media: THIS CELEBRITY RUINED HER CAREER
me: how
media: by getting old and what we consider ugly
me: oh yeah, because being a nazi, a pedophile, or a rapist isn't going to end a career in hollywood
me: my bad, i forgot.

the real quote... doesn't actually make it all that better? "never find ones that are ready" so basically no black women were ever ready before sasheer zamata? like what. that's a sad excuse, kenan.

Young girls really are pressured now more than ever to be seen as beautiful and sexy and perfect like IG models and whatever the fuck…..like that’s why you see “me at 14 vs 14 year old girls today” posts……….we didn’t have this constant stream of content like they do…..content telling us to be perfect and to have perfect clothes and sharp eyeliner wings that look photoshopped and shit like that….I mean it’s always been there but not like this…and while I think girls should be able to dress however they want and do whatever they want…..you have to take into consideration the fact that this all stems from a toxic culture where women have to be perfect and beautiful…now at younger and younger ages….and it’s really gross…and the media continues to sexualize and like…make young girls seem older and more appealing than they actually are idk the whole thing makes me so uncomfortable and it’s only going to get worse :/

before you reblog emma stone’s gross, woody allen-supporting, white feminist ass comment about “greta gerwig and 4 male directors”, remember that only 5 black men in history have been nominated for the award - Jordan Peele being one of those five - and none have won and ignoring that to instead push ahead a white woman is mouldy and racist. we as white women need to understand that there’s nothing feminist about putting ourselves above PoC. ever.

male writers writing male characters: This Bruce Killshot. He has over 10000 confirmed kills and is the top leading spy in the Super Hard To Get In Spy Organization Of The World. He is a master of every martial art and can use virtually any weapon with ease. He’s not only a Real Gruff Man but a Ladies man who smokes cigars while Having Sex With Beautiful Women but he never gets attached. He’s a hard Whiskey Drinking Man who once killed an elephant with a toothpick and bottle of glue.
Men: this is so realistic wow such a complex character….
A woman: This is Angela she’s the chosen one of this story and has a natural knack for magic and can-
men: this fucking self insert mary sue this is fucking trash are you kidding me

Hugh Hefner was a giant in publishing, journalism, free speech and civil rights. He was a true original and very progressive, and decades ahead of the rest of the U.S. He always hired African Americans at a competitive and fair wage. Hef insisted on interracial casting of his TV show, even when Southern stations threatened to boycott. Hef was the first.
Hefner long before he became sort of a doddering caricature was a STRONG voice for Civil rights and free speech issues. RIP Hugh.
