@nekuro9 molding yourself is possible by going to the gym. Not using up taxpayers money for delusions.

And you clearly don't know what loving yourself means. No one in the TQ alphabet+ community does

When advertisements for laser hair removal are like "Never shave again!" and I'm like... You literally do not have to shave ever. Here's my secret to never having to shave again:

THROW OUT YOUR RAZORS

[radi-cali]

Stop raising your daughters to be damsels in distress.

It's the parent's fault for teaching her to prioritize her looks, putting her in sandals in the rain, and raising her different than your son.

RAISE YOUR DAUGHTERS AND SONS THE SAME. Gender roles start before conception when you choose to buy your female fetus bows and tell her as a newborn how pretty she is, versus buying your male fetus sensible shit like teething rings and telling him as a newborn how tough he is.

I'm sick of seeing girls call themselves princesses and being groomed to be pathetic and 100% dependent on males.

Women, don’t be soft.

In a world where men are the most dangerous risk to women, and said men want women who are styled in the patriarchy’s costume, feminists must reject this costume!

We must refuse to be soft. Refuse to be shy. Refuse to be quiet, over accommodating, cute, seductive, small. It’s only logical: don’t be what men want women to be. Don’t give them the satisfaction or opportunity. Don’t let men win. You must be tough, independent, loud, ugly, mean. Command your space.

Comic I made out of a tumblr post of mine that went viral. (Christians keep your grubby little hands off if it. It doesn’t mean what you think it means.) this will go into Backbone 8 and I’m trying to get into making more comics with the help of a book that teaches you how to draw clothes.

Media who have succesful representation of women must always add something to temper it .As in movies , the strong female caracter is always sexualized and portrayed as a sex object , to temper the effect on women , who will associate self-degradation and sexualization as something empowering for example .

Oh well, today is male entitlement day, it seems. Sure, get surgeries and take the place of natural women and reap the money out of it. (I can confirm that France 3 Region is a legit information website btw)

Beauty contests should die anyway, since they're the most basic patriarchy in action, but yeah, now males will make women even more insecure...

I swear today's Reddit scrolling makes me want to peak another time.

ETA :

Roughly (not a good translator) : "Last year, the student decided to sign in the official contest of Haute-Vienne. [As to] boost her self confidence, make her family proud and to prove the people who mocked her wrong...there are many reasons."

Quote : <<I wanted to be able to tell myself that I am a young woman. I can be pretty, desired, be liked>>

Quote 2 : <<Among all the [economical?] partners, some people aren't accepting, Lara says. At the end of the day, it's good to force things. To show that a trans woman can be miss or dauphine. Because during the contest, some parents complain to the president. Thankfully, the committee defended me. I heard someone say "Ah, but that's a man" and I wanted to tell him "yeah and the man is first dauphine". We need to stop with taboos and nastiness. We need to teach values of tolerance and acceptance>>

This make me sick. This male self-id as a man right there and say we need to force things and force women to accept that else they're intolerant. Male thinking 101.

ETA 2 : Oh and btw, laser hair removal is at least partially refunded *by society/health care* in France. Too bad for the real females contestants who have to pay their own shaving I guess (you know, because natural body hair is too gross for patriarchy to handle as part of straight beauty standards)

The Russian Republic,[f] referred to as the Russian Democratic Federative Republic[g] in the 1918 Constitution, was a short-lived state which controlled, de jure, the territory of the former Russian Empire after its proclamation by the Russian Provisional Government on 1 September (14 September, N.S.Tooltip New Style) 1917 in a decree signed by Alexander Kerensky as Minister-Chairman and Alexander Zarudny as Minister of Justice.[1]

The government of the Russian Republic was dissolved after the Bolsheviks seized power by force on 7 November 1917. Nonetheless, a partially democratic election of the Constituent Assembly still took place later in November. On 18 January 1918, this assembly issued a decree, proclaiming Russia a democratic federal republic, but had also been dissolved by the Bolsheviks on the next day after the proclamation.[2]

The Bolsheviks also used the name "Russian Republic" until the official name "Russian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic" was adopted in the Constitution of July 1918. The term is sometimes used erroneously for the period between the abdication of the Emperor Nicholas II on 3 March 1917 (16 March, N.S.) and the declaration of the Republic in September. However, during that period the status of the Russian political system was unresolved, left up to be decided by a future elected Constituent Assembly.[3]

Beauty culture is contributing to the surrogacy industry.

More and more wealthy women indulged in beauty culture are considering surrogacy their only option for childbearing. These are women who want to be mothers, want to have biological offspring, but don’t want to “ruin their bodies”. Instead, they’d pay to have IVF done with a surrogate mother as the baby machine.

Why is this so normalized? Women dehumanize our own! Beauty indulgers regard their bodies as decor, hoping the poorer women won’t hold as much value to their bodies/lives in exchange for a sum if money.

If men want a community where its just men and they hate on women im entirely fine with that because thats essentially what most of us do/want, but the majority of mysoginists hate/kill/rape/assault/degrade women while being surrounded by them. While seeking a wife, having a daughter, a mother. While going out and making women feel unsafe, killing them, raping them. They hate women yet they want to be around women.

This is the same argument I use when people try to compare female seperatism and misandry with "what men are doing right now". Name one woman who has killed a man for no other reason but being a man. No female seperatist that hates on men while seeking one out.

My issue is that men hate us. They kill us and they rape us and they put us down and oppress us and they still want us around. I would love male seperatism, if they wanted to stay on their own and marry eachother and co exist and hate on women from afar, i would love that.

They dont. They want us to know and they want us to hurt.

Women are taught to maintain beauty, humility, and purity. When she defies this, she has lost her mind. What if we held men to the same standards?

Anyone who contributed to the zine can contact me for a pdf version. I bought a new printer hoping that I could get things moving again, but it’s not working, and I can’t keep spending my days troubleshooting it. I’ve lost an insane amount of money trying to get this to work. Sorry I can’t get you guys physical copies, but feel free to print as many as you want. This is most likely our last edition of Backbone due to printing and personal issues. Message me.
