there used to be so many more resources for radical feminists outside of tumblr and they’ve all been taken down or just abandoned :/

like the majority of my radical feminist knowledge comes from old radfem texts obvs (daly, dworkin, mackinnon etc) but i like. lived on wordpress accounts in 2012.

the corners of radical feminist wordpresses from 2012-2014 were truly something else and the comments sections were fucking goldmines! i miss all these resources! i’m trying to find all my favorites and most of them are gone and it’s just so heartbreaking and it makes me so sad for women who are just discovering radical feminism.

like i just feel so lucky to have had this background of knowledge that women just don’t have access to anymore. i’m carrying around the thoughts and opinions of women that have changed my points of view for almost TEN YEARS now! and now that i wanna find those resources again to share with other women i go back and find it’s all fucking gone and i’m just so sad about it

#i feel like radical feminism on tumblr has been so fucking diluted #and i completely understand why. the aggression and popularity of trans politics has made it so it’s IMPOSSIBLE to do anything else #like the wordpress accounts i’m referencing were also critical of transgenderism but as a concept #whereas many of these new radfem blogs are criticizing individual people who are often teenagers and often literally brainwashed #and i don’t know the answer to that! because i understand why these women are being petty! because no matter what we do these teens #and also GROWN ADULTS who are in this gender fandom block us from speaking about ANYTHING!#but at the same time the movement has become a joke! bring back the amazing women who guided me through this all #that have since abandoned radical feminism on tumblr because it’s often useless and alienating!#call me parasocial but i miss these literal women’s ‘’voices’’ !!!#i’m so fed up with the shift in community i’ve seen but there’s nothing that can be done about it #i swear every day i feel like i’m the old radfem granny on the porch who has just been here for too goddamn long and is so bitter about it
