I Hate That Being Seen As Equal, Or Even As Human Beings Is At An All Time Low Because Of The Porn Industry.

I hate that being seen as equal, or even as human beings is at an all time low because of the porn industry. We live amongst a generation of men who’s main interactions with women are wanking off to us on a screen, 100% designed for their enjoyment.

Everywhere I look, social media, adverts, art, the news, our humanity is stripped away. They use our bodies to sell products. They buy our bodies in prostitution and surrogacy. They call us [organ] owner instead of woman. They over sexualise us and give us no personality in their art and stories. We aren’t seen as human with our own thoughts and lives away from men. Our heartbeats don’t matter.

Don’t you want to go apeshit

thread from ContrarianQuinn on Twitter about her experience in the sex industry, you can read the rest here

And men, on average, have more free time than women, (Sources: here, here, and here) so you would think they would be the ones doing more interesting things with it. But no, instead women just do everything and then get super creative with our free time and then we get burnout because we don't get any extra time to just lounge around and do nothing.

Men are boring.

Women's free time as told by Rapunzel GIFs:

It's so wild how when you ask ppl about how they like to spend their free time it's always men going "sports and games" and women like "oh i dunno i like to dance and paint and play music and bake and write and sing and draw and cook food and read and tend to my plants/pets and make crafts" yet women are stereotyped as vapid??? ppl will debate you about whether women ever did anything in world history?? helloooooo????

I wish I hadn't been socialized to think that smooth legs are sexy. I wish I hadn't grown up trading stories with friends about the best ways to get absolutely baby smooth legs in the summer. I wish every magazine I've ever read hadn't shown me models with hairless legs and underarms and Brazilian waxes. I wish my friends hadn't asked with shock "you don't shave your bikini area?!" in tenth grade, while we changing in the same room. I wish I hadn't immediately conformed to meet that expectation. I wish that every swimsuit I looked at online wasn't on a body hairless model. And while I hate the idea that women's worth is equated with their looks, I still wish someone had told me that body hair is beautiful.

Onlyfans is a pyramid scheme that makes women lie to, groom and pimp each other out but please go on about how empowered you are ♡

Also no the normal person won’t make 1000+ bucks each week you are not a famous influencer who doesn’t even have to post full nudes your are just one of many….. on the other hand the normal person will most certainly screw up all their mental health thanks to the squalid things they’ll have to do online for random men who don’t value them any more than a sex toy ✧*。

I really like the way this was worded. Human compassion is so important. We were learning about authentic leadership in my leadership and policy class yesterday, and my professor made a big point about how good leaders are deeply aware of how they think and behave and how they are perceived by others. Understanding the way we communicate can have a big impact on what audiences we reach, and the end message of this post is especially resonant to that point, that the rights of one women are the rights of all.

So someone I won't name has been reblogging posts from me and tagging them as "Why I hate trans people" and commenting things like "I will die before I support trans people" and while I'm uninterested in having an unproductive argument with her, I wanted to address this on its own because it's important.

I do not hate trans people.

I really truly mean that. I'm not trying to bend for the TRAs or whatever, that is my genuine real belief as a moral person. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the energy. I hate trans ideology. I hate the perpetrators of trans homophobia and misogyny. What I don't hate is the average trans person though.

I don't hate butches who were pressured into he/they. I don't hate gnc girls who see transition as the only acceptable way to be themselves. I don't hate girls with body dysmorphia who got swept up into this movement without a care for their own well being. And I don't hate gay men who work as transgender sex workers to survive after being kicked out. I use the word terf sarcastically since it's flung at me so much but I am not actually trans exclusionary. Trans people are included in my feminism. And even in the case of males who are not included, they're still included in activism I care about outside feminism. I still care. I want them to have safety and rights and to be free from violence and homophobia. I am not a one issue gyn. Due to echo chambers and brainwashing most trans people have no idea about most of the terrible stuff trans ideology leads to and don't realize they're wrong or hurting anyone. When we're online, constantly exposed to this horrible stuff that's usually hidden over and over again, it's easy to forget that most people who call themselves trans are just people with mental health issues who don't know any better, especially TIFs. So I will not die before supporting a trans person because TIFs are a part of my feminism too, and I genuinely believe most would not support this if they knew it was happening and were not so thoroughly brainwashed. Not most as in most you see yelling at us on tumblr or twitter. Most as in most in the real world offline.

So if you're genuinely here because you just hate trans people, and not because you love women and love liberation and freedom and human rights? I'm not with you. We are not on the same team. I am anti-trans ideology because I am pro-woman, because I am pro-LGB. It comes from a place of love and anger for injustice. If your main concern is that you think literally all trans people are gross dirty perverts obsessed with raping and killing, and that none of them deserve help or understanding or even human decency, you found the wrong blog. I was once one of those people before I learned, and it took a long time and a lot of work to overcome the conditioning. This is a hill I can and will die on.
