Skyrim ramblings because Im a loser virgin
One of those nights where you ponder if Valerica would be percieved differently if she put on more of an emotional performance upon being reunited with Serana..... hmmm I do say I think the reason yall call her a bad mother is simply her tone and disposition! Despite the fact that her evil baby daddy sold them both to a daedric lord to be raped in exchange for power. And what makes Valerica such a bad mother? Oh for having to lock her daughter away so same baby daddy didnt kill her for even MORE power. Like damn she couldn't do SHIT right for yall. Valerica please your ex is dead come out of the soul cairn love u and understand u

" xyz men should just hire a sex worker "
maybe women in the sex trade are not a dumping ground for evil men to use them as punching bags. if the man sucks, why should ANY woman have to put up with him?
Well clearly you dont know. Im a very special girl. Im meant for private use, so I'll wait until a man gives me a special ring to allow him to obliterate my dignity. Those women in the sex trade? Theyre public property so its ok for men to use those women instead of me. Duhhhhhh. Its almost like you dont know women are commodities that need designated areas of use... but all of it is very empowering and awesome!
This is sarcastic btw.

would it kill not to memeify a tragedy that ruined lives of countless young women. would it kill not to turn pedophilic rape and child trafficking into a silly goofy joke. woud it kill to have respect for the victims. would it.
My friend and I were talking about this the other day. She used to be on radblr but she left a while back aswell. Anyways, men do not actually care about children. We're painfully aware they do not care about women, but the copious amounts of "protect the kids" larping that the male left do? All a facade. And to me, as a victim of abuse, I'd rather they come up and spit directly in my face. It'd be more direct. Because here's the thing. They make it seem like this is a sexless issue. Not only do they create jokes about it but they make it seem as if it was just "children". Not women, not GIRLS. Because if they were to assess the actual reality of this issue they would have to address misogyny. But they dont. Because, ironically, they endorse the sex culture that leads to issues like this. They endorse sex being seen as a power struggle. Dominance on the male half.
So why do they make jokes about it? Its all to mock the right. All with the cloak of "defending victims". Men have forever seen women as just a resource to fight over. Through race, wealth, political group.... the struggle between two men always results in a woman being used as a weapon against the other side. A resource to take and tease the opponent with. A talking point to discredit their enemy, not a human to care for. All of this is purely another chess piece on their board. Nothing will change, left or right. The issue lies deeper.

The self-centeredness of her wearing a hospital gown. The surrogate, whose face isn't even shown, is a young woman of color. Imagine the nightmare of giving birth while a professional photographer hangs over your shoulder. If these had been staged by anti-surrogacy advocates, it would be considered too on the nose.
What in the Handmaid’s Tale is this shit?!?!
God, this is infuriating. Look at the way the couple isn’t acknowledging the birth mother, they’re just staring at the baby they bought. This is human trafficking.
We don’t separate puppies from their mothers until six weeks or even longer. But it’s okay to separate a human baby from their mother at barely a day old? Less than that, even? They spent nine months in the mother’s womb, hearing her voice and heartbeat, sensing her emotions, responding to her touch. You don’t think that would cause separation trauma? Babies also need skin to skin contact with their birth mothers. It helps strengthen their immune system and stabilize their breathing and heartbeat.
Look at how the mother’s face isn’t even shown in the picture, just a shot of in between her legs. I think that says a lot about how surrogates are viewed- human incubators, nothing else. Not to mention this is a white couple renting a WOC’s womb.🤮
Ban surrogacy now📢
I really think we need to stop using bioessentialist ideas of birth leading to animalistic emotions and bonds to criticize surrogacy. And yall might hate me for saying that. I don't know much about human children, but I do have experience with veterinary science. The analogy with dogs doesnt prove a point. Puppies are not seperated from their mother due to lactation and rearing. Human babies can be fed formula and still have parents to raise them. Humans are alloparental. As are dogs actually. Orphaned puppies will be nursed by other females and adopted into a litter. In fact, wolves (of which we theorize they were domesticated from) exhibit parental behavior in which all members of the pack help rear the puppies and have increased oxytocin levels. Oxytocin is not ONLY produced by the woman enduring childbirth. And it is not an absolute factor in her want of the child. I read a study the other day that actually said that fathers holding babies is better for calming down down as their fathers voice does not stimulate them as much (for feeding) but I would have to look back at this claim. My point being that I dont really think it matters that much for skin to skin to be the birth mother specifically.
I think the true issue of this whole matter comes down to female desire. Female desire has been desecrated. Going through this process because you are too poor to eat isn't desire, that is need. But look at how we word childbirth in society, a society tainted by male entitlement and a lack of female benefit. Even the wording "giving birth" shows how it is a service in the eyes of most. There is no gain, no action from women. The only thing they see childbirth as is a performance. And that is why you see a photographer angling a camera at this womans crotch with another woman carrying a baby still attached to the fucking surrogate as if she "delivered" it herself. Stop relying on womens natural maternal drive to explain the wrongdoing, rely on the fact that this isnt a result of this womans desire. The fact that she did not go through this for personal gain and could not change her mind if she did want the child is the issue.
In actuality, I do believe that the obsession with making childbirth emotional is actually a factor in why this is happening in the first place. If the woman here could reproduce (or knowing the fertility field, if the MALE could reproduce... thats another topic for another day) she would be in the same situation. On her back, husband peering down at her crotch with no a care in the world. Just focused on the display. The fairytale. But since this couple cannot reproduce, they used another axis that they are privileged on (race, wealth) and oppressed a woman to perform FOR them. Yes, there are differences in how these women are treated, but its the same fundamental issue. The wealthy white woman cannot oppress herself and make a show of her turmoil for her master, so she uses some of her resources to ensure a woman who has other issues holding her down can take her place and still make it happen. And white men love this. Either way, they get the novelty of a woman laboring for them. They still get this rush of pride at the thought of their semen "changing the brain chemistry" and body of a woman. And in terms of race, they were able to dominate a person of color. A woman seen as disposable, an even easier means of having a baby because they can throw away the body around it! So they dont complain. I dont think yall consider the disparity in as much detail as you should. As I said, same fundamental misogyny, different outcomes based on your other characteristics.
Again, I dont really expect this whole response to be taken well by y'all. For some reason a lot of you are still dependent on this rhetoric to defend your stance.

