And this is why I don't trust the sudden onset of the idea that "college is a scam". It's not a coincidence that higher education has started losing its value in society's eyes now that women outperform men.
Are we really about to give up clean water & air, our national parks, our health, privacy, and autonomy so that a group of narcissistic nerds can become trillionaires?
Another rape culture indicator is "she gave it up too easy" if you both want it why should there be a struggle? The expectation of resistance to make the sex feel like a conquest is rape culture.
it’s because “feminism means supporting women’s choices!” really got to your heads in 2017 so now you all feel compelled to support women’s right to harm themselves, silence themselves, objectify themselves, and degrade themselves according to male whims
ARE WE NOTICING that nothing actually exists anymore??????? like so many physical stores are closing, everything is a subscription or an app, u can't play games without internet and u can't even guarantee that art is even made by people, like everything is just an illusion.
My roomate was attacked by her boyfriend in a jealous rage. He tried to choke her and instead of screaming or resisting she stayed calm and started to caress his face and then kiss him. This calmed him down and they spent the night together. The next morning she was on the train back to her hometown.
Men cannot even start to comprehend what women are sometimes forced to do to merely survive.
thinking about how in barbie land where everything is perfect for women, men still aren't suffering. they aren't in servitude, they aren't being objectified or harassed. they are just not the main characters. but in a world run by and for men, women are NEVER safe. that's the difference between feminists and misogynists. women just want to be left alone, while men don't see us as humans.
The narrative that feminists inappropriately insert their politics into everything while men mind their business is a lie. Men insert their politics & male agendas into jokes, television, literature, children's books & movies, toys, religion, social norms, stereotypes, cultures, traditions, classrooms, the economy, and the entire system of human living. The only difference is that the male has declared himself the voice of objectivity: to challenge man is to challenge all that is life
Women often fawn to survive men. Just to move out of their reach safely. Like a woman smiling (visibly uncomfortable) when you are creeping her out but she doesn't want to get punched, shot or stabbed.
She isn't flirting, she isn't leading you on, she is trying to SURVIVE this encounter. YOU put her in this position.
A lot of men will say “rape is bad” truthfully, but they mean “I think an evil sadist raping a virginal, likeable woman in a public park in daylight is bad”.
The minute you dig into whether a sex worker can be raped, if giving an ultimatum over sex is rape, or if having sex with a sleeping woman is rape, suddenly you get a lot of excuses for rape.
I was born in 1961 too.
And this version of the past is a myth.
Kids did have food allergies we just didn’t have the science to name them.
I lost a brother before he was two because medicine didn’t yet understand what allergy killed him.
Trans kids didn’t “not exist.”
They hid. They were shamed. Many never survived adolescence.
Violence didn’t start with social media.
Bullying, racism, misogyny, and abuse were simply normalized and ignored.
Families didn’t stay together because things were better
they stayed together because women and children had fewer choices.
And no, it wasn’t just “Merry Christmas.”
We said Happy Holidays. Season’s Greetings. Yuletide.
Nobody lost their mind. Nobody felt threatened. We just… lived.
I rode buses and subways too
they weren’t magically safer.
We just didn’t talk about what happened on them.
What really changed wasn’t people.
It was visibility.
Data replaced denial.
Voices replaced silence.
And accountability replaced nostalgia.
The past wasn’t safer.
It was quieter because suffering had nowhere to go.
I don’t want a time machine.
I want a future where we stop confusing silence with peace.
Stop being such a boomer.
sex work, porn, onlyfans, and prostitution will never be part of women’s empowerment. it's not liberating. turning women’s bodies into commodities to be bought and sold does not represent freedom it reflects the same patriarchal control that feminism was meant to dismantle.
Kendrick Lamar spoke english and had a red white & blue theme. They got mad. Beyoncé spoke english and literally did a COUNTRY MUSIC half time show. They got mad. At some point you gotta just admit it got nothin to do with the language, and everything to do with you being a racist xenophobe. 🤷🏾♂️
