radfems: features that make up "femininity" such as make-up, high heels, shaving, are constructs of patriarchal societies to control women
very "woke" progressive people on the internet: aw stop ruining the fun! just bc you don't like it doesn't mean it's bad!!! respect people's individual choices!!!
What cultural relativism is good for: understanding in some countries bugs are a delicacy and that isn’t ‘gross’, red means luck in some places and war in others, death is a great tragedy in some places and a celebration of life in others, etc.
What cultural relativism is not good for: justifying child brides, justifying domestic abuse and sexual slavery, justifying the generalized rape and harm and misogynistic practices against women and girls, etc.

Stephanie I will kill you
the fact that even just saying you like jkr gets you forever labeled a bigot but all the ppl who openly supported depp get to quietly withdraw back to normalcy. no one sees an issue with that? especially considering one beat a woman & the other has donated millions to women. with the utmost sincerity, if you genuinely think jkr is some sort of dangerous transphobe I think you’ve got to be one of the dumbest fucking people on the planet. you lack the most basic critical thinking skills and follow along with whatever you’re told like a naive child. I mean it’s been years now and it genuinely baffles me. not once has she said anything bigoted. no one can even back their arguments of this claim. it’s just been decided and so the crowd follows.
Ppl will be like “end the stigma around mental illness uwu” but still judge you if you’re unemployed or single or not completely self-sufficient or healthy or perfectly groomed or still live with parents and don’t see the hypocrisy in that whatsoever
"Women don't own womanhood" oh then who tf does? The 30-something year old man who decided he wanted to be a woman and knows nothing about what it's like to grow up silenced, marginalized, discriminated, harassed, treated like a sexual object, only validated based on unrealistic and even deadly beauty standards? Who must now be applauded for saying "I feel female!" Who must now, despite looking and sounding and behaving like a man, even before properly transitioning, be allowed into women-exclusive spaces which were only created to protect women from predators?
Right. Of course. (sarcasm, for those of you who can't understand the connotation)
All your progressive movements are crap; you guys have no idea what you're talking about, what you're saying, what messages you're actually conveying.
Woke culture is a dangerous, disgusting thing. Keep it out of feminism, we're actually fighting for our lives here.
