seeing a lot of posts condemning “pussy grabs back” as cissexist and although i would agree that it is not the perfect “women’s march” slogan by any means i would urge you all to keep in mind that it is a direct response to trump’s violent statement and therefore makes sense as a phrase of political retaliation …..like obviously there should be many other myriad phrases and slogans for protesting that aren’t as exclusionary but i don’t think we should be shaming those who wielded “pussy grabs back” signs today since those signs are in active & necessary conversation with sexually violent remarks made by our president and the people wielding those signs are absolutely at liberty to respond directly in that way. anyways perhaps try to have some nuance in your thought today folks

yes yes yes. we need to remember: not all women have vaginas, and not all people who have vaginas are women, but all vaginas are a probable site of violence, and as such they have a place in the conversation. 

This. Also keep in mind that reproductive rights was also a big issue, which might have caused people to carry signs with uteruses/vaginas, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

There’s nothing inherently transphobic about women talking about their own genitalia and reproductive rights, and it’s possible to talk about and fight transphobia without condemning people for fighting for their own rights.
