Very relatable post. I chuckled all the way through but it's actually pretty good advice for a situation I'm sure many of us have been in. Keep up the good work Garwhoungle!
This was awesome. Best line: “How did it start declaring that young women hating their bodies is a human right and we must celebrate and affirm their self harm?”. You hit the nail on the head.
Thank you for this great post. It's bad enough that we have to live with male supported patriarchy, but when women shill for them, well, despair can easily set in. A really useful book is Holly Lawford-Smith's "Gender Critical Feminism". In a nutshell, this explains really clearly how and why the concept so beloved of 4th wave feminists' "intersectionality" is a total loser for women's rights. Because if we are expected to deal with the oppression of every other group before tackling women's oppression, we never ever make it to the top of the 'to-do' list, because being kind (which apparently, we are so good at), means that there will always be some other societal fragment more deserving of our attention.
Absolutely brilliant and very useful indeed. Thank you!

This also talks about how these flawed belief systems are just a cult in drag: https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/religion-cult-whatever
Brilliant. This should also be required reading for all gender critical 'feminist' parents of high school students and university students.
