The day I find my wife Iโll be insufferable.
Tumblr is like
โRadfems are so evil and stupid because of (insert complete misunderstanding of radical feminism here)โ-20,000 notes
A radfem actually explaining what we believe and why - almost never more than 1000 notes
Iโm actually counting the days until u guys r like โlet women have kids!!!!โ
In light of The Girlsโ 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 didnโt know, under slavery in America black women and girls were experimented on by gynecologist J. Marion Sims. Despite the amount of pain he inflicted, heโs still considered the father of gynecology. Itโs 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 โeasierโ exploitation of black women and girls.
Also, white men didnโt 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. Iโm not surprised the sisterhood is fragile, i wouldnโt trust them either.
Anyway, iโm white so if any black woman wants to add to this post, please do so!
Libfems defend SW because they imagine it being cool alt girls, gays, and theys doing it, but that isnโt the reality. Do you know how many older women are prostitutes? Imagine your mother not having the funds and support to live financially secure in society and having to be raped by men daily to make ends meet. That isnโt empowering. Grandmothers are prostitutes. Grandmothers are in porn. Grandmothers are being sexually abused by johns.
Theyโre being degraded. Theyโre being raped. Theyโre being abused. Theyโre being financially and sexually exploited. By men.
And youโre alright with that? You think that is defendable because a 20-something girl likes doing onlyf*ns?? Youโre fighting for the rights of the more privileged of us women to continue doing โworkโ that they can easily get out of and move back in with their parents and delete their online footprint. Because that is how you choose to view โsex workersโ to make your decision more palatable. You use abused women brainwashed by the patriarchy and sexual abuse to say, โBut Iโm underprivileged and get raped by johns daily and I LOVE IT!โ so you can plug your ears and ignore the thousands of other prostitutes who talk about their exploitation
The next time you defend prostitution, imagine your grandmother in that place. Because you sure as hell donโt care when itโs your own female peers.
lets be pointy with mama
One person was banned almost immediately.
The other person was not banned until they made another post revealing that they were posting videos of their partner.
One person was harassed and bullied and told that they were lying.
One person was given advice, told about how they could improve their situation.
This is why kink is not safe. There is more compassion and kindness for someone who admits to wanting to kick their partner in the face than there is for someone who has received that treatment.
