sorry I did a little dance after finishing an exam today I will go back to being mysterious and cool and tough asap
This mentality is really telling of the fact that you haven't done any politics or activism in real life.
I've been sitting with party representatives, union representatives and fellow members of movements I belong(ed) to for almost 10 years at this point.
Not a single one of these spaces didn't cater to males.
Engage in some politics outside of tumblr and/or niche organisations, I grant you your opinion will flip in 10 seconds max.
Alright this is gonna be tough for alot of ya'll to hear but leftist and progressive spaces need to be more welcoming to men especially cis het white men. The more we speak bad about men the more men will go down the alt right pipeline. And obviously that's a bad thing. If we want men to be on our side we should create a space where they can also feel included because if we don't more men will go down the alt right and alpha male pipeline
How do you cope with misogyny? I find myself getting depressed when I realize how much everyone hates women and that the world would never change.
meh I'm just really angry all the time.
Serious answer: I try to uplift/help/support the women in my life and I engage in activism and politics, I think it's normal to grieve what we could've had if we didn't live in a patriarchal system but our actions can and will be meaningful for so many women and that's something, it's a lot actually.
Less serious answer: I think of mysoginistic men when I hit the boxing bag hehe
20-something socialist woman, this blog is a sharing space for thoughts and opinions because I miss being politically active (which is on hold for personal reasons - mainly getting a degree)
I'll talk mainly about feminist theory and anything related, my positions are radical - I'd love to interact with people who share (not necessarily) similar views.
Also some occasional posts on music, art and the likes, everything fiercely nonconformist.
You can call me M :)
All I hear is "I see other women as props and I believe being a lesbian means assimilating my behaviour to that of a straight man while upholding patriarchal sexual standards so men still find me palatable"
Who actually believes this wattpad ass story
hardest part about studying stem is not the stem it's the fucking incel classmates thinking they're special and smart

cultural relativism fans when they find out that all men-made power structures have oppressing women as a core principle: 😱😱
me: yeah I think all religions are bad and oppressive of women and we should hold them accountable for that.
libfem: …..even islam???
me: well yeah all religions.
libfem: that’s soooo racist and you’re clearly a white supremacist!!! you can’t speak out against misogyny if it’s from a different culture!! 🥺🥺
i'm currently on a train and i'm surrounded by women studying various stem things, maybe we'll make it out after all
my working theory when reading elon musk news is that he watched house of cards and didn't understand who the bad guy was
