this is not a debate sub! We will get around to making the debate sub for anyone with questions about gender critical ideas or radical feminism. We are migrating over from Reddit after the bannings.

Female is Not a Feeling. We won't go down quietly.

Re-forming wherever we can: Spinster.xyz

Feminism is the movement to liberate women from patriarchy. We stand up for the rights of women to control our own bodies as individuals and to control women-only spaces as a class.

Women are adult human females. We do not believe that men can become women by 'feeling' like women. We do not condone the erasure of females and female-only spaces, the silencing of critical thinking, the denial of biological reality and of sex-based oppression. We oppose the 'cotton ceiling' and the pressure on lesbians to have sex with men. We resist efforts to limit women's reproductive autonomy. We condemn the men who exploit and abuse women in prostitution and pornography.

"Women do not decide at some point in adulthood that they would like other people to understand them to be women, because being a woman is not an ‘identity.’ Women’s experience does not resemble that of men who adopt the ‘gender identity’ of being female or being women in any respect. The idea of ‘gender identity’ disappears biology and all the experiences that those with female biology have of being reared in a caste system based on sex." - Sheila Jeffreys, Gender Hurts

There is a lot written about how the transformation of Europe from feudalism into either mercantilism or capitalism came with a change in the arts and culture. I think in hindsight it was an attempt to re-write history and cut off the past from the present. I think if people who are talking about "late stage capitalism" are right, then it is time to erase the past from the present. People using old definitions, like "woman", are being made obsolete by the social engineers. It was never about "hate", but I wonder what the world will look like when the obsolete realize what is going on.

(editing to add two things: 1) the above is very pessimistic sounding. I hope that changes. 2) I'm a refugee from GC Guys. I know I need to leave here, and I will ASAP. I feel like solidarity is needed right now)
