Bigots referring to "Normal" women implies the existence of Fire/Psychic/Dark/Null, etc type women.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

I like my women like I like my pokemon dragon/dark.

Side note, what is a PC word for "straight" that isn't overly academic for a child?

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 7 points 11 months ago

Straight. Or non-gay, cis, heterosexual? It's only clinical if you treat it that way...

I take great pride in knowing my great grandmother was one.

Part of the easter uprising against the British in Ireland.

Do not underestimate the ferocity of a woman in times of war. (Or ever)

On the day of the Rising, Cumann na mBan members, including Winifred Carney, who arrived armed with both a Webley revolver and a typewriter, entered the General Post Office on O'Connell Street in Dublin with their male counterparts. By nightfall, women insurgents were established in all the major rebel strongholds throughout the city except Boland's Mill and the South Dublin Union held by Éamon de Valera and Eamonn Ceannt.

Nuclear Woman

She-Hulk

[–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I wonder what nuclear women decay into, also does their gender radiation change the gender of people around them?

[–] leisesprecher@feddit.org 10 points 11 months ago

No, but it causes alpha particles to be emitted.

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Even after they decay a few times, they're still nuclear women. They can also emit alpha women, which are fairly small but still nuclear women, betas, which are not fully women, and gammas, which are also not women, but eventually interact with other nuclear women.

Gender theory is much more complex than I thought

That's a wild line of extrapolation.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 33 points 11 months ago (1 children)

wild lines of extrapolation imply a domesticated line of extrapolation

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 7 points 11 months ago (3 children)

And wild curves of extrapolation, and wild planes of extrapolation, and wild queues of extrapolation, and...

Can confirm, my partner is a psychological woman.

...by which I mean that she has a master's degree in psychology, not that she's combative 😄

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

A useful skill to learn in case you need assistance.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Thanks, but she's really the most empathetic, perceptive, and supportive person I've ever met and she's not here to coerce me into saying so 😄🥰

[–] Alwaysnownevernotme@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Women of mass destruction.

[–] VaalaVasaVarde@sopuli.xyz 4 points 11 months ago

Better give them up now before someone invades.

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Right, as we all know, nuclear women are a staple of the nuclear family

[–] FoolishObserver@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Lights out! Guerrilla Women! Turn that shit up!!

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 months ago

Thanks, now I have to listen to it

[–] RandomStickman@fedia.io 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Then call me M1A1 Abrams because I'm protected against all CBRN, conventional, and guerrilla threats

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (5 children)

But vulnerable to psychological attacks?

I said I don't want to talk about it!

Your spirit was willing but your flesh was spongy and bruised, I take it

There are plenty of gorilla women on Fur Affinity.

Being a guerrilla woman is tough. My friend's mom told us stories about when she used to be a fighter. Her and her husband joined the Communist guerillas in Central America and were living in the jungle for a few years. Decades later she still has health issues from the contaminated water they were drinking most of the time. What's worse is she told us how women were treated like objects in the guerilla army. Didn't matter if you were married, if the commander or officers wanted you that night, it was an order, didn't matter what you or your husband thought of it, they were told it was their duty to let it happen
