Opinion on this?

Tbh I am against using barbie as an example of anything, because yes it is just a movie. I haven't watched it but I'm pretty sure the thing was just a giant advertisement. However, women are more likely to be leftist and anti-draft, that is true. If you want you can use real life matriarchical societies as examples to base opinions off of (such as these https://www.unearthwomen.com/5-matriarchal-societies-where-women-are-in-charge/).

I don't think female leaders were more likely to be warmongers though. I think this is based off of observing monarchies, because they were more likely to have female rulers during instability (kings were generally the default because of well, the way the patriarchy is), which leads to war often times. Monarchs in general were also more likely to be militaristic because they were just detached, male or female.

I think monarchies are shit regardless of the gender and no I don't think women are inherently peaceful or something. In fact, gender roles expecting women to be passive is a negative thing for women, especially in this society.

On the prison data part, um, idk man I looked into it and I couldn't find it. What is the sample even from?

It's not a slur, you'll live. white cis male TRA

Hey bud we barely know each other and called you out you think that happened out of the blue? Your content followed the site and puts you with radfems, with gc radfems.

You don't like how this ends up then do better.

Look at my blog every fight has a clear point of why this shit is wrong.

Didn't want to come across like that change it, fit the posts but you won't.

The tra point is accurate as is you defending using it.

But you don't like reaction, then fix it.

I won't be the only one.

Oh no, my... radfem content put me with radfems? Shiver me timbers I had no idea.

I couldn't less of give a shit what you think. I just think you're dumb and fun to roast.

I'm not fixing something that isn't broken.

"I won't be the only one." My teeth are literally chattering rn, the dumbass army is ready to attack...?

There's nothing more to being a human than having a human body either. That doesn't mean that someone who is a human is nothing other than their body or has no personality.

And really I wonder. Did they say "being a vagina" or "having a vagina"? Pretty big difference. Like "having 2 legs" or "being 2 legs".

If you can only view female people as vaginas or some creepy shit, that's not radical feminisms' fault.

Define woman

Why

what does this sentence mean? Being against coercive rape is now conservative-minded morality?

Well yeah? Because being gay is basically innate like being left-handed. It's not like being exploited is an innate state of being. How is that comparable?

Genuinely how is it not? I'm pretty sure like 90% of sex workers want out but they can't because they need the money from it to survive. I don't think that's exactly true consent.

Accepting something just BECAUSE it's old and the status quo, is a conservative mentality. I'm clearly not against it for conservative reasons, unless you think caring about consent and the safety of women is a conservative opinion somehow. also fyi conservatives are generally fine with prostitution existing, they just hate the prostitutes.

Amazing how defenses for sex work are both the "it's the world's oldest profession" quote from a colonizer (which is so blatantly untrue that I'm amazed that anyone believes that) and also "you're a conservative and want to control women if you think coercive rape is wrong" So is it an ancient practice that we need to conserve or something new and progressive

Try making an important decision without asking anyone for advice

Spend a full day making choices as if you're already the person you want to become

Let go of one belief or habit that no longer serves you, just to see how it feels

Set a rule for yourself: every time you feel hesitation, do the thing anyway

Pick a random topic and learn about it like you’re preparing to give a TED Talk (I'd choose to talk about my art)

Make one small but bold move that shifts the trajectory of your life, even slightly

A Historical Deep Dive into the Founders of Black Womanism & Modern Feminism

Six African American Suffragettes Mainstream History Tried to Forget

These amazing Black American women each advanced the principles of modern feminism and Black womanism by insisting on an intersectional approach to activism. They understood that the struggles of race and gender were intertwined, and that the liberation of Black women was essential. Their writings, speeches, and actions have continued to inspire movements addressing systemic inequities, while affirming the voices of marginalized women who have shaped society. Through their amazing work, they have expanded the scope of womanism and intersectional feminism to include racial justice, making it more inclusive and transformative.

Anna Julia Cooper (1858–1964)

Quote: “The cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect, a party or a class—it is the cause of humankind, the very birthright of humanity.”

Contribution: Anna Julia Cooper was an educator, scholar, and advocate for Black women’s empowerment. Her book A Voice from the South by a Black Woman of the South (1892) is one of the earliest articulations of Black feminist thought. She emphasized the intellectual and cultural contributions of Black women and argued that their liberation was essential to societal progress. Cooper believed education was the key to uplifting African Americans and worked tirelessly to improve opportunities for women and girls, including founding organizations for Black women’s higher education. Her work challenged both racism and sexism, laying the intellectual foundation for modern Black womanism.

Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)

Quote: “We are all bound together in one great bundle of humanity, and society cannot trample on the weakest and feeblest of its members without receiving the curse in its own soul.”

