āItās just about getting muddyā is the ultimate gaslighting bullshit. We all know itās about pulling pigtails throwing tantrums harming girls as a form of ālikingā them making fun of girls calling girls stupid claiming girlsā crop tops āprevent learningā cat calling and yes. Rape
As a sex worker, I sold pics of me FEET, among other things. You know. Those appendages used for balance and walking, those weird ass things that often get stinky and stubbed and calloused?
So donāt try to tell me the problem is gym shorts. Men will sexualize *anything*
So women got smart and stopped making menās sexualization *our* problem. And thatās why so many of them are pissed overāchecks notesāSHORTS. Bc they canāt handle women ignoring their fetishes.
Women looking at men in short shorts: WOW HEāS HOT!
Men looking at women in short shorts: WOW WHAT A WHORE SHE DESERVES VIOLENCE AND THAT FACT SEXUALLY EXCITES ME
Really gonna need folks to explain why this distinction is so culturally important.
Methinks it has to do with perceptions of āwhichā women are deserving of respect and autonomy and āwhichā women arent.
And if youāre a woman propagating this puritanical hierarchy, u basic af.
And THERE it is. Men canāt stand sexually autonomous women bc that would complicate their emotional incest with mommy.
Ok what ifā¦ and Iām just spitballing hereā¦ women donāt dress for men? Like is your worldview so fucking myopic that you think looking cute is only ever in service to attracting the male gaze? Do you hate yourself so profoundly that you canāt even conceptualize your own freedom?
Men: IF WOMEN LIKE BOOTY SHORTS THEN WHY MAD ABT RAPE??????
Seriously, how did patriarchy ever get purchase on society? Yāall dumb as fuck.
Imagine if ādressing like a whoreā or, ya know, *being* a whore (which I am) didnāt translate to a lack of bodily safety or autonomy in the minds of misogynistic pricks.
Shane Gillis bombs #SNL monologue with cheap shots at women:
āAlso, I havenāt been to the gym in so long I didnāt know women just dress like wh*res now? Look, Iām sorry, thereās no other way to describe [it]. Have you seen it? Iāve seen it. Youāve seen the shorts? Theyāre those neon, like, artificial vape-colored [shorts], and the wrinkles go around the cheeks and all combine at the butth*le. And donāt look! Youāre not allowed to look. For real, donāt look, because they are filming. Iām in the background of ten TikToks right now.ā
The fact that women are not also experiencing a āloneliness epidemicā in the midst of crumbling hetero norms should tell you a lot abt what men have historically needed in order to feel āwhole.ā
They literally thrive on our subjugation and thatās the fucking problem.
The fact that Trump demanded the death penalty for the Central Park 5 but āfeels badā for the Cornell 7 shows how enmeshed white supremacy is in SA.
If you advocate for womenās paid domestic work but not s*x work, boy howdy do I have some news for yeā¦
How does it work? Exactly what you do for free on the regular but with cash. š¤·š»āāļø
The #metgala is fucking embarrassing. You canāt be rich AND a leftist. All these fucking posers should be ashamed.
Sex worker lezzies please listen. Today I was informed that your generation doesnāt know ani difranco. You need to know her. Please pleeeeease listen to her.
I charge $100 a song. On your lap. This will make sense when you listen.
