Yup, because you have been trained to believe that you are too stupid to trust your gut instincts, which are telling you that this isn’t right. It’s the ultimate crazy-making: you know something is wrong, but everyone around you is telling you that it’s your fault, that since you’re the only one with the problem that…

My upbringing was conservative Christian, which meant that I was shit because I’m female. My parents raised me to never think for myself, and to constantly put them and their vision for me ahead of anything that I may have wanted. They also repeatedly told me that I was “too stupid to know how the real world worked”…

That sounds like the transition from 90s to 00s.  It’s like people got tired of being thoughtful collectively, and decided to just forget about civility.  The 90s weren’t perfect, but just look at the difference between the first 3 seasons of The Real World, where they at least tried to talk about racism and sexism,…

Same, same, same. Ex-husband baby-daddy? Abusive rapist piece of shit. Current boyfriend? Not perfect (because no one is), but makes me feel safe, loved, cherished, respected, and supported. I always thought relationships like this were a Hollywood creation that didn’t exist, as that’s what I had been told by my…

In Iron Fist, whenever anyone would ask Danny how he was going to do literally anything, he’d just look at them and say, “I’m the Immortal Iron Fist.” While he was receiving a blank stare back from the character he was talking to, I was yelling at my TV screen, “They don’t know what that means, you idiot! You have to…

I’d swap the DD S1 and JJ S1, but yes to everything else.

Hell, during WWII, we as a country ENCOURAGED that shit, since we sent our men overseas to fight in both theaters! We had a labor shortage, and we allowed women and immigrants to pick up the slack.

torture brown children < inconveniencing a racist, rich politician. Got it.

Wrong. This was a policy started by Miller, and supported by Trump and Sessions. The 1997 Flores agreement prevented this kind of behavior, but as usual the neo-Nazis in power decided they didn’t have to follow rules that they didn’t like.

My boyfriend and I had a guy get really pissy about it. He was like, “Oh, what? You’re gonna take my gym now? WTF?!”

Just pointing out how these guys operate. I’m thinking that you’ve probably had this happen to one of your partners, otherwise you wouldn’t be so defensive.

Not One to Be Inconsiderate now knows what it feels like to be a woman. Welcome to the club no one wants to be a part of!

I hear you. I’ve always worked hard, and had steady income. But when I fell on financial hard times, I fell behind on my student loan payments. Because of that, my credit score tanked. So even though my rent was and always has been paid on-time, I can’t get a home loan. Yet this bitch rolls up with nothing and the…

Meanwhile, I’ve got a solid work history, but can’t get a house loan. Maybe I’m a sucker for trying to do it “the right way”.

We don’t have nice social safety nets in place like some of our European allies. That’s why people go homeless for unpaid medical bills, there’s a problem with food insecurity in our rural and urban areas, and many jobs go unfilled because of corporations having unrealistic expectations during the hiring process (you…

I poop first because if it hits the water with a splash, I don’t want it splashing my own pee up on me.

About 10 years ago, when I attended church regularly, we had a woman that sang like that. She really, REALLY, loved singing about Jesus, but she was terrible. And because she was enthusiastic and married to a deacon, she got to sing every single week. I was always so happy when we had guest musical performers, and…

I’d be inclined to give the studio a pass if they gave a portion of the profits to organizations like RAINN. That way, they can say that they stand with the victims, while still giving the rest of the cast and crew the chance to highlight their work.

I’m just going to keep posting links to this until you idiots get it:
