"Woman" charged with raping "her" elderly mother. These are not our crimes, goddamn media, report it correctly!

And you just know he's being held in a woman's prison. The mug shot reports him as female.

Lets all file one.

There is an absolute orchestra of hormones/chemicals/and processes that a womans body engineers to grow a human. It takes more than a uterus!

But this was never about science.

Should start posting TiMs in the porn sections of reddit and then crying transphobia/TWAW when they get removed.

JoanofArc5 · 2021-03-08T12:19:32+00:00

It’s not your job to create gender euphoria. Ugh.

JoanofArc5 · 2020-10-26T13:47:32+00:00

Cool! You should make it clear in the description that the "women" being depicted are not adult human females. Also, given that we know how powerful language is, I wouldn't allow "woman" to be used in the title - maybe make it in quotations? We know what women are and those are not.

I didn't see - where?

JoanofArc5 · 2020-10-18T19:47:23+00:00

Seriously - this. I have uncles who voted for Trump who will be attending my wedding (if I have one). Trump aligned himself with someone who actually has deep ties to gay conversion therapy, and a platform that doesn't think that gay people should be allowed to get married. Uncle doens't believe these things, just doesn't value gay rights over whatever he thinks that Trump gives him. No one one Reddit would boycott my wedding because I have some boomers in attendance. No one sees my Boomer uncle as a personal attack against themselves.

They only want to police the shit out of women's thoughts, still.

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-31T19:11:13+00:00

Right. Children under 18 menstruate, wtf?

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-31T19:09:41+00:00

You're right - I did feel like I had the justify it. I was also wearing it because I was out with my boyfriend. It's true that this bathing suit is typically reserved for banya days, not outdoor activities (I prefer a more sporty one for like...hiking things). But I was still excited to wear it with my boyfriend.

Thanks for catching this. I'm usually unapologetic about my sexuality.

People ignoring your words in favor of your "signals." Everyone is always talking about the signals that women send to men. Fuck off, my words are the strongest signal I can send.

Abortion rules are not about abortion, and you can't support any candidate who wants to criminalize abortion, because they don't think that women are people. Abortion is fundamentally about the control of your own body. With the exception of the military draft (rare, and extremely unpopular), there are no other rules that require you to endanger yourself for the benefit of someone else. If abortion laws were consistent, then we should force everyone to donate kidneys/livers while they are still alive because that will save lives.

Hell, you could make the argument that the best thing for humanity would be to sacrifice a small number of people because their donated organs could save six people. Six lives are better than one, right? We don't do this, because we believe that everyone has the right to live their own lives and bodily autonomy. Except those dirty sluts who got pregnant because they spread their legs.

How hard we have to work for people (men) to take us seriously. We can't just go into a business meeting and say natural words and be listened to. I am constantly thinking and rethinking about how best to present my position. Have I handled this person's ego enough? Have I made them feel important and powerful? How can I disagree with a man or tell him that he's wrong without making him angry because he feels demasculated?

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-29T14:19:54+00:00

How devastating it is to have sex that you don't want to have. It's not the same as doing some other chore you don't want to do, like the laundry. You can't just lie there and say it will be over in a few minutes. Having sex you don't want feels awful. This is our evolutionary wisdom again, because sex can have enormous costs for us (pregnancy).

I dated someone who was coercive about sex and later boyfriends just thought I was crazy/overreacting if I said that I used to bite my tongue, have the sex so my abusive ex wouldn't pick a fight, and then try not to cry the entire time.

The instinct that we have for our safety, and that the instinct teaches us to be afraid of men.

I went swimming at a lake recently and I was wearing kind of a sexy bathing suit (I lost the other one). The best rock to swim off of had a group of like 20 guys on it.

Going to the same rock wearing a bathing suit was never going to be an option for me, I wouldn't even consider it. My evolutionary wisdom tells me ABSOLUTELY NOT. We went to the other side and entered through an area that was harder to walk on.

Some men can get that if you explain it to them, but they will never have the internal instinct for it. They also don't realize that male expressions of anger (yelling, throwing things, slamming things) are TERRIFYING.

It's a reason that we can't have men in our vulnerable spaces. If our locker rooms are filled with men, women will stop going to the gym. And that will have measurable economic and social impacts.

This is the most hearbreaking thing I've read on reddit in awhile. Obviously this woman was in an abusive relationship, but...what has happened that she worries that her only value is providing sex for her partner. She's worried that because she enjoys it ("my vagina really opens up for my new partner"), it's less enjoyable for him. This is so sad. It makes me so angry that men treat women so badly that someone can think like this.

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-11T14:23:39+00:00

They can have it. Let every swimsuit model be a man. And while they are at it, let's cast them in all the porn as well.

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-09T01:07:37+00:00

I just want to upload a bunch of trans porn there. They'll know the difference between men and women FAST.

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-01T23:01:00+00:00

The thing is, if I wanted to start a subreddit that depicted TIMs getting violently beaten and raped...that would be okay, as long as I said I masturbated to it.

But talking about not wanting TIMs in our rape shelters? Not okay.

JoanofArc5 · 2020-07-01T21:45:23+00:00

I think there was pressure from advertisers - similar to what's going with FB right now