Can I say something....
To preface, I myself have been through sexual abuse as a child. But I absolutely HATE the depiction of victims as fawn. The priority of this analogy is the loss of innocence. And that is something I have noticed with this new "trend" in caring about children's sexual abuse. Firstly, I find that many performative left-leaning people make CSA into a sexless issue. They almost seem to emphasize male victims (and all 1% of female perpetrators) so that they may not talk about the sexed reality of this crisis. Furthermore, they do not want to talk about the sexed reality because they, ironically, support the sex culture that fuels this issue. They want to care enough to sound like warriors selfless enough to protect precious babies, but they dont care. Not only that, but when they do so choose to emphasize GIRLS, they always emphasize the innocence that was taken from the girl.
As I've grown into the woman I am, I see changes in how my sexuality and it's cost is percieved. As a girl, I was protected by those who saw me as an adorable baby animal worth protecting. But this "innocence" is also what makes young girls appealing to men. However, as I've aged, I feel Ive become more marketable. As a 21 year old woman, I am fruit ripe for picking. But as I said, innocence is a novelty. Now that I am considered less innocent and pure, I am not a special edition purchase. When I am open for any consumer, the demand decreases.
And that is why I despise the fawn being used to symbolize an abused girl. The innocence is the obsession, not the humanity neglected and trust spoiled. The innocence endorsed on both sides leads to the issue. Girls are cared about and preyed upon depending on the capacity of purity on their entity, the amount of untainted mass that is either protected to admire or dominated to relish in destroying something "beautiful", not the raw human state that lies past the nonsense.
Please do not take offense if you like the analogy, I am just offering my point of view.
terfs will never be happy. you could have perfect wombyn goddess utopia and they’d still be furious about something.
Troll account, but I'll bite. Its called assessing intention and why people make certain connections to create analogies. Im saying that this analogy shows a deeper social truth. Yall act like reflection is a sin because trans ideology relies on adding nonsensical mythology to an issue to make sense of it rather than going in reverse and disassembling the issue to see fundamental corruption. Its easier to add onto an issue than weed out the source you were desensitized to.
BUT WHATEVERRRRRR AT THE END OF THE DAY IMMA FINGER MYSELF TBH

