it’s just this recent wave of “all sexual expression is good even the problematic ones!” is crazy to me like we used to be mad about the song Blurred Lines and call it blatant expression of misogyny and rape apologia, even though it’s art. like i think it’s fine to call shallow misogynist art shallow and misogynist and i think it’s fine to deplatform it
this used to be the SJW site whatever happened to “be intolerant of intolerance” and “3 people having dinner with a nazi is 4 nazis” and “both-sides-ing only aids the oppressor” now everyone is saying shit like Actually 🤓☝️Blurred Lines is a Progressive and Leftist Anthem because it Queers the Status Quo Narrative of Consensual Sex
and it gets SO much worse than this on university campuses (which also used to be SJW hotspots).

I think more people on radblr should be talking about sweatshops, especially in the garment industry.
• Around 80% of sweatshop workers are women. Some employers force them to take birth control and pregnancy tests to avoid having to pay for maternity leave. Pregnant women are routinely denied sick leave to visit doctors, terminated from their contracts early, or left without any maternity leave when their short-term contracts are not renewed.
• Women are more likely than men to experience minimum wage violations. According to one study, "30 percent of the women workers in our sample experienced minimum wage violations, compared to 20 percent of the men". [Source: https://www.nelp.org/publication/broken-laws-unprotected-workers-violations-of-employment-and-labor-laws-in-americas-cities/ ]
• Indonesian women employees report that “girls in the factory are harassed by male managers. They come on to the girls, call them into their offices, whisper into their ears, touch them, bribe them with money and threaten them with firing if they don’t have sex with them.” [source: cleanclothes.org]
• "Toilet breaks are monitored, and some workers said they were flat out denied them, even when sick. The same goes for water and lunch breaks, both necessary to stay healthy when working 12+ hour days in a stuffy, overcrowded factory." 20% of women in sweatshops report experiencing sexual violence.

It's easy not to support this kind of abuse. Do not buy clothes first-hand. Only buy from thrift shops and second-hand apps, or find ethical brands and investigate where and how they make their clothing (hint: if a t-shirt costs $3, it's not ethical). Patch your old clothes. Consider learning basic sewing (it's not as difficult as it seems!)
I don't care how cheap Shein and Temu are. I don't care how much you think you need that specific Zara coat. Buying clothes directly harms women and avoiding it is a very easy way to help.

Japanese politician receives over 8,000 death threats after proposing free sanitary products in toilets
27-year-old Ayaka Yoshida, a Japanese politician, proposed free sanitary products in public toilets after sharing her own experience struggling to find one at city hall.
The response? Over 8,000 death threats.
One message read:
"I will kill assembly member Ayaka Yoshida, who does not bring emergency napkins with her while being old enough to know better!"
Yoshida said the harassment was meant to intimidate and silence her—and sadly, she’s not alone.
In Japan, female politicians who speak on women’s health, domestic violence, or working moms face brutal backlash.
"Any time a female politician speaks, they’re attacked," says sociologist Chisato Kitanaka.
This isn’t about pads. This is a clear reflection of a misogynistic culture that seeks to silence women and keep them from challenging the status quo.

For every nineteenth-century middle-class family that protected its wife and child within the family circle, then, there was an Irish or a German girl scrubbing floors in that middle-class home, a Welsh boy mining coal to keep the home-baked goodies warm, a black girl doing the family laundry, a black mother and child picking cotton to be made into clothes for the family, and a Jewish or an Italian daughter in a sweatshop making “ladies”’ dresses or artificial flowers for the family to purchase.
The Way We Never Were, Stephanie Coontz. 2016 edition.
The middle class husband was raping and forcibly impregnating the middle class wife and the law endorsed it until the 1990s but the left doesn’t like it when we talk about misogyny so instead we get to sit around and emphasise the relative privilege of these women while utterly erasing the fact that they legally weren’t allowed to leave, in order to teach a lesson to young Mormon women on the internet who were groomed into one of the West’s last vestiges of that society. “Protected” my fucking ass.
Edit: none of those women, including the middle class one, were allowed to vote. I hate libfems.

that stupid fucking move Sabrina carpenter does where she opens her "towel" to reveal her outfit is so annoying.. even if i was choice feminism brainwashed and loved hyper femininity it'd still fucking annoy me why does she keep doing it. It feels like when a child learns a new joke and says it every ten seconds and you're like ha ha very nice honey but on the inside you're wondering where it all went wrong in your life
no because radblr needs to redirect at least 50% of the hate chappel roan gets on here towards ms carpenter. roan is annoying but Sabrina carpenter will actually kill me I think
Radblr does criticise Sabrina Carpenter on the regular. What radblr doesn’t say often enough is that her shit is a very obvious result of the normalisation of porn (and that Chappell Roan’s shit is the result of left wing misogyny).

This part
What Rachel Zegler was harassed for saying, according to Variety:
-“and always remember, free palestine.”
-“May Trump supporters … never know peace”
-"the prince in the 1937 version of Snow White literally stalks her"
You'd think the left would have rallied around her since she's being harassed for expressing left wing views, but nooooo, left wing women are supposed to be service robots who serve The Cause and silently endure being treated like shit.
