Please reblog this even if you donāt care
Theyāre trying to erase the existence of the rape victims of Japanese soldiers in World War II because they think the reminder of their crimes might make Japan a little bit cross
Duterte, the absolute coward, is more worried about women criticizing him than actually honoring the women this country needs to remember
Please donāt let these women be silenced.

moment of silence for everyone who relied on AI chat bots for research when itās going around saying shit like this.
[image description: search that reads ācountry in africa that starts with Kā. the featured snipped is from www.emergentmind.com and reads āWhile there are 54 recognized countries in Africa, none of them begin with the letter "K". The closest is Kenya, which starts with a "K" sound, but is actually spelled with a "K" sound. It's always interesting to learn new trivia facts like this.ā /end ID]

False rape accusations are an anomaly.
True rape accusations are a norm.
Youāre, quite literally, more likely to be killed by a comet than falsely accused of rape.

People react really badly to the suggestion that you should take ābitchā seriously as a slur/censure its usage and itās abundantly clear that itās because they donāt take misogyny seriously as a form of oppression.
How many women have had that word spat at them as theyāre hit, sexually assaulted or killed by men? How many women have had the word used against them as a degrading warning, to keep them in their place? How many women have had it shouted at them out of cars, to remind them that theyāre part of a subordinate class?
Why is that substantially less serious than someone using another type of slur to degrade or terrorise?

if you search āpornā right now, you will go to porn hub, and you will see, on that very first page, videos that are sexist, racist, incestuous, fetishising lesbians, paedophilic, etc. this is the mainstream porn. this is the surface. that is what most of 96% of men saw and decided to keep looking. I donāt say things I havenāt checked and so I looked and literally the first video on pornhub offered to me was a role play of a guy fucking his stepdaughter. In my country 99% of men have watched porn. just near every man you ever meet will have watched women degraded and humiliated and fetishised. and they enjoyed it.

thereās a reason why itās āsuck my dickā and not ālick my pussyā to demean someone.
thereās a reason why we say āget fuckedā and āthatās fuckedā. fucked means: penetrated.
thereās a reason why so much language surrounding penetrative sex is so violent: smashed, nailed, ārearranging someoneās gutsā, banging, screwing.
thereās a reason why so many people have an aversion to gay sex, or even straight men engaging in passive anal acts.
thereās a reason why lesbian porn catered to men usually involves dildos and strap-ons.
thereās a reason why itās ābig dick energyā and āsmall dick energyā and not big and small pussy energy.
thereās a reason why a womanās vagina is considered āworn outā when she had a lot of sexual partners while it doesnt impact a manās dick.
thereās a reason why men say āi fucked your mom/sisterā as an insult: i stained your property, i dishonored your family.
thereās a reason why women with a lot of sexual partners, or even women who arent virgins, are considered ādirtyā and dishonored, and why gay and bisexual men are seen as less manly.
thereās a reason why women who are and were prostitutes or in porn are seen as less worthy while men who buy sex or do (straight) porn are seen as manly, which is considered good.
thereās a reason why āwhoreā and āslutā are female specific terms.
penetration is seen as degrading.
and sex is often only considered as penetration. and the penis is considered to be superior, and a tool of degradation.
and to be penetrated is seen as a female trait, which in turn justifies womenās degradation and misogyny. this is where a lot of homophobia stems from as well.
this is why the penis is not a neutral body part.
