Also I Feel Like The Liberal Idea Of Delinquency

Gets applied to leftist forms of social justice way too often and people who do bad stuff are labelled as “just bad” and they need to be killed or imprisoned because they’re “monsters” and IDK I just find the idea that so many people, anyone who’s ever fucked up or done something problematic is irredeemable to be… really scary and bad.

People are redeemable.  I don’t believe in prisons.  If you believe in the possibility of social change without simply massacring anyone who holds a position of privilege, you have to believe in the possibility of redemption, of learning better.

I also think it’s really fucked how the people who admit their wrongdoings are the ones we jump down the throats of.

Also I Don’t Really Love “Sex shaming”

as a term for the behavior either because it’s actually got relatively little to do with actual sexual behavior (as studies mentioned previously show).  I mean it’s really more “enforcing codes of bourgeois femininity and maintaining class divisions through setting up working class and especially working class out-group women as deviant and hypersexual” but that’s kinda wordy.

Kill the “naturally beautiful women are virtuous and generous and kind and women who practice artifice are vain, selfish, catty and evil and ugly women are monsters or punchlines” trope

Please.
Beauty standards are evil and I’m sick of the idea that women who look like me are vain and evil and hate other women.

Motherfucker half the reason I do all this stuff is because I love hanging with other women and sharing arcane beauty knowledge.

Also Please Protect Men Who Have Been Victims of Sexual Violence By Women

It happened to someone very dear to me recently, and people are saying all sorts of horrible shit to him (and these people call themselves feminists and would never dream of saying this shit to a woman in the same situation) “Well you shouldn’t have been that drunk” “why didn’t you push her off” “why did you keep talking to her after” “why didn’t you confide in someone” (he did, the day after) and now people are accusing him of being the aggressor when the perpetrator has a pattern of taking advantage of seriously intoxicated men and it’s just really really fucked up.

Admit women are human and capable of doing the same evil shit as men please.  We’re not perfect just cause we’re oppressed.

The Intersection Of Anti-Blackness and Classism

Is a thing where the forms of oppression (and I use classism not in the liberal sense, but as in the aggressive expression of class tensions created by capitalism) are so closely intertwined it’s often not even considered an intersection. 

Like a lot of terms (I’m not going to use them because they are cruel words and it’s not my place) are racialized, but also intensely classed and often heavily gendered as well.  They’re used to describe proletarian black women’s forms of femininity and also I have to say those forms of femininity are badass (and of course the white bourgeoisie is appropriating them, but also it’s interesting and worth noting that black members of the bourgeoisie cannot adopt these signifiers because of how respectability works, which just goes to show how shitty everything is)  

Working class black women are so important and we must protect them at all costs.

I See A Lot Of Posts About Shitty Boys Who Will Lie, Cheat and Manipulate To Get Sex

and no lie, they are shitty slimey little fucks, but honestly you know what’s worse than those? 

Shitty boys who will lie, cheat, and manipulate to get a relationship.  You can lose years to those sneaky bastards.  They’ll drain every last drop of emotional support from you and don’t give a fuck about who you are as a person.

Also I’m not into the whole “Women always want commitment” stereotype cause sometimes we really don’t.
