the amount of faith it takes to transition and believe it can get better is holier than any church
Youve never met anyone like you but youve heard people like you exist and youve heard nothing but awful awful things but. you know youre one of them. you know what you have to do. You cant do anything but pray that its better because you know you cant survive this anyways.
"why are men becoming violent misogynists" "why are young boys turning alt right" looks like someone believed too hard in Men Are Hurt By Misogyny Too
like. Be so for real . Why did misogyny exist for thousands of years as a globalized social force? Men benefit astronomically from misogyny. Under a misogynist society men have privilege, socially-tied life servants to cater to their whim that they can beat legally when they're mad. Misogyny strictly and specifically benefits men. Why wouldn't young stupid men want that. It takes incredible mental fortitude, strength of soul, and utter unselfishness to resist a mode of thinking that tells you "actually you're the pinnacle of your society and everyone should listen to you and cater to you and suck your dick whenever you want". It's fucking incredible that any men are feminists. Any infinitesimal harm that men are dealt under patriarchy is entirely outweighed by its material benefits to their specific gender.
Can men be feminists? Yes. But I'm urging you to think about how easy it is for men under patriarchy. And how individualistic and selfish American society is. It will never be the easier or safer choice for men to be feminists. It will never be "in their best interests"
Once again thinking about the “Tolkien elves are physically superior to humans in every way” thing as a disability parallel
Tolkien really said: a group of people are born with bodies that are weaker, slower, less dexterous, more breakable. They can't do many things that others take for granted. Their bodies are vulnerable and fall to wounds and illnesses that the other group is baffled by. They are physically less able and there are barriers that they will never be able to overcome. They have no magic powers to make up for this difference; they just live with it. Their lives are shorter and they will die earlier.
Still they are heroes, lovers, craftsmen, villains, musicians, warriors, poets, adventurers. Still their existences matter. They are essential parts of the universe. Their lives are meaningful and worthy of honour, however brief they may be.
I never saw it that way
10 pounds says terfs start arguing men have an unfair advantage in knitting next
I know im being "that guy" but he's crocheting. He is not knitting. He is holding a hook and crocheting. Look at the fabric. He is not knitting. Wtf has he got in his mouth tho...
I think it's a tapestry needle? Mother fucker might be that one person that sews in ends in as he goes.
That would make sense. Good for him!
The fact that a terf said “taking women jobs in the home” proves my point terfs are just the political branch of the trad wife movement
People who actually love crafts: how could the headline confuse knitting with crocheting? Uh, oh, whats he doing with that other needle? What's he crocheting? Do you think he sews in ends as he goes??? Wish I could crochet during an Olympic event
Terfs: men are occupying our SACRED knitting spaces inside our HOMES
it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.
people have invented so many different ways of rephrasing "don't transition" to sound plausibly progressive enough to bystanders that they'll think trans people are over-dramatic for reacting negatively to it.
like when will it end
realizing cis women also struggle with “passing” a lot of times and has a lot of the same issues with dysphoria trans women have (issues with putting on/losing weight, dissatisfied with bust size, not feeling “feminine” enough, etc.) has done a lot to combat dysphoria for me, cause it’s like, wow, we really have a lot more in common than we have in difference huh
terfs are starting to find this post, and i gotta say: terfs getting mad at a post that explicitly acknowledges cis women’s struggles and with notes full of cis women agreeing and talking about their own struggles and experiences really speaks volumes about how anti-feminist, and frankly misogynistic, terfs really are, that they don’t even give a shit about cis women’s struggles and experiences
the original got flagged with no way to appeal it when every contributor is deactivated but I will never let this post die. it's monday and we are getting on it cunts
