Bathtub faucet, problem solved

I shit you not this was an episode of Degrassi recently. Some character got in trouble for having a bra strap showing and as revenge the next day wore her bra over her shirt. I guess in this case, Degrassi wasn't too over the top.

Visible bra straps a problem: don't wear bras! Problem solved right? I'm sure the school will be cool with this elegant solution. Now let's all jump for joy.

I'm pretty sure you just won the internet. Well done.

I like you a whole lot.

Ah, you strike up a good point. Male trivialization. That one's going to be one high hurdle to clear, and don't expect men to make it easy.

in other words: "I need to throw other women under the bus in order to gain male validation!"

"If I close my eyes and pretend there isn't a fire, it won't spread and burn my entire house down. If I acknowledge the fire then I know it's there and I have to run, and I feel ashamed to run because I don't want to admit I don't have control over my own safety."

This is how I put it to my male officemates last year, when a member of the custodial staff had started making a habit of cornering female grad students who were working late/alone. "He's harmless! Have you ever talked to him? He's a funny guy!"

Dear #NotAllMen,

You forgot to add: "I don't think guys will like me if I call myself a feminist. I'm not a bitch". Or something like that...

And it's comments like yours that highlight that men need feminism, too. My friend tagged me in this picture on Facebook awhile ago, just reposting it.

I was discussing with my father what misogyny was. And eventually he told me that in his experience (he has PTSD) people who experience trauma don't talk about it on a website. He said that if they were assaulted they should go to a police station and report it. I told him that it is a very personal crime and women…

My mom thinks she's a feminist, but when talking about something like the football players who raped the girl in Steubenville, she'll be the first to say "Well, she shouldn't have been drinking." It always stuns me, then leaves me so sad.

This doesn't solve the problem for all women everywhere, but it's a start. Protect yourself.

The best way to prove that you're not a misogynist is to deny that misogyny exists and believe that anyone who perpetuates the idea that MAYBE IT DOES is just a fat, bitter cunt.
