I have come across dozens of Reddit posts created by women who hate their bodies.
This thought has never crossed my mind, despite being bullied by men in my life. Why hate my body just because men see women as sexual objects or weak? The world was designed for men only, so why hate your body and yourself?
There's a book called Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men. I haven't read it, but there's also a short YouTube video with the author, and of course the comment section has men whining. 🤡
This comment on one of the women hating their bodies post is worth reading.
Women heavily idolize men and find male characters in various media more interesting and "relatable." The same can't be said about men when it comes to women.
The majority of men in real life aren't as brave, interesting, or thought-provoking. Years ago, when I tried to make friends with males, the interactions were garbage and boring. No effort was made on their part.
The idolization gets to their heads so bad that they decide that taking testosterone to become a "trans-man" is going to erase all their patriarchal problems. No amount of treatment is going to change you into a man.
What's silly to me is how the majority of them go back to dating a man so they can experience what it feels like to be a "gay man."
It gets hard sometimes to live in a world where most women are male-identified women.
Here's an article about The Male-Identified Woman.
Why do we always have to include men in our groups? Is a real woman not enough that other women feel the need to include men in everything? When you include men, then you shouldn't bother to call a group female, ever.
Female Dating Strategy is not heteronormative
Why do I need to provide a safe space for "non-binary" women who call me a TERF and men who change their identities every week?
"Non-binary" women are the most pickme women out there and have a male-identified woman mindset.
Where are all these men in dresses, gay men, and bisexual men who are creating safe spaces for women? 🤔
There aren't any.
They certainly aren't vocal about any women's issues like the women who defend them are.
Women who refer to themselves as "non-binary" are another form of not like other girls, also known as pickmes. These women have internalized misogyny that they haven't resolved and probably won't ever bother to, so they cover it up with foolish labels.
Trans can add, cut, and tuck, but there will always be differences in anatomy and structure. A man's skin is thicker than a woman's. I guess they'll have to remove their skin as well.
Places erasing the word woman continue.
It's a handmaiden's fetish coming to life just to make men feel inclusive.
Gynecologist/midwife office won’t say the word “WOMAN”.
It would seem so. My new biggest pet peeve is the whole “transwomen are women” bullshit, and how the words “woman” and “mother” are somehow now offensive, AND the fact that so many women are in agreement with it.
To put this into perspective, you don’t see the opposite where the idea that “transmen are men” happening. Men would revolt if they saw their identities being erased.
Handmaidens and pickmes are like the elephant in Elephant Rope story. They're convinced that worshipping and spreading the gospel of the god of peen is the best way to survive. Men are our worst enemies but without handmaidens and pickmes, it'd be much easier to fight back.
I love the comment you included. I had similar experiences. I hated being a girl because the society expect me to wear and do inconvenient things that males don't, that pictures of scantily clad women were everywhere (and I'd hate to be seen as sex object when I grow up) and that so many things were hard for me to do because I don't have shovel for hands or male strength. Then I realized that it's not me, it's the whole world that was build for the convenience and desire of men and men only.
Reading books about amazing women in history helped very much in reframing my view about women. Florence Nightingale and Marie Curie were my idols as a kid lol. It'd d be awesome if we get women history as a school subject. Girls would be able to learn that women can become anything and everything while also being a woman.
ETA: If you haven't read it, Right Wing Women by Andrea Dworkin might be interesting to you.
