  • I have yet to meet a woman I’m close enough friends with who doesn’t have a personal sexual assault story. Not a harrassment story, an SA story. Could just be bad luck but i don’t think it is. It also lines right up with the statistic that 3/4 women get sexually assaulted before 30 (that stat is from memory, but I’ll try and track it down in a bit.)

    I believe It is much worse than you think.

    EDIT: so on the stat I popped: NSVRC says 1 in 5 women in their lifetimes and RAINN says 1 in 6 in their lifetime. It’s been a while since i’d read that stat so it makes sense it’d be off.(though it is disappointing just how far off it ended up being, big whiff on my part) Those stat pages also have numbers for men as well

    Well, that’s because TERFs are posers that don’t know any of radical feminism’s actual theory.

    It’s kind of like how anarchocapitalists call themselves ‘libertarians’. They are entirely just muddying the waters either out of sheer ignorance or active malice.

    I think you need to read up more on what radical feminism is. It is more down the rabbit hole than you’re describing.

    It’s not the flipping of society to place women in men’s roles. it’s the eventual elimination of man-woman destinction entirely. Their end goal is for genitals to eventually not matter culturally. They attack ‘The Patriarchy’ because it is the current cultural zeitgeist that must be dismantled to make way for this liberated non-binary society they envision.











  • Regardless of whether it’s an illusion - if it is an illusion, it’s a compelling one, to the point that you can’t be perfectly confident in it being illusory.

    You should, logically, at least try to carry out change by your own hands, because the alternative is to potentially squander whatever autonomy you may have.

    It’d be like standing at an unlocked door, but being so convinced it’s locked, that you don’t even give a good try at turning the knob.
