You know what, I'm going to say it at the risk of sounding homophobic. But, I have had some close gay male friends in the past and they have been some of the worst, meanest, most misogynistic people in my life. A couple of them even made comments on my body, my boobs, and one of them actually grabbed my boobs and said "Hmm, not bad!" He also tried to force me to kiss his friend who liked me, like literally pushed my face towards him. And when I got angry they both acted like I was being unreasonable and refused to talk to me. What the fuck. It doesn't matter if they're gay or straight, men are assholes and I haven't got time to fight for their causes when they think they can get away with treating women (easy targets) like shit.

I'm sorry

I'm sorry I have been MIA from tumblr for a while (since BEFORE yahoo took over! that's ages! lol).

I have been reading though, every day. My favourite blogs, mostly. Vegetablearian. Porcupunx. And a few others.

Thanks for all your dedication ladies. It is hard work. It takes up a lot of time. And I don't think I have the same stamina as you. But I will stay and read, and maybe post from time to time.

xoxo

If one values women as human beings, one will not turn one’s back on the women who are being hurt today and the women who will be hurt tomorrow.

WHEN YOU EQUATE THE TREATMENT OF ANIMALS TO SLAVERY, GENOCIDE & THE HOLOCAUST, YOU ARE DOING EXACTLY WHAT CAUSED SLAVERY, GENOCIDE & THE HOLOCAUST; EQUATING PEOPLE OF COLOR TO ANIMALS.

dudes who equate feminism with equality with being allowed to punch ladies are so fucking scary. like, how badly do you want to punch girls, dude? how is that the first and most important part of equality for you?! WHY DO YOU WANT TO HIT LADIES SO BAD?! how often...

psa: feminazi is a fucking disgusting term that compares fighting for women’s rights to genocide. 

it was coined by rush limbaugh (that alone should be enough to make you stay far far away from it)

it is a racist term, and it is disrespectful to marginalized groups who suffered in nazi germany (so jews, rroma, lgbt folks, people with disabilities, etc.)

do not use it. 

if you disagree with feminists: do not use it

if you are a feminist: do not reclaim it

thank you

I am so bored of dystopian novels with ~revolutionary acts of heterosexuality~. 1984, The Handmaid’s Tale, you name it… To me, they’re all just the highbrow equivalent of the worn-out-even-before-it-was-written YA fiction where ~love between a man and a woman is forbidden~.

The patriarchy told me the only time I’m allowed to talk about enjoying sex is during sex. But if I’m not enjoying it, I should still pretend I am. (submitted by polytelis)
