Maybe Subconsciously But A Lot Of People Really Do Not Believe Women Are Intelligent Enough To Be Funny

When you choose "I'm bald" on a poll this is what you're saying

no amount of women hating men on the internet will compare to the acts of misogynistic violence men commit. you can control the media you want to consume, you can not control the acts of others out in the real world. stop comparing women posting “i hate men” to men killing women out there. misandry isn’t real.

One thing that rarely comes up in online radfem spaces, and one which shows the real generational disconnect of women, is health information about menopause and how understudied it is.

Did you know:

-Menopause can cause drastic suicidality and increases in mental health crises?

-Menopause can cause your skin to thin and tear?

-When menopause happens and what to do if it comes early to protect your bone health? (HRT, which can be prohibitively expensive and is controversial)

-Menopause can change the pH of your vulva and vagina and require medical washes?

-Brain fog is often a symptom, and so are memory lapses?

-Women in menopause are gaslit about the severity of their symptoms?

-Perimenopause often lasts several years?

-Hot flashes can be debilitating and painful?

-Your hair often thins?

-Post-menopausal bleeding is a typical sign of cancer that women are not educated on and is often missed?

-Migraines and UTIs can increase in severity and frequency?

-You may experience a burning mouth?

-Painful cystic acne often appears?

-Decreased estrogen means less lubricated joints and often is the beginning of arthritis?

-Your body may not produce enough keratin for your nails to not crack and break painfully?

-Some women can experience panic attacks?

-It can cause tinnitus?

-Lupron can chemically induce menopause?

-Almost all studies on aging do not account for menopause?

I know part of this is about the general age on this website, but I also think it says something about our culture that women’s bodies go through two extremely significant changes and our society is only really interested in the one that it perceives as preparing our bodies for sex and pregnancy.

I will not call a male "she"; thirty-two years of suffering in this androcentric society, and of surviving, have earned me the title "Woman"; one walk down the street by a male transvestite, five minutes of his being hassled (which he may enjoy), and then he dares, he dares to think he understands our pain? No, in our mother's names and in our own, we must not call him sister.

Men defaced this art wall in Melbourne of missing/murdered women.

Women are the ones being killed and brutalized, but it’s a war on men by telling them what they did.

I don’t have too much to say on this. I feel so upset.

The girls who tweet shit like “I’m toooooo pretty to work omg” are getting sent to the assembly lines first

you could say something as simple as "women shouldn't be slaves" and there would definitely be man in your comments telling you that you deserve to be raped
