Today, I'd like to send a shoutout to all child sexual abuse survivors enduring ppl posting "if a 'person' has a penis out, teach your kids to stop staring" and the videos with 'antifa' beating up women who were asserting their boundaries around male genitalia. I know it's hard.
These people are either abuser/groomers or enablers. Because you can't be that naive, can't you? They might be survivors themselves who were groomed and do not know better, of course. Either way, they have to know what their attitude has done to us, survivors. They are making
The world a more unsafe place to females of all ages. The images we saw and the threats we heard recently triggered us to the point of being unwell physically. Where is your kindness to sexual abuse survivors, especially us who were abused as children? You are abusing us again.
We were abused.
Then, we were not believed.
Many of us were blamed.
Many saw the male perpetrators get away with it.
Now, all this "women have to see penises 24/7"
And the antifa beating women.

Understand this: you are reabusing us. I hope you are held accountable for this.

The time for debate has arrived. Thanks so much, @MForstater. So, get ready for battle: the female/male anatomy exist. Humans can't change their birth sex. Females (girls and women) are oppressed because men exploit their reproductive labour. Focus on females issues. We matter.
You can tell sex denialists now that they are wrong. So, speak up! Stand your ground and speak the truth. We got this. Protect youth from harmful ideas like "being born in the wrong body." Nobody is born in the wrong body. Gender identity has no bearing on material reality.
We need to end female oppression. We have a lot of work to do. No more male ruling over women's bodies. We object to dehumanizing language. Women are not a bunch of parts that can be assembled in a male's body. We are women when adults, girls when children. We are not Lego! x

You're funny. Yes I agree, women do have vaginas and vulvas and uterus. But your argument will always be that I don't have an argument bc I brought my personal experience. If I bring female genital mutilation you'll say that I'm using fgm survivors for an agenda.
If I bring female struggle from my country, Brazil, you will say that it's cultural of poor countries and men in Europe are "nicer." If I say that females are oppressed the word over you will call me a liar bc patriarchy does not exist anymore bc women can vote.
If I object to women to be called vulva owners with front holes you'll say that nobody is saying that. I brought my personal experience and you'll say next that it wasn't female oppression/sex discrimination but ill informed or prejudiced drs, without any analysis of the pattern

About Jeffrey What'sTheirName. I'm Brazilian. In Brazil, I've heard hundreds of time men mocking women simply for not going alone to the toilet. They would literally laugh at us, something like: "Ha, ha, look at them! They are so cowards that they can't go alone to the toilet."
These men would shame us for not going alone to the toilet. They would insist with us that we tried going alone to the toilet. If I didn't know any better, I might have tried. They would even accuse us of being too fragile. The weak sex. The scaredy cats. "Look how brave we are!"
They would say: "If you want equality, you have to do things the way men do, to prove you are worthy by being brave. Because with equal rights comes 'equal responsibilities'." Or: "Is that why women don't have compulsory military service?" And laugh more. They humiliate women.

A few notes on The Creation of Patriarchy, by Gerda Lerner.

Bipedalism and upright posture led to smaller hips, causing humans to be born "premature", in order to facilitate birth, dexterity to hold babies and brain development of infants, who now have to learn culturally...
... - not by an innate instinct - how to survive. Meanwhile, human mothers, having a harder labour than other primates and an infant who is helpless and has to be carried around, wil move from foraging to gathering food for later consumption.
Instead of giving birth and being able to go forage for food moments later with an infant who can hold on to mother, and to do that whenever the mother is hungry, several times in a day, the human mother has to make the best of her next foraging, gathering more than one meal...

It's my birthday and I cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry if I want to, you would cry too if it happen to you hahaha couldn't resist this song today.
By the way, as a part-time comedienne, I'm finding it more like hilarious than sad that my husband has no idea it's my birthday today.

Call me Machiavellic but I'm totally saving this as a gotcha for later.
First birthday present: 12yo dislocated an elbow after a fall at school. Husband took him to hospital. Arm in plaster. Lucky me who doesn't believe in horoscope and that towards our birthday we get a harder time x
