PSA

It’s 20-fucking-18 and people here act like we don’t have non-TERF terms for that noxious “compulsory heterosexuality”, often referred as “comp het”.

Non-TERF alternatives that have existed for years and are infinitely superior to that “comp het” nonsense:

  • Heterosexism
  • Heteronormativity
  • (Cis) Heteropatriarchy

Seriously, there’s no excuse for using terminology coined by TERFs and SWERFs, which harm trans women and people, bi folks, sex workers, and is even weaponised against ace and aro demographics. What’s more is that “comp het” easily disregards how the intersections of race and colourism play into a white supremacist cisheteropatriarchy, and the havoc this reaps towards queer and non-queer people of colour.

Don’t let those sad radfem fucks fool you into thinking their creations are necessary to discuss and fight bigotry and marginalisation. They’re hypocrites that are intentionally clouding the conversation. Stop using “comp het”.

i support girls anger. i support girls who yell. i support girls who get called bitches and cunts at parties because they’ll swear at guys who won’t leave them alone. i support girls who don’t believe in second chances and cut off people who hurt them. i support girls who say no the first time and flip you off if you ask them again. i support girls who will never allow themselves to be pushovers and constantly get shit for it. you’re fucking incredible.

why do people always pull hip-hop and rap as a misogynist area of music? yes, many rappers are misogynistic, but it’s not the only genre. let’s talk about country music, about the preacher’s daughter trope, the cutoff jeans, the get-her-drunk mentality; let’s talk about pop music, about the drugs and the clubs and the possessive “love songs”; let’s talk about alternative music, about “she’s not like other girls” and the manic pixie dream girl; let’s talk about classical music, about the exclusion of women now and in history. 

let’s talk about how everyone’s first reaction is to villainize a primarily black genre before criticizing literally anyone else.
