Its kinda fascinating how stories for or about men are expected to be universal but stories for or about women are shunned and criticized as being too exclusive to one demographic
Turning red is such an amazing movie and a must watch for any tween/teenager.
Openly talking about periods, body odor, mood swings, insecurities, weird crushes, fangirling, etc.
The hate this movie got from middle aged " red pilled " men was so forced cause it wasn't FOR them.
that andrea dworkin quote that goes "To right wing men, we are private property. To left wing men, we are public property. In either case, we are not considered to be humans: we are things." never stops being true
bring up even the weakest criticism of the porn industry to a left wing man and watch him start talking about women like they are sex dolls pretending is money and dick is a gift to feminism
M/f cannibalism metaphors would just be the man dehumanizing the woman till she is nothing but a cut of meat served on a plate an object to consume theres no intimacy in that
@fem1cent
Genuinely one of the most repulsive things I have ever seen I dont know how to process how distressing it is to know men like this exist and that they watch what our communities do just to find a way to turn it into a r*pe fantasy
@adorasroses
True but at the same time theres the desexualized version where the best compliment they can give a bigger woman is " she looks friend shaped" " she would give good hugs" and i feel like that is almost worse π
Something i really relate to trans women about as a lesbian is the bigoted paradox in people's perception of us where we are both a small minority group and a huge social influence that is going to destroy and oppress cishet men's sexuality and poison women with degeneracy
Having discourse over including men in lesbianism right after another discourse about a man assaulting a lesbian at a lesbian bar and a subreddit dedicated to men fantasizing about converting lesbians to heterosexuality I really think some of you are going to hell
There are lesbian who have slept with men because they were either forced, coerced, or deeply in closeted denial. Those are all traumatic experiences not legitimate sexual prospects
there's a certain genre of lesbian who's almost performatively aggressive about their hatred of men and I'd say it's harmless and cringe but the bioessentialism of it all absolutely leaves them open for terf indoctrination
@tomoyo_pocoyo
I think the Internets love of new shiny words to play with has kind of separated it from its connection to the butchfemme subculture which is sad but it wouldn't be the first time a niche subculture has its terms watered down online
if bi girls like their boyfriend they are an accomplice to misogyny and if they poke fun at their boyfriend they are harpy's incapable of love you really can't win everπ
Heterosexuals are being oppressed and shamed by the gays ββββ
Attraction to men primarily from the opposite sex are being oppressed and shamed by the gays β β β β β
@gabalexa
Also like does this apply to a supportive family member too? like is a father or brother who wants to be there for their sibling or child not allowed in? How are we even gonna implement a system to sort that do people have to take gay tests at the entrance or ..?
@sonozakiscurse
Its plain old homophobia usually but I hate to inform that it's also a genuine fetish for a certain type of straight person specifically straight men there was recently a subreddit discovered that was nothing but men having sexual fantasies about turning lesbians straight via SA
I think we both just existing challenges the idea of patriarchy as a naturalized force in the world when its actually a man made social hierarchy based on gendered exploitation and oppression and that triggers a really deep seeded fear and anger response in people
@dollshojo
right I was seeing posts saying that and it just seemed like being purposefully obtuse because yes modesty culture is bad but if you see a woman trying to do all she can to avoid being sexualized and say " oh I need to draw you with your clothes off" that's violating
My controversial opinion is I think it's good for women to have body positivity about their sex organs the vile language that is commonly used about it
@starredleaf
they keep calling her straight and then shes the most lesbian woman I have ever seen like straight women don't have that lvl of swagger don't play with me like this
@junkox3n0
I mean hes also doing blatant lesbophobia in the replies so its clear that this is less about liking lore than it is not liking that the main characters are lesbians and that the narrative centers them
@Mik3injack
The way men hide behind kink as a defense to wank to the most despicable things imaginable needs to get them taken out back like old yeller
