the way she explains it... so powerful and heartbreaking

Seeing women speaking up and defending Amber Heard makes me feel like there's hope. And I'm so glad she's doing it on a platform like tiktok, where there has been an insane amount of pro-Depp propaganda

Whenever men quit porn, they all have the same reason: it was hurting their penis.

You can look it up anywhere, and the result is the same. They either get erectile dysfunction or are scared of getting it and decide to quit.

And that’s their only reason.

They don’t care that porn is built on the collective suffering of women. How it hypersexualizes and exploits us. They don’t take the time to acknowledge that the woman they were perfectly happy and comfortable masturbating to was a victim of human trafficking. They don’t see how harmful it is for women to be viewed as porn categories (brunette, Asian, milf). They don’t care about the horrible relationship dynamics they are sexualizing and fetishizing (stepmom, stepsis, teacher x student, incest, etc)(and don’t even get me started on “barely legal”. men truly are pigs and the scum of the earth). They don’t care that they supported sketchy as hell companies. They don’t care about anyone but themselves.

They don’t listen to us when we tell them that what they watch and support is hurting us. They call us “prudes” and laugh at us for not partaking in their porn.

And then when they finally realize their poor little peepee is not working anymore because it got death gripped to all hell and back, then is when they finally decide to do something about it.

Men are selfish and cruel creatures. They get their pleasure from women’s pain and when the consequences of their actions finally catch up to them, only then do they stop.

It infuriates me to no end. It really hurts to realize how disgusting and low men are. And then they get fucking praised for doing the absolute minimum (not watching porn) for selfish reasons.

Also to the women who support this shit. Please snap out of it. It doesn’t benefit you in anyway. I was once like you, but I learned the truth and stopped. (Yes it’s true, I had aligned myself with the liberal feminist agenda long ago before finding radical feminism). However, if you know it is hurting your fellow sisters and you do nothing to stop it, you are siding with the enemy.

Not to mention how obviously fake and staged it all is. The woman’s moans are always so fucking fake and screamy. (Not saying this as a dig to the women in the videos, but just to highlight how porn is all just a shitty performance put on for even shittier men who lap it up like dogs). How anyone can get turned on by that, I have NO clue.

Nah I can easily clock those three. First has a very obvious fake chest (that is NOT how boobs work). Second has a pronounced brow ridge (exactly like a man would have) (and not to mention that neck and jaw). Third is admittedly the hardest to tell due to angle and pose, but the rather elongated face can help to tell it’s a man. (typical. always finding the perfect angle to sell a lie.)

Also not to mention photoshop, filters, camera angles, lighting, and poses can all help add to their illusion and delusion. If they were to appear in front of you without any of their helpful tools and without makeup they’d be easy to clock.

(And half of the point of the post was to point out how easily any man can slap on a wig and call themselves a woman and have NO ONE question them despite obviously being of the male sex.)

So we’re just straight up lying now? Ok. Let’s put those statements to the test.

Woman:

“Trans” “woman”:

Woman:

“Trans” “woman”:

WOMAN:

“TRANS” “WOMAN”:

Are you getting the picture yet?

I am done pretending there is no difference, that “oh no one can tell” when we’re all just biting our tongues and nodding along to their delusions. THERE IS A HUGE FUCKING DIFFERENCE. One is a woman. The other is a man in a wig. And don’t you dare tell me we have to accept the men in wigs into our female only spaces.

(I may have been a little harsh but you get my point)

Kenyan women started an all-female village as a refuge from sexual violence

South Korean feminists are creating more and more female-only spaces

Japanese women use female-only train carriages to avoid groping

But, anyway, what were you saying about sex segregation being white feminism?

Am I “peaking”

I have created this blog for no other purpose than to figure out what is happening to me.

I am a 29 year old lesbian and I have been a feminist as well as a vocal supporter of trans rights since I first learned of trans people. I have always believed gender dysphoria is real, that trans people simply wish to have rights and to exist peacefully, that they pose no threat to women, that they are the most vulnerable group within the LGBT community, and that they deserve access to HRT as well as any medical procedure that might be considered as life-saving at whatever age their gender therapist deems appropriate.

However, over the past two years I have become increasingly wary of my own beliefs. It began with being told that I, as a lesbian, need to deconstruct my lack of attraction to penises, and that I should be open to sexually engaging with them as long as they are attached to women. My knee-jerk reaction was to be appalled. I grew up in a society that not only expects, but demands that I engage with penises in a sexual manner, and I had already deconstructed my lack of attraction and concluded that I am a lesbian. My lack of attraction to men and penises feels innate and unavoidable, and coming to terms with this fact was one of the hardest things that I have ever had to do. Nonetheless, I accepted this as something I needed to reevaluate and so I did, and came to the same conclusion I had the first time around: I am a lesbian. I am repulsed by penises - regardless of who they are attached to. Despite once again accepting this result, I hid this from my friend group. Most of my friends are either non-binary, trans, or extremely passionate about trans rights (as was I), and I didn’t want to hurt them, or to have my allyship questioned. I figured this is my private business and that I should keep it just that - private.

