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

Part of the easter uprising against the British in Ireland.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumann_na_mBan

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.

You leave my mother out of this

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago

Which one was she? Psychological?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 24 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That's a wild line of extrapolation.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 50 points 6 days ago (1 children)

wild lines of extrapolation imply a domesticated line of extrapolation

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Wild planes of extrapolation imply wild rotorcraft of extrapolation

[–] kureta@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

All those "x extrapolations" imply their dual "x interpolations".

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

And also the usual polations that are not superfluous.

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

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

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 13 points 6 days ago

Inorganic women. Hell yeah.

[–] FoolishObserver@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

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

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 5 points 6 days ago

Thanks, now I have to listen to it

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 6 points 6 days ago

Drone women? That makes my head hurt

[–] vordalack@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Would this also imply the existence of a nuclear or tactical Karen?

[–] vonxylofon@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I've definitely met my share of nuclear Karens.

[–] Coconut1233@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Most of them I can imagine, but I have not yet encountered chemical women

[–] psud@aussie.zone 5 points 5 days ago

Everyone is chemical

Something something bioidentical hormones

Eschatological women Tautological women Chronological women

Etc.

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

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

looks at this person's comment history, their life story bounces around enough you should not believe anything they say.

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Stupid American. There's no natives or Indians anywhere but the u.s right? Not like the entirety of the Americas is populated with native peoples, despite your best efforts to eradicate us. Damn you're seriously stupid, or racist, or both. Literally every country on this continent has us.

[–] eskimofry@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Inb4 People get sued for comparing women to apes...

[–] troglodytis@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

They are the same picture

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 90 points 1 week ago (2 children)

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

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 29 points 6 days ago

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

[–] blazeknave@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

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

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 10 points 6 days ago

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

Nuclear Woman

She-Hulk

[–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago (3 children)

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

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 11 points 6 days 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.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago

Gender theory is much more complex than I thought

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

What they decay into is a bit unclear.

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 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

A useful skill to learn in case you need assistance.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days 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 😄🥰
