the more I think about that video of the guy kicking the anti-choice woman to the ground (presumably) the more disturbed and angry I become… I would never want a woman to be harmed by a man in the pursuit of women’s rights generally. that’s so backwards and not at all what feminism should stand for. everyone should be slamming that kind of behaviour lol

when your god or gods kills his creations, that's his right to do so. he made us, so he can destroy us. male creator deities exist to take credit for women's labor as the true creators. a woman made you. a woman can decide she doesn't want to create a new person, and that's her right as a creator. you were never entitled to her labor; you exist because she agreed to make you.

male creation myths strip women of their rightful authority over creation. they deny them autonomy over their bodies. they say that pregnancy is merely incubation, but that's a lie. pregnancy is women's labor. she has the right to refuse to offer her body's resources to create new life.

god did not create you. a woman did. it is not god's will, it is hers.

The other day I was listing off the books on my goodreads list pertaining to feminism at my parents house which went something like this:

Me: I've got Delusions of Gender: How our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference By Cordelia Fine, Female Erasure: What You Need to Know about Gender Politics' War on Women, the Female Sex and Human Rights (By several authors and editors), I’m still waiting on Material Girls: Why Reality Matters for Feminism By Kathleen Stock, I really want to get to TRANS: When Ideology Meets Reality By Helen Joyce, and also All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation by Rebecca Traister.

My Dad: Don't you ever just read a good fiction book?

Me: Yeah I have 24 new ones stacked up in the guest room. I've read 3 so far this year (2022), but I don't have a lot of time for leisurely academic reading while finishing up my MSN . I do read stories and opinions from other radical feminists on an esteemed website where I can contribute my own thoughts each morning though.

(He looked surprised. I didn't mention the website was tumblr....)
