Young girls need to be actively taught to not help males regardless of their circumstances or age. Whether it's your boyfriend of 5 years who recently got into a debt or if it's any stranger in a dark alleyway crying for help. Neither of them are gonna end well FOR YOU. You're not gonna get appreciated, you're not get acknowledged for long. Infact, you're gonna be the one who'll be taken advantage of. Other men surrounding these helpless men have far more power than you ever will(most). These men are not approaching you because you're "the one" they could trust. And let me tell you something, the men you'll help build, will resent you for helping them or being there to witness when they were at their worst. They do not want to be reminded of the times when they were a loser or that a woman(someone who's considered below them) helping them.

“Let people have different opinions” no, this isn’t Marvel vs DC or Barbie vs Oppenheimer or something. This is human rights. You either want everybody to have them or you don’t. And I won’t just live with the fact that you don’t want everyone to have BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS.

had a very sudden idea yesterday, that was just “reduce intensity, reduce frequency, reduce duration”. this kind of thing is close to the style i used to have when i first found gender critical radical feminism as a teenager. i was very focused on trying to convince women to reduce harmful practices like wearing heels, even if they weren’t going to stop entirely.
i’m still against heels, but of course there are bigger things to worry about, and the type of towering high-heels i saw everywhere have gone mostly out of style.

The Witcher books always confuse me
And not for the reason you might think.
Tumblr media
I can always be on the "I knew this, before it was cool" train for The Witcher. Based on the fact that I just read every fantasy book that our local libraries had. And one of the book series, that was in the library, was The Witcher, as they got translated into German in the early 2000s.
It meant a lot to me at the time because of Ciri. Ciri was the first ever non-anime character, I encountered in media, who was LGBTQ*. Because, you know, representation matters.
But, at the time, there was still so much about the books that I did not get.
Again, I read them from the library, not owning them. And also knew them under the German title "Der Hexer". So, when I was a young adult and my then boyfriend started hyping this new fantasy game, I originally did not even realize from the title that it was a game based on those books I read as a teenager. Imagine my surprise, when I played that first game back then and realized: "Oh, I know those characters!"
I read the books again in 2012 and was still fairly impressed with them. But over the years - reading the books again and again - I got confused about these books. How where these books written in the early 1990s by a white man?!
Like, these books - again - have not only openly LGBTQ* characters, with one of the main characters being openly bisexual, but they also just tackle a plenthora of feminist and anti-colonialist issues within the text. And I am just sitting there: How did this got written in the 1990s, before the age of the internet? How did it get published at the time? What kinda man is Andrzej Sapkowski, that he was actually interested in writing this?
You know... I do not hate the games. They are very fun games. While I only played that first game twice, I did put hours upon hours in Witcher 2 and 3. But also... I absolutely get Sapkowski's frustration with those games. Because the games literally just do not get the books. The point with Geralt as a protagonist is, that for the most part he is just some dude. He is not some superhero type. Heck, he acquires a disability midway through the books and struggles with a ton of stuff after that. But the games ignore this as much as they ignore Triss' scars (and her self-consciousness about them). Just as they ignore a good chunk of the colonization angle of the books.
And... Really... The books are probably my favorite high fantasy book series. And quite frankly, given that a ton of folks got into the fandom through the games, the fandom is obviously full of folks, who have not really gotten access to this full picture and are very ignorant about the themes of the book series. And while I am very on the "hey, adaptions can do their own thing" train... At times I just look at the games with their sexy times side quest and think to myself: "Hmm, they kinda didn't get it, did they?"
To me it is really ironic, though. That this Polish book series from the fucking 90s manages to align with my progressive values a lot more than most books being released these days.