Then came the JK Rowling saga. I first heard of it through my friends and immediately sided with them. But then… I read her letter. Despite understanding she was parroting what I knew then to be “terf talking points”, I didn’t think her views warranted the amount of backlash she was receiving. Then, she tweeted something that rang especially true to me: “If sex isn’t real, there’s no same-sex attraction.” This tweet hit me like a ton of bricks. I had been attempting to delude myself into believing that sex is a social construct, that it isn’t a binary because “most things aren’t”, all in service of continuing to be the dedicated ally I have always prided myself on being. While this was going on, I kept reading tweets that said when we accept sex and sex characteristics as social constructs, both homosexuality and heterosexuality will ultimately become null. That the only “true” sexuality is pansexuality, that lesbians are inherently transphobic, that if lesbians are not open to dating non-binary AMAB people who have only transitioned socially then we are transphobic, that pronouns have nothing to do with either sex or gender, that the word lesbian now means “non-men attracted to non-men”, that if someone chooses to identify as a lesbian regardless of who they are attracted to then they are a lesbian, that gender dysphoria is no longer necessary for one to be trans, that monosexuals are oppressive and antiquated and are stuck on outdated models of attraction and that when we accept that genitals have nothing to do with sexual attraction, that sex characteristics have nothing to do with sexual attraction, that presentation has nothing to do with sexual attraction - then we will realize everyone is pansexual because sex is only a construct and there are infinite genders that can present in any given way and fluctuate according to mood.

Something within me snapped.

I began searching for answers. Maybe these particular people were insane, but surely there are saner people who still believe in gender dysphoria, and that sex is real, and that homosexuality is real, and maybe I can find these people and reconnect with my original beliefs. But the deeper I looked the more contradictions I found. If pronouns aren’t related to sex or gender, then what does it mean to misgender someone? If gender dysphoria isn’t needed to be trans, if all you need is a connection to the opposite gender, then gender must be something you can define. How, without resorting to stereotypes, can I define a woman? Or a man? I don’t feel a gender, I know I am woman because I look down and see one. If you can’t define a gender, what does it mean to be non-binary? If gender is the connection you feel/don’t feel to a sex, then sex must be real. If sex is real, then why am I wrong for not being attracted to penises? If sex is a construct, and gender doesn’t mean a connection/disconnection to your sex, but a connection to the concepts of womanhood and manhood, then does my dislike for dresses or my like for sports mean that I am not a woman?

I don’t know how to make sense of any of this.

I still believe that gender dysphoria is a medical condition, but I am now confused on where it stems from. I find it difficult to believe so many people would go through such invasive medical procedures in order to alleviate a dysphoria that isn’t real. However… I am starting to question if dysphoria doesn’t stem from someone’s perception of womanhood/manhood and, if that’s the case, wouldn’t it make more sense to simply deconstruct your preconceived notions of what being a woman or a man must entail in terms of gender roles, or even presentation? I am inclined to believe sex dysphoria is real, and that someone’s brain could develop believing the rest of the body would be female or male. But I don’t have the science to back this up, and can’t find anything credible other than perhaps a theory that hormonal exposure in the womb might have something to do with it.

I am quite frankly scared that I may be wrongfully questioning all of this. That I ought to accept this is a phenomenon that exists, even if I don’t understand it. After all, there’s no scientific studies that are able to confidently assert why homosexuality exists, even though I know for a fact that it does because I am a homosexual.

I’m here anonymously because I am scared of losing my group of friends, I am terrified of losing my job, and most of all I would never forgive myself for turning my back on a vulnerable group of people simply because I am incapable of wrapping my brain around something that may not be for me to understand.

But… I do want to understand. I need to understand.

I’ve learned of the term “peaking” from browsing radfem blogs amidst this crisis and I’m afraid that this might be what’s happening to me.

I have spent over a decade hearing from one side of this, so I am now interested in hearing from the other. If anyone has anything, any information, any advice, anything that might help me, please feel free to share.

Thank you.

why do you have trans women they did nothing to you why cant you just let people live their lives in peace no one needs your judgement on their life, no one gives a fuck about how their hands look and love shouldnt be divided by stupid things like that.

What have they done to me...let's see...

1. Successfully campaigned to have male criminals, including rapists and murderers, put in women's prisons if they request it, where they have access to vulnerable female inmates who are often already victims of abuse. This has resulted in many incidents of rape and sexual harassment in women's prisons.

2. Successfully campaigned to end sex-segregation of female washrooms and changerooms, leaving women without privacy even when they're undressed. This has resulted in actual rapes and sexual harassment, and kept vulnerable women from being able to have access to public spaces.

3. Had women's only shelters defunded if they refused to allow males to live or volunteer there.

4. Made it "hate speech" to need and ask for female only spaces, which has resulted in things like actual women being kicked out of domestic violence or homeless shelters if they refused to share a bedroom with a male stranger.

5. Successfully campaigned to have male's crimes reported as female crimes, massively skewing the data on sex offences and violent crimes. Here's 71 male criminals whose crimes were recorded as female crimes.

6. Generally intruded upon women's spaces, refusing to allow female people any private space with members of their own sex. Look at the campaign to shut down a female only music festival (one of the only festivals where women felt safe from rape and sexual harassment), or the campaigns to force women's only colleges to admit male students who identified as women.

7. Demonized lesbians for actually being homosexual, treated lesbians like they were evil for only being capable of attraction to the same sex. Invaded lesbian spaces, appropriated the term lesbian (which means female homosexual and is innately exclusive of any male), deprived actual lesbians of community, and made countless lesbians feel ashamed of themselves for being exclusively same-sex attracted.

8. Completely ended female sports by successfully campaigning to allow literal men to compete against females in women's sport. Actual female people have lost scholarships for female athletes, lost awards, and lost opportunities to compete at high-level sporting events like the Olympics because a male took one of a limited number of spots.

9. Campaigned for young children to be allowed to transition, with access to blockers (which are very dangerous), and to cross-sex hormones (ditto, and irreversible), which has led to countless gay children being left permanently mutilated by their homophobic parents.

Anyone care to add on?
