About a year ago my best friend was talking about selling her eggs to help pay for bills and stuff. I remember seeing an ad about it with the big price tag of (up to) $9,000 for one egg. I knew I needed that money, and how harmful could it be? I figured they would just “scoop” out a few eggs I wasn’t going to use and freeze them. Then I did more research.
Turns out, the procedure itself is dangerous and the aftermath on your body is worse. One woman made a testimony that all the money she got had to go to numerous doctor bills that resulted in complications from the surgery. She wasn’t alone either. I later sent articles and what not to my friend, and she admitted she had no idea it could wreak that sort of havoc.
I’m not sure if this is a common feeling, but lately I’ve noticed that I know nothing about my female anatomy. I didn’t know that hysterectomies were dangerous and that the uterus was more than just an incubator for babies until recently. I didn’t even know what a vulva was 8 months ago, and that sex wasn’t supposed to hurt. I didn’t know that shaving can spread STDs more easily. There is a complete lack of knowledge on the female body and that isn’t helped by severely underfunded, underesearched, and male centric health standards for women. This new take on gender neutral language for problems women specifically face in terms of medication or anatomy isn’t helping either.
It’s scary that I don’t know things about my body, and it’s even more frightening to know that if I wanted to get the information it may not even be correct or available to me.
Radfems like to say “what is your definition of a woman” as a sort of rhetorical kill-switch, assuming that trans women (and our allies) will say that womanhood is some list of traits about femininity. In fact, our definition of woman is nothing. We don’t define womanhood. Any definition of a woman (or of any particular gender) assumes that gender is innate and has a True State of Being. Whether this definition is based in gendered traits of partiarchy or in the genital-worship of “biological sex” it enforces roles of gender upon women. If you insist that woman has a factual definition, you’ve already lost.
this post #DidThat
And this is exactly why trans ideology is antithetical to feminism and women’s rights.
How can someone think that words can have no meaning or definition and then think they’re being super progressive and smart bc of it?? Words have meaning. That’s the REASON they exist, you say a word and that word means something, therefore people understand what you’re saying. If you say woman has no definition then I can say a table is a woman and you can’t contradict me. If woman has no meaning then anything and everything can be a woman. This is ridiculous.
If words have no meanings then why tf do you get all pissy about being misgendered or women talking about our bodies around trans women?
how do you assume sexism works OP?
in the genital-worship of “biological sex”
you mean reality?
The genital hatred of biological sex.
The way biological women have our genitals tortured and used against us.
You definitely want to take away our ability to even have a way to define ourselves.
Because if you remove the words to describe something, it becomes hard/impossible to recognise and thus you imprison women in the genital hatred pushed on them by men.
And if woman is undefinable, and man is undefinable, then trans doesn’t exist and trans oppression isn’t real so take a seat and shut the fuck up whilst women deal with their own oppression without your annoying and useless interference.
“woman” is a meaningless word but y’all still sharting yaselves every time an actual female denies you the title so which is it lmfao
lol exactly^
“. In fact, our definition of woman is nothing. We don’t define womanhood. ”
Then you, and I can only be defined by our biology.
Male and female.
You’re also not transgender so you’ve now lost that oppression gambit too.
some people think i learned braille for Cool Points but i actually learned it bc my medicine holder has the days printed in braille and i forget to take my medication a lot. i didnt feel like turning on a light one night just to see my medication so i learned braille out of spite. now everytime i go anywhere i have to read the braille signs and i have seen “woman” misspelled as “noman” SEVERAL times.
Tired Of Waking Up To Take Medication? Learn Braille

If a gay person tells you they’re only attracted to people of the same sex, and your first response is to angrily go “So you have an obsession with genitals? You’re a depraved pervert who only cares about genitals?” Then you’re… homophobic.
if you don’t include trans people in “the same sex” or “the same gender”, you’re transphobic
Congradulations dipshit, you’re a cotton ceiling incel. Go fuck yourself and leave homosexuals alone.
I can’t believe “don’t make sexuality about genitals” is seen as a radical statement to some people
Like if a trans guy asks you out or hits on you or whatever and you’re first response response is “sorry I don’t like vag” then A) you are absolutely making this about genitals and B) you’re making creepy assumptions about somebody’s genitals. I mean they might not even be trans y’all just think that men and women all fit into some weird cookie cutter and anybody outside of it must be a “faker uwu”
Let’s give the benefit of the doubt and say that in your reply you don’t mention genitals (which based on my own experiences plus what I’ve heard from others, most people like this do mention genitals) if you reply by saying “I don’t date women” or “I only date men” and they tell you they are a man but you continue, then you are deliberately misgendering them and there is no excuse for that
It’s really not hard to say “sorry, I’m not interested” if you feel they are too feminine for your liking
As for talking about it online…. well why would you? what reason other than misgendering trans people do you have to tell people about your dating preferences?
I’m thinking all of what I’ve said is pointless though, considering TERFs and transmeds think that white people putting “no blacks or asians” in their dating profile is also okay because “it’s a preference”
“Don’t make sexuality about genitals” HOW DO YOU THINK PEOPLE HAVE SEX
Do you think people attracted to eachother just fuck all the time??? I’m gonna be reasonable and say ‘probably not’
People can be attracted to eachother without thinking about their genitals, espescially if they are minors, and sex isn’t a necessary part of a relationship
I mean some people just aren’t into sex. Not for any reason –they just aren’t that into it, that doesn’t mean they aren’t capable of feeling attraction or aren’t really the sexuality they say they are
Maybe take a step back and think about this, sexuality is romantic too
This is the worst and dumbest rebuttal lmao
No ofc people don’t have sex all the time and ofc there are people who, for whatever reason, don’t have sex currently.
This isn’t about the latter people.
This is, specifically about people who do have and want sex in their relationship, which ofc they won’t be having ALL the time (nice going there implying that gay ppl only care about sex, nice homophobia buddy!) but when they do have sex, as many people do and want, then genitals ARE going to be important for some people. And those people SHOULDN’T be made to be into sexless unsatisfying relationships (or worse, have sex they don’t want because they’re told they must, and yes that happens, especially with young lesbians your lot has been coercing into ignoring their own sexual desires for inclusivity points) because people should be allowed to specifically desire relationships they’re 100% happy in.
You, a minor, do not get to dictate the sexual lives of adults. People who aren’t having sex aren’t relevant to this conversation, you don’t get to strawman like this and make it about them, this whole conversation is specifically about gay people who do want sex in their relationships (and no, that doesn’t negate the romantic part you homophobe), who do care about genitalia and who should be able to seek the kinds of relationships that fulfill them. Dating is inherently exclusionary, and who I invite into my bed and into my life is MY bussiness only and I get to be as picky as I want because it’s about letting someone into the most intimate part of my life, not about activism and making sure everyone feels included. My body and love are not a political space for everyone to be included in, they’re private and I get to choose who comes near it and for what.
If you don’t agree with that, not only are you a homophobe, but you don’t believe in consent either! Have fun being a monster! 😀
@official-loka, I’m straight and I’d never date a transguy or nb afab etc. Even purely romantically and non-sexually. The very idea of being intimate with someone of the same sex, no matter what gender they identify as, and even if they had SRS, is just uncomfortable to me personally. I’d never be able to do it. But you don’t seem to harass the likes of me as much as gay ppl, I wonder why????? /s
You literally can see that these kids have never been in relationships, don’t know how sex works, and feel so entitled that everybody just accomodates their sexualities in order to not have sex for them and have romantic feelings for anybody, if you’re not bisexual you deserve to die bc you’re exclusionary. ~hearts not parts uwu~ ♡♡
