Radical Feminism Quotes

“Anti-pornography (or radical) feminists will consider me a heretic-fit only for burning. Or, to put it in more politically correct terms, I am a woman who is so psychologically damaged by patriarchy that I have fallen in love with my own oppression. My arguments will be dismissed. In other words, if I enjoy pornography, it is not because I am a unique human being with different preferences. It is because I am psychologically ill.”

“This is the second way in which women in the industry are said to be victims of violence. They are said to be so brainwashed by white male culture that they cannot render consent. Thus, they are de facto coerced. Consider how arrogant this statement is. Although women in pornography appear to be willing, anti-porn feminists see through this charade [...] If a woman enjoys performing sex acts in front of a camera, it is not because she is a unique human being who reasons and reacts from a different background or personality. No. It is because she is psychologically damaged and no longer responsible for her actions. She must, in effect, become a political ward of radical feminists, who will make the correct choices for her.”

“Generally, once men have said that they are feminists, they feel free to behave in whatever scummy manner they see fit towards women. The reason I loathe virtue-signalling so much is not because I'm against people bigging themselves up [...] but because boasting only makes sense when it's about something you do well. People who do nothing worth talking about will invariably boast about the way they are; their virtue-signalling is not a prelude to virtue but rather a substitute for it. In fact in can encourage them to behave even worse than they would otherwise; one thinks of those men working for charities who will happily head into a disaster zone and make whores of the poverty stricken female population.”

“Wokeness is King Midas in reverse, tarnishing any noble cause it touches, but on no body of struggle has is left as many filthy finger marks in inappropriate places as on feminism. With smoke and mirrors and sleight of hand worthy of a wicked misogynist magician, it has midwifed a monstrous creature, a fauxminism which is centred solely around the stations of the hallowed penis.”

“Whenever the rights of women clash with the rights of others, those in power seem extraordinarily keen on letting the side who aren't women win - and their attitudes seem creepily in accord with those of the woke bros. For example, the British police force - PC Plod has been born again as PC PC - seem far more interested in bothering people for online "misgendering" than they do investigating threats by blokes in brassieres to rape TERFs.”

“I sometimes wonder if we can truthfully call sex offenders fully human; of course they are biologically, but when ones own sexual satisfaction has become the governing principle to the extent that other people are only meat-puppets which act as objects to facilitate it, surely they lose that intangible yet recognisable quality we call "humanity" - the stranger who runs towards danger to help someone they have never met or who queues up in the rain to give a vital part of their body to some poor soul lacking a vital part.”

“I can't help but think of a particularly vicious parody of Shakespeare's Seven Ages of Man. First, she is an aborted female foetus, then a cyber bullied schoolgirl, then a raped and trafficked victim of a grooming gang, then a adjudged predatory Lolita responsible for her own molestation by some dirty old man. And that's just before she's old enough to vote. In young adult life, at the height of her beauty, she will groped, grabbed and molested in the street as she goes about her daily business, Seeking refuge from this, she may put herself under the protection of one man through marriage or cohabitation. If he doesn't kill her, she will lose her beauty and become the despised battle axe butt of a million mother in law jokes until she will be an unwanted older woman dying for a drink of water on an NHS hospital ward. Considering that life under the patriarchy can be such a slog, it's a feat of evil genius and the throat-choking cherry on the cake that the 50 Shades of Grey franchise managed to beautify male bullying of women and sell it back to them in their millions as exciting erotica.”

“What pornography has done is to make life far harder for those women in the front line of sexual servitude in that men now expect prostitutes - not just *civilian* women - to act like porn stars. The repulsive reviews of punters on various online forums bear this out as women are rebuked most often for "staying still" and "looking sad" rather than pretending to enjoy being penetrated by strangers as porn performers do.”

“In the age of cosplay, being a women has been reduced to the ultimate white male privilege; like Buffalo Bill from the Silence of the Lambs, a certain sort of man believes that he can construct a Woman Suit from words and rob us of the privileges which he believes we have. They are not actually murdering us in order to fashion their outfits, but they are attempting to remove our freedoms piece by piece. And they are leaving the bloodied body parts of those too young to understand what their feelings mean as their calling card.”

“There is a lost-girl quality in the nude feminists of Instagram; a topsy-turvy land where women show men their disapproval of manmade rules by delivering up exactly what men want from them. Women have spent decades protesting about wanting to be seen as more than bodies by men - and now the trend is to literally make tits of themselves in a bid to prove that they're independent women.”

