Friendly reminder that VP Harris officiated the marriage of a gay couple in 2004, before a generation of voters was even born
She then opposed Proposition 8
This is someone who has consistently fought for the legal rights of the lgbt population, and she's running against a party that actively plans to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges
these 'not all men' clowns are beyond embarrassing, women are talking about their constant agony and these clowns expect them to say 'all men are trash except my neighbour raju who is unproblematic and helped me to put my scooty's stand one day', sharam karle thoda.
it's crazy to see men act offended, going to the extent of bringing up things like abuse against men(when they laughed it off when modi sarkaar made sexual harassment against men legal), sending rape threats, groping women in a rally arranged by the women for the woman who died mercilessly tortured at the hand of a man. men in fact. what is this world?
and the few women i can visibly see still bootlicking these men, i hope the manworshipping was worth all the threat you cause to your own kind.
not all men are rapists but all of them benefit from a patriarchal society.
Oh BTW, it's important that as many people vote for Harris as possible, because we don't want a scenario where the votes are close enough that it might be taken to court (much less the conservative-leaning Supreme Court) and ruled in Trump's favor. And yes, this also applies if you live in a blue state; we don't want to risk any doubt anywhere who the winner is.
I haven't seen this version anywhere so I made one!
Like yes they hyperenforce gender roles and stereotypes on all cis women, but it is primarily women of color that they target and accuse of being predatory and "not real women" when they're targeting cis women.
The metrics of "real woman vs trans woman" that terfs love to share are almost all just white eurocentric beauty standards. Small nose, thin fine hair, little/no body hair, petite but somehow curvy, hell I've even seen a post saying skin lightness is a determiner.
Terf/radfem circles are racist at their core. You cannot separate radical feminism from it's violently white supremacist roots. You can't have "anti-racist radical feminism", that's a fucking oxymoron. There is a very clean path from terfs to tradfems/tradwifes, to just straight up conservative republican women.
Yes yes always, terfs are super misogynistic. They hurt all women by forcing them back into the little impossible painful boxes that they claim they're fighting. But one of their biggest targets other than trans women is black women. Not to mention ignoring, discrediting, or just straight up trying to erase all the hard work that black trans women did for queer rights.
Radical feminism is very much transphobic, homophobic, and misogynistic. I'm not saying stop addressing it as such. Don't ever do addressing it as such!
But radical feminism is white supremacy in a coat of pink paint. Please never forget that when talking about how it hurts us all.
