I’m so impressed by these young women who recognize the issues and speak out on it. When I was 22 I think I was still in the “If I work hard and colour inside the lines then I can earn a place.” and hadn’t yet recognized all the systemic issues that meant that that wasn’t true for everyone, and maybe wasn’t true for…

Aside from the obvious misogyny and general dumbassness of this whole issue....how the hell are there Burmese doctors without any word for vagina? The whole concept of not having a word for an anatomical body part is totally bizarre. Like, imagine if there were no word for foot/feet and we just referred to feet as…
I did not wake up this morning thinking I would like Ariana Grande, yet here we are.
How the fuck can a full-grown adult speak words like, “If I wash my clothes with a woman’s garments, they will become contaminated and my all-mighty weiner might get infected with the woman-cooties” and actually look at themselves in the mirror every day without realizing they sound like an absolute, ultimately…
Is there a SINGLE religion left that doesn’t have whackadoodle men trying to control the females? FUCK YOU ALL! Lysistrata on your fucking asses! Or for that matter “your not a fucking chance in hell asses."
And it seems the main goal is the subjugation of women.
Sooooo......a pair of underwear that is in close proximity to <that what shall not be named> remains forever unclean. Does this mean that the penises that presumably enter said taboo spot also remain forever unclean?
Further proof that ALL religions have extremists. It’s not just muslims, it’s not just christians. They ALL use religion as a weapon.
If your “masculine power” can be so easily taken, you ain’t got much to begin with, I’d say.
At the end of the day, anytime a religion gains absolute power it immediately becomes tyrannical in nature. History has yet to show us this isn’t the case. Also, without exception, women receive the brunt of this tyranny. A pattern unbroken since the dawn of civilization.
“Compassion for all living beings is the most important thing in the world. What, you don’t agree? I kill you!”
Religion is religion. Bullshit sexist misogyny abounds. I think all my progressive friends (of which I am proudly part of) give Buddhism and Hinduism way too much of a pass. Fuck namaste if it perpetuates rape culture, violence against women, and homophobia. I have to be consistent: you got religion? Sell that shit…
I’d like to pretend that this is the worst injustice I’ve heard about in regards to a teacher, but I have personally witnessed SO much worse.
Its too often a thankless profession, and it chews people up and spits them out. I only lasted 2.5 years before I finally cracked. Now I’m in adult education, working half as…
“Even the symbol itself could mean several things.”
he and his writing team are 1000% smarter than me and I 2000% love every minute of it
Seriously, of all the people to gratuitously piss off, he chooses John Oliver? Has he seen the show? Oliver doesn’t take prisoners when it comes to public figures who don’t have a sense of humour about themselves. I can’t wait to see what he does with this!
Sometimes I think that Donald Trump’s people are like Mona Lisa and Jean Ralphio from Parks and Recs. They say things Trump wants to hear in exchange for money.
Someone on another thread basically told me John Oliver commits the sin of pride because he think he’s smarter than anyone else and for speaking against seed money. Oliver is smart and he was right to speak against seed money.
They were LITERALLY asked what Apps they use the most on their phones. God forbid they actually have to outline their plans to balance the budget (we know, cut taxes and all programs that benefit the poor, cause they just need to work harder).
