do this thing !!!!!!
I made a "which mutual am I" thing so here you go💥💥💥
This was fun to make actually :]
Why is "patriarchy affects men too" always about men feeling ashamed of crying and never about gay (or "effeminate") teenage boys being subject to violence and corrective therapy by their families?
I'm all in favour of discussing how conforming to gender roles is a core belief of patriarchal ideology and gender non-conforming people (men too) are subjected to patriarchal violence.
But strangely "feminism is for everybody" is always about watering down feminist issues.
Feminists have never treated men the way mysoginists treat women, so yeah, I think this was abundantly clear.
Hello there! Dear tumblr user, did you know that "men as a class hold privilege and power over women" and "men are human beings who deserve basic decency" are two stances that can coexist :)
Women's day coming up can't wait to answer "I'll be happy when you stop killing us" to all men who tell me "happy women's day!!!!"
I'm painting some of my jackets, design suggestions warmly encouraged (especially women/feminism related)!!!!!!!
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
"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
I am once again asking for The Feminists in My Phone's blessing for my exam today
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
Bring back women learning self-defense as an anti-fascism movement
Just saw the most frustrating post about "bringing back red lipstick as an anti-fascism movement" - the male CEOs of every major cosmetics company would LOVE that. You wouldn't be sticking it to any fascists by conforming to sexist beauty standards. Save your money, save your time, and fight fascism by, you know, standing up to fascist leaders and policies. Don't buy lipstick.
sorry I did a little dance after finishing an exam today I will go back to being mysterious and cool and tough asap
