#when you're bashing a group of girls/women for wanting male approval: you yourself are doing that for male approval

[queerbauten]

I love how people (particularly men) think they get a free pass to be misogynistic when their target is the "pick-me girl", a phrase which increasingly means nothing

#misogyny #feminism #when you're bashing a group of girls/women for wanting male approval: you yourself are doing that for male approval #because why else are you doing it? for whom are you doing it? #you're not doing it for the benefit of *women*; that's for sure #only the patriarchy benefits from this nonsense #and what's suuuper annoying is when people pit the so-called 'pick-me girl' against 'the girl who is actually one of the guys' #my sisters: if men's acceptance of you is conditional on performing gender a certain way #then men don't actually value you!! #they will discard you the moment you fail to live up to their vision of 'acceptable womanhood'!! #you could be spending your time promoting genuine sisterhood #but instead you are tearing other women down for being victims of the patriarchy!! #you are as much a victim!! you are as much subject to patriarchy!! #and again: when men do it #it's literally just misogyny #there is no feminist backing to what these men are doing #they just. hate. women. #quit wasting your time trying to get their validation #and start building relationships with other women #j'en ai marre
