IRL meetings in North Florida?
Hey everyone. I remember there was a rally organized by radfems in the Jacksonville area either last year or earlier this year. I’m in the north Florida area, and I would love to meet fellow radfems irl. Is there anyone who maybe participated in the event or is a radfem who’d be interested in starting an IRL radfem discussion group/book club?
Why would banning pornography cause real harm to transgender people? It certainly wouldn't cause real harm to real women.
I’ve seen them argue that the death penalty for paedophiles would be targeting them. They really, really do love telling on themselves.
Look at the comments in that thread. They do make that argument there. IIRC it was the top comment at the time
lmao it's like when pornhub removed half its content and men were having full on mental breakdowns over losing their saved abuse porn 🤡🤡🤡
Not to be mistaken for an opinion on Project 2025 as a whole, but—— ❤︎❤︎❤︎ I love that paragraph so much. Every single word of it, just YES.
111 words of poetic, aspirational, beauty—thinly disguised as stolid, moralizing prose—written by someone who has clearly listened, thoughtfully and critically, to the concerns of radical feminists and Women in general.
Thank you to both /u/civillycrass and @NastasyaFilipovna for the unexpected little booster shot of gratification from reading these lovely words again.
I like it too but it's based on religious beliefs. Nobody who wrote this listened to radical feminists or women. The idea of the Heritage Foundation and it's ilk listening to radfems a pipe dream
The conservatives think that transgenderism doesn't oppress women the "correct" way, which is why so many of them are against it.
It's like they are calling a spade, a spade. Totally see what's underneath the UwU mask of this trans insanity
Likely the single good thing in that entire document, and TIMs are having meltdowns over it.
The 2.3k upvotes are the most telling part. It's not that one of these perverts looked at this and went "oh no this is a personal attack on me!" It's that when he shared it 2300 other perverts agreed with him.
Considering how many TIPs basically identify as their porn of choice, checks out.
Of course they're upset. That's their entire lives on the line. I mean what's next? Redefining what it means to be a woman by claiming women aren't just sex toys? /s
So ignoring these guys.. Porn is horrible and this excerpt may sound nice on the surface to any who think so, but knowing this is coming from project 2025 there is serious concern that it will be used to get rid of all sex ed material and art with nudity.
Here’s the slippery slope fallacy coming up fast!
Nothing about this is fallacy when it’s literally their intent. It’s not even a slope. It’s just the dirt under the rug.
They want the people oppressed and ignorant. They sell the more popular aspects of the policy to the public (regulating or banning harmful porn) to shoehorn in unpopular aspects of the policy under the table (destroy sex ed) because they literally want more pregnant teens and more poorly educated people to manipulate and exploit. They’ve literally already let the mask slip earlier last year about wanting more pregnant teens. This is part of that.
Maybe they’ll leave the nuance up to “state’s rights”, just like with abortion! Also, thanks to the SAVE act, another thing born from the abomination that is project 2025, soon voting rights for married women with name changes might also be up to “state’s rights”. 😇
*When asked, the sponsor of the voting rights bill has literally said it's going to be up to the individual states how to handle it.
Well, they'll have to define porn if any laws are written, and I can't imagine that anything this bad would pass.
Our lovely, devout Catholic Amy Coney Barrett, for example, would likely not agree that "art with nudity" is porn–Christians (but especially Catholics, Anglicans, Episcopalians) would have to destroy a lot of religious art to pass that. And once the term is properly defined, sex ed materials (which shouldn't include any depiction of sex anyway) would likely not fall under the law's umbrella.
It's even more likely that conservative men who use porn will be the ones to (quietly) smack it down, and nothing will be done at all.
The nuance will likely be up to the states like with everything else. Deep red states will not draw the same line as you. The historic original art painted on cathedral walls that often comes to mind wouldn’t be destroyed… because most of it is in Europe. Any framed art with full frontal nudity in the states would be stored and become inaccessible to the public, and distributing versions with full nudity would be punishable. Any public displays would be censored the same way they have been censoring them for years. With flowing white cloth painted over the naughty bits.
Here's how the pornography discussion goes when dealing with TIMs:
"You're addicted to pornography."
"No I'm not!"
"Well here's a bunch of your posts showing you are obsessed with pornography."
"That doesn't mean I'm addicted to pornography!"
"Fine, go a month without viewing or posting about pornography."
"So what if I'm addicted to pornography? I'm not hurting anyone!"
"Here's a few ways pornography harms all women."
"TRANSPHOBIC! BLOCKED! I WIN!"
Every TIM. Every time.