Contribution: Frances Ellen Watkins Harper was a poet, author, and orator whose work intertwined abolitionism, suffrage, and temperance advocacy. A prominent member of the American Equal Rights Association, she fought for universal suffrage, arguing that Black women’s voices were crucial in shaping a just society. Her 1866 speech at the National Woman’s Rights Convention emphasized the need for solidarity among marginalized groups, highlighting the racial disparities within the feminist movement. Harper’s writings, including her novel Iola Leroy, offered early depictions of Black womanhood and resilience, paving the way for Black feminist literature and thought.

Ida B. Wells (1862–1931)

Quote: “The way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them.”

Contribution: Ida B. Wells was a fearless journalist, educator, and anti-lynching activist who co-founded the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Her investigative reporting exposed the widespread violence and racism faced by African Americans, particularly lynchings. As a suffragette, Wells insisted on addressing the intersection of race and gender in the fight for women’s voting rights. At the 1913 Women’s Suffrage Parade in Washington, D.C., she famously defied instructions to march in a segregated section and joined the Illinois delegation at the front, demanding recognition for Black women in the feminist movement. Her activism laid the groundwork for modern feminisms inclusion of intersectionality, emphasizing the dual oppressions faced by Black women.

Sojourner Truth (1797–1883)

Quote: “Ain’t I a Woman?”

Contribution: Born into slavery, Sojourner Truth became a powerful voice for abolition, women's rights, and racial justice after gaining her freedom. Her famous 1851 speech, "Ain’t I a Woman?" delivered at a women's rights convention in Akron, Ohio, directly challenged the exclusion of Black women from the feminist narrative. She highlighted the unique struggles of Black women, who faced both racism and sexism, calling out the hypocrisy of a movement that often-centered white women’s experiences. Truth’s legacy lies in her insistence on equality for all, inspiring future generations to confront the intersecting oppressions of race and gender in their advocacy.

Nanny Helen Burroughs (1879–1961)

Quote: “We specialize in the wholly impossible.”

Contribution: Nanny Helen Burroughs was an educator, activist, and founder of the National Training School for Women and Girls in Washington, D.C., which emphasized self-sufficiency and vocational training for African American women. She championed the "Three B's" of her educational philosophy: Bible, bath, and broom, advocating for spiritual, personal, and professional discipline. Burroughs was also a leader in the Women's Convention Auxiliary of the National Baptist Convention, where she pushed for the inclusion of women's voices in church leadership. Her dedication to empowering Black women as agents of social change influenced both the feminist and civil rights movements, promoting a vision of racial and gender equality.

Elizabeth Piper Ensley (1847–1919)

Quote: “The ballot in the hands of a woman means power added to influence.”

Contribution: Elizabeth Piper Ensley was a suffragist and civil rights activist who played a pivotal role in securing women’s suffrage in Colorado in 1893, making it one of the first states to grant women the vote. As a Black woman operating in the predominantly white suffrage movement, Ensley worked to bridge racial and class divides, emphasizing the importance of political power for marginalized groups. She was an active member of the Colorado Non-Partisan Equal Suffrage Association and focused on voter education to ensure that women, especially women of color, could fully participate in the democratic process. Ensley’s legacy highlights the importance of coalition-building in achieving systemic change.

To honor these pioneers, we must continue to amplify Black women's voices, prioritizing intersectionality, and combat systemic inequalities in race, gender, and class.

Modern black womanism and feminist activism can expand upon these little-known founders of woman's rights by continuously working on an addressing the disparities in education, healthcare, and economic opportunities for marginalized communities. Supporting Black Woman-led organizations, fostering inclusive black femme leadership, and embracing allyship will always be vital.

Additionally, when we continuously elevate their contributions in social media or multi-media art through various platforms, and academic curriculum we ensure their legacies continuously inspire future generations. By integrating their principles into feminism and advocating for collective liberation, women and feminine allies can continue their fight for justice, equity, and feminine empowerment, hand forging a society, by blood, sweat, bones and tears where all women can thrive, free from oppression.

Oh no you found us out

That's 100% the case, in fact I am a man too, I learned today

AMAT (Assigned Male At Tumblr)

the really ironic thing about terfs is like 70% of them are just transmisogynistic cishet men who pretend to be women online just to get a platform in transmisogynistic feminism. pretty fucked up

Look up what mirror means. You use the same arguments against asexuals that homophobes use against gay people. Basically word for word. It's insane.

I don't think that, just as I don't think it's mental illness and unnatural to not feel sexual attraction. I'm mirroring your language.

I understand you misplaced your brain but please find it soon, I beg you.
