how sad it is that we create a society where we raise boys to base their self worth on whether or not they can trick unsuspecting women into sleeping with them and we raise girls to base their self worth on how long they lasted until they were tricked

Anonymous asked: Thank you for explaining, I just like to ask questions sorry. I hope I wasn't being a snarky anon.
kingstonique asked: hi, I just wanted to say that I love this blog and that there should be more things like this on tumblr. And that you are doing this so very right.
Anonymous asked: Just food for thought, I'm not meaning to start a fight or anything, but do you think that the "Let’s stop policing ourselves and each other" quote and the "i mean don’t you think it’s interesting that white feminists are PISSING THEMSELVES over the (barely noticeable) merida redesign" quote cancel each other out? Just thinking.

Today is the day Anne Boleyn was executed for treason, adultery and incest. Her punishment for not giving the king a male heir. Don’t lose your head over it though. We got jokes.

Good Gawd, THIS.

the fact that women’s healthcare seems to be a joke among men is sickening.

Why is Barack Obama’s Justice Department appealing a judge’s order that would make the morning-after pill more accessible to all women?
… THE JUSTICE Department’s decision to try to block Korman’s order isn’t about “protecting young women”—it’s about continuing the attack on young women’s right to control their own bodies. If the appeal succeeds, it would make it...

When then-14-year-old Gina Celaya killed the man who tried to rape her, the state of Arizona sentenced her to life in prison. Today — after twenty years in prison, and almost as many years of legal battles fought from state courts up to the federal court of appeals — Gina is finally free.

Tim Lambesis of Christian metal band As I Lay Dying was arrested Tuesday night in a murder-for-hire plot. Apparently, he did the nice Christian thing and tried to hire a hitman to MURDER his wife, who was filing for divorce. More like As I Lazily Lay on the Couch While Someone Else Does My Dirty Work, I guess?
Anyway, what do you do when you hear about the lead singer of this...
