Patriarchy sexualizes women for existing, then punishes them for owning their sexuality.

a raiva em mulheres é sexualizada,
a timidez em mulheres é sexualizada,
a falta de inteligência é sexualizada,
e a própria inteligência também.
ser mulher é ser sexualizada por literalmente tudo o que você sente ou faz, mas se você é uma mulher sexual, você é demonizada.
Women: "He raped me"
1850: Was she a respectable woman?
1900: Why didn't she resist?
1960: What was she wearing?
2000: Why didn't she report it?
2015: Why did she wait so long?
2026: What about his future?
Different generations. Same
determination to put the victim on trial.

Society celebrates the birth of a child, then leaves the woman who gave birth to recover in a system that barely sees her.

Women are “too much.” Until something is needed from them.
“Too emotional.” Yet expected to manage men’s anger.
“Weak.” Yet expected to carry paid work and unpaid care without complaint.
Women’s strength is praised when it serves others—and punished when it serves themselves.

If marriage requires one person to abandon their ambitions while the other keeps theirs, that's not partnership. That's a hierarchy.

No man stops his studies to get married. No man moves away from his friends for a woman. No man sacrifices his dreams when in marriage. But we find it normal when a woman does it.

Rape culture doesn't begin with violence.
It begins when violence becomes something people are taught to laugh at.

A system that interprets women’s autonomy as social decline is revealing how deeply it depends on their unpaid labor, reproductive choices, and compliance.

women choosing not to marry isn't a crisis.
Women choosing not to have children isn't a crisis.
Women choosing not to date isn't a crisis.
A society that only functions when women cannot comfortably say
"no" is the crisis.

Funny how demanding equality is considered radical, but generations of women living under inequality were considered normal.

"Feminism is too extreme now" you know what's actually extreme?
Women being killed by their partner every day
Girls being denied education
Victims being blamed for what they wore
Feminism is a response, not a problem

Remember how male writers who stopped writing after their wives died were said to have “lost their muse”? Maybe what they lost wasn’t inspiration, but the woman whose uncredited work made theirs possible.

Remember those stories about male writers who stopped writing after their wives died, and we called it "losing their muse"? They didn't lose inspiration, they lost their uncredited co-writer.

If a 13-year-old girl is “old enough to know what she was doing,” then the 25-year-old man who touched her is old enough to rot in prison. Your “boys will be boys” defense is just pedophile cosplay.

Patriarchy makes women responsible for preventing the very violence it fails to hold men accountable for.
xitter.cf/ZainabSana2622/status/…
Women are expected to prevent male violence, anticipate male violence, survive male violence, explain male violence, and then comfort men about male violence.

A system that depends on women sacrificing their freedom will always call their independence selfish.

Women don’t owe kids to anyone
Women don’t owe sex to anyone
Women don’t owe marriage to anyone
Women don’t owe pregnancy to anyone
Women don’t owe labour to anyone
Women don’t owe anything to anyone

Why are women taught a thousand ways to prevent violence while the systems meant to stop perpetrators keep failing them?xitter.cf/designmom/status/21097…
Women are the primary protectors of women and children. Men are the primary predators of women and children. Men rape across every country, culture, and religion. There is no place on earth that mothers don’t have to protect their children from men.
