-based. What trait are women oppressed for if not their sex? with your airy bullshit non-definition of womanhood, how do the oppressor class (men) even tell whom to oppress? if "woman" is so internally self defined and meaningless, how did they know whom to deny the vote? who couldn't open a bank account? whom to forcibly impregnate? whom to marry off with a dowry? this so-open-minded-your-brain-falls-out lack of critical thought from libfem "activism" makes it seem like people are oppressed for wanting to perform femininity as though femininity itself isn't something which is artificially superimposed through intense socialisation of most "AFAB"s from birth. women weren't denied the vote because they were the ones in skirts, they were denied the vote and restricted to skirts because they were female. "a woman is anyone who identified as a woman is a woman is a woman is a woman" is tautological empty nothingness on par with the meaningless "floopdiloop"; it is not progressive and it is actively hindering feminism's progress.

literally how ridiculous their 'definitions' of womanhood are

so again: define woman.

good thing I've never killed a trans person then
