every so often the discourse comes around again that basically boils down to âis it feminist for a woman to want men to be attracted to herâ and itâs like. no, itâs not. itâs also not anti feminist. itâs not relevant. itâs nothing. a woman wanting to have sex with men has nothing to do with feminism. being a lesbian or celibate is not âmore feministâ than being a straight woman. the point was always âwomen should not have to dress in a way that is attractive to men solely in order to be acknowledged by them at allâ not âwomen should never dress in a way that is attractive to men for any reason.â sometimes a woman wants men to want to have sex with her. thatâs not anti feminist. thatâs average. itâs also not feminist just because itâs her choice to do it. it is not related. feminism is about womenâs human rights. that doesnât mean itâs a feminist act every time a woman makes a choice.

its rly rly funny when somebody starts their argumentt with "...as a small artist". i thought art came free with being a human? i thought we were all artists? ultimately you're bragging about (1) being able to do something anybody can do and (2) not being very good at it

it is not "the cycle of abuse" it is the structural oppression of children by their parents âď¸

I lack some fundamental traits neccesary for real Fandom brain I think. The idea of being exclusively obsessed with repeatedly rereading(watching, playing, etc) one series until I know every aspect of it intimately is just very foreign to me. There's so much other stuff out there!

I wish I could sit down every trans person still holding the line on "let cis men be feminine without pressuring them to transition!" and ask them to point me to a single real-world instance of any actual cis man being pressured to transition to such an extent that it came anywhere close to the pressure to stay cisgender
For that matter, I'd like to ask them to show me any real-world instance of people suggesting transition to any cis man "just because he enjoys being feminine", because in my experience very few transfems will even joke about a guy being an egg (except in retrospect) until after he's started openly expressing a deep discontentment with his status as a man and an atypical fondness for and elevation of women

most of the time everything sucks but when the sky is blanketed in dark blue-grey clouds after heavy raining and the sun starts to peek through the clouds so that the tops of trees glint pale green and every white structure is starkly, blindingly silhouetted against the sky iâm ok.
