It always pisses me off when gendies use bisexual supremacy as a way to say that everyone feels attracted to both sexes and that what actual same-sex attraction is just "gender" based attraction.
Like genital preference? Literally only bisexuals have that. Homosexuals have a requirement, not a preference. Lesbians can not like penis. A lesbian is a same sex attracted female. Gay men can not "prefer" vulva because then they are not gay!
"Gender" based attraction? Literally only bisexuals can like feminine women and feminine men only based on their femininity. The only "gender" lesbians can like are the ones who are female, masculine or feminine or androgynous. Does not matter, she just has to be female. There is no "gender based attraction" for homosexuals.
"Vagina fetishest" Literally bashing lesbians for being lesbians. A sexual body part can not be a fetish. A fetish is literally attraction to a nonsexual object or thing. Like a foot fetish, a foot is a nonsexual body part. And they never do this to bisexuals. They never call them genital fetishists.
It does not matter when, or how, or why. If you are not bisexual in some way, you are a bigot.
I just hope they leave us tf alone.

People are not attracted to identities, feelings, or labels. That is not how human sexuality works. Someone recognizing you as female socially does not mean that they must recognize you as female sexually. Being capable of being attracted to trans people who have their clothes on does not equate to wanting to have sex with someone with a trans body. That is not how sexual attraction works. If you got in bed with someone you were attracted to, and they revealed that they had a wart covered purple and green horse penis, would you still want to have sex with them? Genitals matter. Some people are just not attracted to certain genitals. Attraction should not be moralized. People cannot control what they do and do not find attractive. The act of finding or not finding a person attractive is harmless and does not count as a form of discrimination or otherwise immoral behavior. The idea that attraction should be moralized and that sexuality can be changed is the basis for homophobia, conversion therapy, and the myth that homosexuality is a choice.

No change can happen until we as a society stop considering women as an "absence", or beings that "lack" things.
Women are not seeing as individual beings. They are seen as non-men. In ancient times, fertility in women was celebrated. Women were the creators, they were to be celebrated. But a reactionary movement brought phalluses under the spotlight instead. Everything began to be centered around penises, and in turn, their lack thereof. To this day, it's still one of the worst thing that can be conceived by humans (=men and women who still haven't woken up): not having a penis, not having balls, having a small or non functioning penis. It's all about that. Dick, dick, dick. Dicks drawn everywhere, "dick envy", ordinary objects shaped like dicks, dicks celebrated as the gods of fertility. But sperm is always readily available, unlike eggs. Women who are fertile aren't fertile all the time, their ovulatory cycle is more complicated, and it works on the basis of selection, just like the selection of the winning sperm, so as to call it. But that is an argument for another day, going back to the original purpose of this post...
Men are the center of everything. Their bodies are the icons of strength, of functionality, while women are seen as weak, because they don't excel in the same fields where men are the most fit to excel in, because of biomechanics and all. And women do have their own strengths, strengths that men don't and can't have - because of biomechanics still. But they don't matter, all misogynists care about is how to weaken the image of a woman.
Men are seen as more intelligent, when you think of a philosopher, you'd imagine a stoic, solitary man, who is superior to all in his mind... And usually hates women, because unlike other men, women are too dumb to understand his man-struggles.
Men are the default. Masculine is the default. Women are sinners, they ate the apple, they were made from a man's rib, they have to cover their whole bodies because they're nothing but temptation to men. Even the most enlightened men that history celebrates were raging misogynists, women were and are treated as subhuman by the patriarchal society we sadly still live in.
And then comes lesbianism. Men just can't grasp the concept of a woman liking another woman. Not a failed man, not a non-man, not a weak failed copy of a man, not a sex object, not a child bearer, not a free house wife. Lesbians don't like women the way that men think they like women. Lesbians like WOMEN. To them, to us, a woman is the center of all. The body of a woman is not just a man without the holy penis and the holy balls, nor is it a talking breathing sex dolls with perfectly round boobs and easy-to-lubricate holes. A woman has her own shapes, shapes that don't need to be deformed in some unnatural way to fit a sex position, no, a woman has different body proportions, body fat distribution, and yet she has body hair, and isn't born with makeup.
Women are women. They are their own individuals, a man with long hair would not be a woman the same way that a woman with short hair would not be a man. They are different, and different ≠ inferior. Different means different skills, different ways to shine.
To a man, a woman being a lesbian is an act of rebellion. Because the lesbian both ceases to live as an object whose only purpose is to serve men, and because, being a woman who loves women, she does not center her world view around men. Men are not her default, women are. Men are not her focus, women are.
And it's why men can't understand why some lesbians for example like butches but, obviously, not men. They see women as non-men when they see hypersexualized caricatures of women, when you take that hypersexualization away, when a butch has short hair and wears "mens clothes" and "looks like a man" all she is, to men, is a man without a penis. So "why not just go for the real man, with a real penis?". They can't fathom the idea of not liking penis just like they don't understand that butches and women who don't perform the construct of femininity they built are, in fact, still women.
Same way how they see two "femme" lesbians in porn using a strap-on and say the same thing, how if they use a strap-on then they can do a real man. Firstly, they don't understand that a woman with a strap on during sex is, in fact, still a woman. And secondly, they are seeing a part of themselves, their most precious and cherished part, being used as an object without much importance by the category of people that will never link with men. And they can't grasp that.
To men, a man who lost or is without a functioning penis and balls is not a man. He's emasculated, he's not virile, he's weak. They may feel pity for him.
For women, a woman who lost or is without a functioning part of her reproductively apparatus is still a woman. A woman who isn't fertile is still a woman, and doesn't lose any value in the eyes of women (except conservative trad-wives, maybe). A woman who lost her breast(s) doesn't lose value. A woman who has bigger breasts isn't more valuable than a woman with smaller breasts, while men argue within themselves all the time with "who has it bigger".
Women are not non-men, they are women. We have been erased, we have been shaped to the liking of men for too long, it's time to react. We need to speak up, not only for us, but for those sisters who still haven't opened their eyes, and those sisters who can't use their voices because it puts their lives in danger. We are not men, we are not inferior because we are not men, we are different, but we are still strong. We are different, but just as valuable. We will not bear in silence.
I'm a lesbian, I love women. I don't love non-men, I love women and all that has to do with their being a woman.

