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

society and makeup companies to women at all times: you have to wear makeup, like you literally have to or else you look like a corpse, so wear it you fucking corpse. aren't you terrified of getting old? aren't you insecure about your little blemishes? we have the $80 solution.

someone online: you don't have to wear makeup

someone else in response, without fail, every single time: yeah but it's okay if you want to wear makeup :). I mean, it's a personal choice, which involves no coercion from the constant social pressures that dictate how women should present themselves, so go ahead! Don't let mean people bully you into thinking it's okay to have flaws in your skin.

And the worst part is, nothing is being done because for some reason the takeaway from Adolescence and all this bs in general is “omg our darling boys are suffering so much”. Ah yes, the boys are the victims here. Not the female classmates they’re harassing, assaulting and raping but the boys are the ones suffering 🙄 like wtffffffrrfffffffff why is it impossible for people to just focus on girls for once

I've seen a lot about the show Adolescence. I do plan on watching it, but it's been getting me thinking about my time as a teacher. I've encountered a few alarming behaviors in young boys that the administration and parents ignored. I've had a young 6th-grade boy literally stand in front of a girl's desk and tell her he'd rape her. Nothing happened after I wrote a referral. Not even a class switch. I've had a young boy send naked pictures of a random man to a young girl. When she screenshot it, he threatened to "beat her ass." I've had young boys call me a bitch and disrespect me to my face. Not to mention the rise of incel lingo becoming popularized as well. I didn't even notice until I started teaching 6th graders that "looksmaxxkng" and other incel languages were starting to become normal.

What does that tell young girls? When they feel uncomfortable or speak up, no one will do anything about it. The administrators don't help, and the boy's parents won't either. As a teacher, I could have only done so much and followed the needed protocols. If every teacher didn't fill out a specific form, then nothing would get done. We needed months of documentation to even remove a kid from one class. The school system is a mess and frankly unsafe at times.

Excluding the crucial fact that office jobs pay you an income….if staying home to raise children and do chores and bake bread was really so much easier and more joyful than working in an office on some objective level, why aren’t men doing it? Why aren’t they chomping at the bit to be ~leisurely house husbands~ to a working wife? Why aren’t they stepping up to depend solely on someone else’s income in exchange for round-the-clock domestic labor, if it’s really as blissful and their propaganda suggests? Curious.

I don't understand how someone can be so brain dead that they genuinely believe a man paying to use a woman's body is feminist. Like genuinely how did we get here. How is this something that's praised and encouraged. Literally how.

I want to bring back female only housing. Apartment blocks just for women, and hotels, stuff like that. I know this would make a lot of women more comfortable. Also, this isn't even that radical, stuff like used to be pretty common, and it would objectively be good to have female only living spaces.

This isn’t my usual post, but men being so intimidated by women with large dogs that they have to point out ways they can overpower the dog drives me nuts.

I’m a woman, living in a city, and I have a VERY large Shepherd mix I got from the shelter (his name is, in fact, Arthur Morgan, but I digress). He’s got some reactivity we’re working on (not aggression; he just wants to say hi to everyone and gets REALLY frustrated when he can’t. We’re working on it). So we go out early to get his exercise in, training, a hike, a hike, and fetch on a longline.

Today was a hike, and the ladies or AFAB people that have large dogs know it makes you feel so much better doing things alone, hiking, running at night, everything, even if your dog is a huge wuss. So we’re on our hike, having a great time, and we stop at a summit to look at the views and all that, and a man starts commenting on my dog. That’s fine; he’s pretty, he’s big, he looks like what people think wolves look like, so I always get comments on him. He asks me why I wanted a big dog, and I said I grew up with them and loved them and feel safer with one around, and this man goes, “Well, you know he’s not bullet proof right?” Then proceeds to also say, “He’s also not immune to, like, a knife.”

Why that man felt the need to invalidate my very real sense of security with my large dog to feel more in control of the situation, and what made it worse was my dog wasn’t reacting, wasn’t barking, was just staring at him, staring like something was wrong. So safe to say the morning hike ended early, and I came back just fuming at how ridiculous men get when they lose even a sliver of power over women. I know I’m not the only woman with a large dog to hear those kinds of comments, but male fragility never ceases to amaze me.
