Well I'll take it as personal for once. I managed to bear children but with help bc of infertility. This person is saying I'm not woman enough and that's no different from what patriarchy already does to women for thousands of years now. There. I said it
Understand the harm you're doing with this narrative. As a prepubescent gilr, I was not girl enough bc I didn't grow large breasts. I'm flat chested. As a teen girl, I wasn't female enough bc I don't have curves. As a young woman I wasn't woman enough bc "I wasn't going to bear
Children bc I don't have hips wide enough". As a teen I was constantly mistaken for a boy and when a man tried to beat me up for not looking "female enough" I had to always try to add something "feminine" to escape being beaten for that. Ppl around me said I wasn't female enough

So... I've just found out that male sexual violence against women is totally within the law. How I found that out? Because lots of men are right now applauding all the young women who go to protests saying "I suck dicks for socialism", or " fuck me, not the environment ", or 1/
"Don't choke on the streets, choke in the sheets". Men have taught women that their objectification is their only worth, and that women must accept physical violence upon themselves if they want men to stop being violent towards anything/everybody else. What?!? Since this is on2/
