“Our brains were two million years in the making. That long, slow accretion doubled our cranial capacity. And the first thing we did with it was say thank you. We drew the megafauna and the megafemales, sculpted and carved them. The oldest known figurative sculpture is the Goddess of Hohle Fels, and 40,000 years ago someone spent hundreds of hours carving Her. There is no mystery here, not to me: the animals and the women gave us life. Of course they were our first, endless art project. Awe and thanksgiving are built into us, body and brain. Once upon a time, we knew we were alive. And it was good. 

And now we leave the realm of miracles and enter hell. 

Patriarchy is the ruling religion of the planet. It comes in variations―some old, some new, some ecclesiastical, some secular. But at bottom, they are all necrophilic. Erich Fromm describes necrophilia as “the passion to transform that which is alive into something unalive; to destroy for the sake of destruction; the exclusive interest in all that is purely mechanical.” In this religion, the worst sin is being alive, and the carriers of that sin are female. Under patriarchy, the female body is loathsome; its life-giving fat-cells vilified; its generative organs despised. Its natural condition is always ridiculed: normal feet must be turned into four-inch stubs; rib cages must be crushed into collapse; breasts are varyingly too big or too small or excised entirely. That this inflicts pain―if not constant agony―is not peripheral to these practices. It’s central. When she suffers, she is made obedient.” 

― Lierre Keith, ‘The Girls and the Grasses’

There's no time to explain we have to sync our menstrual cycles.... quickly!

not to be intrusive but did you get vaccinated? longer/heavier periods are a newly noted side effect. good luck

t. also becoming the joker

I got the 2nd shot yesterday and I’d already had my period for 8 days. I posted about how I felt sick on fb and a friend of mine said they got a 19 day period after 2nd shot. I am going to require a blood transfusion. RIP

Leave Frida the fuck alone.

They seriously think that all GNC females must be non-binary or trans. They seriously think that being ‘masculine’/GNC makes a woman less female. They hate gender nonconforming women so much it’s insane.

News flash: A non-feminine woman is still a woman.

being a girl and hitting puberty is so traumatic. you go from being a genderless little free thing to being hit with shaving and makeup and growing breasts and skincare and menstruation and suddenly being sexualised when like a few years ago you could take your shirt off to play in the stream and trade yugioh cards with the boys and come home covered in mud and not even think about it. and then you spend years hating being a girl and hating everything puberty did to you and wishing you could be a boy or be completely genderless again and it takes you Many years to come to terms with yourself Or you simply try to Lean In to everything and do makeup tutorials on YouTube and claim it’s for fun. like how can this be treated as normal

HAPPY Mother’s Day to my 420 moms ✨✨✨

Both men who claim womanhood, both clearly quite oblivious to what they've been doing to women and the women's movement.

on Facebook I'm in a few history meme groups (mostly ancient history but sometimes there are a few medieval or even modern memes) and I just exited the fuck out of one that posted this and got predominantly laugh reacts:

if anything this just reinforces for me how much porn is a gleeful expression of dominance through violence and destruction, and just like Ortner said in 1974, male continues to be conflated with domination and female with submission that maps onto Victor and Victim. "our team fucked yours", "did that exam take you out for dinner before it fucked you", it's the same joke constructed from a reference to pornhub and those same roles of dominance and submission expressed sexually.

anyway, nothing new since Rome. Check out “Gender, Sex, and the Domestication of the Empire in Art of the Augustan Age” by Ramsby and Severy-Hoven (2007) for a bunch of amazing examples of this in Roman art.

Calling a canon bisexual woman a lesbian becuase she has a female love interest or is in a wlw relationship is bisexual erasure and biphobic!!!!

Women + animals are not commodities for your consumption

Veganism 🤝 Feminism

"humans are carnivores, I like the way it tastes"

"it's my sexual attraction, I like the way it looks"

AKA I'm not consciously choosing what I consume because my momentary pleasure is more important than other beings lives + my own wellbeing

Meat/porn

The commodification of animal and human flesh for profit

Succumb to the algorithms and products which take advantage of your most base desires (sex, food) in order to generate profit by exploiting your attention AND the bodies of women/animals

Consume animal flesh and give yourself physical health problems

Consume porn and give yourself mental, sexual and relationship problems

Eating meat/consuming porn (includes hypersexualised usually photoshopped imagery of women anywhere) will degrade your holistic wellbeing while lining the pockets of exploitative industry CEOs

Keep telling yourself it's all okay and ignoring where your food/porn is coming from and the destruction its causing to our environment and selves

Not to mention how much suffering and cruelty is in both the meat and porn industry

The women you jack off to who are being raped on film are also drugged up and have their bodies used and abused for the temporary sense pleasure of the consumer (like the animals)

But milk isn't as bad? But women who choose to do it isn't as unethical? Although we still need to kill baby calves and the budding self worth of young girls in order to mass produce these products

We still need to drive women towards expensive, painful and unnecessary plastic surgery so they can have a career in being sexualised (yass Queen)

Again these products are just designed in every way to profit off of your mindless purchasing/scrolling/clicking/consuming

"But I'm a meat eater/I'm a red blooded male!! I can't change!"

You just don't want to because you care more about your own pleasure than creating a better world, for yourself and others

But feel free to choose to allow yourself to be conditioned into believing its okay to view women as sex objects and meat as normal food

Everyone else does it so it must be okay 😊

Yeah, sure you love animals... I'm totally convinced you see women as full human beings... Even though you've been conditioned your whole life to see them both as meat for your consumption 😂

"the animals have a great life on the farm" "the women choose it so they must love it"

Whatever you need to tell yourself to feel better about your choices! I'm sure the little girls and rape victims of the sex industry felt so empowered when they were being bought and sold, so we could all accept it, see how profitable it is and continue to create/consume porn

Im sure you think that women feel totally unpressured into careers in the sex industry, it's not like we normalised hypersexualisation of women for time untold and made women feel as if their sexuality/bodies are their only source of value

Im sure the animals you ate were totally happy to march to their deaths and be gassed/drowned/shot etc because the gates they were locked in their whole lives didn't lead anywhere else

Yeah, carry on...

Woman doing the cleaning and cooking in an advert on TV ? Woah that’s so sexist and degrading and will influence people and reinforce gender roles and woah imagery in adverts can have a powerful impact we must protest this ! First page on pornhub : «Daddy fucks daughter while mom is out», «Sluts destroyed and drink piss», «Teaching a whore a lesson», «Black cunt dominated by white dick», «Petite teen used and abused», woah, this is totally cool, sexy and liberating, nothing wrong with this, this has no effect whatsoever on viewers, the brain becomes suddenly immune, no negative influence on how men treat women, anyway why are you such a prude you need to get fucked heyyy
