teaching girls that they have no worth outside of their redemption by a god who is mainly interested in their obedience, who requires that they only evince positive emotions, and who inflicts trials upon them to improve them morally, prepares them to be abused in any possible way by their husbands

About Ancient Greece, I think the misunderstanding is that they simply just weren’t as homophobic as other cultures whereas in reality they just hated women so much that they had “no homo” gay sex. They were so misogynistic that they were androphilic, in my opinion.
oh yes I’ve heard of that! they absolutely hated women true
Anon are you me?
Lmao that’s my theory too.
no theory required!
love between two men (an older man and a younger man/an older man and a boy, penetrator and penetrated ALWAYS) was seen as the only love with the potential to be real love
women existed as men’s property. the older man in a greek homosexual relationship had a wife who existed as a broodmare to be penetrated by him in order to have and raise his children. (and when the younger man/boy grew up, he was expected to get a breeding slave himself and become a penetrator, both of her and in his own relationship with a younger man.) any woman who was not married had no way to support herself other than prostitution, AKA becoming public rather than private (marriage) property and existing as a vessel for male pleasure rather than a vessel for male children
a man and a woman (and obviously a woman and a woman) could not be “in love” because women were not full people. the only love in ancient greece was between two men, because they were two full people who could experience full emotions and connections. women were not seen as human enough for that. and even that male love was inherently unequal
so yeah anyone talking about how ancient greece was great because of its “acceptance of homosexuality” doesn’t know what they’re talking about lmao
thank u for this
DO YOU SEE WHY I DESPISE THE ANCIENT GREEKS???
I am so damn tired of people worshipping the Ancient Greeks as enlightened just because homosexual relationships between men like that existed.
Like in art school we were talking about the 19th century and how in college circles the professors would try to emulate the greek homosexual love by having sexual relationships with students and I couldn’t believe at how it was being framed as enlightened and groundbreaking and other shit from my goddamned teachers. Pederastry and shit, just say they are fucking pedophiles, Christ! Just say they got off on the power imbalance between an old man dominating a young man. Just say they fetishized youth. I am so tired of this worship of creepy fucking behaviour just because what we consider to be great men engaged in it.
Fuck off.

When Planned Parenthood refers to me as a “vagina owner,” the only images I imagine are Buffalo Bill type scenes of men worshipping their collections of vaginas they stole from the women they murdered. Or men who keep women as sex slaves. If I didn’t have the context behind that phrase, I would have zero idea that it referred to me or my body parts.

it’s so bizarre but in 1500s England and other parts of Europe a torture device called the scold’s bridle aka brank was used to silence women who were considered “common scolds” basically women who were considered bitches gossips and loudmouths and when you were wearing this thing u couldn’t talk or eat or your tongue would be pierced and you would bleed to death.. and some of these branks look like those stupid BDSM devices not to shove feminism up all your asses but like that bondage stuff has actual precedent in real torture devices that’s rly fuckin creepy. so when a guy calls you a shrill bitch and tells you to stfu be like fuk u can’t shove a brank in my mouth anymore ur getting curb stomped biatch

Isn’t reducing women down to their genitalia inherently sexist
@partyshadow Isn’t reducing women down to gender stereotypes and immeasurable feelings inherently sexist?
Isn’t pretending that women are disconnected from their biology an insult to their intelligence?
Aren’t you tired of asking stupid questions?
@partyshadow are yall ever going to come up with some new bullshit? Is calling a library a “building” reducing it to a bunch of bricks? Or are yall just salty that pointing out that women have vaginas means any creature with a penis isn’t a woman? I think it’s the latter.
This rhetoric is insulting to women
They use it to try and embarrass women for knowing we are female and rejecting gender roles and transgenderism
The “walking vaginas” rhetoric is a sneaky to call women cunts
What does it even mean to “reduce a woman to a vagina”?? I want a formal definition.
This should be used to refer to the straight men who look at women and see a body to fuck, without any relevant humanity or wants and needs. How is that the same as highlighting a defining characteristic of a group??
A woman can have a vagina and still be a full human being, shocking I know
This is the logical conclusion of gender blind ideology. Any differences between the oppressed and the oppressor will be treated with contempt and acknowledging any differences is bigotry but only if you acknowledge the oppressed class’s innate traits. The oppressor’s bodies are not treated as an other. Male is standard. Female is marked.
In order for gender blind ideology to work you need to ‘equalise’ people by erasing anything that makes them different. To be equal you must be the same. Under this worldview femaleness is an abberation that is an affront to their understanding of equality.
The constant degradation of women and our femaleness is not just rhetoric. They really can’t imagine a whole woman without her denying her femaleness because they see women as disconnected body parts. Acknowledging our anatomy is “reducing to genitalia” (ignoring the other undeniably female body parts we have) is seen as degrading because female anatomy is an insult to them. Being female is degrading to them. If we openly acknowledge we are female trans activists believe we are degrading ourselves. They truly believe women are inferior.

A 6-year-old girl and a male fetus were killed in a car crash. The compensation for the fetus was much higher.
The 4-year-old’s case is a rare public look at one corner of the American legal system that explicitly uses race and gender to determine how much victims or their families should receive in compensation when they are seriously injured or killed.
As a result, white and male victims often receive larger awards than people of color and women in similar cases, according to more than two dozen lawyers and forensic economists, the experts who make the calculations. These differences largely derive from projections of how much more money individuals would have earned over their lifetimes had they not been injured – projections that take into account average earnings and employment levels by race and gender.
In one case, when a 6-year-old girl and a male fetus were killed in the same car crash, the settlement for the fetus was calculated to be up to 84 percent higher than the girl’s, according to court records.
For real, it is ACTUAL BULLSHIT to say that sex and gender are the same thing. It is misogyny. It is sexist. It is bullshit.
That male fetus was not “appraised” as having a life worth 84% more than that living, breathing, girl with experiences and memories and laughter because the fetus “identified” as a boychild. He was appraised as having more worth because he was male. Before he was fucking BORN.
Feminism is about the fact that women are not considered to be whole human beings. It is about doing the work of having our humanity represented. The reason–the ENTIRE reason–we are not considered human is because of our bodies. Our sex. We cannot fight for our freedom without recognizing the basis for our oppression.
Gender is not sex.
Sex is not a performance.Gender is a bunch of bullshit rules invented to explain why the female sex should be treated as inferior to the male sex.
This is real. It happens. Sex affects how we see ourselves and our lives. It literally affects our WORTH (monetarily speaking). Do not let gender make you unable to effect any change for women and girls.
Think and rise.
But the judicial system favors women and girls!
I’m still in fucking shock that a non-sentient fetus is considered more than a woman on such a large scale that this headline had to exist.
