There are other women like you. There are other women who think the way you think, who feel the way you feel, who act the way you act. There always have been and there always will be. Womanhood isn’t whatever shallow archetype the world has tried to convince you that it is. It’s going to be okay.
I wanna frame this and keep it forever

i think the weirdest bit of anti-terf warriors' propaganda i've seen is this constant insistence that radfems are all feminine women who hate gender-nonconformity & despise masc lesbians and masc women in general 😭 i definitely get what purpose that lie Serves & it's serving it well but it's wild that people like. genuinely, sincerely believe that. to the point of finding it AMUSING to stumble upon a masc woman in radfem spaces. hello...
ladies we need to start frantically and obsessively reading books in less than 24 hours again..remember how happy we were
i'm a bit of a fujo and even I can admit that if you think about it deeply for even a single second women's obsession with M/M ships is largely a product of misogyny.
IMO all shipping is a form of self-projection. The desire to project into a M/M relationship is the desire for a relationship without assumed patriarchal hierarchies. I would hesitate to use the term 'male worship' here... Still, fujos certainly idealize m/m relationships in a way they do not/cannot idealize W/W relationships, but because what they idealize is the male experience (male privilege). As others have pointed out, there is a not insignificant number of nonbinary and tboy fujos- that's no coincidence.
It's certainly not that 'people don't find two women together sexy/romantic', as that one commenter suggested. It's that there are aspects of patriarchal socialization that make W/W stories more complex, more fraught with the possibility of hatred and discrimination. i think this also plays into why 'toxic' yuri is so popular (if the tension is coming from inside the relationship, it's more easily resolved).
like you said, there's no 'patriarchal plan'- just a confluence of patriarchal socialization that maintains itself through the absorption of new ideas.
I agree.
I like when delivery people ask you to sign their tiny shitty screen with your finger like alright sure we can do some free drawing I guess. Some random strokes that evoke the essence of a signature. Looking me dead in the eyes while I play fruit ninja on this blank screen. Why not.
You know what could actually help lots of women in the global south? Especially if you're American? Stop consuming drugs. I find it kinda funny how betrayed everyone seems when you can't even give up weed.
If you're American and you consume illegal drugs, you are two steps from consuming porn to me.
im guessing this has to do with not supporting drugs traffickers thus not supporting gangs who then therefore have less money and influence to hurt women and children? or is there also another reason? because i always thought men were the primary ones dying due to gang violence
Gang violence in LatinoAmerica is huge. And I mean HUGE. Every city under the USA border has its own relationship with drug cartels. You really really don't know how is to live in a country where the drug cartels dictate everything. There have been entire cities destroyed by them. Vacated. Some of them serve as mercenaries for transnational companies, to enslave men for manual labor and women for manual and sexual labor. One of the worst femicide crisis in recent history in Mexico was fueled by drug cartels, just search Dead women of Ciudad Juárez. The drug cartels own human trafficking rings across the country. They kidnap and traffick migrant women, local women and children. They are known for closing highways and cut food and supplies from towns where they think they need control over. There have cases of towns where drug cartels close highways and try to kidnap all the women and girls in there. They kill indigenous people and farmers who refuse to cultivate their crops. Mexico is in shambles because of the narco. We couldn't even send data to the investigation on black holes because the drug cartels wanted money to open a highway that went up a hill where a telescope was. With this I am trying to say that pretty much every aspect of civilian life, especially outside big cities, is dictated by drug cartels.
And this is just México. Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and other countries have their own problems with drug cartels. This is not gang violence anymore. Some of us are living in what it resembles a narco state. A state where the drug cartels control almost every aspect of politics.
I did a free walking tour in Medellin, Colombia and the tour guide spent at least an hour talking about how much he hates foreigners who come to colombia to do cocaine and do pablo escobar tours and another hour talking about how fucked up it is that europeans, americans, and australians consume most the illegal drugs but see none of the violence. he went hard before huge group of people, many of them there to probably just party and do drugs. I could've listened to him talk for ages. mad respect.
I can't believe how many people turn a blind eye to the violence.
The majority of weed smoked in the states where it’s most popular is grown in the US, not in the global south. I can see this argument being valid for things like cocaine, but claiming people who smoke weed that’s grown in their legal state are contributing to violence and trafficking in South America isn’t remotely accurate.
I specified illegal drugs you fucking stoner. I said weed because of people who aren't willing to even switch to a legal source. If you source it legally then why tf are you on my post.
According to the DEA, one third of the illegal drugs trafficked from Mexico to the USA is weed so... Who tf is smoking that illegal pot?
Okay even if it’s weed. Let’s talk about it. How do you really know where it comes from? Okay let’s say you buy it from a storefront. Seems legit. But a lot of them are not legally obligated to buy their supply from gov regulated producers. So they are selling product most likely from illegal grow-ops, often with falsified labels. Let’s say the product / supply chain is legit. The store front also acts as a money laundering front. The store owner is also a human trafficker and/or a dealer for illegal substances. This is just his “legal” business.
Like unless you’re buying your weed directly from the gov’s website, you do not and cannot know 1) where your supply is really from 2) if the money spent is being used to fund illegal activity.
It's also legal for Nestlé to sell and guess what? They use child slave labor.
This applies to Europe too. The Netherlands are famous for having legalized marijuana, but a lot of the (completely legal!) marijuana in the Netherlands is supplied by dangerous cartels. And of almost all of the cocaine in Europe comes from South America, so from the same woman killing cartels. Europeans who do cocaine are also funding the enslavement and murder of women in Latin America. To boot a lot of the cocaine in Europe is trafficked through Africa, where drug cartels there also hurt and murder women, so cocaine in Europe often has the blood of both Latin American and African women on it.
I advise people to only smoke weed that they either grew themselves or that they know for a fact beyond any doubt that it was grown locally and ethically and it wasn't produced or imported by cartels.
