thelostsunprincess:
What I do want to tell you is that you need to stop using the “wives, sisters, daughters” argument when you are talking to people defending the Steubenville rapists. Or any rapists. Or anyone who commits any kind of crime, violent or otherwise, against a woman.
In case you’re unfamiliar with this line of rhetoric, it’s the one that goes like this:
You should stop defending...

keepfeminismindisney:
Sports pundits are still be trying to make yesterday’s Super Bowl all about the actual game (and yes, that 108-yard touchdown was pretty impressive), but let’s be honest with ourselves—the real winner of the game was Beyoncé’s halftime performance. And not just because she didn’t lip sync or because of the holograms, but because of the fact that for the first time in...

Dear Disney fans,
shooting4ownhand:
Critiquing a Disney movie does not mean we hate Disney, think Walt Disney is the devil, or have some stick up our ass. Most people who critique Disney do enjoy the films and do actually like Disney. We are also about to think critically about the media we consume. Disney was no saint. He heavily relied on stereotypes in his films. Haven’t you notice all his female heroines,...

Please sign this petition, even if you don’t watch the show. While there are many feminist debates about this show, one thing we can all agree on is a convicted rapist should NOT be on this show. This is a slap in the face of all survivors of sexual assault/rape and the survivors who are fans of the show. This is absolutely disgusting.

First, a story.
So, my first semester of my freshman year of college, I took this Intro to Women’s Studies class. The class met for five hours a week, one two hour session and one three hour session, and the breakdown of students was what I eventually discovered to be the typical sampling in any Women’s Studies class with no pre-recs at my mid-sized, southern Ohio state school. There...

Repeat until that sinks into your thick heads. Men can face oppression for being a POC, working class/poor, gay, trans, etc. but they are not oppressed for being male. They have this thing called male privilege which women DO NOT HAVE.

So cute and funny. You cannot support a political party (GOP) and political movement (pro-life movement) that actively hurts women and call yourself a feminist. It doesn’t work because feminist are for women’s rights & gender equality.

Being sexualized does NOT mean you are sexual.
shooting4ownhand:
Girls are sexualized in society but that does NOT mean they are sexual. Women (and girls/teenagers) are being sexualized, i.e. being seen as sexy/sex object/having a sexuality, by society but that does not mean they are sexual. Just because a person is seen as sexual does not mean they have sex/masturbate/etc. Sexualized and sexual are two different things.
