The "sacred femininity" crap makes me sick. Our entire history is nothing but being raped and impregnated against our will, spending nine month sick and having our genitals ripped in agonizing childbirth, either dying bleeding out from our orifices or surviving to do it again and again. Female biology is HELL. The only thing that males have that can even remotely compare to this brutality and dehumanization is war, but that's not absolute biological reality to them.

And you are right, this fetishzising of femininity is who we got this bullshit backwards pro-misogyny "feminism" where every demeaning gender norm needs to be celebrated. It's COPE for women who can't handle reality and don't want to give up their favorite forms of female inferiority.

True af. Thank you for not sugarcoating it. I am fed up of feminists who keep on whining about change while not realising that us women have have a helluva lot to change.

Exactly. The cost of creating life is disastrous for women. And in the end, women end up being valued by their ability to tear apart their genitals. Nature is ridiculously sick and anyone who romanticizes it is batshit crazy.

IDK. I see your point, but it's not an either-or. Reality itself is full of paradoxes. That is to say, femininity isn't sacred when there is so much brutality and vulnerability involved in pregnancy and childbirth. But at the same time, creating life is in a way miraculous and powerful.

I think only seeing it as empowering is definitely a cope. But only seeing it as a burden is not entirely reflective of reality either. I have a nephew who I love dearly, he brings light to my world. But it is also true that my sister had to go through hell just to have him. Nature is weird like that.