If you ever feel invalidated by an exclusionist, please remember this post because I can assure you they don't know what they're talking about💀
⚠️trigger warning for of course exclusionist dumbassery, also this gets rant-y⚠️
I swear exclusionists have the most incoherent thought processes known to man dude cuz what is this shit
Tumblr media
[ID: purple header text reading he/him lesboy flag/ hesboy flag! Under this text is plain black text reading based on these two flags: •reclaimed lesboy •he/him lesbian. Under this, red, bold text reads DNI, followed by rad inclus, terfs/transmeds, anti he/him lesbians & she/her gays, male/men "lesbians" in black plain text. End ID]
'Lesboy flag' and 'no man lesbians' in the same post... my brain is melting. Also... these people 'reclaimed' the term lesboy? Just to exclude a group of people who are lesboys? You do know that lesbians who also consider themselves men are also included in the lesboy term? Apparently not to these people. Butches who also consider themselves men? Sorry, not lesbians anymore. Multigender man lesbians? Nah sorry you're men so you can't be lesbians./sarc
Tumblr media
[ID: blue header text reading Demiboy lesbian flag! Beneath this, quote text (at least I think that's what it's called) reads I couldn't decide on which ones to choose, so I'm posting all of them! Beneath this, much like the previous image, OP starts off their DNI with a bold red DNI, followed by black plain text. This text reads mspec "lesbians", radinclus, terfs/transmeds, radfems, men/male "lesbians", anti he/him lesbians and she/her gays. End ID]
Is that,, not excluding demiboy lesbians? Oh my bad, it's fine cuz they're only 'partially male' and therefore aren't ACTUALLY icky men invading lesbian spaces!/sarc
Also can I just say how fucking entitled it is to be all like 'mspec "lesbians"' with the quotes and shit? Like oh my god get over yourself, you aren't the leader of the lesbians™️ [trademark]. Bro thinks they're part of the lesbian council or some shit. 💀
Besides that, this has got to be one of the funniest examples of exclusionist stupidity I've ever seen. I can't get over it bro: 'demiboy lesbian flag!' 'Fuck off icky man lesbians!' In the SAME. POST. BAHAHA–
-----
It's rare that I feel the need to take screenshots and talk about them on my blog, but these are so poetically idiotic that I had to make a whole post dedicated to them. So yeah, sorry about your braincells lmao. But just know you're valid regardless of how you identify as a lesbian, and these are the types of people who think otherwise. Needless to say, they aren't really that credible.
Tumblr media
[ID: a DNI banner with a purple background with lighter purple text reading DNI: system/queer exlusionists, TERFs/SWERFs, truscum/transmeds, anti recovery for harmful paraphilia, anti otherkin, anti self dx, pro cringe culture, pro-lifers, anti xenogender. A more detailed DNI is in my pinned post. A transparent png of Shadow The Hedgehog can be seen on the right, beside the text. He's holding his hand to his chest, his body facing the text and his eyes looking off to the distance. End ID]

