It’s necessary to name transmisogyny as a distinct form of prejudice and oppression, as it has unique characteristics that generalizations of either of its component intersecting categories do not adequately explain when they’re considered in isolation, but with that in mind, it feels important to emphasize: hatred of trans women is also just plain misogyny.

I thought this was a good critique until:

I mean, you had a good point, but you kinda lost me there.

the idea that anyone who approaches sex in an unconventional way (asexuals, kinky people) is LGBT is a direct product of the perception of gay sex as deviant and strange

… so you’re saying asexuality is deviant and strange,, im seeing aphobia here, in 2018,

whats it like to not know how to read

what’s it like to defend someone who’s saying asexuality is only considered valid because of homophobia

it literally. doesnt say that. it says people consider asexuality or kink to be part of the lgbt community because people have come to think of being gay as a subversion of the sexual norm, basing the entirety of their perception of lgbt people on sex, when thats not entirely what the lgbt community is about. no one is saying asexuality isnt valid because its not alone a part of the lgbt community. you dumb fuck. learn to read you complete dipshit

It’s fucking. aphobic. to group together asexuality with people who have sexual fetishes. do you not fucking understand that. no asexuals are not part of “lgbt” but they ARE apart of “lqbtq+” when people with fetishes are NOT. So, to say asexuality is in the same fucking category as people with kinks fucking invalidates asexuality. Dumb bitch. Op also doesn’t think pansexuality is different from bisexuality which is fucking wrong. So please fucking hitch your horse to their wagon, I’d love to argue ignorant bitch!

theyre saying that they are both groups that people consider lgbt for similar reasons. they did not say that asexuals and kink ppl are in the same category. they just said that theyre both wrongly considered lgbt. i also hate kink freaks and dont think they belong anywhere near the ace or lgbt community. you really didnt understand the intention of original post at all and just knee jerk reacted to the mention of asexuality

i just realized im arguing on the internet and i have a bank account and friends so i have to go be an adult . goodnight folks

just once I want to see a good post critiquing makeup culture that doesn’t turn out to be made by some janky radfem blog

oh hey!! I’m not a janky radfem I can do it myself!

makeup culture is wack and normalizes a ludicrously high bar as the bare minimum women can do. I saw a “lazy"makeup tutorial the other day that listed 22 separate goddamn products. you’re supposed to buy and know how to use 22 different things on your face just for the privilege of being considered lazy and that’s uuuuuuh what’s the word? bullshit.

Really, five products could work, even 3. Just frame the face, eyes, lips, and you’re done.

0 products also works great

because I’m gonna be real here, the idea that 22 products is a minimum sucks but it’s really upsetting that any amount of makeup is the bare minimum at all

I would really just suggest some powder foundation, concealer, mascara and lipgloss/lipstick, or tbh just mascara works too, but that’s up to you

I’m sorry if I didn’t express this clearly enough in the original post but I’m not really looking for more concise makeup regiments. my intention was to point out how it’s Bad that makeup is considered a bare minimum at all, regardless of individual feelings on the matter

no face should be “required” to have “a minimum” of makeup. makeup has no health benefits and does nothing but fill the pockets of companies that prey on women and our insecurities.

makeup should not be seen as hygiene because it isnt. get that shit out of your head.

this post: makeup culture is ridiculous and 22 products should not be considered a minimum requirement for someones face. no one should have to do that

the notes: so like……. what youre saying is……. we need to make the minimum about 5 or 6 instead… i gotcha

Really the only makeup you need is eyeliner but that’s just my personal opinion

okay

where did we lose you

why are people like this

Anti trans hysteria hurts cis women too, especially gay/gnc cis women

Protip: most people who are “bathroom vigilantes” are conservative straight folks who probably can’t tell a butch lesbian from a trans woman (or a trans man, for that matter). I do want radfems, especially the butch/GNC ones, to ask themselves if they’d be comfortable being forced into the men’s room by a straight soccer mom if they got to force trans women out of the women’s restroom.

The comments on the article are basically a bunch of people going “well she dressed like a man so it was her fault” like I thought we moved on from the ‘girls can’t wear pants’ mentality??

wow look it’s exactly what we knew was going to happen
