#female separatism

[kiawritesstuff]

Sick! I feel sick. Please, all the women out there, I am begging you to stop sleeping with XY Chromosomes. Males don't see us as humans; they are not making love to you; they just want to dominate you, force you, and brag about it to their male friends because they see us as a sex toy that needs to be broken and bragged about. Females, separate yourselves from these demons. How many examples are needed to see that males are not capable of love? They say we are submissive, but they have to continue demeaning us.If submission was our nature, they wouldn't need to always force it upon us. In reality, all males crave validation from other males; they don't love us or even like us because they are in love with their fellow males. That's why they protect the abusers, the rapists, and monsters like the man mentioned above. They like to hype those men because they crave to be like them. Like demons!

im really interested in the revival of riot grrrl; i think its absolutely possible for it to make a comeback, and i could even argue that it never actually went away...i mean, its definitely lost a bit of its edge, but their are bands coming out in its genre and they keep the spirit alive. anyway, the essential thing for the revival is that riot grrrl fixes its previous mistakes. i hate when people try to trivialize its importance because i do think it made a difference in the small span of time that it was really popular, but the main issues were how whitewashed it was, how it mostly focused on middle/upper suburban women, and how it (in my opinion mostly) centered a lot around reclaiming femininity, thereby neglecting gnc women who don't WANT to reclaim it. i found a cool article on black women in the feminist punk movement--specifically how they made their own movement, sista grrrl riot--and these quotes stood out to me. this ones by musician tamar kali brown:

"Being in this urban jungle, I was a different type of girl. I was hearing what they were saying, but I was living in an environment where people were getting stabbed. Riot Grrrl felt like a bubblegum expression. I was bald, and I would get a lot of negative attention that bordered on violence, so I wasn't in the world of [baby voice] 'You just think I can't play because I'm a girl!'

and this one by laronda davis:

"I never looked at a magazine and thought that that was what I was supposed to look like. On one hand, it's actually kind of liberating to not be what this standard of womanhood is. That standard put a lot of women in boxes, and they spend their li[ves] trying to get out of the box. Black women were never allowed in the box. I wasn't looking at TV saying, 'Oh, that represents me.' I wasn't listening to music telling about my experience. I had experiences that told me I wasn't concerned with these things that the happy songs were about."

(article here)

all in all i think what riot grrrl needs to change is its idea of a universal female childhood in their songs that we can all relate to. it kind of sucks to say but really all women do have in common are the stereotypes we're given, and when punk women criticized and defied those stereotypes they really shone; i was reading that people called kathleen hanna writing "slut" on her stomach white feminism and i was like....err. sexualization is something all women are subjected to. i've just been in a bit of a rabbit hole which started when i researched the history of trans people in riot grrrl, then to modern times when i found a claim that kathleen hanna had stopped using the line "all girls to the front" and edited her riot grrrl manifesto, and finally ended here with me thinking "man, riot grrrl's spirit is needed now more than ever, but like we need to make it WAAAAYYY better so it actually works out". the good news is, like i said, it hasn't actually faded out of mainstream consciousness.

i might add on to this in later posts. sorry if it's messy.

Two men hit on lesbians and get mad that they don’t reciprocate back, then proceed to shoot the music venue up.

How are we supposed to feel safe?

When the pulse shooting happened in 2016, I was only 12 years old. I still remember watching the news of what had happened at my grandmas house while she was watching me for the day. I was filled with fear. I didn’t know that so much hate existed towards gay people and this was my first time ever witnessing it. My family was pretty accepting of gay people, and so was everyone else I knew. It was the first time I realized that there were people out there who hated me enough to kill me.

I was only 12, but I vowed to myself then that I’d never go to a gay club or event, and I still haven’t to this day (due to a mix of fear and general laziness)

It’s just a bitter reminder that these spaces will never be truly safe. My mind will wander every time I step foot into one of those organizations about the possible threats.

2 questions

1. Do you believe in separatism?

2. Do you prioritize media (books/movies/shows/media) with female/authors/directors/writers/characters?

Second poll will be posted tomorrow

Thanks for the questions, anon!

feel free to ignore this but i really resonate with ur blog and i was wondering if you had any ideas of what careers mostly or only benefit women? i'm at the point in my life where i need to make decisions about careers and stuff and i wanted your opinion <3

That's kind of a difficult question as it very much depends on where in the world you live, and what you have access to in terms of study. In my country at least most jobs are tailored towards helping whoever specifically needs it - choosing to only help women could get you into legal difficulties.

But, off the top of my head,

Working in the domestic violence sector (shelter workers, advocates)

Working in midwifery, gynecology or obstetrics

Law - specifically domestic law, family court, divorce law, or something very specialised like sex discrimination law

Law enforcement- I know a lot of people hear this and think "Cops are bad" and for good reason, but the more women we have, even in administrative positions, the more women come forward and feel comfortable and confident in reporting violent crime.

But really, any job that you can achieve to a level that grants you institutional power will give you the opportunity for a platform and to help a lot of women with reforms or systemic changes.

Have a farm? Hire female workers and have a women-only space. Have a gallery? Promote and exhibit female artists. Become a mechanic/tradesperson/landscaper? Be a place where women feel comfortable spending their money, not being talked down to or insulted, and an inspiration to young girls.

Find something that brings you joy, that makes you feel fulfilled, and think about how it can benefit the women and girls in your community.

“Can you define woman without excluding any woman?” Yes, I can, actually.

A woman is a person born with at least one X chromosome and with the absence of a Y chromosome.

