Really accurate depiction of Canada: a politician brags about how clean the drinking water in Ottawa is while the water in Attawapiskat isn’t even safe to bathe in.

This just happened to me earlier today and I'm... A real living breathing native woman. They seriously can't fathom that we don't agree with them so they assume we aren't real.

woman hating, andrea dworkin
[ID: black text in a white background that reads “Though the fairy-tale father marries the evil woman in the first place, has no emotional connection with his child, does not interact in any meaningful way with her, abandons her and worse does not notice when she is dead and gone, he is a figure of male good. He is the patriarch, and as such he is beyond moral law and human decency. The roles available to women and men are clearly articulated in fairy tales. The characters of each are vividly described, and so are the modes of relationship possible between them. We see that powerful women are bad, and that good women are inert. We see that men are always good, no matter what they do, or do not do.” end ID]
