as a woman, my agoraphobia and fear of being alone at night/in public is 100% related to my gender. as women, we are vulnerable to men, even in safe countries and areas. dangerous men dont look for other men, they look for women.
same thing with non-binary womyn. wanting to escape womynhood is so SO normal but basically no one in our world understands being a womyn means nothing but being an adult human female. not conforming to sexist assumptions and stereotypes doesnt make you not a womyn
I wonder if women who identify as men see males as the "basic, default person" in a way. TIFs dysphoria sometimes begins with discomfort toward their breasts because they've been sexualized, or the trauma inherent in puberty and getting their period, or the expectation to wear makeup or objectifying clothing - and then they think, "Well, men don't have breasts or periods. They don't have to wear makeup or clothes like that."
I wonder if it's less about truly "feeling like a male" and more about seeing the male as the standard person who does not have all these additional problems and expectations and identifying with that.
Saw a post a bit ago that was like "Is it just me or is like every intersex blogger really angry all the time, who pissed in your cereal bro?"
Wow I fucking wonder why we're pissed off. Really. No idea. I wonder if it has to do with having to deal with
Being systematically mutilated legally
If you weren't mutilated, almost nobody has a body like yours
You can't research how your sex organs & hormones function without seeing baby surgery gore and reports of how everybody like you was "fixed"
Having the US president declare us nonexistent
Being told we're freaks all our life and we need fixing
Have a long history of being killed at birth
Slurs for you literally fucking everywhere including in a scientific context and if you point it out people call you dramatic
More slurs for you if you ever dare to try to look at adult material
Any and all fiction that is listed as intersex is all stereotypes and obvious fetish material for perisex people - There is almost no representation.
Whenever you hear about people like you they're referred to as having a sex disorder, never being intersex
People who support the entire framework of your excising and mutilation go in your comments to concern troll about how they don't actually support that
Having almost no research done into our oppression — so there is a lack of statistics about systemic intersex assault/rape/murder — people use this to tell you it isn't happening (despite nearly every intersex person you've met has reported being victimized in some way)
Strangers online think they are entitled to your full medical history
A significant number of people online think you are a porn trope and are shocked to find out tou exist in real life
Your gender identity is erased and ignored because it doesn't make sense to perisex people
You are reduced to a discourse topic
Being considered "rare" (because we are actively being suppressed with violence) — people use that "rarity" to say you don't matter
People thinking its acceptable to sexually harass you and ask you about your genitals just because they find out you're intersex
Getting told that you're exaggerating when you say your group has been the victim of a successful extermination campaign — & that is why we are so invisible
Everyone ignores all of this ^ and tells you that someone else has it worse than you so you should shut up if you ever decide to speak up.
Wow. I wonder.
A woman on tiktok makes a video about how b*tch is a slur:
the comments:
a fellow radfem minor?? this is crazyyy
also i love your blog, apologies for all the sudden reblogs and likes lmao
HII i feel like theres only a few of us on tumblr 💔 i barely see anyone under 20
I was having an argument with a TIM regarding radical feminism and he kept strawmanning what radical feminism even is by saying "terfs are upholding gender as a social construct and are against gender abolition", whenever I tell him that's not true he keeps calling me ableist insults. He also believes that actual lesbians attracted to actual women are "pussysexual"
Everytime I feel like maybe there's some good individuals among these people I keep getting proven wrong, males are truly the worst and I hope the male loneliness epidemic turns into a pandemic
Anyway sorry for the rant I just felt like doing it
I have an idea!
instead of saying 'op is terf' under every fucking post which was made by women and provides valid information you should say 'op is a rapist and an abuser' under every men post. say 'op thinks porn is cool' and 'he cheated on his wife' GET FUCKING REAL. oh but I see, you are only against oppression if it's men who suffer
as a fellow teenage radfem don't let the creeps get to you, they are the weird ones for harassing a kid as a grown adult <3
thank youu <3
them using a pic of the el salvador prisons is so ironic considering how hard theyre trying to cover up the fact the people getting deported arent getting trials
70% of them dont even know what a radical feminist is. they just see 'trans exclusionary" and piss themselves in fear of not being in the middle of every movement to exist
I wish upon all terfs/conservatives a plague of prion disease
