PYNK Vaginas hit

[0phelia]

"We've got the pink"
"Pink is the truth you can't hide"

This is a really funny video and contains an abundance of terrible stereotypes (deliberately) but is quite "TERFy".
Quite proud.

It's already getting terrible criticism from certain activists but it looks like a counter-backlash to the backlash of the backlash from certian people saying "not all women have pink vaginas" and stop talking about vaginas etc... They're actually wearing vaginas lol.

Tessa Thompson (in the video) ensures that she points out that "To all the black girls that need a monologue that don’t have Vaginas, I’m listening,"

In a tweet of her own, Janelle chimed in to back Tessa up, saying that the video is a celebration of every black girl everywhere.

"Thank you to the incomparable & brilliant @TessaThompson_x for helping celebrate US (no matter if you have a vagina or not) all around the world !

Because we can only celebrate vaginas with men's permission and approval, and only if we acknowledge that they are NOTHING to do with being a woman.

I want to believe this is about women celebrating themselves unapologetically. But as always, it's about the penis eventually.

Yes the same dumb story about woman not having vaginas is in the Guardian today. Give it a rest people, you sound a bit silly with this mangina stuff!

Our is it Mulva?

Ah, never saw that. I expect they've been carefully managed to say that for their image and whatnot, but the video and content still gets a certain message across that is proudly vagina-centric.

Trousers FFS they had one of those last week!

Mangina / Mulva suits me if were talking about surgically constructed neovaginas...
Which btw are definitely NOT pink.

Mulva! 😂

The video features several women not wearing the vagina trousers to represent 'the women who don't have vaginas' and I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, but there is imagery of a pink baseball bat between someones legs and a pink penis shaped punch bag.

And with Janelle Monaes comments as well, it does just seem to have turned into a 'men can be women too' message. And she still got a bit of shit about the video being transphobic.

Women, especially lesbian women, aren't allowed anything of their own, especially not their vaginas.

I'm a bit confused . They're swanning about literally covered in vaginas, yet issue a press release that the song celebrates all women, not just those with vaginas??
Why do you think this is a good thing?? Terfy my arse

I didn't see the press release

Just thought it was funny, and I really read it as a backlash against the whole "stop talking about pink vaginas" brigade.

The video seems to tell a different story to the press release...

There was an article on it in The Pool, which is very nearly brilliant.

Pink Pussy Pants A Glorious Vision

It loses its nerve at 'I know a transwoman is a woman' which kind of goes against the empowering female-centric message of the piece. It must be exhausting having to be relentlessly woke.

Yes I read that Pool article and my heart sank at that line. I feel like The Pool 'get it' but they really don't want to come across as TERFy so they pay a bit of lip service the the 'trans women are women' line to keep that contingent happy. But the editors don't really believe it (does anyone?)

The Pool have massively dialled down on their pro trans articles recently.

I guess the Boden Vulva Mac wouldn't have created quite the same stir