“By championing racial diversity the Woke ruling class has happened upon a smart way of swerving the far greater injustice which exists in this country - the class system, which wastes more lives than any other form of oppression ever invented. So you'll hear a beautiful Bajan accent reading the BBC news - but never a pleb Brummie. Despite those expensive educations, the Woke ruling class don't understand what the uneducated UnWoke working class ask of them, simply because they talk differently; to be dismissed as a CHAV, gammon or Karen, in a milieu which would rather cut out its tongue than dehumanise any other group so, and thus have 99.9% of all life opportunities stifled at birth.”

“When I see the Woke media supplicating over minorities for their own narcissistic and performative ends, I see the nihilism of white riots to match the black ones. Because the trouble with identity politics is that you make being white an identity too. And if you split yourself off from others of your class because of their colour, dismissing their lived experience as privilege, blaming them for things they haven't done, eventually those people will say "Ok you win. I'll talk to, live among, and vote only with my kind".”

“Has anyone noticed that one of the main actions which women appear to play in Woke's Rich Tapestry is ceaseless apologising? Saying sorry for their TERF words, their "cis privilege", their sheer taking up of space in a world where cocks in frocks demand access all areas? It's a wonder we ever got the vote - imagine the Suffragettes today going around apologising to race horses for being insufficiently sensitive to their shared cultural oppression.”

“The adjectives and derivatives based on woman's distinctions are alien and derogatory when applied to human affairs; "effeminate"--too female, connotes contempt, but has no masculine analogue; whereas "emasculate"--not enough male, is a term of reproach, and has no feminine analogue. 'Virile'--manly, we oppose to 'puerile'--childish, and the very world 'virtue' is derived from 'vir'--a man.”

“There should be no necessary contradiction between recognizing the harms women suffer from male dominance as well as their courage and resourcefulness in dealing with them. Otherwise feminist critique might have to be abandoned altogether on the grounds that it is insulting to women.”

“Women and girls cannot access full humanity and the rights and opportunities of full human status while the idea that there are personality traits and appearance norms that are naturally and essentially associated with girls and women still has social currency and serves to control and limit their lives.”

“Woman-identification is a source of energy, a potential springhead of female power, violently curtailed and wasted under the institution of heterosexuality. The denial of reality and visibility to women’s passion for women, women’s choice of women as allies, life companions, and community; the forcing of such relationships into dissimulation and their disintegration under intense pressure, have meant an incalculable loss to the power of all women to change the social relations of the sexes to liberate ourselves and each other. The lie of compulsory female heterosexuality today admits not just feminist scholarship, but every profession, every reference work, every curriculum, every organizing attempt, every relationship or conversation over which it hovers. It creates, specifically, a profound falseness, hypocrisy, and hysteria in the heterosexual dialogue, for every heterosexual relationship is lived in the queasy strobe-light of that lie. However we choose to identify ourselves, however we find ourselves labeled, it flickers across and distorts our lives.”

“A commitment to disrupting the state's violence when and where we see it takes feminism outside of the realm of words and theories and makes it a living, breathing set of principles. It reminds us that where we can make interventions, we should and that only work that seeks to shake and unsettle the very foundations of the sexist state is feminist work.”

“At the demonstration of sixty feminists against the Miss America Pageant in 1968, when the women filled a trash can with bras, girdles, curlers and spike-heeled shoes, the bra-burning myth was launched by the media and, in spite of its inaccuracy and spiteful intent, put radical feminism on the map.”

“I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.”

“In far too many families with young children, both parents are working, when, if they really took an honest look at the budget, they might find they don't both need to. ... What happened in America so that mothers and fathers who leave their children in the care of someone else - or worse yet, home alone after school between three and six in the afternoon - find themselves more affirmed by society? Here, we can thank the influence of radical feminism.”

“Radical feminism is the most destructive and fanatical movement to come down to us from the Sixties. This is a revolutionary, not a reformist, movement, and it is meeting with considerable success. Totalitarian in spirit, it is deeply antagonistic to traditional Western culture and proposes the complete restructuring of society, morality, and human nature.”

“Radical feminist theorists do not seek to make gender a bit more flexible, but to eliminate it. They are gender abolitionists, and understand gender to provide the framework and rationale for male dominance. In the radical feminist approach, masculinity is the behaviour of the male ruling class and femininity is the behaviour of the subordinate class of women. Thus gender can have no place in the egalitarian future that feminism aims to create.”
