Men describing women’s appearances and bodies in literature is universally traumatic

pauline hanson winning at least one senate seat just really brings home how damaging it is when the media gives bigots airtime so that they can ride the wave of public outrage.  stop giving these people a platform, i don’t care if it’s to point out how ridiculous they are. if the media hadn’t spent the last two years pretending what pauline hanson had to say was relevant maybe she would still be the racist political bogeyman of the 90s and not the racist political bogeyman of 2016.

this week on "do not let them thrive"

• art men getting their mfa who dress just weird enough and are just soft enough in their masculinity to come off as sortta queer but who only sleep with skinny cis women and, beyond that, definitely use their softness as a ploy to draw women to them, AND, beyond that, definitely also sleep with a lot of women artists and quietly devalue their work whenever possible, writing it off as “about feminism” or “pretty good formally but not very conceptual”

the number of women who felt solidarity w this post makes me sad because i know these guys are Out There 

I like this post but implying they should diversify who they sleep with like that’s anything revolutionary like if he slept with trans people then it would be good and feminist bc sleeping with someone always equals supporting them and not being violent aainst them which isn’t true

I’m the worst babysitter ever bc ur child could be On Fire and I wouldn’t even know cos I’m sitting here drawing

Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you?

no other person on this planet was made for you, they were made for themselves. love is all about choices. no one is going to be perfect for you, and i think we need to stop raising everyone on the belief that someone out there, just one other person in the whole world, was “made for you” because it isn’t true. no one is made for you, besides you. other people belong to themselves. if you want to make it work with someone, it’s about hard work, understanding, compassion, communication, and choice

and there isn’t just “one other person” out there waiting for you. you can love multiple people over your lifetime. you can love multiple people at once. you can have more than one soulmate, or none. you can be your own soulmate. 

my point is…you aren’t missing your “other half.” you are a whole person by yourself, and if you love someone, you need to understand that they are a whole person too, not your “other half.”

how do i eradicate UNILAD and Elite Daily from my life completely

When you look at the changes in the sexual cultural climate for teenage girls now compared to 8-10 years ago, it’s completely shocking. The fact that pressuring underage girls to send sexually explicit pictures (and harassing them with unsolicited sexual pictures) is now so common as to be near universal, the fact that teenage girls are being coerced into sex acts taken straight from violent pornography, and that all of this is becoming normalised because teenage girls don’t know anything different, is just unbelievable. And to make things worse, if girls are hurt by this, sex-positive feminism goes out of its way to assure them that none of it has anything to do with the increased access that teenage boys have to pornography (and that if they see links between what boys are first watching and then repeating, then they’re disgusting oppressors). Young girls are being brought up in the presence of male violence increasingly enacted through the internet, and they’re not being given the tools to name it for what it is. 

over the course of their life time, an average melbournian will spend twenty five years sleeping, forty thousand dollars on coffee, and at least eight hundred years sitting on an unmoving train between fucking flinders street and the previous fucking station

“reach beyond my face”

“nearly physically assault me”

I’d make that face too
