In sociology, homosociality means same-sex relationships that are not of a romantic or sexual nature, such as friendship, mentorship, or others. Researchers who use the concept mainly do so to explain how men uphold men's dominance in society.

“To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex.

Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving.” ― Marilyn Frye, The Politics of Reality: Essays in Feminist Theory

"i think women should be meaner!!" you can't even handle leg hair

YouTube trying to make me become racist while I listen to 1970s J-funk for 3 hours

The best thing I did for my youtube viewing experience was download an extension that allows me to block entire channels. Now when I don't like a thumbnail? Blam, obliterate it, never see it again - and youtube is none the wiser. Youtube has no choice but to bring me weird music videos and retro game reviews.

You know, needing to add basic functionality to a platform yourself to fight back against the forces of enshittification is something tumblr trained me well for. You need like 5 third party extensions to make this site remotely usable.

-Carrie Chapman Catt, 1902

"i don't get ttpd" ok well some of you have never been promised the world by a 5'10 poor excuse of a man just to get absoutely nothing out of it but embarrassment and distress and for that i'm jealous of you

My goyim followers, all those ‘punch Nazi’ posters who have remained silent, or worse, celebrated, this is you. We see you. We remember.

Rachel Moran wants you to stop using the term sex work.

“I cringe when I hear the words “sex work.” Selling my body wasn’t a livelihood. There was no resemblance to ordinary employment in the ritual degradation of strangers’ using my body to satiate their urges. I was doubly exploited — by those who pimped me and those who bought me.

I know there are some advocates who argue that women in prostitution sell sex as consenting adults. But those who do are a relatively privileged minority — primarily white, middle-class, Western women in escort agencies — not remotely representative of the global majority. Their right to sell doesn’t trump my right and others’ not to be sold in a trade that preys on women already marginalized by class and race.”

healing is when you have an intrusive thought and instead of having a meltdown you go “girl what?? shut up” and move on

television meme [6/10] crime-fighting women ∟ olivia benson:  the truth is, everybody changes every day and some things are more devastating than others, but we never are the same. there are two ways to deal with these changes: you either accept them or you fight them like hell all the way.

One of the worst parts of current internet culture is that it makes good old fashioned complaining so difficult. I don’t wanna cancel anyone or bully anyone, I’m not trying to form a hate mob I’m not calling anyone out, i just wanna bitch about something. Because complaining is fun, good for you, even. Is that too much to ask? Where is the room for shooting the shit?

the woman you’re becoming will cost you people, relationships, spaces, and material things. choose her over everything.