Im watching video of manifestelle about overconsumption and one sentence struck something in me:
The myth that women purchasing multiple versions of one thing is by default overconsumption is rooted in misogynistic belief that women are not allowed to take up space.
And this is so real.
Naaah sis, this is capitalism slop in feminist buzzwords
We are allowed to have things without feeling guilty about it.
And I hate capitalism don't get me wrong, the issue is that women are literally dragged for things like buying themselves small trinkets from time to time (or soap, as you can read in the comments in this post), while moids get away with wasting money on gambling.
The irony of the overconsumption craze is how men have been overconsuming unethical goods for YEARS. But only when women start buying themselves Stanley cups and labubus, NOW its an issue. Now there needs to be 5000 videos on YouTube with some curly mullet Benson Boone clone made in a performative male laboratory talking about this new "crisis". But when men are paying for onlyfans its ok. When men buy anime sex figurines it wasnt a big deal. When men bought those HIDEOUS funko pops it was fine. Thats the issue I have with so many of the people who rant about capitalism and ohhhh how bad it is. They idolize males and their consumption habits, and cannot see how misogyny feeds the issue they pretend to care about. What is the number one goal of men once they get money? To marry a woman and start a family. To gain pride through a domestic conquest. The only reason males want money is to fund their own form of corruption. And I theorize that, once the nuclear family fantasy cannot satisfy men anymore, they seek power in other means.... economic means. Its just ironic at the end of the day. You hate capitalism but support the same sentiment in other forms. Smh my head
Omg first radfem post since my hiatus. Hellooooo ladiesssssss 😏

What's up everyone
Ive been gone a while. There's good reason. Let me do a bit of catching up and maybe explain a bit.
First, I really did miss you guys. I miss this community. There wasnt a day where I didnt consider coming back on here because I developed a new theory or just wanted to let myself loose. Really, this community has been a great outlet and I really appreciated the support. I felt validated by you guys.
However, I got back in school for a fall semester. It went well! Kinda. Despite failing one class, I passed the two other. And I had a bad episode that almost prevented me from doing any of the work at all. So Im proud of myself in a way. I took philosophy finally. I think that may have been my favorite class so far. I also have been observing myself. I have been fighting mental illnesses my whole life. And suddenly I have found psychosis getting rapidly worse. Much of my illness is triggered by misogyny and a lot of my obsessions revolve theorizing on misogyny. It can become unhealthy. Im happy to say that I have become a lot better with arguments and the ability to articulate what I feel coherently and with confidence. I feel I have become a better writer. And my philosophy class helped me a lot. The mental struggle has actively become harder, but I am thinking of seeing my psychiatrist. As I said, much of my illness is triggered by sexual inequality, so anything medical is an issue for me. Ive been working through my past as well. Ive been really improving in how I cope with it. It just makes me angry that no one noticed how mentally unsound I was, especially around the time that I was abused. But thats another topic for another day.
Mood episodes are one thing to deal with, psychosis has been another. Its one thing to recognize that you are in psychosis, but it is another to address it, especially as a woman. Ive been shot down many times when bringing it up. I mean, we've come all the way from being misdiagnosed with major depressive (because women are tearful ofc) to bipolar to now possibly schizoaffective. I finally got my therapist to listen to me, and she looked very concerned when I was allowed to describe what these episodes entail. The need to isolate, feeling content in isolation, seeing things out of the corner of my eye, feeling a presence, sounding completely incoherent and making nonexistent connections. I do believe that, deep down, I'm the type to look into subjects and challenge their validity. But, when I am in that state, I lose myself. And thats why so many of my previous arguments were weak. I'm not the proudest of them hahaha. There is always a bit of truth to these crazed moments, its just the lack of organization and passion that make them obscure.
And as women we are really taught that questioning is a sin. You cannot question or challenge anything that is widely to be accepted. But the truth is that knowledge as we know it comes from humans themselves. Humans are unreliable. Furthermore, knowledge has been kept from women. Knowledge has been tailored by men. Women who dare challenge knowledge and become enlightened are neglected... or worse. I just think we need to be less afraid to oppose strict thinking. But thats what many of you do anyways so Im just rambling.
Anyways! Ive learned to have a calmer demeanor when faced with opposition. I want to search for the truth. I want to get my hands dirty. You may see more of me soon. I wont try to stick on here too much, seeing as how unhealthy this obsession can get. But I hope you all are having a good winter right now.
See ya! Radfem dog picture included
Oh goddess, this is so touching, I'm glad you don't give up, keep fighting and learning, learning something new, good luck to you sister
О богиня, это так трогательно, я рада, что ты не сдаешься, продолжаешь бороться и учится, изучая что-то новое, успехов тебе сестра
This is so sweet. Thank you
