Forever thanks to my parents for continuously shitting on all the helpless-princess-saved-by-prince and hypersexualised-japanese-girls-do-things cartoons throughout all my childhood 🙏🏻
Did your parents forbid you from watching certain cartoons? 
Blue!
I too want to be friends with all the feminists in my phone, dms are always open :)))
Just a heads up: this is not true.
While homosexuals and gender non conforming people were persecuted by nazis, the reason Hirschfeld's institute was shut down was that he was Jewish and promoted the idea that homosexuality was not an illness, which was considered "jewish science".
It is important to remember the many victims of the Holocaust and nazism but it is also important to not bend history in order to fit a narrative.
And I'll say it again: homosexuals and gender non conforming people went through horrible things and it's important to share actual sources on that instead.
20-something socialist woman, this blog is a sharing space for thoughts and opinions because I miss being politically active (which is on hold for personal reasons - mainly getting a degree)
I'll talk mainly about feminist theory and anything related, my positions are radical - I'd love to interact with people who share (not necessarily) similar views.
Also some occasional posts on music, art and the likes, everything fiercely nonconformist.
You can call me M :)
my working theory when reading elon musk news is that he watched house of cards and didn't understand who the bad guy was
remember when as kids my male cousins would make fun of me for growing body hair before them and would get offended when I told them they were just jealous
what r ur opinions on youth liberation?
hoping I understood the question as it is quite general
I think the nuclear (and hetero-patriarchal) family model is fundamentally limiting for all people involved, especially women and youth - meaning children and adolescents (especially girls, once again).
The power that parents have over their children is deeply detrimental to their freedom and development. Violence against children is still used as an educational method, a widely accepted one, and lots of parents still consider their kids as property or, in the best case scenario, an extension of themselves. Getting out of abusive households is practically impossible, especially when economic means are lacking (and these are often the most critical situations).
In the past, I have advocated for practical measures (many of which were actually adopted in my hometown) in order to help young people gain autonomy and freedom, one of these was keeping high schools open during the afternoon (which isn't common in my country) with both organized and self-managed activities (tutoring, study rooms, psychological counsel, book exchange) in order to give kids in difficult situations a safe place for a few hours and also seek the counsel of people who could help them.
I was raised in an extremely liberal manner, my parents always treated me with respect and they managed to make me understand my responsibilities throughout life by talking to me in an age appropriate manner but never asserting their authority as adults, just as more experienced people. I'm really grateful but I realize that it's unrealistic to expect that all parents raise their kids well (despite it being their responsibility), which is why I talked about nuclear family in the beginning, I believe that true freedom can only be achieved by community.
