I wonder how all the bitches who said FGM is a part of different cultures “we need to respect” and “fighting it is white saviorism” feel now that dark romance authors are eroticizing it in their books. I hate you bitches for even urging WoC to read it.
I honestly don’t know who I hate more. White female authors who make the MmC conduct FGM on the FMC in their dark romance books or Brown female authors who claim protesting FGM is “white feminism” and downplay its horror. Either way, they can rot in hell.

I feel like using “culture” to justify abuse is so disgusting and outdated. I hate when people do this.

I do agree. It’s manipulative specially towards girls of color to make them tolerate abuse. When you defend abuse in one culture, you ultimately downplay it across all cultures. What happened with “against white feminism” shows that. That’s why we ended up with breaking Rosalind.

I unfortunately work in a field which defends a lot of abuse in other countries as ‘culture’ (abuse of animals in agriculture and using women as free manual labor in farming) I don’t understand why people use culture as a shield against criticism.
