Radical CUNTS

Radical College Undergraduates Not Tolerating Sexism is a Columbia/Barnard student group that aims to fight sexist oppression from an intersectional perspective. This means that we understand that issues of gender cannot be understood without an analysis of the way gender intersects with race, class, sexuality, religion, and all other forms of identity. Our aim is to provide a space in which we can discuss these issues and mobilize around them.

We are officially affiliated with the IRC (Intercultural Resource Center), which is run under the umbrella of the OMA (Office of Multicultural Affairs).

Femme invisibility is a lesbian phenomenon in which a feminine-looking lesbian has difficulties in convincing the dyke world at large that she’s gay, or being seen by other lesbians at all.

This is applicable to everyone: you want to grow out your bush and never shave for the rest of your life? That’s okay. You want to wax or sugar it all off so you’re as smooth as silk down there? That’s okay. You want to trim it, leave a strip, round it out, keep it low, thin it out, braid it, shave just your balls, shave just your pussy lips, keep it business in the front and party in the back? That’s okay too. Don’t let anyone tell you different. Don’t let anyone tell you you’re not feminine enough, or sexy enough if you choose to keep your bush. And don’t let anyone tell you you’re not radical enough, or queer enough if you choose to make it bare.

This might be the best quote I’ve ever seen.

i hate stuff like this with a passion because it completely ignores all societal factors and deeply misogynistic views that brainwash everyone into believing certain things - in this case, that people perceived as women should be hairless. it portrays these choices as completely equal, when they are anything but. when not every porn star is waxed to an inch of their life, when men don’t balk at the idea of eating (or even fucking!) hairy pussy, when 99.9999999% of society is telling you, from the day you are born, that feminine = hairless, THEN i will respect this quote.

When I don’t have almost every fucking internet feminist out there getting all up in my grill because I choose to trim my triangle and shave my ass hair, around my junk, and my legs and pits then I’ll stop needing to see quotes like this. Yup, I shave parts of my junk and my pits are hairless. There’s no possible way I could have chosen this for myself. Nope, must just be brainwashed. Silly me for thinking I understand my own choices. I thought I was just shaving because I like the texture of my leg skin and because I don’t like how some of my pubes catch in my underpants occasionally. Damn, I was wrong! I’m clearly only doing it because porn.

I fucking hate it when people say shit like the second commentary above. As if doing anything that traditionally fits a stereotype of femininity—makeup, shaving, stay at home mothers, etc.—means you’re brainlessly doing what patriarchy tells you to do. Fuck you. As long as I know I have a choice, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with me taking all the hair off my ladyspace.
