(Sidenote, I fucking HATE how this article frames it, just the title is fucking cringe. Oh no no no the REAL problem with porn is that it backfires on men’s boners, not the abuse of women 🙄)
Very brief mention of prostitutes, but points out how religious conservative purity culture and secular liberal porn culture are two sides of the same coin and both are rooted in patriarchal control of women’s bodies
Just goes to show you how conservative religious institutions aren’t actually anti sex trade and don’t give a fuck about the exploitation of women. Don’t lump them in with us. #FuckPimpsAndPriests 🙃
Interesting information. Like (grand)father like son aye? Maybe men who deal on the sex trade are terrible pieces of shit who don’t respect women and see us as subhuman commodities 🤔
@FeministCurrent on @amnesty being corrupt and hypocritical, pushing for a system of racialized sexual violence and direct colonization of women’s bodies
Racism of the sex trade 🤢
The racism of the sex trade is inseparable from the inherent objectification of it. Turns out that making women into products results in us being ranked and categorized by color, like actual objects.
The Nordic Model PROTECTS prostituted people from violence to begin with because it levels the field and allows them to threaten buyers and pimps with arrest, as they are already criminals.
“sTiGmA kiLLs”
Absolutely batshit. SEXBUYERS KILL. And ~destigmatizing~ “sex work” (NOT “sex workers” themselves) only helps them by normalizing their violence and legitimizing their entitlement. How tf is ~stigma~ against violence worse than violence itself 🤦🏾♀️
Pornwatchers, sexbuyers, pimps, sextraffickers, pornographers, & pornproducers don’t even have to do any work. Idiotic libfems & radlibs defend them, their actions, & the vile industry they uphold more than the men defend (it) themselves 💀
These moids feel SO FUCKING COMFORTABLE broadcasting their violence, racism, misogyny, abuse, & sadism for all to see. But these shills & useful idiots will go 🙈🙉 or drop another braindead false equivalency about how being violently anally penetrated until prolapsing & needing
the asshole stitched back in is jUsT aS eXpLoiTatiVe as having to smile & deal with Karens at fucking McDonalds. Unbe-fucking-lievable. How can anyone say that shit with a straight face?
Neurobullshit & Frens
A list of (some conflicting) sources I’ve collected on sex and gender.
These have been sitting in my Notes for a while, think I’ll do some good by putting them out here
Throwback to when this woman in my IG mentions said that TW “are biologically female” bc they have “female brains”.
No? ❤️ mic.com/articles/12945…
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.