"girlhood" means you get thrown under the bus by your friends who seek validation, period cramps so bad you can't move, going through bad periods and low mental health knowing it's seen only as "dumb teenage attention seeking behaviour", it's sexual assault that doesn't get denounced and is minimised because "he is depressed", it's diets that turn into eating disorders until you need months in a hospital, it's male teachers making comments on the perfect female measures and talking about how we arent smart enough to study STEM subjects, and p.e. teachers insulting anyone who isn't borderline underweight, and it's always having your interests minimised because what would a woman ever know about football? and it's having a reputation if you sleep with too many guys, and having a reputation if you try too hard to conform to feminity, and having a reputation if you don't try hard enough, and it's lying to your friends about why you started having bruises after getting with your boyfriend, and it's feeling isolated the moment you don't conform to expectations because everybody seems to be following rules that you can't apply to yourself, it's birth control with more side effects than anything as a cure for all menstrual problems, and it's doctors minimising your symptoms, and it's crying after realising you've been used by the boy you thought loved you, and it's justifying yourself for looking tired or being without make up in certain context, and it's catcalling and harassment. prom dress and sleepovers my ass

Hayao Miyazaki is not a pioneer of feminist representation
In all Ghibli stories, girls and women possess conventionally feminine attributes. They have a cute voice and a shy demeanor. They are more in contact with the home or the forces of the spirit world, as if women are alien to human societies. They are either cooking or cleaning (Sophie as cleaning lady for Howl, Satsuki and Mei cleaning their new house in My Neighbor Totoro, Chihiro cleaning the bathhouse in Spirited Away, Kiki cleaning the room in Kiki’s Delivery Service, etc)
They are docile and emotionally dependent on men. If the boy doesn't get the girl, the girl gets the boy. That's not feminism. That's the liberal version of patriarchy. True feminism or subversion of gender roles is in the rejection of the "straight" lifestyle
"There's nothing wrong with love or falling in love"
There's nothing wrong with it, because you believe there's nothing wrong with it? Then there's everything wrong with it, because I believe there's everything wrong with it!
Ghibli may be less misogynistic than Disney, but it is important to recognize that there is progress to be made. The few times women fought for themselves doesn't erase all the flaws within Studio Ghibli

i think i would respect radfems a lot more if they didn't kneejerk to transphobia and misandry constantly. but then transphobia and misandry is like their entire MO so i guess there's no way for me to respect radfems.
oh and by the way you can 10000% be a feminist and still respect trans people and still accept that men are people who can be oppressed just as much & more than all the white 20something British/American radfem girlies on here. please just understand that the patriarchy benefits from keeping you feeling helpless and scared and victimised and making other women feel scared and helpless and victimised. and your learned helplessness schtick is getting so fucking boring. ranting about trans people on tumblr makes the world better for oppressed women how exactly? yeah it really doesn't, not even a little bit so maybe go work in a soup kitchen and contribute to society in meaningful ways and stop being on the same side as the most misogynistic right wing men in existence just cus they 🙃 also happen to hate trans people 🙃
If they go after trans people, you do know that all the cis lesbians and unruly women are next, right? Trans people are quite literally standing between racist sexist lawmakers and YOU. you think they would have dared to touch Roe v Wade if transphobia hadn't popularised misogynistic talking points? the idea that women are defined by their vaginas and need to stay within their female roles no matter how much it hurts? the idea that lawmakers can define what a woman is, and therefore can police women's bodies? the idea that womanhood is immutable - as well as the idea that abortion and pregnancies are women's issues only?
they look at you and go "well it seems to be popular now to hate the transes, good! maybe they'll be too distracted to notice us taking their rights away. oh you're saying they hate the regular gays too*? most excellent! they will all fall like dominoes! women belong in the kitchen, they shouldn't be having thoughts at all!"
This is what the lawmakers that you're allying yourself with think about you, and you still support them?
*transphobes are usually homophobic too, i.e. "LGB" alliance, example: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/5050/lgb-alliance-gay-venues-pride-monkeypox-twitter/
anyway when was the last time you called your MP or representative about FGM? about Iran? about Roe v Wade? Next time you want to reblog a reachy post about how all trans people are evil and we need to drop the T, do literally any of the above first. Go work in a women's shelter and meet trans women who are deeply traumatised, fleeing domestic violence, who will be let into most shelters without question (and those who would turn them away would turn away cis gays or lesbians too, eg salvation army), and maybe then you'll see that trans women are no more dangerous than the average cis woman and the same amount of vulnerable, if not more so.
trans exclusion is actually very likely to backfire and hurt you too. They'll use trans people as guinea pigs to see how much rights they can take away from a minority group without people caring; and then they'll turn to the cis gays, the racial and religious minorities, the disabled, and the WOMEN.
protecting trans people is very feminist and it is entirely and completely in your own interests to support us. i prommy you can still be a feminist, a lesbian even!
just put your money where your mouth is and actually support women in legitimate, tangible ways. raging against trans people isn't helping women one bit. call your representative. write to your mp. talk about iran or how worried you are about misogynistic talking points becoming much more prominent again. become a fgm activist or help sign up marginalised women to vote. hand out food parcels or help in a shelter or community garden. put your money where your mouth is.
or are you going to use all your energy on debating "men" and denying their reality? are you going to spend all your time thinking about men? foaming at the mouth thinking about other people's genitals (which you have not been invited to see or think about)? how is that going to help, exactly?
or is it just that you don't have enough compassion to think about other women and their actual, real life needs? just not enough time to help actual women, cus you're too busy dunking on trans people online?
misogyny is a real problem with real life impact and this is NOT caused by trans people. by focusing on trans people, you are doing women and feminism a huge disservice.
Just. Radfems, you really gotta rethink your priorities. Don't buy into fearmongering. Support women instead.

