So I've Just Had A Thought, And Bare With Me Because I'm Aware That This Could Be A Reach Lmao.

So I've just had a thought, and bare with me because I'm aware that this could be a reach lmao.

So it's already been brought up in radblr how the Karen meme has gone too far and demonizes women for asserting themselves and demonizes women for being middle aged, and god forbid a woman is middle aged and asserts herself!

But I was thinking about the stereotypical "Karen" haircut, which is like this:

So I've Just Had A Thought, And Bare With Me Because I'm Aware That This Could Be A Reach Lmao.
So I've Just Had A Thought, And Bare With Me Because I'm Aware That This Could Be A Reach Lmao.

and it make me think, of course the stereotypical "Karen" haircut is a short and practical haircut, not long beautiful tresses or something that's conventionally attractive and seen as beautiful to men. So the Karen meme not only demonizes women for daring to assert themsevles / be middle aged instead of young and naive, but it's also demonizing women for daring to have short practical haircuts instead of long beautiful tresses that follow typical patriarchal beauty standards.

Like I've seen comments on instagram of girls and women who previously hair long hair getting it cut into a pixie or bob and people, usually boys and men, commenting "Karen haircut lmao" or "future Karen in the making" just on normal and practical looking bobs and pixie cuts, and then this leads to the girls and women I've heard saying they want to get a bob or a pixie cut but "don't want to look like a Karen" so they keep their conventionally attractive long locks.

I'm willing to entertain the idea that the Karen meme started as a reasonable way for retail employees to vent about the abuse they get from customers, however either way now women are getting called Karens just for existing past the age of 30, or just for asserting themselves when it's reasonable and called for to assert yourself, or in this case just for daring to have short and practical haircuts. Besides, I've been working in food service and retail for the better part of a decade now and my worst customers are always men. Male customers will regularly get violent and genuinely make me afraid for my safety. Meanwhile when female customers are bad usually the worst they do is be snippy and make me feel bad about myself. Which isn't nearly the same as genuinely making me feel unsafe. And also, the worst female customers I get are often teenage girls and young women who are closely following conventional beauty standards including having long hair.

the “block op they’re a terf” movement was so thorough that now none of the libfems have any idea what radical feminism is about. I just saw a post saying that we enforce rigid gender roles and most of us are white like…not only are there a LOT of radfems of color (including myself), our whole thing is abolishing gender while acknowledging sex based oppression

I’ll Start!

I’ll start!

1. the clitoris is present in ALL mammal species, as well as many species of birds and reptiles.

2. the clitoris is mostly internal, much larger than you think, and capable of erection. It is made of the exact same tissue types as the penis. It extends from the head of the clitoris (external) all the way to the sides of the vaginal opening (internal), sometimes beyond. it also extends laterally.

3. the full, accurate anatomy of the clitoris is missing from most medical texts. Doctors who perform pelvic surgeries may not know where your clitoral nerves are, and may sever them.

4. most women cannot orgasm without clitoral stimulation, and yet many men expect them to. I suggest these men orgasm without penile stimulation.

5. Indian flying foxes have been observed engaging in cunnilingus, which increases the duration of penetrative sex. Non-human primates have also been observed engaging in cunnilingus.

6. Clitoral stimulation causes ovulation in some mammals for whom the clitoris lies inside the vaginal canal, suggesting an evolutionary function for the clitoris.

7. Some people like to hypothesize that the clitoris is vestigial, despite zero scientific evidence to back this up.

8. The scientific study of the clitoris has been severely impacted by misogyny. Misogyny is also evident in the lack of sex education on the clitoris, where it is often omitted or only discussed briefly.

9. The clitoris has over 10,000 nerve endings.

10. The clitoris is THE source of sexual pleasure and sexual function for 50% of our population.

To any lesbians/gays reading gender critical posts out of curiosity/anger --

You can disagree with everything I say, but I want you to listen to this one thing.

You're not wrong for being exclusively same-sex attracted.

Before I was gender critical, I thought something was wrong with me because I was only attracted to "afab" individuals. It's okay to not want to interact with a dick. It's okay to not want to interact with a pussy.

No matter what your friends/the internet want you to think, you can actively desire one sex. It's not hateful. It's homosexuality.

Your sexuality doesn't have to be passive. You don't have to close your eyes or pretend that the dick/vagina isn't there. You can actively want only vagina or only dick.

It's not evil. It's not wrong. It's not discrimination. You are not a bigot for not wanting to date/have sex with the opposite sex, no matter what they say.

I honestly hate how I feel the need to say this. But, I think more LG individuals need to hear it.

sometimes i think if i had access to female-exclusive spaces and was able to make meaningful connections with other girls/women (depending on my age at the time) that i wouldn't have transitioned.. bcs i'm gonna be real i really don't get along with men. and being in male social circles is just weird and uncomfortable and i don't think they're funny or interesting or all that likeable at all. i also miss the bathroom not reeking of piss and hearing old men moan when they pee (why do they do that?).
