The more they undress, the more #Egyptian men are celebrated for virility, masculinity, strength. These are students of the Police Academy on display on Thursday for our fascist dictator Sisi, whose regime has been arresting women for dancing and singing, fully clothed, on TikTok
When they undress, #Egyptian male celebrities expect to be praised. They are not slut-shamed or criminalized. A man taking a selfie while shirtless; a man wearing red sho
#Egyptian women are criminalized, slut-shamed & punished in the name of “morality” - whether they are in “revealing” clothes or hijab. Actress Rania Youssef faced jail in 2019, for "inciting debauchery" over a dress bbc.in/2D2JY32

In one of the 3 remaining abortion clinics in Alabama, @ItsJustMeMia has been forcing the anti-abortion shits to listen to my 7 Necessary Sins for Women & Girls audiobook (which I recorded). I am hounoured that I am there with her and everyone at the clinic.
She says that everytime I say "abortion" the antis yell “LIES!” proving they’re actually listening. And they complain to her “PROPAGANDA! THIS IS PROPAGANDA, MIA!
Mia:“If you don’t like what you’re hearing you can always go home.This is MY property & I’ll listen to what I want!”
Thank you @ItsJustMeMia and all who work at @POWERHouseAla. I am honoured that you are blasting my words at those fuckers. And as soon as we can travel, I would love to come to Alabama and stand in love and solidarity with you all. ❤️💜🖤

Dear 8th Grader: I am writing to urge you to stop wanting to be liked, and demand instead to be free.

Polite and well-behaved girls do not terrify the patriarchy. We must terrify patriarchy.

For grown women: So successful has white supremacist patriarchy been at convincing white women that they’re lucky to live in the U.S. & not Saudi Arabia or Iran, that so many white women didn’t pay enough attention to the theocracy being built right here feministgiant.substack.com/p/if-amy-coney…
Tell your mother I said it is time-way beyond time-for white American women to recognize that no amount of acquiescence will protect them from patriarchy. 
I am writing to you because I want you to know the importance of telling a man to shut the fuck up.

Prosecutors now say it was an attempted robbery and not sexual harassment that preceded the dragging murder of this young woman. The original arrest warrant charged the men with sexual harassment. I believe they dropped that when they saw the public outcry. #Egypt