I'm sick and tired of bisexual and hetero women making lesbians out to be the bad guys when it comes to female seperatism. It is literally part of the damn movement. Sorry you have issues following or even understanding your own movement, but I will not apologize for pointing that shit out.
There are hundreds of hetero and bi women in other countries who can and do see past their own desires for the sake of the movement that they truly believe in.
And jesus stop comparing dating your own oppressor to lesbians dating other women. Like I dunno if you have noticed but lesbians don't date men, of course female seperatism is gunna look different for lesbians. Maybe it is even easier for us. But lesbians not being able to date each other in the past is NOT the same as osa women being asked not to date their own damn oppressor! Are you gyns even ducking hearing yourself???
Honestly it feels like most "radfem" gyns aren't even radfem. When they are confronted with their own shit they react just like TRA's & TQ+ & extreme right wingers.
I don't care what anyone says. I just don't. My lesbian friends always have something to show when the topic of lesbophobia in radfem spaces comes up. Always. I do too. I see this shit all the time myself. I will hope radblr is different but I'm not getting my hopes up.
If you wanna worship dick, go and do that. But don't pretend like you are a full on hardcore radfem when real hardcore radfems leave their dick worshipping ways behind them, no matter how much they wanna worship dick. It's not like we can stop you.
Radical feminism is a way of life, an ideology. Ideals to structure your life after. Female seperatism is one of them.
No one said you have to follow all the ideas of radical feminism but female seperatism is a pretty ducking big one. Calling it oppression is lunacy and complaining when someone brings it up is pretty ducking stupid.
The way osa women cry wolf... Smh. Especially considering that osa women are the ones who came up with the whole "female separatism" shit... Right during the time when they excluded lesbians from the movement... Guess some things never change.

Accidentally stumbled upon a radical feminist blog who reblogged a post from a lesbian who cried about being described as weird (“queer”)
So she went on a rant how she wants to be seen as normal, how she wants to be seen as just a lesbian, a normal lesbian with normal hobbies and a normal appearance, and she believes calling people “weird” (queer) was homophobic
I’ve seen antis ask or push for the same
“Why can’t you be normal (like me?)”
“Why do you have to be weird?”
“I’m freak free/I’m not weird, I’m x!”
And I can’t help but wonder how they can’t see that this push for normalcy isn’t going to help anyone… because society is never going to see people who don’t fit cis people’s “standards” as “normal”

