Women of Star Wars part 2
I hate hearing stories about how someone cheated but the other person forgave them and now they’re even more in love and lived happily ever after, it’s propaganda and I don’t care
telling butch lesbians to “be ugly” when rejecting feminine beauty standards is nice but butchness is something that lesbians find beautiful and desirable so maybe instead of telling butches to accept that they are ugly in a het world tell them that they dont have to live in a world where they’re considered ugly. you dont have to accept being ugly bc you arent ugly to us.
the opposite of ‘we die like men’ is ‘we survive like women’
who else was on here at fifteen and thinking they were on the ace spectrum just bc they didn’t want to sleep with attractive people the moment they saw them/ bc they had a complicated relationship with their bodies and intimacy
no offence but people who aren’t lesbians should absolutely go off when we see lesbophobia and shut it down. lesbians can’t even defend themselves at this point without being painted as irrational, angry and exclusionary
This isnt a hot take but feminism which centers around periods/vaginas/boobs as Things Which Unite All Women is an untrustworthy brand of feminism
slogans like “no pussy no power” “viva la vulva” “not an ovary-action” etc as stand-ins for “i support women” are more damaging than yall think bc centering ur feminism around things which only cis women experience a) alienates trans women who dont experience them, b) is harmful to ppl who DO experience them but arent women, & c) furthers the mentality that gender = genitals/trans women dont really have a place fighting for womens rights. none of that is as progressive as yall think holding up a sign with a vagina on it is, same goes 4 writing that shit on pads. not every woman has a vagina & not everyone with a vagina is a woman, and feminism which marginalizes entire subsets of us for the sake of a catchy slogan isnt good feminism
Reducing women down to body parts, especially genitalia, is misogynistic.
It’s one thing to challenge stigmas around things like the vulva and menstruation, but when your feminism ties those things to women-hood, it is reductive at best, and inherently exclusionary.
I’m a straight ally but only bc the Kissing Kate Barlow subplot in Holes was good
Everyone else is on thin fucking ice
I wanna start watching She-Ra, but at the same time I’m worried it’ll become an absolute dumpster fire of a fandom like V/LD or S/U, and frankly, I don’t need something I like ruined for me in that manner again.
Someone on my dash is already engaged in discourse involving the show oh boy
