“I don’t think it’s just women anymore.”

I agree. I’ll make fun of someone who has silly reasons for not identifying as a feminist (e.g. “I’m not a feminist because I don’t hate men”) but it sounds like she might be saying feminism can exclude women of color and LGBT women, which is a pretty decent reason not to use the term.

Yeah the word you’re looking for is egalitarian, not humanist. Humanism is a belief system based on the belief that humans can sort themselves out without rules from a divine being & focuses on rationalism and empiricism over deism. Egalitarianism is the correct term for people that believe everyone needs a little

Except they’re two significantly different things; to even suggest one is an alternative to the other illustrates a fundamental ignorance of both. I think before anything else changes, we should make it illegal to form and share opinions about a subject without at least reading its Wikipedia entry. I’m so tired of

This is part of the overall problem. The women’s team may not generate as much revenue but why? Because they are not fucking awesome? No. Then why? Tell me!

Watch it on TV whenever you can find it and ask your tv provider to make it available to you

YES! That is what I love about the Women’s World Cup - I saw ZERO diving.

This game was SO f*cking fun to watch for the USA too. Also just noticed that the women spend a lot less time doing sh*t like this:

Over half of the terrorists associated with the Islamic State are middle-class, well-educated people. ISIL itself is well-funded, well-armed, and even its rank-and-file soldiers are wealthier than the average people in that region. This is not a decision of last resort for the terrorists. ISIL has an appeal to them.

“So, how did the two of you meet?”

They probably just moved to Syria for the affordable house prices and better job market tbh. London is brutal.

Fuck em. Seriously, between the kids stoned during Ramadan, the women beheaded for ‘sorcery’ and the continued reports of an expanding slave markets from the past month my sympathy for anyone who aligns themselves with or joins ISIS is at an all time low.

God, couldn’t imagine what their parents are going through.

yeah Superman is such a nice guy. . . always playing F’d up mind games with his friends, making them them think they are going to die, been a holier than thou, goody goody douche in general. Sorry but Silver Age Superman sucks balls and MoS is a big improvement.

They also cry.

girls just can’t comprehend science

Real question: when they talk about boys falling behind, do they really mean girls getting ahead? Like one group has to lose for another to win? There seems to be a lot of this sentiment lately.

Oh, I see. So we’re against anti-vaxxers but we’re all for little Cash infecting a robotics class with a vicious case of cooties? Hypocrites.

I mean on the bright side at least they told her no because boys are apparently quite stupid and need their own special hand-holding club.

Way to go, library. After all, you wouldn’t want to encourage kids to learn something and love the library, would ya?
