Not trying to go on a rant (and yet already ranting) but I’m sick of people faking that “granddaughters of the witches you couldn’t burn” isn’t an AWESOME feminist catchphrase, and branding it as white feminism because “Karen your granny is a christian conservative” like yesss it’s true my granny is a christian conservative but she also secretly had her tubes tied in an illegal clinic because my grandpa was against birth control, and my great-grandma ran away from home at 15 because her parents were against interracial marriage, and my great-great-grandma fled her country because there were no job opportunities for poor women there, and my other grandma also fled her country because her boyfriend tried to force her to have an abortion and she wanted to have her baby, and my mom never married and chose to raise a child on her own, and I am a feminist butch lesbian, and this is what this quote is about, it’s not about your granny being pagan, it’s about valuing your matrilineal lineage of subversive women, even if their subversion was minimal, because they could have been killed or maimed any time by men for not conforming to gender roles even in the slightest way, after all, the witches who indeed were burned were more often than not also just regular, mostly christian conservative, women that somehow pissed off a man

“Queer people need to get weirder-” you can’t handle like. A lesbian.

Just stumbled on to this woman's tiktok about polygamy, and she's spinning it as a good thing because she would have less burden as a wife.

Girl. Where do I start.

I'm so glad being a harry potter adult is banned amongst terminally online nerds could you imagine if they were all open about it like the disney people? like the percy jackson obsessors? insufferable.

Stigma does not kill women in prostitution. Men do.

"Karen" is what liberal men call unsubmissive women instead of "bitch" or "cunt" when they don't wanna lose woke points

the ‘prostitution is good because it means I and other unprostituted women don’t get assaulted as much’ is such a mask off opinion lol. and men have their own version of it, it’s just ‘it’s a place to direct sexual frustration that isn’t at their girlfriend or wife’ etc. it’s so obvious how they see those women
