suzy-x: dirtywhrrrl: …which are pro-life, Christian based organizations masquerading as medical facilities and use their money and time to push a pro-life, anti-abortion agenda, regardless of the health or desires of the pregnant person. My head executive director just got this news,…

The One Who Hates Everything: White women are... →
blackenedbutterfly: Won’t anyone think of the whites???!??!?! It’s not ironic. It’s not cute. It is a threat. How many people are murdered because they are cis? How many people are denied employment, housing, health services, turned away from shelters, refused aid, and are subjected to constant ridicule… Stop race baiting and making shit up. It doesn’t make your fucked up...

shadows, sighs, and silver lights...: Radfem... →
Radfem political lesbians: “Encourage lesbianism.” “I’m a lesbian for political reasons.”  “I gave up heterosexuality.”  I know it’s not a new thing, yet a lot of this bullshit is popping up lately, here on Tumblr and elsewhere on the Internet. What a fun way to deny having heterosexual privilege, ehh? While making life harder for lesbians (and I mean all lesbians, including the ones you...

Remember the Ladies: Victoria Woodhull (1838-1927) →
thegreat48: When Victoria Woodhull announced that she was running for President in the election of 1872, quite a few minds were blown. Not only was she the first woman to do so, but her policies were also so ahead of her time that some might consider them pretty radical even for today. There were the…

Why Radical Feminism?  →
Because men’s orgasms are not more important than: infants. animals. women. sanity. human rights. inanimate objects which men fetishize. Because women are not: broodmares. domestic servants. blow-up dolls. happy hookers. objects. sluts*. dirty. the root of all evil. punching bags. perfect murder victims. saints. whores.  Because prostitution is not: empowering. a choice. a quick and easy...

girlsandgifs: queernonymoose: As I said to my biffle Nij, who has also been bashing back at the rad cis scum that have been attacking trans* folks, I wanted to thank specifically many of the cis Black women and other cis Women of Color who have also came to the defense. You have pretty much outdid many of the white cis… Of course! The only reason women of color are critical of trans is...

A lesson in Intersectionality *TM*
Women of Color = Women Women with Disabilities = Women Colonized Women = Women Immigrant Women = Women Lesbian Women = Women Third World Women = Women Prostituted Women = Women Trans Women =/= Women. This does not mean Trans women do not face oppression, or violence or any host of bad things.  It does however mean it is incorrect for trans activists to co-opt the language women have used to...
