how I look at the male who just confidently said something on a topic I know more than him about knowing I'm about to girl-splain it to him and get called a "cold bitch" after approx. 7 minutes
Women's day coming up can't wait to answer "I'll be happy when you stop killing us" to all men who tell me "happy women's day!!!!"
I love being in a women-only fighting class but kinda miss being able to kick men when I was in a mixed one :(
it's always "makeup is about self-expression," yeah why does your self-expression always include glassy skin and contour that makes your face look skinnier?
no girl, your full face of makeup with a vaguely unusual eyeshadow colour is not "men repellant", stop kidding yourself
How do you cope with misogyny? I find myself getting depressed when I realize how much everyone hates women and that the world would never change.
meh I'm just really angry all the time.
Serious answer: I try to uplift/help/support the women in my life and I engage in activism and politics, I think it's normal to grieve what we could've had if we didn't live in a patriarchal system but our actions can and will be meaningful for so many women and that's something, it's a lot actually.
Less serious answer: I think of mysoginistic men when I hit the boxing bag hehe
What 5 years of left wing mayor did to my hometown before the right came along and made it a wanna-be-american automobile hellscape again
How I’m tryna live quite frankly
Feminists have never treated men the way mysoginists treat women, so yeah, I think this was abundantly clear.
Hello there! Dear tumblr user, did you know that "men as a class hold privilege and power over women" and "men are human beings who deserve basic decency" are two stances that can coexist :)
20-something socialist woman, this blog is a sharing space for thoughts and opinions because I miss being politically active (which is on hold for personal reasons - mainly getting a degree)
I'll talk mainly about feminist theory and anything related, my positions are radical - I'd love to interact with people who share (not necessarily) similar views.
Also some occasional posts on music, art and the likes, everything fiercely nonconformist.
You can call me M :)
It follows Delia, a woman stuck in an abusive marriage, during the days of the first italian general elections in which women were allowed to vote, just after the liberation from fascism, while american troops were still patrolling italian streets.
It's fun and delicate while tackling important issues, and it's one of the few strongly feminist movies that managed to appeal to the general public in a country in which femicide is still a prominent issue which our government refuses to talk about.
It was Cortellesi's directional debut (she's also a co-writer and plays the main character), which is wonderful on its own but even more so as it was the most successful film at the Italian box office in 2023.
Please please please support women directors, especially those who are not american and struggle to get to an international public.
Paola Cortellesi and Emanuela Fanelli in "There's still tomorrow"/"C'è ancora domani" (2023)
I'm begging all feminists to watch this movie if you haven't, it was huge in Italy and deserves more international recognition
