my mom asked me what a word meant yesterday and i didnt know so i said “our best scientists are still working on this” and she laughed so fucjing hard ????
to be honest, as a bisexual woman i'm actually so tired of seeing tha tras use bisexuality as the dumpsterfire of a sexuality where we'll just take anything and everything, and that we're slutty and have absolutely no standards. because when i'm dating someone i lose all attraction to both sex's and only feel pure and complete devotion to my partner.
'transgender people and bisexual people are MADE for each other' no. no we are fucking not. just because we're attracted to both sexes does that mean we'll date everyone and everything. fuck you. please learn to love yourself.
pet peeve: when a male, a group of men or a male-dominated government/regime commit an act of incomprehensible violence and people lament the nature of “humans” or “people”.

In light of The Girls’ Spot gym backlash, where both men and women are comparing black women to males because black women are masculinised, getting this on my ig feed was infuriatingly ironic.
In case you didn’t know, under slavery in America black women and girls were experimented on by gynecologist J. Marion Sims. Despite the amount of pain he inflicted, he’s still considered the father of gynecology. It’s also no surprise that he is the fucker that invented the speculum.
And now comes my point.
Black women being masculinised does in no way mean they are seen or treated as males. White supremacist patriarchy always treated them as the females they are. The rapes, the forced breeding, these experiments: they all happened because
1) everybody knows what a woman is
2) slavery and the racist notion of black people feeling way less pain
allowed for an “easier” exploitation of black women and girls.
Also, white men didn’t teach sub-saharian African men misogyny. That was already there. Black women were already facing sex-based oppression, long before colonisation.
To compare the masculinisation of black women to maleness is an extreme show of misogynoir. It erases the history and the present day reality of black women and girls all around the world.
And this is the hill libfems are willing to die on, just for a bunch of delusional (and mostly white) men. I’m not surprised the sisterhood is fragile, i wouldn’t trust them either.
Anyway, i’m white so if any black woman wants to add to this post, please do so!
The day I find my wife I’ll be insufferable.

A radfem actually explaining what we believe and why - almost never more than 1000 notes
EAT 3 YUMMY MEALS A DAY WITH SNACKS! WEAR COMFORTABLE CLOTHES! THROW OUT YOUR RAZORS AND MAKEUP! SPEND UR MONEY ON DEVELOPING SKILLS, READING BOOKS AND TRAVELLING!!! THIS IS FOR FEMINISM!!!
Radfems: I am concerned about female genital mutilation, the systemic rape and abuse of women in Africa and the middle east, the women’s rights violations in Afghanistan, honor killings in Islam, the human trafficking taking place around the world, sex tourism, and the lack of women’s rights in many countries. Also, we need to focus on femicide as it affects women everywhere but especially in the global south.
Liberals: …
Radfems: I also hate makeup and beauty standards.
Liberals: WOW. You white western radfems don’t care at ALL about what’s happening to women in the global south. Or the abuse of women in third world countries. What about what’s going on in Afghanistan? You don’t care!!!
