Can they please go one day without making everything about themselves
a female director creating a sledgehammer-blunt story about the absurd horror of the beauty standards of hollywood and the visceral self-loathing and mental health issues it inspires in women? no. its secretly about transitioning. omfg how obnoxious can u get
Feminism is just fun & games to these losers. They don't give a damn about women's rights, they just want to belittle JK Rowling. How can you see the horrors these women faced and how amazing it is they were able to be helped, and just brush it off with a stupid joke?
Me: passionately argues with ignorant, misogyinist people who throw tantrums about feminism 'just hating men and inventing problems', I use the real ideas of feminism, statistics and real stories from real women, to prove that what they say is full bullshit
Also me 10 minutes later: sees a radfem acount talking about how the Y chromosome contains sociopathic behaviour making every men (including trans women) evil from birth, and every woman who dared to get married or give birth betrayed women, with hundreds in the comments praising 4B

When you make a joke about how if men could get pregnant they’d sell abortion pills in vending machines only to get hit with “trans men exist”
Yes, I am aware that women who change their pronouns are still capable of getting pregnant. It comes with the female reproductive system. This is not revolutionary information, nor is it an example of males getting pregnant
Don’t walk yourself into getting your feelings hurt if you can’t handle that being pointed out
“false allegations make it harder for real victims to come forward” aka “if a few women lie then that damages the credibility of every single woman and girl on the planet but millions and millions of men all over the world can actually rape, abuse and even kill women and girls and that shouldn’t damage the credibility or reputation of any man”
They absolutely should be, those videos should be removed and YouTube and Tiktok should be held liable for the damage that they do when they show people at their most vulnerable and turn them into clowns for entertainment. I’d be willing to support a movement built around stopping the idea that existing in public means agreeing to having your image posted for billions to see and mock and for YouTube to make money from.
Call me none of the above. If someone is drugged they are considered incapable of consent, pornhub is not making sure their actors are sober.
My criticisms of the porn and sex industry come from a place of worker’s rights and safety and from the importance of consent as a freely given act so people who just decide to video tape themselves having sex, have proper safety precautions for dealing with seminal and vaginal fluids, all of whom have the right at any point to destroy access to those videos, all of whom are in a mindset to consent, none of them necessarily needing the money to survive (because fuck me or starve, fuck me or die on the streets, fuck me or get deported aren’t actual choices. The same applies to ‘work for me or starve, die on the streets, get deported.’), who get to actively decide who’s watching to continue their consent. Those people are fine, power to them, but I don’t think they represent a majority of the industry and I to get to the point where they are the industry needs to be looked at critically.
the fact that criticizing the sex industry is seen as more oppressive than the sex industry itself should really make people think
“I have a tracker in me,” read the cryptic note, found in triage by a greenhorn doctor — scribbled by a woman in the emergency room.
She claimed to have been implanted with a GPS tracking device of some kind — an assertion not unheard of, but never the less unusual.
Dr. A, anonymous for safety concerns, rolled his eyes — ordinarily, such a note would be a sure indicator of mental illness, for which a psychiatrist would need to be summoned.
But this woman appeared lucid. Sane. Not at all paranoid or delusional.
And she had an incision.
So an x-ray was performed, and medical personnel gathered to view the results. But they stood breathless in disbelief — indeed, while they didn’t find a GPS tracker,
“Embedded in the right side of her flank is a small metallic object only a little bit larger than a grain of rice,” Dr. A recounted for Marketplace’s Dan Gorenstein. “But it’s there. It’s unequivocally there. She has a tracker in her. And no one was speaking for like five seconds — and in a busy ER that’s saying something.”
“It was a small glass capsule with a little almost like a circuit board inside of it,” the 28-year-old doctor.
Shock turned fast to concern when the doctors grasped what the presence of the object signaled about the 20-something woman’s life — and why she’d handed over the bizarre note.
“It’s an RFID chip. It’s used to tag cats and dogs, And someone had tagged her like an animal, like she was somebody’s pet that they owned.”
In fact, the unnamed woman had been treated as a pet — a possession — by her boyfriend, who sold her for sex and pocketed the money she brought back.
She was one of an innumerable amount of victims of human trafficking — a colossal problem in every corner of the globe, including the United States — where Dr. A has residency at a hospital in a ‘major American city,’ Marketplace discreetly noted.
That modern day slavery is alive and unfortunately booming, even in the U.S., might jar the somnambulant masses — after all, schools rightly cover the nation’s history of antebellum slavery quite thoroughly. But human trafficking and exploitation constitutes a modern iteration of baneful practice.
“Very plainly,” Katherine Chon, director of the newly created Office on Trafficking in Persons at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, told Gorenstein, “human trafficking is when one person takes advantage of another person for some profit.”
Sex isn’t the only reason people buy other people — human trafficking sadly staffs a number of industries with forced laborers, from the menial and repetitive tasks of manufacturing, to domestic service.
Under threat of violent punishment — or worse — victims often endure horrific trauma and find it difficult, if not impossible, to alert others to their circumstances for assistance.
i keep seeing like 'wehhh radblr no talk about female abusers' and im sorry but idgi. we just have bigger problems. like men. but that doesnt mean we think women never suck
I have preestablished biases and beliefs about the world, I acknowledge that and am willing to adjust with new information shared.