Offtop from art posting
Yesterday I was reading my fav channel about lesbian and queer relationships (it’s be awesome blogger Sasha Kazantseva, google her). And there was a really good post about how to communicate and understand a person with unusual trans identity. Very educational. But in the comments terfs showed up and somehow find a reason to rage.
One of them posted this familiar long rant, how “gender ideology” is the reason why women oppressed and also “why the f we have to respect anyone’s pronouns/genders!!!” And I noticed how f-ing ridiculous this shit is and the fact they justify it by women’s rights is appalling.
I remember in 2016 I was still empathetic person, though that the most important thing is be your true self and was shocked when read the article about trans women in russia and how they have to survive. I f-ing didn’t know that the “gender ideology” was the root of all evil in the world until I found a very charismatic terf who lured people in her circle with based takes about feminism. Claiming she’s a radical feminist, she wrote really good things and added transphobia, racism and justification of child abuse here and there (yes she said it’s ok for women to beat and torture kids, because women is oppressed class). And I even wasn’t agree with most of her fash crap, but she helped me in awful times in my life, so I was willing to turn a blind eye. And yeah, was introduced to a new target for my rage, scary maniacs in womens clothes, whose only goal is to rape every child and woman in the toilets or locker rooms 🤡
So. Saying gender ideology is the reason of women’s oppression is so fucking funny, like read history books idk?? And if anything women’s rights are more protected in countries where trans rights are recognized. She also added, that trans persons reproduce stereotypes about women and women are hated for being feminine and if women weren’t feminine there would be no reason to hate. There’s a lot to unpack here, but this is so misogynistic. I loved being a girl since childhood, I always thought girls are cooler, and I consider myself a very feminine person even if I look super neutral or even masculine on the surface. 😮‍💨
And. The whining about people wanting to their identities/boundaries etc be respected, putting your “opinion” over people’s well-being is so immature and also fascist. Are you f-ing don’t know about basic human decency and politeness?? Try to learn how to live in civilized society maybe?? No one f-ing ask your shitty opinion about anyone’s body/face/gender/name/health etc, your shitty opinion have no value on this subjects, keep it to yourself.
And how they reduce even cis women’s for their flat definitions of women or sexuality. I of course share the experience of oppression with many cis women, there’s a lot of common things, and they influenced my life and personality. Yet I am unique human being, I have my own femininity, my own sexuality, my own mind. Seeing how she writes about women as a homogeneous mass and sexuality as a simple matter is so f-ing funny. Sis, I’m a living proof you’re wrong, so is any other person, there’s a whole world outside of your head of you didn’t knew.
Tl;dr I guess. To any gender critical feminist who fights scary gender ideology and trans people everyday, solution to your problems is to close your socials, put down your phone and go outside. Or play MH Stories 2, or stardew valley. Or meet your friends. And see a therapist. When you remember how to live a life you will save yourself from monsters in your head, amazing right? 😸

Hello ! I was wondering if you had any YouTube creators you would recommend? I have really woken up and gotten into radical feminism recently and am finding it hard to find good trans critical videos that aren’t from right wing nuts 🙄 thank you for the help and your blog is amazing 💕
Hi, and thank you (sometimes I forget to say thank you when people tell me they love my blog).
Unfortunately, I do not really follow many YouTubers who are explicitly radical feminists/gender critical. My best suggestions is:
Sapphic Underground is a lesbian who reviews f/f media. She has a side podcast called Sapphic Talks that is explicity gender critical, but her main channel is fairly light-hearted.
Other than that, I don't have any recommendations. I'm of the same opinion that the YouTube radical feminist content is overrun with conservatives who believe there are two genders because God said so and also women should stay in the kitchen, left-wing YouTubers who read off tweets and Reddit posts to dunk on "TERFs", and self-styled political commentators like Shaun, Contrapoints, and Jesse Gender.
If you've just discovered radical feminism, it's a good chance to also center women and women's art, voices, and perspectives in your life. So apologies to soapbox for a minute and recommend some of my favorite female YouTubers (who are not radical feminists, I just like them and want to share them. I also got too lazy to link everyone, so sorry about that!):
Laura Kampf is a German lesbian who does all kinds of house renovation and building projects. Her 120-year old house restoration series is my reality television.
Nicole Rafiee for funny rants and more informal, chatty social commentary
Kasey Golden for wholesome and cute art.
Vewn for her unique and interesting animation style
cari can read because she summarizes Sarah J. Maas books in an entertaining way so I never have to pick one up (sorry to all my Sarah J. Maas enthusiasts, I still love you guys)
Kennie J. D. has a series called Bad Movies and a Beat where she makes fun of bad movies while doing her makeup. She's so funny and she just covered The Ultimatum: Queer Love
Natacha Oceane for fitness inspo.
withWendy does all kinds of cool sewing projects. I'd also recommend coorlipa and JENerationDIY.
Mina Le for fashion history and commentary
AmandaRachLee if you like bullet journaling
Kel Lauren does design! She takes popular brand logos and merchandise and redesigns them to make them look better.
Jenny Nicholson does fandom and media deep dives. She's a big theme park and Disney person. She has a great sense of dry humor and her 'The Last Bronycon: a Fandom Autopsy' is one of my favorite videos
Micarah Tewers for sewing videos, but also whatever the hell else she feels like, including a funeral for her pet rodent L'Trexa
ANJA for cool paintings and art
Sorry this list got so long, but I love to give a good shout out. If anyone has any good recommendations for anon, don't be shy! Reblog and drop some suggestions.
