“Women have it rough, but” now that that’s out of the way let’s talk about how patriarchy hurts men the most.

We do agree that a woman has to go through a lot. The leering, the catcalls, the groping, the societal othering, the miasma of all this that women bear the brunt of every damn day. Every single day is a war to them. BUT Generalizing the other gender, is not right.Not all men are rapists. Not all men abuse their…

#CouldaRapedYouButAteASandwichAndTookANapInsteadYoureWelcome

When I’m at a restaurant, I do not uppercut the waitstaff.

So... When do I get my firm congratulatory handshake?

Subtext: there is no such thing as rape culture and women are basically imagining it because look at all the dudes who haven’t assaulted them!

I’ve never killed a woman. You’re welcome ladies.

Um ok like literally just get rid of #BlameOneNotAll and replace it with #WellIShouldFuckingHopeNot and we’re good

Bleh.

These people ASTOUND me. Because wasn’t casting stones this walking dumpster fire’s JOB?!? He worked for a goddamn hate group, which, along with his family, campaigned actively against LGBTQ+ rights. And a fucking 15-year-old knows better than to diddle little kids.

I’d advise staying away from places like the official Duggar facebook page. The people defending him are about to give me a rage stroke. Lots of “he who hasn’t sinned should cast the first stone,” “it’s normal for young boys to be sexually curious,” “it was in the past,” “god forgives all,” etc. Because you know,…

I was just thinking this. Seems like another way to demonize the poors. It's not like we don't care, it's just that we can't pay 50$ for a T Shirt when Old Navy sells it for $6. Of course I don't want anyone to work in a sweatshop.

This whole article is fantastic. About 2/3’s of the way through it, got to this,

Why? Racism + Sexism.

Because a powerful woman in control of her own destiny is more terrifying to the establishment than a gay man in control of his own destiny.

We really don’t know how long she has... But we really don’t care.

That "gotta hear both sides!" (copyright @Desus) mentality is the worst. Like with politics: Dems say x, Republicans say z, so the truth has to be somewhere in the middle at y. No! It doesn't! One side could just be full of shit.

I think most of us are predisposed to look for ambiguity, for a grey area between the "he said" and the "she said" because we are programmed to do so out of a misguided sense of skepticism or even agnosticism when it comes to sexual assault. In my own case, that was the most crazy-making aspect; otherwise perfectly…
