ex-christian but i suspect life without eve's choice would have been hellish for women. eve was already condemned to the title of adam's rib. when i was a kid, i used to be angry with eve for taking away a chance at paradise (the intention, i'm certain). but now, i suspect she may have just saved us all the plight of her own existence and i like to think she had more in mind before and after she took that fruit.
Question: Who established gay rights? People: I think it was the educated, smart, diligent, passionate gay men and lesbians who are on historical record organizing massive events, lobbying, creating massively impactful self funded activist campaigns, writing etc. TRAs: WRONG! It was coked out and drunk tranvestite prostitutes. You owe everything to them. Sure there's no historical record of them like, doing anything but we have gay rights because of them. Ohhh okayy.
everything beautiful in this world is vagina shaped… orchids and lillies and oysters and strawberries and figs and kiwis and vaginas <3 <3 <3
"Men's sexuality is visually oriented women's sexuality is relationally oriented" I really resent the idea women don't care about looks or the idea that women prioritizing warm relations and emotional safety over looks is "natural". Maybe hetero men should get systemically raped and sexually violated for 10,000 years and then we check back to see if they are still only primarily visually oriented or if they start caring about good relations and warm, safe feelings more too. Men just being able to focus on what aesthetically pleases them sexually is not "natural", it's a privilege afforded by social domination and having less to worry about safety wise.
a thing that really shook me was the study where women performed worse in a math test when they were wearing a swimsuit vs a sweater whereas for men there was no difference. objectification literally diminishes your brain capacity. i can't help but wonder what we could be in a truly liberated society because there's no way that how we are raised to be objectified and to even self objectify hasn't thoroughly poisoned our brains to always underperform even in normal clothes.
Just seen this come across my insta….. do they really think this is some sort of gotcha??
No bestie that’s not a woman, because a woman is a female HUMAN, that is however a female CHICKEN which makes it a hen… different kind of egg but it’s nice knowing that she can at least identify a female even if she can’t identify a woman 🤷♀️
Or maybe she’s doing a bit based on Diogenes’ featherless biped/behold a man thing? Or is that giving her too much credit?
What really gets to me though is that they’re using ‘men/man’ as the default. It puts men on a pedestal and makes anyone else (WOMEN) out to be lesser ie ‘non-men’.
If this happened in any other context people would rightly be furious.
If we started describing people of colour as ‘non-whites’ there would be an outcry and rightly so, because it 1) frames whiteness as the default and therefore superior, and 2) it would be a huge step back in terms of social progress.
People of colour fought long and hard to be recognised as equal citizens, and so to call them ‘non-whites’ and make them othered would be an insult to the progress made.
Equally women have fought long and hard to be recognised as equal citizens, white women have only had the right to vote for about a century, women of colour have had that right for even less time. So to now start referring to women as ‘non-men’ (ie not the default. and therefore lesser) is a frankly massive insult to the generations of women who fought long and hard for women to be seen as equal entities.
So let’s not mince words; Lesbians are WOMEN who love WOMEN, end of discussion.
If you can't find what's wrong with this definition your are homophobic and sexist. This loser used the word male/men 4 times and female/women 0 to describe BEING A LESBIAN.
maybe the actual reason is that your conscience was trying to dissuade you from telling your girlfriend you want to cheat on her
