To any of the male witches trying to wade through this new wave of “no-men” witchcraft, all I have to say is this;

– You are still a witch, their opinion won’t suddenly kick you out of the club

– Their opinion is based on a fabricated, racist history maintained by new age writing and poor academic practice

– Wicca (distinct from witchcraft but still related) was started officially by a man ( Gardner) so their claim literally falls apart at the 50’s for Wiccan witches

– it’s fair that women want to avoid the discrimination and prejudice they experience from men everyday, so ride it out whilst being respectful of why some women are pushing men away

At the end of the day, no witch on tumblr is in the position to tell you who you are or what you can do

What a great day to remember men can’t be witches and they can get their own fucking terms and to stop stealing ours

Look at this definitions 😂 when you are argue with this it implies not just that men can’t be witches, but also that all are riding brooms, are evil and are old ugly hags!

Sounds like someone needs a Snickers

What a thoughtful reaction. I’m impressed!

“Damn, how dare she not get angry and fall for my trap! Now how else am I going to spread my hatred of women while still seeming progressive?”

Oh shit you got me! 😱

Wonderful! Males can be witches y’all. End of the discussion.

Of course we can be witches! And just because such a disgusting TERF tries to through us under the bus won’t change that I’m male witch!

Do we have to go over the historical evidence of male witches, not to mention that you practically cannot practice any form of contemporary witchcraft that hasn’t had some influence from male witches.

Firstly, many times, certain regions had mostly men prosecuted for witchcraft. In Iceland, 92% of the accused witches were men. In Estonia, 60% of the accused were men, many whom were actual sorcerers and healers. 

In the witch trials of Moscow, Russia, two-thirds of those accused were male.

In one case of the witch Panics, in Mora Sweden, 

fifteen boys over the age of 16 were executed for witchcraft. 

Insurrectionalist witch of sixteen century Scotland, Isobel Gowdie, among her genuine claims of witchcraft, claimed to have male members of her coven and to have had sexual intercourse with them on a number of occasions. 

We have George Pickingill of Essex who was a genuine cunning man and had a reputation as a powerful witch.

Other cunningfolk and witches to mention are the Baltic wolf wizards, the Benendanti of Italy, the Werewolf of Normandy, John Traizore of East Agelica, William Wycherley, Aberdeenshire cunning man Andro Man, William Barckseale, The Cornish Pellar, and so fourth. The Bogomilic witch of the Baltic, the Trolldomr of Sweden, and many more. The male Chovhai of my people?

Then comes contemporary tradition, to witch almost all is influenced by Gerard Gardner (Gardnerian witchcraft), Alex Sander (Alexandrian Wicca), Robert Cochrane (Clan of Tubal-Cain), and Victor Henry Anderson (Feri). Ronald White and George Stadards Regency? The 1864 current? The DeSayvok covine? 

What tradition could you claim that hasn’t been influenced by these figures? What practice doesn’t draw from these men, or the women who had their husbands act with them

Then finally, the unspoken men, queer, trans women and men of the last several centuries? The slaughtered men and boys at the hands of authorities? The genuine queer witches prosecuted by such vile orthodoxy?

In short, there has never been a time when witch has not included men, not included queer and trans bodies, not been defined so tightly as by the tumblr terf, so powerless that all they can do is protest as they try to claim a space that was never exclusively theirs to begin with. What will you do, bark a complaint?

I for one, and my covine, will continue as we do open to queer and trans folk, faggots and breeders, men and women and androgynous, irregardless of the whining of some weak-ass internet feminist that has a bone to pick with that which is “Other”, the very crux of witchcraft as the means to the oppressed and outsider, an irony for certain.

Know the vulture, for he is your destiny all the same as the rest of us, fair and foul.

How can people deny the validity of male witches when men HAVE LITERALLY BEEN WITCHES FOREVER

I’m so glad that I haven’t seen any of this ‘men can’t be witches’ bs come up on my dash directly (i.e. i don’t follow any trash people) 

I don’t know how anyone could think that /anyone/ can’t be a witch. The only requirement for being a witch is identifying as one and doing magic shit. 

All witches, and also non-witches, are welcome on my blog, regardless of gender, sex, identity, race, religion, colour or any other aspect of yourself.

There have always been male witches, there will always be male witches. Fuck off with this already @curiouslesbianseperation . I’ve seen too much anti male witch stuff (all from terfs too btw, who are gross to begin with) lately and honest to gods I’m loosing my patience -___-
