Woman = adult human female, why are they surprised that feminists are addressing the 'bleakness' of sex based oppression?

'fun stuff' I'm guessing they're talking about femininity and not things actually about being a woman...would be a cool song though
i would love to see it at eurovision
"sounds so fucking bleak i wouldn't want it" well I have some bad news for you sir, being female in this world is pretty fucking bleak. every month my uterus rips itself out and i'm sick for a week, every day i'm not taken seriously, passed over for jobs, expected to get married to a dude despite being a lesbian, and to get pregnant (and go through childbirth which probably feels like pushing satan through your vag without anesthesia).
all this while dodging creepy dudes, living in fear of rape and murder, and so on.
sorry I can't relax!
The "fun stuff" is part of being a multidimensional human being, not part of being a woman.
"Why can't this oppressed group who's discriminated for things they can't control just focus on the "fun stuff"? Like haven't they ever seen a romantic comedy or something? Those are totally true to life right?"
Fucking idiots. TRAs are so stupid and oblivious that it's a miracle they can even function. They make Trump supporters look like Nobel Prize winners.
He's not wrong though, I'd totally listen to this Viking metal song so at least he got "terfy" music taste right. Also they're so close to getting that being a woman really is that bleak and that what they consider "the fun stuff" is just performing femininity.
It's just painful to watch them insist that identity somehow has something to do with gender, it simply never occurs to them that "the fun stuff" is actually a bunch of personality traits that both men and women can have. How can they be so obtuse?
Hmm, and why would it be their place to correct women about what the experience of being female is like ? This arrogance is why people hate them.
On another note, I wonder what TERF black metal would sound like.
Lol they're so focused on being 'validated' themselves for their bad wigs and messy lipstick, yet refuse to accept actual female experiences as 'valid' womanhood. It's so pathetic
So they're ontologically shaky, fascinated by faerie tale notions of womanhood, by their own fantasies. This sounds like narcissism.
Now I want to start a metal band
Look up the band Seeds of Iblis.
"They never mention the fun stuff" - let's guess what this person's idea of their new "gender" was.
I'd like to see them list the "fun stuff"
Probably sleepovers, spinny skirts, and thigh high socks no doubt.
I've never read a literal definition of anything that included fun stuff. Well maybe theme park rides.
Oh do tell what the fun stuff is and why it is a female exclusive thing. I’m sure it won’t be steeped in stereotypes and sexist nonsense.
Yes, I’m wondering this, too.
What exactly is “the fun stuff”...?
When does it get fun??
Hmmm, men don’t want to hear about the realities of being a woman and only want to hear about the fun stuff.., tell me something new.
A blood sacrifice at the full moon sounds more fun than "uwu, slumber party pillow fight cat girldick!"
Wait, did you have a meeting without me? I'm still pushing "adult human female." Did we rebrand? I like the whole Satan angle, but it doesn't fit on a T-shirt as well.
This comment made my night lol
no
Well no one gets a choice, you complete idiot. I don't get to choose whether the Earth orbits the sun, either.
i was very into witchcraft when i was 12 and did get my period at the same age so i guess indeed i was performing blood rituals and pushing satan out of my vagina... i also thought my first period was poop for a hot second lmao
Hot take: They dont like hearing females talk about periods and childbirth not because it's exclusionary, but because it makes their cocks soft.
Its our job to make womanhood hot and sexy for them.
How typically male to frame women acknowledging the hard parts of being female, mostly caused by men, as self inflicted ritualistic nonsense.
No, at twelve we aren’t birthing Satan. At twelve we are experiencing men leering at our bodies like we are sex-meat.
At 12 are being told we are overly emotional and needy and embarrassing for expressing anything other than a giggle or batting eyelashes.
At twelve we are raising siblings and preparing family meals and cleaning up after brothers.
At twelve we are told by male doctors and teachers that menstruation isn’t that painful while losing consciousness on the floor.
They inflict their hatred and ignorance on women and then cry foul because women talk about it happening.
you absolute fucking hypocrite men deal with raising siblings and being overly emotional and trans men deal with peroids, we acknowledge that you have it hard but so does everyone fucking else, you are the one with the hatred and ignorance and whenever trans people talk about their problems i bet you silence them too. the only point the person in the post is trying to make is that being female isnt an exclusive thing. (also the person in the post inst even male)
You have missed u/ jupiterssunday 's point. The person in the post was making it sound like female struggles are self inflicted. In reality most of it is a result of the way society treats female people, like being sexualized by men at an early age.
Time use studies demonstrate girls on average have more household duties than boys. Sibling care usually gets pushed to eldest daughters, because of the social expectation of females as caretakers.
That's the thing though, people don't acknowledge female problems. Medical professionals often invalidate girl's concerns about extreme pain during menstruation and say they just need to toughen up.
In what way does women talking about female concerns "silence trans people"??
Being female is an exclusive thing, what are you trying to say? Of course it's exclusive. Exclusive to female people, that is. The point is, if you are able to comprehend it, that women deal with things that men do not. Like periods/menstruation, for example. Men cannot be women, and vice versa, because we have different experiences. We are socialised differently. Treated in different ways by society. Pointing out women's issues, many of which you can't relate to, should not agitate you so much :( You cannot experience womanhood, and not just because of your biology, though that is the root of it
Missed point? Check.
Namecalling whilst calling women emotional? Check.
Accusations of hatred based on nothing? Check check check.
Ya boring.
I would listen to that Viking metal song... Just sayin...
Mixed signals here. Is he implying blood sacrifices on full moons at 12... ISN'T the fun stuff? What have I been doing with my life...
There’s nothing fun about being a woman.
