Hardest part of writing is accepting that some people will not fucking get it & you just have to like cope with that because over-explaining it just makes it worse

The beauty of tumblr is that some people here think that cigarettes get you high and drinking once a week makes you an alcoholic, while others here started smoking at 13 and wouldn't even consider ketamine a drug because everyone does it. And both of them are on tumblr blogging about TV shows from 2005.

getting sooooo frustrated at the people saying sabrina carpenter’s album cover is “setting back feminism” like YOU are the conservative backlash you’re scared of! censoring a woman’s ART because it’s “male-centered” (there’s no man in the photo)!

personally my feminism includes people who enjoy kink and bdsm, my feminism includes sex workers. excluding the faction of people that includes dominatrix certainly doesn’t feel like a smart move!

but above all, this shit DOESNT MATTER! it’s album art! women are losing ACTUAL RIGHTS! sabrina carpenter is NOT your enemy! patriarchy/men are your enemy!!!

The way some people talk about women pandering to the 'male gaze' is like, wow, you couldn't possibly fathom a woman who likes being feminine for herself, because being feminine automatically means your doing it for men right? Right?

Like no sorry I don't think a female, with a majority female audience is automatically for the male gaze because she dresses... feminine

People on tiktok freaking out again what’s new. Sabrina Carpenter’s new album ‘Man’s Best Friend’ is apparently the pinnacle of misogyny. I truly hope that it’s 13 songs of raunchy, disgusting, lyrics about pet play. I hope that the people on tiktok explode when they hear it.

if you’re a woman and you hate other women and you hate women who like men and you hate women who like sex with men and you hate women who enjoy submissiveness with men and you hate women who find sexual pleasure in performing submissiveness, can you just give up the “male centered” thing and start saying the word slut again? Because I’m tired of the savior act

sick of everyone saying that sydney sweeney and sabrina carpenter are “setting feminism back” like can we have one thought in our brains. im glad sydney is profiting off stupid men idgaf if shes “objectifying herself” like thats what she does to make money and it doesnt affect u. and sabrina playing into the dog thing is obviously ironic and shes gonna subvert it probably considering the lead single is called manchild. the actions of a few women do not set feminism overall back if anything its taking advantage of the negative view of women for their own gain which is like. girlboss or whatever. and acting like all of these women’s actions are catered specifically towards men is what actually sets feminism back i fear. like wdym u analyze everything women do as “catering to the male gaze” like YOU are the one who is focusing on men here

“Sabrina Carpenter’s album cover is degrading and dangerous.”

This is slut shaming. You’re all so shamelessly sex negative that when you see a straight person having sex and talking about it you shit your collective jorts in rage.

No matter what, what is happening here is that a woman is expressing her sexuality and OTHER WOMEN are saying she’s “wAlKiNg BaCk FeMiNiSm” because of it. Jesus fucking Christ we’re so cooked. Jesus fucking Christ.

so dumb saying that sabrina carpenter is catering to men or whatever. haven’t you heard? men hate her

New writing rule: Checkov’s friend

If you introduce a named character with a relationship to a protagonist, their character arc must be resolved in a way that feels reasonable and satisfying

Which is to say: they can’t just dissappear when they’re no longer a convenient plot device

Listen i’m not a big Sabrina Carpenter fan, however to say the album cover is setting women back a hundred years is absolutely wild to me. Because what i’m getting from this whole stupid discourse is that if I’m too open with my sexuality then I’m anti-feminist. And you know what? I mean this is in the most disrespectful way, fuck off if you truly believe that.

God forbid I enjoy a man choking me as he rails me from behind. God forbid I enjoy the way he ties me up and blindfolds me. It’s like how dare I enjoy being manhandled. How dare I allow a man to have that much power over me in bed. SO FUCKING WHAT?! Just because some of you hate men doesn’t mean I have to.

I can still love men and be an advocate for women. I don’t have to hate men to be a feminist. Feminism is also about embracing your sexuality and being comfortable with it. So what Sabrina is kneeling in front of a man, getting her hair pulled. I don’t see the issue. Especially when Roe v. Wade was turned over. THAT set us back. Not a fucking album cover.
