We are the radfem meme circle
The Old Queen r/trollgc is dead, may she forever rest in power.
Long Live the New Queen at Ovarit: Radfemmery.
The Radfemmery is a place for users to share screenshots, memes, and gifs related to all aspects of radical feminism. We want to blur the line between being funny and serious, so that we can find humour and release in a world that's more often than not against us. Better to laugh than cry sometimes. All areas of radical feminism can be meme’d.
Moreover, The Radfemmery is where we gather round and share content from radfems/GCs meant for radfems/GCs. This circle is not for sharing the foolishness of TRAs, libfems, and men. That content belongs in o/TransLogic.

Tip: If you aren't sure where a post should go, check out o/ItsAFetish and o/TransLogic to decide whether or not those would be better circles to post in.
Rule 1: Appropriate Posts
Memes, screenshots, and gifs ONLY
NO text posts or copypasta.
NO linking to news articles or outside websites, even those satirical or sardonic in nature.
Stick to visuals.
NO PORN VISUALS OR TEXT (They fit better at o/ItsAFetish)
NO genital pictures, including neovaginas and neophalluses. Mastectomies and breast implants will be taken on a case-by-case basis.
Rule 2: Inappropriate Content
NO TiM/TiF/MTT/FTT SELFIES ALLOWED
NO TRANSFOOLERY FROM TRAS THEMSELVES. THIS BELONGS IN O/TRANSLOGIC
Rule 3: *The NO List*
NO misogyny, racism, sexism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, ableism, ageism, colorism.
NO debating. Take debates to other circles. Do NOT debate tenets of various philosophies here. No derailing or sealioning. No DARVO.
NO template gripes.
NO conversion therapy (aka Genital Preferences are Transphobic) or other right-wing, conservative talking points allowed.
NO joking about any and all illegal activity that could actually happen
NO talking about downvotes. For the love of all that is female, STOP talking about downvotes. Mods are sick of it. No griping about how many downvotes your comment or post got, or another person's comment or post got. Those comments will be deleted even if they accompany otherwise good commentary.
Rule 4: Redactions
Reddit names do NOT need to be redacted, neither do Chapo Chat names, etc.
Do not redact the Twitter handles of TRAs and misogynists.
Verified users are always fair game.
FACEBOOK NAMES NEED TO BE REDACTED
We do NOT protect misogynistic men and their sycophants. Record any and all misogynies.
Sitewide Rules and Sitewide Guidelines are enforced here.
Happy memeing~!

Commenter 1: It's interesting how after you stop using social media, your brain no longer accepts photos or videos containing filters or edits as a matter of course. That's what happened to me, at least. I stopped using it and I became more aware that what I'm seeing is not natural, and honestly, you start to think it's even weird how beauty is treated on social media.
Commenter 2: I experienced something similar. I still use social media, but I kind of made my algorithm change to be more geared towards my hobbies and ranch and horse stuff, and not girls I would wish to look like. Now that I've done that and spent more time observing beautiful people and their flaws in real life and even in Love Island (sounds stupid I know, but it allows me to see how even the most beautiful people aren't perfect all the time and have flaws but are still considered stunning), I can barely stand to look at photos of instagram models and influencers. The surgeries and filters and photoshop is so painfully obvious. I don't find them attractive or desirable anymore, and I embrace my flaws more and even see them as contributing to my beauty
Commenter 3: And if you're a bit older. I'm 31 and couldn't care less about these weird photoshopped aliens. It does all look so strange and not appealing if you're not constantly following those people and being brainwashed by what they're promoting. I always think, if I ate like that, I wouldn't be able to climb a mountain (or other fitness activity). I'd rather be strong than frail.
