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 slurs: No n-words, misogynistic slurs (ex: bitch, slut, terf, cis), t-slurs or their derivatives (ex: trunacy, troon, Timmy, Timothy)
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~!
You need a camera for that? Does the skin to skin contact not work unless the photos are uploaded to social media?
Well I mean doesn't everyone show pictures of the baby pretty immediately in the past 15 years?? Smartphones and social media has facilitated this.
You're intentionally conflating two situations that are very different.
Situation A: A new mother posts a photo on social media of her first skin-to-skin contact with her infant, lying exhausted in the bed in which she just gave birth.
Situation B: A rich politician orders a baby from a biological mother, then months later shows up to the hospital and has his photo taken with his nonprocreative male partner lying in a hospital bed for no reason with their newly-acquired baby. Due to bed shortages and hospital regulations the exhausted mother who just gave birth may have been asked to stand next to the bed out of frame while holding a pile of sweaty sheets so she doesn't fuck up the photo.
Why are they in the fucking bed? Can you or I just wander down to our local hospital and climb into a bed for no fucking reason and take pictures? Did these two mess up a perfectly clean bed and require a hospital worker to change and resanitize the bed so they could have a photo op? Or did they kick the sweaty, exhausted (but now worthless, fuck off cunt you're ruining the photo) mother out of her own bed for the photo?
Which happened?
Nice fiction you're writing.
Buttigieg and his husband didn't "order a baby" and show up months later. This was not surrogacy and neither Buttigieg or his husband are the biological father of either baby. A woman gave birth, decided to place her children for adoption, and picked Buttigieg and his husband after the babies were born. They were not at the birth and did not shove the exhausted birth mother out of her own bed. Adoptive parents are usually given a room at the hospital to meet the infants they're adopting, they didnt just wander into the hospital for a photo op. They probably took photos on the bed because it is wide enough for them to sit side by side unlike most chairs in hospital rooms.
Do you think adoptive parents shouldn't take pictures in the hospital with the babies they're adopting? Or just the gay couples?
