Black Women Are Just On Another Level

The only positive thing about JK Rowling being a terf on main was that I could detect and unfollow every single "feminist" page that defended her and were terf on main while doing so too

#JusticeForJohnnyDepp

Feminism is holding abusing women accountable in our quest for equity. Amber Heard did what shitty toxic abusive manipulative people do, she took advantage of a movement meant to lift up and empower women, used it to manipulate people and for her benefit and she will face the consequences for her actions, from abusing Johnny through manipulating the masses and an activist/resistance movement. She'll pay for it sooner or later - one way or another.

She not only damaged Johnny but a movement and millions of women who are real victims😞😞 This will be used against real victims, this will be brought up for years to back up the whole "women lie" and "women ruin men lifes" debacle, even though its been constantly proven that only 2% of allegations are false.

Sadly this high profile case falls into that 2%. But it's exactly because of that 2% that we should not believe victims blindly, we as feminist should support and stand with them in the process, but not believe them blindly, we should use our critical thinking to evaluate each scenario case by case. Each case it's different. And we should wait until we have facts and evidence.

Here's the thing about cancel culture: do I believe in stop supporting abusers? Yes. Do I believe in cancel culture? No, but I think some people should be canceled if there are facts and evidence to prove they're shity people, I can think of two examples: Kobe, who confessed to the raping of a teenager and Roman Polansky, who was tried and found guilty of rape, and he flew the country to avoid prison, he's a convict and that's the reason he sends other people to pick up his film awards. Should we stop completely our support towards this people? Definitely. But cancel culture is rushed and irrational, it has canceled people wrongly (Johnny Depp), and before time, it doesnt allow room for learning and growth - which is an intricate important part of our human nature. Education over Cancelation Reaction, guys.

Another thing is, Cancelation doesnt mean lack of empathy. We are still allowed to mourn and be sad for Kobe's passing. I see lots of you use dehumanizing language when addressing this people, and that's an issue for many reasons. But one of the greatest is we dont accept this as human atrocities when we say that only animals ste capable of this stuff, only monsters. Should we accept this behaviour as a natural part of our humanity? No. Theres nothing natural about abusing another human being. But we need to accept that it's a human thing so we can really work on it and exorcise it from our society

Men not being allowed to be emotional & rampant homophobia are the reasons men commit suicide 3.5x more than women… most men are given no outlet to feel feelings. To the point that they kill themselves.

In many cultures, ethnic groups, and nations around the world, hair is considered a source of power and prestige. African people brought these traditions and beliefs to the Americas and passed them down through the generations.

In my mother’s family (Black Americans from rural South Carolina) the women don’t cut their hair off unless absolutely necessary (i.e damage or routine trimming). Long hair is considered a symbol of beauty and power; my mother often told me that our hair holds our strength and power. Though my mother’s family has been American born for several generations, it is fascinating to see the beliefs and traditions of our African ancestors passed down. We are emotionally and spiritually attached to our hair, cutting it only with the knowledge that we are starting completely clean and removing stagnant energy.

Couple this with the forced removal and covering of our hair from the times of slavery and onward, and you can see why so many Black women and men alike take such pride and care in their natural hair and love to adorn our heads with wigs, weaves, braids, twists, accessories, and sharp designs.

Hair is not just hair in African diaspora cultures, and this is why the appropriation and stigma surrounding our hair is so harmful.

We didn’t have a word for our, as you guys call, gay/lesbian people. So we coined that word as an umbrella for all our tribes. We never said, “Well, you’re transgender. You’re bisexual. You’re lesbian.” We never knew those terms. Those are all from Western culture, you know, LGBTQ and all that. So on some level, it’s about getting rid of labels. Those terms were forced upon us.
