Hi, sisters! Nice to meet you all for the first time.I am a radfem form Asia. Here are my answers to several questions in the pinned post.

Q: What drew you towards feminism?

A: From a young age, both the family and school educational policies are aimed at conditioning women to willingly and blindly get married and have children. However, I felt uncomfortable and suffocated by all of this. Seeds of doubt were planted in my heart. In early 2021, I encountered many sisters on a certain platform who were similar to me.They were struggling, angry, and unwilling to accept the status quo. They were so natural and full of vitality. I learned that women are used by the government as a tool to maintain stability, to appease men and prevent them from rioting. And women are too docile and easy to be controlled like cotton sheep, so the laws written by men are more biased towards men in the implementation process. We have come to the unspoken conclusion that we need violence, we need more bad woman. I came into contact with the thoughts of Korean feminist sisters, including the concepts of 6b4t: no sexual relations, dating, marriage, or childbirth with men; not buying misogynistic products; supporting women's mutual aid; rejecting religious influence, restrictive clothing, otaku culture, and idolatry.

Q: What have been your experiences the feminist movement?

A: No. Currently, I am still in underground combat mode. My country is currently engaged in witch-hunting in the new era. They do not allow the presence of voices that contradict the mainstream. Once such voices emerge, they will delete posts, impose bans, deactivate accounts, and even detain individuals, which affects learning, work, and personal life. You may be labeled as a crazy woman and be locked up in a mental hospital or confined by your family. Only feminism that benefits men is allowed to exist.

Q: How did you first encounter feminist thought? Books or blogs, youtubers or conversatisions with feminst friends?

A: On the majority of online platforms in my country, the term "women's rights" is often censored or indirectly mentioned. Initially, when I saw the homophonic abbreviation, I didn't even associate it with the concept of women's rights. As each group chatroom was being shut down, some sisters suggested that we should go to Twitter, where speech is relatively free, and there's no need to use abbreviations for homophones. It is less likely to have our accounts suspended or banned without reason. Afterwards, when I joined Twitter, I encountered sisters where groups of people tirelessly spread awareness and knowledge. I became one of those who benefitted from their efforts.

Q: Has your feminism changed over your life? For instance, were you a liberal feminist who radicalised?

A: At first, I believed in gender equality for both men and women. However, as I witnessed numerous wrongdoings committed by men, I came to understand that choosing neutrality between the disadvantaged and the privileged actually meant taking the side of the privileged. As a result, I naturally became an advocate for radical feminism.

Q: What changes has becoming a feminist made to your life, your perspectives, your activism, your relationships, etc?

A: I often feel angry. I can no longer engage in romantic relationships with men, pretend to ignore all forms of discrimination, and tolerate men's sense of entitlement. In the past, I felt like a combination of contradictions, with countless chaotic thoughts in my mind. But now, my logic is consistent and coherent.I have grown to love life and experience the vastness and diversity of existence, instead of being confined to the expectation of getting married and having children after graduation.

Q: What are your priorities as a feminist?

A: To be alive, To uphold the position of being a female engineer, Find ours sisters.
