Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I honestly find this post gross. Feminism isn’t daydreaming about turning the tables, it’s about leveling them.

That's a really interesting perspective. To me it's not about that it's just to illustrate how wrong it is... kinda like when someone says something ableist and you substitute black for disability in what they say to highlight how discriminatory it is

If it was swapping one discriminated group for another (ie, disabled for black) then I could see it as that sort of comparison. But the specific structure of the text in this pic sounds more akin to “imagine a world where white people were the slaves.” I hear an implied, wistful “if only….” at the end.

The image smacks of I don’t want to suffer, I want the other side to suffer.

I’m sure it’s not your intent, but it’s also implying that the average person agrees with “dad is baby sitting while mom is parenting.” And I’d say that statement alone would get the average person’s back up.

I respect that although I see it differently ❤️
