That’s a lot of bullshit to say ‘tits, ass and porn’, sirs.

We know exactly what you believe a woman is. We see you acting it out every day. And then you wonder why we don’t like you.

“Softness and happiness with giggles sprinkled on top.”

Yeah! That’s me, day in, day out.

Softness and happiness with giggles on top? What the fuck?

Only English-speaking cultures know what a woman is 😌 The rest of us have no clue about biology and womanhood 🤡

Such deep philosophy is truly enlightening.

Remember tervens, it's just a weird coincidence that all over the globe cultures and faiths have claimed that the people giving birth to babies are inferior and cant be independant, educated, educating, shouldnt make big decisions on their own, manage their own lives and households and staying single and childless is the worst thing for them. 🤡

Men are people

Women are ideas thought up by men.

These ideas of womanhood are forcefully projected onto female bodies for the needs, satisfaction, and amusement of men

These ideas are also something men can don and doff for their needs, amusement and satisfaction

“Softness., happiness and giggles” “Collective imagination” “Self construction”

This is exactly why we need a precise definition. How can you talk and advocate for women as a collective if you can’t even identify the group you’re talking about?

A woman is an adult human female, point blank, this definition includes all women, even the ones who are intersex, who are infertile, who have had mastectomies, black women, women who are not performing femininity (I’m saying this since they looove using this as a counter argument). You’re either one or you’re not. We are not a fucking idea or a caricature.

If you want to perform femininity it’s your business, but you’re still a feminine male, you’ll never know what it means to be the other sex.

To me, a woman - a woman is synonymous for an adult human female. Female being a sex-based class around a species being able to (or intended by design - not hindered by genetic development (or lack thereof)) ovulate and create egg gametes, produce milk (naturally), and carry young (if we so choose).

Now, it's important (thanks to male abbreviations) to note that being a woman/being female does not reduce us to those qualities, but rather, fits us into a class where all women and by extension, female animals have (or were intended to have) these requirements. It's the same binary class-typing all female Animalia share across the board (mammals, fish, birds)

Furthermore,

Any mammalian or aquatic creature creature (not using insects for obvious reasons) that uses sex-based mimicry or camouflage, utilizes it to secure mating rights in all case scenarios. Meaning, animalistic comparisons to gender ideology would not translate across, unless the trans community is foolishly admitting that their entire ideology is based on the premise of impeding sexual boundaries for self-gain (lol),

The social response associated to women usually comes reactively to male oppression. Women aren't timid and quiet, we're spoken over. We're not delicate and dainty, we're infantilized.

When TiMs revamp these social responses as intrinsic ties to 'what a woman is'. Inadvertently states, that he, a male. See's our reactionary behaviour to his class created oppression as staple to our position in this world. Which is why the core of gender ideology is anti-women and anti-feminist.

Deep philosophy? From men? HA!

Title: A deep and somewhat philosophical question: What does it means for you to be a woman?

Comments:

Performativity theory really resonates with me, so to me "being a woman" means "doing a subset of the things that society has decided comprise womanhood". I like this because it lets me frame my performance of womanhood around parts of myself that I want to display, express or explore, and as a nonbinary woman, also gives me the option to do other things as well or instead, or to "do womanhood" in unexpected ways.

To me, "woman" is a word in the English language used to connote a collection of social and biological roles and functions in various English-speaking cultures.

My view is that gender is socially constructed, to the extent that, in as deeply social a species as our own, more or less everything is. Our social constructs are at the core of so much that we are. So to identify them as such is not to demean them. And to engage with social self-construction is in effect simply to engage with our way of being, as a species.

In our endless social nuance, we are so much a "self-made" species. Through the way we tell stories about ourselves, and relate to existing social conventions of narrative and social self-creation, and associate ourselves with our context and our history.

So for me, "woman" is a work of collective imagination, for the most part. But it is one in which I am a participant. As others are participants in the collective imagining of "parent" or the collective imagining of "husband", and so on.

I realise that's perhaps a more cultural-anthropological point of view than most here will share, and that's to be expected. Since culture is, most of the time, unaware of itself, and it is frivolous and nonsensical to wish that it should be otherwise. Particularly because, for the reasons I've observed, culture is so much of what we are.

What other ppl are saying but those subsets for me are softness and happiness with giggles sprinkled on top. Ofc, I live in real life so I don't really get to, but, I still get to pretend :D
