- Feminists for Free Speech presents a new live stream series: Where Are All the Women? A question asked perpetually with regard to the gender identity debate and consequent attack on women's rights and free speech demands, "Where are all the women?!" We are, after all the ones losing our sex-based rights and sex-segregated spaces... Many want to know why "the women" have fallen silent?
They haven't, of course. "The women" are, in fact, everywhere, but silenced (rather than "silent"), censored, banned from social media, and without platforms to speak out.
We are here. We are long time feminists who have been banished into political homelessness. We have been speaking out for many years, but have been ignored. We are advocates for free speech, civil liberties, and bodily autonomy, and we will continue speaking out, no matter how much we are bullied, ignored, threatened, silenced, and shouted down.
This is our third stream in the series. Tune in on Friday, August 4th at 5PM PT/8PM ET and join the live chat with your comments and questions!
Join us in Austin on August 12th! getgroupibacku...

My grandfather was a B17 tail-gunner in ww2 and he passed away this week. RIP Corporal E.T. Flood and bless you for your service.
Fantastic conversation! Thank you all ❤
What was done to La Leche is a crime.
I thought that puberty was made unnecessarily difficult by a toxic society. I partly blamed the junior high and my narcissistic mother but I understood that the society at large was toxic. I was very astute for that age and era (the '70s). I had no Feminist mentor and had to spend a half century of trial and error to find my way out of the matrix. I avoided some traps, e.g. eating disorders and veganism, and had to find my way out of critical race theory. I never got mixed up in tra because I sensed something reactionary about the lbgtq which I couldn't pinpoint. It was Lesbians online who named it.
55:00: "They've intellecutalized themselves right out of something rational, right out of reality, right?" "It is like a new religion, very much like a new religion."
Perfect way of summing it up.
42:00 I love the bear analogy. Not only can females tell what a male is, but also females in nature are JUST AS VIOLENT as the male, only in different circumstances. Males tend to be violent at mating time, whereas females are violent at defending offspring.
Misandry isn’t appealing to most women outside of certain bubbles. To me, we are in this trans epidemic because of feminists.
Feminists need to accept some responsibility.
💯% 🎯And I don't see Leftwing/Liberal women/Feminists acknowledging that, taking responsibility and showing what redemptive steps they are taking to change course to not make such herd mentality mistakes for other human issues in the future. I am convinced women will still vote and actively support latest destructive popular social fads in the future too. (Not talking exceptions but bulk average majority of women led by the nose by establishment level women of power).
At around 1:25.00, when you've said "You can fetishize anything". That's about right.
Wish I could come to the event in Austin, it sounds awesome
37:00 things done in last resort, are never equivalent to these things being chosen
- a mastectomy to save a life from cancer ≠ TiF mastectomy
- a child up for adoption because its parents are dead ≠ creating a new human who'll be adopted
- a child with a mother who loses the father and needs daycare ≠ choosing to have government raise your kids
Epic
Wherever there exists men, due to men's common nature to dominate, there will always have to be the possibility for women to fight for the balance of our liberation and sex based protections, and that endeavour, to me, is feminism. I don't worry about what someone who thinks that it should speak to men's rights to sex think that it means.
31:30 Geez, why do us uncles always have to get thrown under the bus.
Is there a way to get notice way ahead of time for the LWS events? I want to come, but I need more lead time. Specifically a North Texas or Oklahoma event.
At 15:30, I can't say I agree with Isabella on this framing. Men are evolutionarily different from women, and whereas women are reduced by the fertility industry, I don't think men are. Male fertility is by evolution and definition uninvolved. My friend lost her husband two weeks after conception, tragically, and her daughter is growing up just fine because she lost her father and not her mother at that point. Males, with very very few exceptions in the animal kingdom, are only "seen" by evolution at the moment of conception. Women using men for conception is women "seeing" men as much as genetics sees them.
One might say this is the naturalistic fallacy, except there are plenty of men for whom this is the ideal reproductive strategy. I personally have been sought out throughout my life by men who merely want me to carry their baby, and distinctly do NOT want to partner with me. I think this is also why men get so turned on by lesbians - two women will raise your baby for you? Sweet! Perfect evolutionary strategy for men, where they get all the reward and none of the risk.
I think the only issue with sperm donation is the child paternity issue. If you can get a child knowledge of and access to their father, I think this is preferable but not necessary for the child. And in terms of the health of the pregnancy, I think it's best if the mother can "okay" the father genetically in person or by some other "animal" connection (eg, scent).
Wishing you all the best in Austin! X
This topic reminds me of a line from a movie. In the "magnificent 7" remake with Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke's character said "you can cut the ears off a mule, it doesn't make it a horse" .that would make a good t-shirt
I have a schedule conflict and can't come to the LWS in Austin. Can't be in 2 cities at once. I will be at the WDI convention in Sept. Still working on logistics.
