being a feminist means thinking womyn deserve equal treatment and opportunities as men. thinking womyn dont deserve equal rights as men is misogynist, not being a feminist is misogynistic

maybe if you’re not a feminist then you’re just a misogynist and like… I don’t think there’s any “in between”. because feminism is not hating men. feminism is not thinking men deserve less than women. feminism is not rooting for manipulative females. feminism is not thinking abusive women should not face any consequences if their victims are men. feminism is not girlboss. feminism is not women superior. feminism is the belief that men and women are equal, so if you’re not a feminist then I think it’s safe to assume you think women deserve less than men, and that sounds misogynistic to me idk

if the definition of "womyn" is "an adult human person with a desire to be in accordance with the particular set of cultural and social norms typically associated with the female sex",

what are the things associated with us that youre talking about? thats just a fancy way of upholding gender stereotypes.

further, if a womyn from an area/time that still views womyn as property said she wanted to be in accordance with how the MALE sex is treated in her society to escape her oppression, would that make her transgender?

would that make her less of a womyn?

Hiya! Fellow teenage radfem (tho about to become an adult so take that as you will)!

Don't let others discredit you because of your age! However, don't feel pressured to have the same ideas forever. Keep questioning things, keep thinking critically, and if you change your mind then don't beat yourself up obmver "having been young" or whatnot. Doing all of these things is what led me to becoming a radfem and gender critical and I now feel that I have a lot less cognitive dissonance lol

Also, please remember to take breaks from radblr, since it can be a lot especially for all of us on the younger side.

Wish you all the best!

thankyouu

it's really nice and interesting to see a young radfem like me (15) on this website ^_^! most of the ones i've seen are well into their adult years and it almost intimidates me. thats why i typically just lurk lol. but i do have to say that radical feminism can be a truly agonizing thing sometimes, especially for a young girl. it hurts to acknowledge the gruesome extent of the patriarchy; it's confusing and painful and, to me, it can require a large degree of mental fortitude to not just break down sometimes. i say all this to encourage you to take breaks if you need it. you're young, i'm young, and i know serious topics like these can't always feel very good to think about. so rest, have fun, and find an inner peace you can come back to if things are stressful. best of luck to you 💕 :3

ive definitely noticed that too, and just with tumblr in general 😭 hope ur having a good day!

Just wanted to say the fact that you’re learning about radical feminism at your age is incredible. There will be many things in life that make it seem like giving in to adhering to the patriarchy or dating men is safer or easier, but you know reality. Stay fast in your belief and try to share it with other girls around you, it will help and it’s important. Most of all do what you love, especially at your age it’s easy to get bogged down by these harrowing statistics and headlines. Take time away from social media to just be.

Buying sex is an oxymoron. Sex by definition is consensual. If a prostitute wanted to have sex with a john, he would not have to pay her for it.

This is why prostitution is rape. Prostitutes do not want the sex. They need the money, they need food, housing, and childcare. Even to the prostitutes who have “chosen” sex work, it is most often a question of “Would you be raped for your children to eat?” or “Would you be raped to keep your home?”

In the public opinion, if you coerce a woman into letting you fuck her by offering her the resources she lacks, offering a hungry woman food or a sick woman medicine, a woman who would not have sex with you otherwise, you are a rapist.

But if you offer money to fuck her so that she can pay for those things herself, you are a feminist and she is empowered through the transaction.

Reclaiming these words is a male supremacy linguistic trick to make women participate in their own humiliation.

bitch is a slur & i dont think you know what minority means? why would trans identified males be the smallest minority ever that doesnt even help your point LMAO

+ real womyn are killed just for existing, have their bodies constantly in others conversations, and are generally targeted. id really research femicide. its a really important issue that isnt getting nearly enough coverage atm, especially cases outside the west

I would like to send all @cuttingcherub fans a large "no u"

no, literally!! they genuinely piss me off so bad because they’re over here playing the victim “bitch is a slur 🥺” “trans people don’t understand what being targeted is like 😣” while theyre literally sending threats and insults to any trans person they see and anyone defending the trans community. like babe, you’re not the victim.. you’re the abuser.. and to say that trans women don’t know what being targeted is like while they’re one of the smallest, if not THE smallest minority ever, who have been killed for just existing, have their bodies constantly in others conversations, and are targeted everyday, is genuinely just the most self centered take ever. these terfs pretend to be feminists when in reality they’re just a group with internalized misogyny and a hatred for women who are doing better than them…

the moment a man uses the word bitch to insult a womyn i loose ALL respect for him.

if society actually took womyns oppression seriously, bitch would be considered a slur. its been used to degrade womyn for literally hundreds of years now. it existed for over 4 centuries as a way to degrade and silence womyn but 20 years ago its reclaimed and suddenly everyone can use it?

western men forget that womyn were ever oppressed, even though it wasnt long ago that womyn everywhere were slaves to men.
