Let’s take a trip down memory lane with this short history of feminism, helpfully prepared for us by mountainmansOG in the Men’s Rights subreddit.
I learn new things about feminism every day! Thanks, Men’s Rights subreddit!

RE: Kittehserf
It truly is.
RE: Argenti
It’s a point of minor pride with me that almost every major character I’ve ever written and given a damn about has fanart of them. I feel very lucky!
David, I will always consider you the most effeminate man on the internet.
On the topic of MRAs seeming to think that women should have simply been happy to get the vote and stopped campaigning for our right there, that kinda just makes me laugh. They expected us to get the right to vote and then… what? NOT use it to vote in ways that improve our lives? NOT become political? They think women should have the right to vote, but not use it?
I hadn’t read that before LBT. Very interesting. I’d never heard the term soulbound before either… Do you have any further reading on that term? (The concept sounds suspiciously familiar to me… as in, that’s pretty much how I’ve lived my artistic life the last decade+..)
May I ask, what’s the T stand for?
princessunnyburn, they think women should have the right to vote in only the most theoretically superficial way. So yes, exactly that women should have the right to vote (because that sounds progressive! and so gentlemenly of them to allow it!) but not actual utilize it to fix major societal problems because that interferes with their privilege.
RE: Muhammad
David can’t be the most effeminate man on the Internet! I’m the most effeminate man on the Internet! You take that back right now before I glitterbomb you.
RE: SittieKitty
Here ya go!
The T is because we’re mostly known on the web as Loony-Brain or Baaing_Tree, though the latter is slowly getting fazed out. Thus, LBT. It was originally intended to be our super-stealthy invisible name, but I’m shitty with closets.
Oh David, you have been called womanly. How must that hurt, for a feminist man!
David, I will always consider you the most effeminate man on the internet.
Oh NOES… someone Dave doesn’t know thinks gender-policing is a terrible insult, however will Dave survive?
Muhammed, was that meant to be an insult or a compliment? If you meant it as an insult, you’re basically saying that characteristics coded feminine/female are bad. Is that what you mean?
Hey, guess what? My cat moved in with me today! Finally, I can pet my cat and be on the internet at the same time!
Proof from my mac camera: HEEEEEERRRRRREEEEE’S NIKO!
Very awesome, thanks LBT. I’ve always just called him my muse and stopped sharing with others that I had two different reactions (mine and his) to things because people started looking at me funny. Never knew other people had that experience too… v cool.
Beautiful Amnesia! I’ve got a soft spot for orange kitties and long haired cats.
@Amnesia – Beauuuutifulllllll kitty! I love cats with longer faces and ears. Yay for Niko being home!
@LBT – totally different meaning but I really like the term soulbound. Sort of applicable here, y’know? 🙂
RE: Kittehserf and SittieKitty
It’s actually ‘soulbond,’ usually. But yeah, it’s not uncommon, I think. My introduction to plurality was through the SB community, actually, even though we don’t really fit anymore.
Ha – Louis just said “soulwed,” even better.
Whoops, I must have misread it on your page! 😛
Oops, I plead typos because I’ve been up nearly 36 hrs…
Wait, he’s the most effeminate man on the net? Are their no drag queens online? Cuz the vast majority ID as men and pull of some very feminine shows…
This is me taking a break from giving the data spreadsheet useful headers. Cuz my everything hurts from sitting in that position.
LBT — you should be proud! Please tell me Biff’s fanart has that whiff of “now get lost”.
If only my stepson were on the net …
SittieKitty, sounds like a fair reason to me!
Yep. Insomnia, you don’t choose it, it chooses you, and then keeps you all night up just to laugh at you. o/
Too bad that’s not an insult.
XD I fucking adore you folks
“I’ll admit my research into feminism is woefully incomplete…”
No shit. There were “radfems” before WW II? Hmm. Wow. Really?
Only a woman or a mangina would let a total lack of information, skill, experience, or talent interfere with their ability to tell others how to do things they don’t know how to do themselves.
Oh, shit! They’re on to us! I guess I’ll have to tell my lady friends that our plans for world domination are ruined. At least our plans for a tea party on hard chairs with bon-bons and scented candles are still on!
