@HedonisticApple @maiamindel No Millennial except for right wingers care about a lowered birth rate. Get serious.
English
@maiamindel Yall really just mad Gen Z feminism is lowering the birth rate.

@selenaphobic @jacktvvist @maiamindel I'm talking about the ones defending those celebrities under the guise of "it's body shaming" when it's called out. And I'm not the only one that sees it fashionmagazine.com/style/y2k-aest…
English
@m_marty67 @jacktvvist @maiamindel Umm, people’s eating disorders are not up for public scrutiny…
especially when sometimes it can turn out they have actually have another illness they don’t want to discuss publicly.
English
@jacktvvist @maiamindel There is a literal epidemic of celebrities & women who are EMACIATED & anytime we address how dangerous it is people chime in to say we aren’t allowed to discuss it bc it’s “body shaming” did we learn NOTHING from the early 2000’s? Don’t even get me started on GLP-1s.
English
@selenaphobic @maiamindel Feminism includes the choice to do what you want with your body.
Plus millennial feminism brought body positivity, and body dysmorphia into the forefront.
Ppl selling stuff online are just that, salespeople. This is a matter of discernment. Influencers are not all feminists.
English
@maiamindel as if millenial women don’t also defend getting facial filler in droves theres literally licensed derm and plastic surgeons on social media who promote it to young girls. yall wanna pick and choose what millennials influenced
English
@aletheia327 @_glorianas legislation for revenge porn, intersectionality, body+, sex+, for starters.
The ERA also wasn’t ratified, does that mean feminism was destroyed, and their impact was not meaningful?
The powers won’t even touch Epstein and you think MeToo would survive?
English
@_glorianas What successful feminist achievements? We couldn't even turn MeToo into an organized movement, feminism got destroyed by the right decades ago.
English
@Corrupted_Slug @goddammitsarah Black people use it all the time. And most Southern blacks use it. Not sure who you were around.
English
@goddammitsarah Huh. I've lived pretty much out of the south my whole life and I've heard more Yinz and Youse than Y'alls. American linguistics is fascinating (American Linguistics is also a great album name)
English
shocking number of people announcing how much they love to eat paint chips on this website lately
Muted. Argue with yourself.@___inCANdescent
Gen Z is kinda clocking millennial/Gen X feminists’ tea. Y’all said/say men are trash but then advocate for having casual sex with many of them and partaking in kinks that may be harmful. It never made sense.
English
@hyperl00n @_BigMadam_ And even better, look into the Womanist movement.
ꨄ︎ HPIC ꨄ︎@PinKIYSensei
This is your starting point for understanding what it means to be a womanist.
English
@hyperl00n @_BigMadam_ It’s very important people seek out information. Research and true learning requires unsolicited interest and discovery.
If you look in many of the replies coming out this discourse many books and feminist authors are mentioned.
The guidance is there, seek and ye shall find.🫶🏾

English
@CQueenbeejdl @basedrexic @catalystcomett So nothing new…
And yet, this discourse started from genZ upset ab the “hoe phase” ideology? Also, no mention of agency or consent? Which would help ppl like the OP avoid kinks they don’t actually enjoy.
What real world actions has GenZ taken towards reforming these issues?
English
@oldbcc @basedrexic @catalystcomett Feminism: marry who you want, or not, work and make your own money, have kids or not, take down the patriarchy that wants to put you in chains.
English
in the early 2000s, little girls were promising their virginities to their father's for "safekeeping" at highly ritualized balls and women who had premarital sex were being compared to used chewing gum in public school sex education classes.
thank god for millennial feminism.
English
@JorCru I’m gathering it’s all misinterpretation through children’s eyes and misremembering.

Brahms The III@oldbcc
Running this back cuz the Millennial feminist message was always clear… it’s sad to see a young generation being as reductive and obtuse as Jessie.
English
I'm gonna need folks to start citing sources. If this is going to keep up, it's time to link out to actual articles and books that lay out the Kinky Sluts Only No Exceptions guide to feminism of the Obama Era. Time to prove it!

