Ok Heres My Hot Take: Women Can Make Whatever Fictional Content They Want I Trust Them To Still Be Normal

I recently did a class project on the female body and how to gain confidence as a woman. Basically I told my class that their worth isn’t based on beauty and I also talked about all the cool stuff women’s bodies can do and how it works. I explained things like cellulite and why women have it (because our bodies need it to keep us alive because we’re important. It’s the reason men don’t have it ;) ) and how the vagina is a self cleaning system. I talked about the beauty industry. I talked about how the women in my class are allowed to take up space and be loud. I talked about fordyce spots and how they’re normal and I talked about cutting toxic people out of their life who deserve it. They even listened to me when I talked about shaving and makeup not being a choice, and they all agreed that it’s damaging to your self confidence to be afraid of living naturally with hair and no makeup.

I made a small zine decorated with embroidered uteri and felted vulvas in different shapes and sizes to show that all vulvas are different. I also put in my whole presentation as well as a few paragraphs on why pornography is harmful with all my sources. I left some pages blank so people could write stuff down and after they were done writing in it I read stuff like “I have a vagina and I’m proud” and tbh it was amazing. I’m so glad I was able to help my classmates out and I also did this all while two libfems in my class who hate me because I’m a “terf” watched, and they could do nothing about it.

I poured two months of work, researching and preparing into this project and it paid off exactly how I wanted it to. After class people were coming up to me to say how amazing they felt, how they learnt so much about themselves, how they’re less ashamed of their bodies because of me. Every time I think about my project, I feel so accomplished and I’m so glad I’ve impacted at least one woman’s life for the better.

An activist from SCUM, a French radfem activist group, crashed the red carpet at the Cannes festival to call-out surrogacy, often used and promoted by movie stars.

Btw she's the same one who did a similar act last year.

when a woman views the world in a female-centric way, she's biased and unreasonable and emotional and illogical, but a man who upholds the male-centric status quo believes himself to be totally neutral and uninfluenced by male supremacy

Not trying to go on a rant (and yet already ranting) but I’m sick of people faking that “granddaughters of the witches you couldn’t burn” isn’t an AWESOME feminist catchphrase, and branding it as white feminism because “Karen your granny is a christian conservative” like yesss it’s true my granny is a christian conservative but she also secretly had her tubes tied in an illegal clinic because my grandpa was against birth control, and my great-grandma ran away from home at 15 because her parents were against interracial marriage, and my great-great-grandma fled her country because there were no job opportunities for poor women there, and my other grandma also fled her country because her boyfriend tried to force her to have an abortion and she wanted to have her baby, and my mom never married and chose to raise a child on her own, and I am a feminist butch lesbian, and this is what this quote is about, it’s not about your granny being pagan, it’s about valuing your matrilineal lineage of subversive women, even if their subversion was minimal, because they could have been killed or maimed any time by men for not conforming to gender roles even in the slightest way, after all, the witches who indeed were burned were more often than not also just regular, mostly christian conservative, women that somehow pissed off a man

i’m sorry but it is 2023 some of you NEED to let go of this belief that appearance and morality are linked you can not keep living in this disney world where all bad people are ugly and all good people are beautiful you can not

"radical feminism helps patriarchy stay in power" yeah.. you're right being pro abortion, anti porn, anti sw, anti beauty standards helping patriarchy very well.

and sticking to gender stereotypes which patriarchy loves, denying same sex attraction and sending women death and rape threats is probably very anti patriarchy

no i dont think women starving themselves and reconstructing their entire faces with makeup and plastic surgery is feminism and female empowerment
