Radical feminism isn’t just about the two issues/policies it is commonly reduced to. It is also heavily about critical thinking, analysis, self-reflection, & sisterhood. The radical analysis is class analysis; as opposed to fixating on individual choices & feelings, what is most
necessary is examining the causes & effects of said “choices” & what implications & impacts they have on all women. No choice is made in a bubble away from affecting or being affected by others. We are all very much part of a society. What we all need to do to work towards
liberation is reflect on what we are doing, whether this is really what we want to be doing, what impact it’s having on other women, whether it’s negative or positive or neutral, what could be influencing us, if it’s contributing to oppression, etc. Nothing is exempt.

Real #BodyPositivity is ditching harmful, patriarchal rituals of femininity that disempower women as individuals & a class & waste our time, energy, money, & health, also getting us to support the status quo by giving money to patriarchal corporations that profit off of sexism.
Imagine how much time and money women waste applying makeup, shaving, dieting, plastic surgery, veiling, etc al, that our brothers don’t even consider! It’s like women are always socially/culturally coerced somehow, someway, into torturing ourselves.
- If men don’t do it, why should we? What positivity do any of these things bring us as women? Why should we indulge double standards?
- If we want an end to oppression, why should we support oppressive systems and standards with our dollars and participation?

I cannot fucking deal with liberals and fake-ass “Leftists” who defend the sex trade with these lame ass excuses. Libs be like “not all porn!” the same way antifems and MRAs be like “not all men!” in response to male violence.
No shit not every single porno is the exact same scenes and themes of women being battered, raped, and degraded. There is so much porn on the Internet, anything can be found.
Feminists are saying that the porn industry is an inherently misogynistic system because it is built on, founded on, and profits off of hated & objectification of women. Not every single porno needs to reflect that in order for that fact to be true.
