#down with the patriarchy

[trans-girl-azzi]

Be punk.

Help an old lady carry her groceries.

Donate to local charities.

Help out at a soup kitchen.

Be nice to animals.

Excerpt from Dr Charlotte Proudman’s article via the Independent “Being a radical feminist means being a trans ally at the same time”

I really hope all women who still buy into the trans nonsense wake up.

Trans people hate feminism. Trans people hate women. By definition.

It's ridiculous that in fiction, women are criticized for being angry and bitter and brutal and exhibiting typical masculine traits that would be praised in a man (cough Nesta cough), but they'll also criticize a woman for being gentle and refined and emotionally balanced and exhibiting typical feminine traits by calling them "useless" with "no personality" (cough Elain cough). Reflective of how women are treated in real life. Called selfish for wanting a full time job while also called useless when they choose to stay at home and look after the house. Women can't win here. #patriarchy

Politics are so stupid, like, what do you mean you won’t give rights, that YOU made up by the way, to HALF of the population??? The one that MADE the population??? That have been fighting for YEARS??? And have 100% CENTURIES of PROOF of their OPPRESSION??? Buddy, it’s a yes or no question and the answer is yes

Like, do you want to vote for a 3x war criminal idiot? Or just a regular idiot?

“ oh these people deserve it because blah blah blah “ I literally do not care, how can you LOOK at another HUMAN BEING and not see a HUMAN BEING???

“ Oh were just gonna let these people legally kill and oppress other people” Because??? Because why???

“ Women aren’t allowed to have abortions “ Why? Because you said so??? Aren’t you ALL men who will never be effected by the laws you pass??? Buddy, this isn’t kindergarten, lets be serious about this

Why are you letting 172 old men that look like wet shrimp chips tell you what to do??? Like literally thats just not the logical answer

It so odd that the same people making a fuss about “male loneliness” are the same people who defend the patriarchy which makes it so that men can’t express love to each other without people calling it romantic

Huh so weird

4b(?) Movement BUT it's:

- No sex with Men who believe they have control over women's rights (there also needs to be proof of a recent STD/STI check as well as any implanted birth control. And proof of any vasectomy or hysterectomy)

- No giving birth to children with Men who don't believe in access to all abortions and/or other life-saving procedures (not just "exceptions")

- No dating Men who think they are above us and decide how we live

- No marrying Men who use marriage as a way to control us and our decisions

Most people in the LGBTQ+ Community are exempt because they generally actually care about the rights of people (with or without uteruses) and telling the patriarchy to fuck off

Disclaimer:

I understand several people don't agree with abortions outside of exceptions, and they are free to uphold those personal beliefs

I understand people are wanting children/have been trying for children and won't give up that opportunity and I support that

I understand there are white cisgendered heterosexual men who support the women not only in their lives but around the world

I understand that getting married to someone you love is a right that should not be infringed upon

Hold your fellow humans accountable for their actions. Hold men (derogatory) accountable for their actions and threats.

✨️ Don't let a misogynistic shitstain be the center of your life ✨️

“I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest” (Rev. 6 ; 1-8 NIV)

“And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.”

Conquest / War / Famine / Death

Hear me out!

Genderessentialism towards men is bad because it's genderessentialism

Forget how it promotes patriarchy, is sexist towards men, is inherently transphobic and intersexist, harms young men exploring their identities, creates a hostile environment between the binary genders, and is I dunno bad.

It's bad overall because it's genderessentialism

Started watching the Musketeers (2014, on Prime) recently bc I had a lot of free time on a roadtrip across the US. I wasn't sure if I was gonna like it- I love it period-pieces/historical stuff, but I tend to unintentionally have a specific taste in stuff that I'll continue watching on my own time.

But I am not exaggerating when I say that I don't have the words to convey just how much I absolutely love the show.

I'll probably bullet-list my favourite bits about it some other day, but I'm watching season 1 again, and I thought i should share my favourite line from the show.

Context: a woman (Comtesse) who advocates for women's education is being put on trial bc 17th France has a toxic patriarchy, but it particularly stems from the King's advisor (played by Peter Capaldi- I know! : D ) in this show. The Queen of France comes in right as the woman is sentenced to death for "being a witch and consorting with the devil", and essentially pardons her.

Comtesse stands to leave the court, and looks the king's advisor directly in the eye.

Comtesse: I have never consorted with the Devil unti this moment. I am looking at him.

And then- completely outside of Comtesse, the king's advisor starts choking on poison lol

"Never in history has violence been initiated by the oppressed. How could they be the initiators, if they themselves are the result of violence? How could they be the sponsors fo something whose objective inauguration called forth their existence as oppressed? There would be no oppressed had there been no prior situation of violence to establish their subjugation." - Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed.