I had to look up the cover story and found the photo and this description:
Mac writes that he knew he needed a penis to be himself, and finally having the procedure brought out intense emotion. “I could suddenly feel, in a way I could never have fathomed, that this was what being alive was,” he writes of the moment he woke up in a hospital bed following his surgery.
“I wrote this story partly because writing is how I process things - and there was a lot to process,” says Mac. “But I also wrote it to put something in the world that would reflect my experience, because no existing media does. When I called the other people mentioned in this story who’ve been through phalloplasty and told them the story was coming out next week, they all said some version of: Thank god.”
Wow, I've never seen the leg scar before. This is an advertisement for trauma and illness😢
Good discussion.
I've got to say, when you're talking about girls having a tougher time going through adolescence. I'd agree.
Thinking back, I had a great time. I mean I had to get into fist fights with other boys. But I didn't have acne. And I was pretty hot so I welcomed girls attention. So yeah, growing up male was kind of a breeze I guess.
I don't think having an easier or harder time thru adolescence has any connection to gender. It likely does have some connection to home life/parents.
Jordan Peterson said much the same thing to Helen Joyce, who agreed. My personal take on it is male attention was constant and at a fully developed 13 definitely unwanted. It was difficult to cope with heavy periods (which thankfully had become regular by age 12) groping hands, misogynist teachers and humiliatingly no sports bras much less in a G cup. That aside, I grew up in a strict religious but loving family with books but no tv or magazines, and I thought I was beautiful (and boys incredibly ignorant and immature) likely because there was no media telling me otherwise. There was athe Vietnam war and most of all I was glad only young men were called up, but then most lads would have been gung-ho and too stupid to realise their lives would change and not for the better.
@@catherinerobilliard7662 What point are you making about the Vietnam war?
@@catherinerobilliard7662Going to war, oh yeah, they would have no idea a war would negatively affect their lives, how stupid they were.
So what if a dude who was awarded "hardest hitter" on a men's rugby team decided to call himself a girl and went on to hit and injure women in the female rugby class?... insane. That seems like the arrogance of a man to me
I tried to reply to the comment about Austin but it was censored!
Lame!
@50:15 Why would any child be shown their mother's genitals? How is that even on the table? OTOH, I as I write this, I am reminded that even when things weren't as insane as they are now, it was always when among liberals that I hid my views and censored myself if those views weren't EXACTLY 100% mainstream.
It seems like the Transmen do it out of the most womanly motives (for social acceptance) and the trans woman do it out of the most manly motives (power and sexual titillation). Similarly, when on respective hormones the hormones encourage the most dysfunctional emotive states of both man and woman.
Or maybe decades of radical feminist garbage telling men and boys that they are ALL scum and a danger to women and girls.
I think the solution to all of our various feminist bones that we are gnawing on is CLASS SOLIDARITY. To move our focus towards the healthy matriarchy we choose to build rather than waste more time trying to tear down the patriarchy that is already cracking on its own. Especially at this moment in time, we have access, as women, to more resources than ever before. We have the internet for crowdsourcing and for swapping stories in order to gain intel, and we have economic equality in most major ways. It is time for women to look at only women as their tribe. Women are who we listen to. Women are who we watch. Women are who we emulate. Women are who we build community with. Women are who we buy from.
It wasn't until about 6 months ago that I was out in public and I looked around in awe at the idea that every woman surrounding me had value and the men were just background. I am a lifelong feminist and the fact that this had never fully sunk in, that women were our only hope for humanity, is mind boggling. Now my sisters take precedence (in conversation, in time, in relationship) and my life has grown exponentially more full in the last 6 month.
Framing it as the class warfare that it really is; we are done working for free, being slaves. Men better relinquish power or their bloodlines are going to start disappearing.
Nice, but what will you do if men begin to think the same way? Among men today is ZERO of what you call "class solidarity" which makes all men`s rights movements blatantly failing. Imagine that would change.
The women I grew up with (mother and older sister) were violent and abusive, me and my younger brother lived with our dad until he passed away when I was 20. Without him, I probably wouldn't have survived.
This men vs. women mindset doesn't work for me as each man and woman can share life experiences, they help each other, some women have male role models, some men have female role models.
Most women don't intend on dying alone.
I wonder if you're knowingly talking crazy or actually trying to be serious? Sorry, what exactly is your suggestion? You're existence is so sheltered from the demands of bare nature it probably hasn't even occurred to you to consider the fact that the infrastructure necessary to maintain everything we (and clearly you) take for granted requires a whole lot of continual labor... the essential sort of labor, the sort of labor that is performed almost exclusively by men. "Build community with" is a funny little expression, for your part I understand you mean it in an immaterial/relational sense, which is all well and good but at some point your lady group is probably gonna need someone to maintain your actual material community... at which point I have no doubt some poor bastard man will be at your beck and call eager to provide it.
@@valentapaxmansame. My dad saved my life and protected me from my mother. I grew up to be a competent, capable woman and have competent, capable men everywhere in my life.
why am I blocked from commenting on your channel?
