The idea that radical feminism is just for white women and that all radical feminists talk about is white women is so laughable to me. I hate to break it to these people but equating the idea of a fight for gender equality with white western culture and labelling the misogynistic elements of non western cultures as progressive and based is actually so harmful. I care about all women, I’m not going to turn a blind eye to women of colour being oppressed by their own cultures out of fear of being labelled a racist sorry.

Medical misogyny is really crazy because what do you mean that we only researched the full structure of the clitoris in 2005.

Also wdym female genital changes that occur during puberty aren’t taught in schools… and in medical spaces chopping off labia minora is deemed as “rejuvenating”.

I support sex workers, not sex work, in much the same way that I support veterans, not war.

the Johnny Depp trial genuinely did set back womens rights in such a specific way, I was someone who said "surely this one trial can't do that" and I will admit, again, that I was wrong. you cannot tell me that Diddy getting off isn't a direct result of our culture deciding to side with known predators & rapists when posing as a society that protects women from criminals. not only does the United States NOT protect women from predators, they protect the predators from the women who try to speak out.

fuck everyone who has supported men like Johnny Depp, Marilyn Manson, Diddy, Brad Pitt, and Jonathan Majors.

am i crazy or is being “trans-masc” lowkey misogynistic?😭

isn’t being “trans masc” implying that if you’re masculine you’re not a woman? and thereby implying that to be a woman is to be feminine?

“gender is so fun to play around with and be silly with!” okay cool personally i’m not having fun with a construct that has oppressed women & girls for all of its existence

“Think of all the women you know who will not allow themselves to be seen without makeup. I often wonder how they feel about themselves at night when they are climbing into bed with intimate partners. Are they overwhelmed with secret shame that someone sees them as they really are? Or do they sleep with rage that who they really are can be celebrated or cared for only in secret?”

- Belle Hooks (Communion: The Female Search For Love)
