*anachronistic in said egalitarian country.
if your fight for juridical justice is based on another country, it’s productive and noble.
but inside egalitarian juridical systems, the inequality is still very much real both culturally and socially, and is impacting people daily.
this is obviously true, but i don’t like the precedent it’s setting for the discourse. feminism is still needed even in the most egalitarian countries.
a lot of western feminism is stuck in a «juridical equality» mindset which i’d almost deem anachronistic. 1/2
gf doesn’t believe when i say i saw a giant caterpillar in our bathroom. told her to look for it and it was gone
so now it’s in there hiding somewhere😭 kill me
@Hereward99@hecubian_devil a movement needs both types of people imo. you need the unyielding group who never backs down, but you also need the negotiators who can open up the first door towards understanding.
@hecubian_devil you’re right. if the goal is to eventually make as many people as possible understand us, we need to build some provisional bridges of compromise.
Gender is really kicking cis people in the ass lmfao this whole biphobia and now transphobia discourse has made it so clear people do not understand how they experience gender because the propaganda is soooooo good yall fall into the biology trap REPEATEDLY
i know the practical use differs form it’s etymological roots. i just personally think it reinforces the binary sex system. it’s also a term coined within that framework. we should move past that. we should linguistically catch up to the biological and social complexities
it’s pretty much the same for the people experiencing it. however, i disagree with your other take that bisexuality is the better term
bi means two. theoretically it excludes every non-binary person. pan is the better term as it doesn’t have an inherent gender limit
my life has been slightly better since he died. the memes are funny and i don’t have to see his awful takes anymore
i think a pure utilitarian would agree
in general i hate when queer people import straight discourse. “men vs women” talk is built on cishet stereotypes that don’t fit most of us. my experience is that most queer people have done the introspective work to not have the toxic opinions and behavior of cishet people.
