It is a shame that these women are all too often forgotten by western feminism...

Sure, rape culture is not a problem that exists in India only, although we cannot deny how pervasive and brutal it is. However, the prevalence of rape culture is not the only thing that this criticism of India is about. To ignore the caste system’s impact and to ignore how deeply ingrained it is in India is absolutely…

#NotAllIndians?

I am very well aware of the fact that no religion, and certainly not catholicism, will ever accept anything that defies cis/heteronormativity. And you know what? I am at peace with that fact. I don’t want acceptance from someone that has persecuted my people for centuries. That blood can never be washed away. But…

You might have the luxury of ignoring the uncomfortable truth, but I do not.

You think that men in open relationships can’t be misogynists? Awww, how cute.

What a novel concept!

“You’re telling me that you’re a perfectly normal human being with perfectly normal sexual desires and you want to use birth control to better your own life and the lives of those around you? You filthy whore, you’re going straight to Hell!”

You must be really, really easy to impress.

“You’re telling me that you’re a perfectly normal human being with perfectly normal sexual desires and you want to use birth control to better your life and the lives of the people around you? You filthy whore, how dare you? You’re going straight to Hell!”

“Fine, fine, us catholics will try not to be so homophobic. You can be gay if you’re an animal in a children’s book. Oh, you’re an actual living, breathing human being, you’re gay* and you want all of the rights given to straight people? Oh, that’s not good enough? Well, tough luck, bitch. Oh, and speaking of bitches…

Your comment is a breath of fresh air. Seeing so many people here bend over backwards trying to give Chill Pope applause for feigning less than basic human decency made me fucking nauseous.

Woah, so fucking difficult to feign acceptance of animal characters in a children’s book. Call me when he gives LGBT people ALL of the rights afforded to cis, straight people and when he stops railing against the use of birth control. Until then, he can go fuck himself.

People are not blaming him only for the atrocities of the past. There are numerous crimes that the Catholic Church is committing today. One is railing against the use of birth control. Birth control is absolutely fucking crucial, especially in third world countries, yet Chill Pope and his institution are trying their…

No. That’s not what he’s trying to do. A lot of people are starting to realize what a hateful, bigoted and harmful institution the Catholic Church really is. He’s just using his Chill Pope persona trying to salvage some of the power that his institution has had for centuries. He might look as innocent as a dove, but…

Beneath that shroud of chilness and progressivism is the same dark evil responsible for the persecution of all LGBT people, amongst numerous other crimes. I am absolutely sickened to see so many people, even here, bend over backwards trying to applaud his pitiful attempts at basic human decency. Fucking disgrace...

No. I do not have an ounce of respect or appreciation for someone that is very aware of the role that catholicism has had in the spread of vehement homophobia and transphobia, and that continues to persecute my people today. “If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there’s no progress.…

Oh, you silly, did you forget the part where Chill Pope™ compared the threat of transgender acceptance to that of nuclear weapons? So adorable!

Perhaps it’s his aura of misogyny that you can’t stand...

Burn!