250. Remember Ashli Babbitt (An AntiWar Poem)
Sexist and Racist Liberals
Celebrate suicide,
And lionize male soldiers,
Protesters,
While knowing nothing
about their backgrounds.
Just as long as their protest,
Falls within convenient partisan lines;
Protesting the president and administration,
That they, themselves, voted for.
Mindless Fools
Who are too stupid, and dumb, and blind;
And racist, and sexist,
And prejudiced and brainwashed;
To see that smart protesters
Good, brave, and actually
Intelligent people;
Protest war and terror,
And stolen elections,
And evil regimes,
And needless and senseless wars
Before they happen;
while followers,
Who can’t think for themselves,
Are reactionary protesters;
Who only follow what’s approved of
And popular,
Pretending to stand up for something;
After so much time is lost,
And blood is shed.
Is that considered heroism?
A dozen
“Johnny come latelys” who burn
Their uniforms…
Have finally joined Ashli Babbitt,
The brave Air Force veteran in her
protest.
I guess it was about time;
Trump never started any new wars
in his tenure
(Babbitt voted for Obama,
because he promised to close Gitmo)
And the sheep will vote for Biden,
while they (simultaneously) protest him;
And a burning bush that says nothing new,
Is welcomed later
to the noble history of
Ashli Babbitt;
And Vietnam soldiers, and protesters, and self-immolators;
Who gave their lives for the country
By saying, “No”
Not just, “No more.”
I guess later,
Months and years,
And tens of thousands of dead bodies, later;
(Literally millions in Iraq and Afghanistan)
Is better
(So much slightly better than…)
Rather better, than never at all.
— A.M. McGee
[Notes & Commentary: I’m not a fan of either major political party, or their presidents/candidates… Often saying, “the only real difference between voting Democrat or Republican, is whether you want an old war with Russia, in Ukraine, or a new war with China, in MyanMar.” (A cause they, they meaning the military industrial complex, already workshopped trying to get liberal democrats to support.) However, I’ve definitely noticed the sexist double standard in which Ashli Babbitt, who died for her country protesting a stolen election, is defamed and criticized; while the suicidal protest and self-immolation of Aaron Bushnell is celebrated and lionized as an act of outstanding heroism. This makes zero sense to me, and to anyone who has both the courage and common sense to think for themselves. It goes without saying, that Aaron Bushnell has much more in common with Ashli Babbitt, than any of the people celebrating his “sacrifice” to their “cause.” — Both were Air Force veterans, both came from conservative Christian backgrounds, both died protesting the Biden Administration, etc. — And while self-immolation has a long history in AntiWar Protest, I think it’s smarter not to intentionally hurt yourself for people who don’t care how many hundreds or thousands of people they kill, every hour on the hour, with guns and bombs and chemical accelerants. This poem, in a way, is also about my grandmother and grandfather who became AntiWar Activists after serving in the Air Fore. I called the people who criticized Ashli Babbitt both racist and sexist, because of both the obvious sexism of this case (aka the implication that a woman can’t be a hero; or the even more sexist implication that her final act of heroism, as a patriot and as a soldier serving her country, was a sign of female hysteria) but also because of the more subtlety racist things that have been said about her after her murder, such as the suggestion that she “should have complied” while being shot, unarmed, by a Black cop.]

Your "feminist ally" bfs are not based rare good men who treat women right and know how pathetic 99% of other men are, they are like exotic bird collectors who expect you to change overtime and become submissive as you settle down and birth their kids. Most men have that fantasy of changing women after making them believe that they're diFFerEnt and sadly most of them are successful in convincing you that.

Had a guy tell me that boycotting isn't gonna help at all, I'm illiterate and it's baffling that I've passed one of the most difficult exams ever, my boycott hasn't stopped the genocide, IDF is still getting funds, why didn't I think of the poor man who opened a franchise of fucking Baskin Robins before I decided to boycott, reports showing how badly giants like Starbucks and McDonalds are suffering mean nothing and that he can write a report too, if i had checked the degrees of the people before believing their reports, I should break my phone and stop using my car, and when I told him that his laugh reacts to all my messages aren't helping, he told me just like your boycott, my laugh reacts have no impact.
ANNNNND when I stopped replying to his messages, the mf had the nerve to send me a message saying that he wants to offer me constructive criticism that I'm very rigid in my opinions and I should learn to be flexible when he didn't, for a second, move from his rigid pov.
And then people ask why we need feminism and why it's hard being a woman.

Not stereotyping people includes men too
In a world where stereotyping people because of their colour/race/religion/gender is rightly found upon, the "all men" bullshit needs to end.
It is plain stereotyping, passing judgment on a whole section of society because of the category they were born in. If you would not judge someone by their sexuality, by their nationality, if you would not judge a woman just because she's a woman, you should not be against men just for being male.
And notice how when women comment that's it's not all men, and talk about their positive experiences with men, the radfems shoot them down with vengeance. Why? Because their challenging the spew that all "men are monsters" and pointing out that the world is not so black and white. Like every social category in the world, some people will be good and just and kind and some people will be cruel and hateful. But it has nothing to do with their social categories and everything to do with the individual and the choices in life they make.
Now, from my personal experience, I have experienced some bad ones. I've had the creepy guy sneaking into the girls shower at high school, the perves in the bar, the guy who broke all professional protocol to get my phone number and made me feel unsafe. There's a list. But I also know my step-father, who I trust with my life, the men in my extended family, my male friends, classmates, coworkers. I remember being 18 and traveling alone with my male supervisor to work on isolated sites in the hills and later going into the scrubland with four male colleagues, and they behaved with complete respect and professionalism, they treated me with complete equality, as a fellow colleague.
So no, I will never let the "all men" argument slide, because lumping the good people in the world in the same pot with the bad ones is always harmful. It fosters hate and division. We are supposed to be becoming an enlightened, rational, equal society.
