Right after I finally broke free of my father (who was sexually, physically, and emotionally abusing me) and was seeing a therapist courtesy of Victim Witness, she started telling me I was a sociopath.

I have found men in general to be almost completely clueless about how women’s reproductive organs work. I know a man who thought a woman could “clamp up” and stop her period. I’ve had men ask why women don’t need transfusions after their period because they bleed for a week. Some don’t know the functional difference…

“It’s very bloody. It’s painful. There’s cramping, pelvic cramping.”

When I terminated my pregnancy I took the first pill at the clinic and then immediately went home and following the instructions of the clinic inserted the second pill myself later in the evening. I did this all at home and could absolutely have done it even if I just had a virtual consult with a doctor. It wasn’t…

SHE IS NOT BLACK. IT WILL JUST BE REGULAR OLD BLACKFACE BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT SHE IS DOING. Seriously. You just typed “acceptable blackface”. And you also commented on how we need to have empathy for this woman. You have some soul searching to do.

I mean, I totally get that gay people don’t want straight assholes trying on their identity for a day (or a tweet) for laughs or to be cute, but I don’t think we should smack stuff like this down so quickly because honestly, - sexuality is a spectrum, and the more people express that and accept that, in all kinds of…

You’re totally right. After this let’s all go to Hot Topic and bitch about the preppy girls and jocks.

this is the 1st comment on karreuche’s ig post

I mean...I get it, sort of. It’s a little trite, how the straight girls will all CONVENIENTLY have “crushes” on whoever is the culturally-approved Straight Girl Crush (is it not Angelina anymore? It was Angelina for *ages*), which makes it seem like not so much a crush as adopting a social signifier (“I am one of the…

What is with the tone of this?! I’m bi, and I have no problem with ‘straight’ girls saying this - maybe they’re not straight and this is how they’re finding out? Why are they not allowed to express that they have an unexpected attraction? It’s not taking anything away from me.

I’m torn because while I agree with this...in fact I was pretty pissed that I’ve had friends completely erase my bisexuality and make it seem like any time I expressed my interest in women that I was doing it for attention....and now they all seem to be jumping on the “omg look at me questioning my sexuality lolol”…

St. Francis Of Assisi — ‘All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.’

These books were my life in middle school. My favorite thing about them ever was Vera’s “I couldn’t possibly have been the murderer because I had just painted my nails” alibi from My Sweet Audrina.

How about you edit your article

you are more likely to catch something like hepatitis from a shitty manicurist than from a tattoo shop where health and safety requirements are much stiffer.

This article is tone-deaf. Ugh. Just edit it and we’ll all pretend you didn’t take that approach.

I’ve always wanted someone to write Flowers for Algernon in the Attic — this miraculous treatment has increased my intelligence a hundredfold! But it also filled me with strange desires towards my sibling...

I have to agree with the other commenters, why the snark against tall women? As though they are not marginalized enough? Or are you just incapable of sympathizing with anyone’s problems that aren’t also yours?

I don’t understand the snark (“gripe” “tall people problems”). Being a tall woman in a society that idealizes female daintiness, portrays women who are taller than men as threats and ineligible for romantic relationships, and even cautions us not to take up too much physical space can be emotionally taxing. I’m only…

So, reading “Handmaid’s Tale” this last week was a bad idea for me. I am now blind with rage. I am using a braille typewriter.
