You can imagine what this did to me as a naive 21 year old ‘man’ when I first read it

@Michaeldudufudu I do not think that this is true and it makes me suspect you've never seen any of these people in the wild, except, I'm taking it, for ladyboy prostitutes — who, sure.

Cis Western women hate troons because they femininity mog them. Just to be clear, I don't support transgendering in any way but it's worth noting what the REAL cause of terfdom is: jealousy.

@KeyedCorbusier That's sort of true, but it's distinctly not the point being made and you may have autism.

Because a “revolutionary” being some kind of vulgar anti-social punk is a May-68 postmodern myth. Robespierre, Mussolini or Lenin wouldn’t run a red light.

@polypocketknife That is exactly the opposite of what this article implies.

i once naively believed that men just genuinely considered women less capable but now i understand that they know women are every bit as competent as them and they actively sabotage women’s social mobility because a financially dependent woman is easier to control, own, and rape.

Jeffrey Epstein didn't just abuse girls and women -- he actively used his power and money to keep women out of the rooms where scientific careers are made. "The women are all weak, and a distraction sorry," Epstein wrote in an email to literary agent John Brockman, demanding that the only two women on the guest list of an elite academic retreat in Connecticut be removed. That email, revealed in a DOJ document release, is just one thread in a sprawling web of correspondence showing how Epstein and the prominent scientists he bankrolled treated women not as intellectual peers but as lesser beings to be excluded, mocked, and dismissed. "I think we all had a sense that the system wasn't super fair, right?" said Nicole Baran, a biologist at Davidson College and member of 500 Women Scientists, a grassroots organization that has worked to confront racism and misogyny in STEM since 2016. "Seeing some of these emails -- and peering behind the curtains of the rooms that we were never invited into -- has really laid bare just how broken and corrupt the system is." As detailed by the nonprofit newsroom The 19th, the emails reveal how Epstein's patronage worked as a career accelerator -- but only for men. He funneled millions into their research, hosted networking dinners at his homes, invited them to his island and his ranch in Santa Fe, and connected them to wealthy funders and Silicon Valley power players working on emerging technologies like AI. These men got well-funded labs, lucrative book deals, and access to an elite network that compounded their influence. Women, meanwhile, weren't just left out of this pipeline -- they were actively derided by the men inside it. AI researcher Roger Schank suggested in one email that it's "hard to be brilliant if you are worrying if you look fat or why another woman hates you" -- dismissing women as too preoccupied with appearance and social anxiety to achieve real intellectual focus. Epstein's response was even more blunt: "No really smart women -- none." The blatant contempt in these exchanges stunned even women who already knew the playing field was uneven. "I think what was most shocking was simply how blatant and explicit the misogyny was," said Lauren Aulet, a neuroscientist and assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts. "We have this narrative that explicit misogyny is something from the '50s and '60s, " she continued, "and what we have now is implicit bias and microaggressions. I think this made clear that explicit misogyny is still out there in science and in academia, it's just perhaps behind closed doors." For some of these men, consequences are finally arriving. Larry Summers -- whose correspondence with Epstein revealed a deeply personal relationship with the convicted sex offender long after his 2008 conviction -- announced in February that he was resigning from Harvard at the end of this academic year. He'd already been on leave since November and had stepped down from the OpenAI board and other public positions as the fallout mounted. The interactions revealed in the files are "very dehumanizing" for women, Baran said. "These are men who had colleagues and mentees that were women. And I think what was so clear is the way in which women in particular were just not spoken about as people with equal intellectual capacity and power." As a professor, the revelations have made her think about the young women she sees entering the sciences today. "Will their ideas be taken seriously?" she wonders. "Will their creativity, brilliance or ingenuity be taken seriously? Or will it be dismissed or ignored?" © A Mighty Girl #drthehistories

@rubychampionnn probably because it's for gay men and not cartoonish transsexuals is my guess

i truly don’t understand how any queer person can be into rocky horror picture show and not feel constantly humiliated

@AnnaTLeigh …and it's displeasing to see her name raked through the mud by a bunch of stupid trannies who have never read her work, have no idea what the fuck it's about, but who assume on the basis of the word "gender" that it must be them.
English
@AnnaTLeigh If I sound pissy, it's because Butler is, for all her myriad flaws and idiotic ideological commitments, a serious, thoughtful academic with things to say about gender that are interesting, regardless of whether they're true or false…
English
Mainstream queer-transgender theory (Butler et al) has been, in retrospect, a massive NET NEGATIVE for transsexuals and for dysphorics/eggs/reppers
Time it spends explaining/educating on HRT and why it's urgent / time-sensitive: 0
fffffff@d7bkuju
it's crazy how if you're trans basically your entire life is decided by how early you get on hrt and yet there's almost zero urgency to do so outside of 4tran spaces

A man's peak is around 36 to 37. Maybe even early 40s. That's when he'll write a bestselling novel or be discovered as a sleeper DJ music talent. Until then, he can afford to not have a real job and jack off all the time and play video games

"Morality" is just a definition. It is just a concept and isn't a real thing. So yes, you can define it as only pertaining to things that you are strong at, while excluding things that you are bad or weak at

I'm so tired of lateness being viewed as a moral failing. I've been shamed for it my whole life because it's framed as "disrespect" (and no, it hasn't helped me be more punctual) and if I lost out on a major life opportunity because of it I don't think I could have ever recovered

I'm generally skeptical of MAID but there are cases for which it seems indicated.

You know sometimes I think I’m an anxious person, but then I encounter the headspace of an actual anxious person and I feel so light, free and empty headed by comparison

"The raped" is popular because of Sam Altman and Peter Thiel. As CIA, which controls the alt right, realized it can't contain the Epstein scandal, it rushed to turn rape into a meme as damage control. They are also currently working to normalize pedophilia as fast as possible.
uke creature🇵🇸🚩@UkeCreature
“the raped” is one of the most disgusting phrases to gain prominence online. like making fun of someone for (hypothetically) being a victim of rape is just beyond cruel. like what kinda medieval morality are people operating off of where that’s a moral failing??

Stop sending this to me. Stop sending this to me and asking if my neo-vagina is 6.5” deep.

@PussyCacaWorld @w0rmpilled No, I personally know Alok and he's just a slimy careerist. If you could make money and gain fame by talking about yourself endlessly, wouldn't you?
English
@w0rmpilled I'm willing to put money that Alok is a CIA asset and an informant
English
can't stop thinking about when my old therapist said I should look into alok bc i have internalized transphobia bc i was complaining about wanting to be seen as just a normal woman
aria@m8ss3ducti0n