English
@hyperl00n @_BigMadam_ older GenZ are all 20-30s.
there is compassion but it’s hard to understand what needs to be clarified when the resources are at everyone’s fingertips, and when this whole topic started with someone blaming an entire generation for their personal choices, then the pile on.
English
and no the youngest Gen Z is 14 years old, i’m sorry but we are still kids and we just reached adulthood like we JUST reached 30! the oldest millennial is almost 45. you guys have a library of nuance and research that won’t be able to access until later. pls i’m begging yall to give us some compassion. your 20s, in a Millennial’s words, are terrible and filled with bad takes. so like
English
@JahCominUp @offbeatorbit So then you’re describing the mass marketing and repackaged consumerist version of an ideology.
So again, media literacy is required, which I’m not sure you grasp what that entails. It is the receivers job to consider who wrote it and why so they can digest it accordingly.
English
@oldbcc @offbeatorbit No. I am referring specifically to a trend of faux intellectual hyper analysis. Cracked dot com type of millennial analysis into media without that deep of a textual meaning for fun pop culture reasons. In this era actual media literacy was commodified for entertainment purposes.
English
It is millennial feminism’s fault that you developed a daddy kink at 14 and read Lolita?
English
@hyperl00n @_BigMadam_ The library, online, book clubs, book lists, so many places. Tumblr shouldn’t be anyone’s main source for academia or philosophy.
Start with Bell Hooks.
And most importantly check your understanding by reading papers that analyze the text.
English
yes, me a Gen Zer i would like to know where do i begin that research? because i know for me it was radfems that were the ones on Tumblr making these sentiments that were right wing adjacent, they were immensely critical of the slut/hoe era stating we were feeding into the patriarchy anyway. i remember this well. so here am i seeking viable information to change
English
@JahCominUp @offbeatorbit Ppl suggest “no sex before marriage” & yet we all make our own choices.
So, were questions asked for clarification? And to whom?
Strangers online are not here to raise anyone’s children. unfortunate we share unflitered spaces, GenZ should work to change that since you know sm
English
@oldbcc @offbeatorbit I think adults should be mindful of how they present topics when making lifestyle suggestions. Im an adult now and I wouldn’t make a statement like “all men need to be patriarchs” or something stupid like that and then explain that I meant something more nuanced when questioned
English
@hyperl00n @_BigMadam_ Furthermore, I personally have reshared things that were willfully misunderstood.
The information is out there. And I literally found this video in the same thread where people were misrepresenting her message.
GenZ are not “kids” anymore. Also, did they ask or seek or blame?
Brahms The III@oldbcc
Running this back cuz the Millennial feminist message was always clear… it’s sad to see a young generation being as reductive and obtuse as Jessie.
English
@oldbcc @_BigMadam_ no i’m saying why can’t Millennials/Gen Z ask Gen Z kids why they don’t want to engage in feminism instead of saying they are reductive and negative about it? like let’s change the discourse into something productive and outcome based
English
@hyperl00n @_BigMadam_ Because we know why, at least in this particular example everyone is discussing this week. What is being said about the “hoe/slut” era is just right wing talking points.
Also GenZ is old enough now to look again at the things they misinterpreted & research the ACTUAL message.
English
@JahCominUp @offbeatorbit No, I am informing you that what you think is hyper introspection is not. It was the beginning of very BASIC media literacy and analysis.
The introspection done by millennials was in no way hyper and just the beginning of general awareness of what had just began in academia.
English
@oldbcc @offbeatorbit No. You’re misreading what I am describing with “hyper introspection on the”. Conflating it with basic media literacy is missing the point. Start over.
English
@DarkTriadChad @_BigMadam_ lol. It’s ok if you want to believe that but history shows that every new generation coming up finds the previous “cringe”…. I don’t think there is any generation that thinks / wants to appeal to younger gen’s cuz it’s expected & understood that what’s “cool” changes each gen.
English
@oldbcc @_BigMadam_ There is some of that, there's also a fair amount of bickering. Like I said, neither side is great. Gen z knows millennial women are desperate for their approval and is lording not giving it over them for all it's worth. Kinda sad, but it's hard to feel sorry for them.
English
@JahCominUp @offbeatorbit Actually there is plenty of conversation from Millennials about the need for dedicated online spaces for younger generations…
How do we check the ages of our audiences before we share? Should we stop pushing feminism because some people don’t monitor or advise their girls?
English
@oldbcc @offbeatorbit Not to mention we were the first gen to come up with social media meaning this was the first time where there were no lines drawn or curated aged based spaces. We talk all the time about alienation and the deaths of third places but when we discuss the results you deny it
English
@JahCominUp @offbeatorbit So should adults not share adult information with other adults in adult platforms because other people won’t guide or monitor their children?
It’s all millennials women’s fault that minors misinterpreted messaging that was never intended for minors?
English
@oldbcc @offbeatorbit The specific genre of “the secret message you never noticed in X media property” was formed by millennials and young gen xers online. And of course buzzfeed isnt for minors. When has something being for minors Changed what they or society as a whole are influenced by?
