welcome to the fest

If the pictures have cooties, then so do the women. I'm not saying this is an ideal reality, I'm saying this is a reality. Women have been suppressed and subverted for centuries. Until recently, women didn't have many life choices, they were either wives/widows, nuns or whores. Even then, some wome...

Is it an USA thing to call kids "puppies"? Sorry, I'm used to see you all as mostly children-haters. Not only because of stereotypes but because of actual research on child-adult relationships throught the world. USA mostly treat their own children as some kind of disease and that sickens me . Woul...

The unfortunate fact is that abuse survivors can all too easily become abusers. I'm only defending those sexually exploited children that grow up to be sexually exploited adults. Those that are still either pimped out or pimp themselves out sexually for money because they've been taught that that's...

Jfc, take a chill pill. I'm with you when it comes to fighting for a better world where children aren't prey to evil adults. But for real: take a chill pill. I was not all up your ass, I never spoke against exploited men and children, and you came at me like I killed someone in your family. take. a...

Idk where did you get I wasn't including men just because I didn't mention them, since they are not the majority of exploited people in that horrible industry. I think the misunderstanding is pretty self-explanatory since, as you yourself say, you didn't mention them, but I apologize for the misund...

While I can sympathize with Tat, positive portrayals be damned. If they don't want to be portrayed as assholes, they shouldn't act like assholes.

It feels more to me like most cases of men speaking up against patriarchy, all air and no substance. Sure, he said the words, but there was no force behind them and he didn't bother to stick around to have a real conversation or to make a real point.

Because they need to stop thinking it's normal for men to buy sex and exploit women and children in exchange. I'm a female survivor of very young childhood exploitation, by my mother of all people, starting before I was even school age. Luckily, someone intervened early and I escaped any permanent ...

Now we're hijacking the thread, and I'm okay with that. But back then, I don't think it was ever an option that boys could be taught to control themselves. BULLSHIT!!! What the hell are you saying? How can you even think those words, let alone TYPE them and call yourself a radical feminist? It's ALW...

Hi all, I know this topic has been quiet for a couple of weeks, but I'm new to the forum and a couple of things here really grabbed my attention. I'm not even sure why the question of whether Trans Women were welcome was brought up. I thought that the issue of who was welcome and who was not was add...
