QuestionWhat makes you happy to be female?
Posted January 2, 2022 by ghoul2Ghost w/the most in Women

I am determined to take some time off this site - or at least the news for a while - there is a lot going on in the world that is unkind to women that makes female life hard. I have placed consuming this negative news in the forefront of my mind like an idol.

However, I have also been thinking about that andrea long chu quote that disgusts me to no end, which is "everyone is female, and everyone hates it." I will not let this define my femaleness, not now nor ever. Hating womanhood aids the enemy. So I want to encourage all of us to examine ourselves outside the male gaze and society's constraints. I am starting to believe that true female joy is empowering in the face of those who want us to suffer. What makes you happy to be a woman?

And if you can't think of anything: what makes you happy to be who you are right now even if you think it has nothing to do with your womanhood? By enriching any part of your life, by educating yourself, you are helping to enrich the collective womanhood of earth. Do it out of spite if nothing else. Our victory is shared.

May you have a blessed and vibrant january my sisters.

Edit: yes I know I came right back to read the responses. Oops.

There are many alleles too, so I think the next step is to question how do we know we are even human?

Do they just throw words together? Do they never bother with definitions at all?

I think it is that. Cut a few words out of a genetics textbook, but in a hat and shake.

Yes, that's exactly what they do to try and seem smart in any way. When anything this person says still amounts to two sexes.

So they're saying because of genetic diversity, and the fact that no two individual gametes contain all the same mix of genetic material, the categories of egg and sperm cease to exist. Right. Sigh.

egg, spegg, sperg, sperm

This is why men constantly give birth to YY babies. When two sperms meet, one fertilizes the other and causes the man to become pregnant and give birth.

Love your username

Thank you!

I also came up with the name for the website. Not to brag or anything…

Teach us mere mortals your great naming skills oh wise one.

My original flair on /r/GC was, in fact, "Captain AFAB hunting the White Male".

Boiled in an eggcup, at that.

Saw this one on Twitter. I swear DrEm (FondOfBeetles, i think) has the patience of a saint. And she's hilarious. For those who didnt see: its in answer to someone responding to Dawkins' infamous Tweet comparing trans and Dolezal. I do have to say that im genuinely worried about the education these people have. It looks like they genuinely believe total nonsense. Its like arguing with flat Earthers.

Delicious_ComfortApril 12, 2021

Did they really try to argue with Dawkins, a very well known biologist, with that silly word soup? The audacity!

bumpyjerboaApril 12, 2021

This reminds me of the new atheist involvement in the evolution/creationism "debate." Same shit, different decade.

KissMyOvariesApril 12, 2021

Hey, ma! I can use big words! 😂

goodyusernameApril 12, 2021

That is some bad science, my dude.

bumpyjerboaApril 12, 2021

That's not how it works. That's not how any of this works.

Lorena_woodApril 12, 2021

This has got to be satire right? Please tell me its satire!

[Deleted]April 12, 2021

Do they make this shit up as they go along, or is there some bullshittery 101 text book they’re all pulling from?
