And if you want something to bitch about that affects men, here's some suggestions:

It's "SHEER", goddammit. "Shear" is to cut. "Sheer" is see-through.

I guess you've never been to Healthworks in Boston's beautiful Back Bay :)

But it's the 'principle' of it!

"There are a lot of weirdos roaming around."

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!"

This is really a beautiful and sad piece. I have to say that I get mad at feminists a lot. And I don't mean all feminists but I have encountered way too many who are more concerned with what I am doing as a woman than with the plight of women. I have encountered too many feminists who look down on me because I like

Which would be to acknowledge women's human dignity.

It's easy to see an obvious ass like the one whose comment I just dismissed. But the guy was your typical 'nice guy' who asked me to explain my viewpoints and then when I did turned into a three page #notallmen who got super pissed when I refused him a detailed reply. And sometimes I have a really hard time not to

The advantage of living in a more dangerous country is that people take safety more seriously, here noone would laugh at you for not wanting to walk alone at night, it's actually something unthinkable.

Dear #NotAllMen,

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.

But it doesn't kick in right away. I was maced at a security job and had 10 minutes before it kicked in. My attacker also got a good dose since I was able to shield half my face. In that time She was able to get away.

Oh yes I posted a comment about having to shut down my social media for fear a guy I rejected in MIDDLE SCHOOL would dox me after he threatened to do so. And some guy wrote he hopes I get doxxed and that everyone finds out what a horrible person I am. I am totally on board with suggestions on how to keep myself same

I am furious right there with you girl. And here is why. I don't want to be afraid of men. I don't want to think that anytime I walk past a man and I am alone I need to be on the defensive. I don't want to cringe when I am out for a jog and a car pulls up on the side of the road to park and all I can think about

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

#yesallwomen really, really hit a chord with me. Someone on my FB who is normally pretty reasonable said he thought that the UCSB killings were some sort of conspiracy because he couldn't understand why a 22 year old, vaguely attractive kid couldn't get laid. It nearly took my head clean off with rage, but it also

Thanks, Madeleine. My own mother started asking me if I hated men after explaining to her why I was participating in #YesAllWomen. I shouldn't have to. It's so basic. My mother considers herself a feminist and I still. have. to. explain. That's what gets me. That I have to go to such a basic level with so many people

Here is what I love, the fact that the same men who get pissed at us for saying we are threatened will blow off a rape survivor because she dressed like a "whore." So which is it? I we are so damned safe, why the hell can't we dress how we want?

"Why can't you just take a joke?"
