tip: break up. thats so incredibly dehumanizing
The fact people are giving her advice that isn’t “don’t do anything you’re not comfortable with or into” is why women will never be free
I find it interesting how, when you criticize Islam for misogyny, they call you a bigot and "Islamophobe" and tell you it has nothing to do with the religion but with the culture of the geographic region, regardless of what their "holy" book says; however, when you criticize the people of a certain geographic region for their misogyny, they call you a racist, xenophobic bigot and tell you it has nothing to do with the region and instead with the dominance of Islam there and that not everybody there practices Islam. Seems like they just want you to shut up and to not call out misogyny.
so im not the only one who really wants to do this and just see how random people live
in barbieland, where everything was perfect for women, men were safe. they didn't suffer, they took full part in society, they just weren't the "main characters". but when Barbieland was captured by men, women were instantly in danger. they began to be held for service and objectified.
the authors conveyed the essence very well and clearly, which not everyone understood

insanity
Nobody really talks about how lonely it can be as a radfem, especially how alienated you feel from other women. The continuous betrayal and ridicule you’ll experience from the same people who agree with surface-level feminist analyses is so disheartening.
You’re eager to criticize poor male behavior yet you also vehemently deny real-world oppression that we all suffer from? Acknowledging the wage gap and sexual violence statistics is all fun and games but deconstructing anything beyond that is somehow taking things too far? Do you not see the irony in condemning things like the cosmetic industry while degrading other women who choose not to shave?
I want to know at what point they think the oppression of women starts and stops. Do you genuinely believe that thousands of years of misogyny simply disappears overnight? Is it truly the case that your father, your brother, your boyfriend have miraculously been deprogrammed and it’s all other men that are the problem?
Everyone wants to shit on men until it comes time to reconcile with the fact that the majority of them actively and intentionally contribute to maintaining a patriarchal society. Then it just gets too real
I hate organised religion and I'm tired of pretending that I don't.
FUCK
