OR People Who Don't Think Their Voices Deserve To Be Heard, Or That Feel Like The Political System Is

"all girls are bad at math" <- actual real women are discouraged to pursue stem careers and if they do, they feel an enormous amount of pressure

"all women are bad at driving" <- actual real women are discouraged to get a driving license, which limits their freedom because they depend on husbands/fathers

"all men are trash" <- that one guy who's probably trash doesn't feel venerated in the niche leftist online space which he mistakes for real life

fixed it for you.

men: *create degrading stereotypes about women, abuse women, overall harm women* women: men fucking su-

people for some reason: WOWWWW THESE GENDER WARS HAVE GOT TO STOP 🥺 THESE ARE EQUALLY AS BAD

perhaps i should journal

In Italy, it's really common for clubs (like discos) to do free entry for women, which is clearly a marketing tactic to get more disgusting males to buy a ticket because they're going to find girls there.

Is this common in other countries as well? Do young people talk about it? Here it's a huge MRA argument for "women's privilege" 🙄

and when you're equally cold they hit you with the: "oh my god don't be a bitch"

for reparation, you know

i want to shake many young women and say you can grow in private. and what i mean by that is that you don’t have to publicly self-flagellate when you don’t know something or when you say something a little insensitive or whatever else. you don’t have to report your Bad Thoughts and Ignorance to the crowd who waits to judge you. you do not have to pay penance. you do not have to issue public statements. nothing more is gained from burying yourself in shame than you could gain by thinking “oh i don’t know about this” and looking it up real quick, or thinking “hm, that wasn’t how i want to behave, i’ll do different next time” and then moving on with your life. no need to choke yourself with it.

on the radblr. straight up "Dworkin it". and by "it", haha, well. let's just say. Andrea.

finally bought "right-wing women" by Dworkin so expect commentary in the next few days 🤩

It follows Delia, a woman stuck in an abusive marriage, during the days of the first italian general elections in which women were allowed to vote, just after the liberation from fascism, while american troops were still patrolling italian streets.

It's fun and delicate while tackling important issues, and it's one of the few strongly feminist movies that managed to appeal to the general public in a country in which femicide is still a prominent issue which our government refuses to talk about.

It was Cortellesi's directional debut (she's also a co-writer and plays the main character), which is wonderful on its own but even more so as it was the most successful film at the Italian box office in 2023.

Please please please support women directors, especially those who are not american and struggle to get to an international public.

I'm begging all feminists to watch this movie if you haven't, it was huge in Italy and deserves more international recognition

Stop forgetting that being a woman is not a monolithic ensemble of patriarchal stereotypes.

So disheartening that in 2025 we still have to remind people, young people, that women are people.

"I'm not a woman, I'm just a person"

Women are people, being a woman is being a person, we are not an alien or some kind of strange invention. Women are people, being a woman is being a person.

This is an absolutely insane take for a feminist.

Women stuck in abusive and violent marriages (which are really common in countries where women rights are practically non-existent, which, coincidentally, are the countries with higher immigration rates) have a much easier time leaving these situations if they're in western countries.

Daughters of undocumented immigrants deserve to live in countries where getting an education is not illegal.

Daughters and sons of undocumented immigrants deserve to live in countries where they won't get killed, raped and imprisoned if they're gay.

I don't care how they got here, if our half-assed western democracies can save even just one woman, that's all that matters.

Gonna be honest I support deporting illegal immigrants