It’s fairly simple. People with Turner’s syndrome (XO) are ALWAYS female, and people with Klinefelter’s syndrome (XXY) are ALWAYS male, because the presence of the Y chromosome makes them male. And this isn’t my opinion by the way, this is medical literature. We’re also talking about sex here, not gender. This includes any variation of chromosomes - for example, the extremely rare genetic disorder, XXXYY, people with this disorder are ALWAYS MALE, even though they have more than one (and two!) X chromosomes, because the presence of the Y chromosome makes you male.

I give any radfems and/or TERFs the right to use this explanation whenever some TRA trues to pull the “but what about (extremely rare genetic disorder) or (someone with no ovaries, a hysterectomy, etc). Because you don’t really need to define “woman” by external genitalia or even anatomy, because there’s one thing that all women have, no matter what. And it’s at least one X chromosome, and no Y chromosome.

Pregnancy is not "inconvenient"

Missing the bus is inconvenient.

Losing your purse is inconvenient

Pregnancy is intrusive, risky and life-changing and no one should have to justify not wanting to go through it.

Lmao literally women should be allowed to have female only spaces just because, and not just because of safeguarding from males. Women want to go to a women only gym? A women only club? A women only knitting circle? A women only concert, yoga class, workshop, etc? They should be allowed to without MALES pitching a fucking fit about it and demanding “inclusion.” Women should be allowed to seek out and use female only spaces because that’s our fucking right in this male centered, male dominated, male obsessed society. Just fucking BECAUSE.

I saw this from the female separatism subreddit & the responses are some of the biggest reasons for separatism et al (or extinction if I'm being candid here). Moids cant be reformed they are fully aware of the hell they force women to live in. MaIe achievement & happiness is rooted in female exploitation & life. Their glory days are based on our horrific days. No amount of love, kindness or facts will change maIes and we cannot happily or even neutrally coexist with them.

Main points across answers:

Many want to experiment but not permanently be women

They dont want to be in constant danger or lose their autonomy at the hands of maIes for merely existing

They dont want to deal with childbirth (& periods)

They dont want to have to share spaces with species much stronger than them with ulterior motives

It makes me go crazy seeing people give moids benefit of doubt for their evil like "maIes just dont understand", "we need to teach maIes", or claiming that maIe violence is a result of maIes struggling with (expressing) their feelings. I get that women love maIes and it can be hard to imagine that people can intentionally be so evil but it is what it is. MaIes have no problems expressing themselves, abusing women is what maIes choose to do because they enjoy & benefit from it - that is their expression.

MaIes see the same news of women being abused, raped, and killed like we do except rather than be disheartened or alarmed they're either apathetic or satisfied. It isn't aliens that's committing GBV it's maIes & maIes have no problem reminding women of this when women anger them (such as rape threats & threatening women they'll end up on the news/true crime). The victim blaming, denial, and derailment of misogyny is part of the game to keep the system alive, they know the events occured & are a systemic occurence they just dont care. Hell not only do they not care, they rejoice in it or get off on it.

MaIes set up environments that work in their favour which simultaneously ensures that women will lose. They know women are set up to live in damn near impossible conditions for us. It's normalised for women to defenselessly share personal & private spaces with beings much more stronger than them with ulterior motives for us, it's trap. It's interesting how these moids aren't saying that they'll just cover up and *poof* harrassment gone, or they'll just pick a nice guy & they'll be okay. MaIes know the net negative they are towards women.

MaIes know that childbirth is a painful process & what do they do? Demand it happens and make it even MORE painful for women. MaIes that impregnate women do not love or care for them. Pregnancy itself is dangerous & sometimes lethal, often comes with a range of health issues, to cause someone to be in that condition especially in a environment where abortions are illegal is reckless & unloving. Now imagine how sinister & full of hatred one has to be to impregnate someone and abuse them on top of that. Many women risk their health & lives to reproduce with a Y and they get abused by said Y instead of being taken care of. Deranged.

Realising that maIes are aware of the evil they inflict is one of the things that radicalised me. It isn't a miscommunication or ignorance issue, their violence is intended. They want control. The cruelty is the point. Instead of wasting time & energy trying to change maIes or hope that they "understand" one day, focus on yourself & other women (who prioritise women). Moids aren't oblivious to female pain they enjoy it. A lot of women treat maIe evil like it's a mistake on maIes part but it's calculated terrorism. I know that this will go over many womens heads as they refuse to hold strong negative sentiments about moids as a collective so if you're not a woman like that, take this post as a sanity check. You aren't crazy, it isn't all in your head.

i want female only sports, including chess. i also want female only book clubs and female only karaoke nights and female only whatever women want to enjoy without the threat of men breathing down their necks. it's not about physical or mental superiority and more about me just wanting one place where i don't have to deal with sexists and chauvinists, especially when im doing something i love.

finally reddit speaking some truth

[springphile]

Finding out that teenage girls are the demographic most at risk of kidnapping and the group most likely to kidnap them are middle aged males certified my misandry.

I have come to a point in my life where I can no longer bring myself to care about male individuals. They are shallow, revolting, devoid of any real emotional depth.

Once you realize this hard truth, you'll quickly lose all interest in them.

Whenever a male approaches me, I can barely manage to hold a simple conversation without feeling the urge to roll my eyes.

Music, cinema, and books made by men are laughable and not worth my time or money.

The only route that remains is female separatism, or death by boredom.

I saw a post about how “people” are ruining ai by using it to make child pornography.

why not be a little more specific? 99.3% of child pornography offenders are men and it’s still spoken about as something people do, not something men do. whats that one quote? men love male-as-default language until it’s used to describe pedophiles and murderers.
