People never believe that I am 38.

PETA theory.
thefremen:
You know how sexist, racist and condescending ads for different corporations are made by the same people? I was just wondering if the Susan G Komen people, PETA and anti-choicers all went to the same people for their stuff. It would make a lot of sense.
Ugh, and tomorrow is October first so prepare yourself to be bombarded with messages about how fucking sexy breast cancer is and...

thefremen:
The FBI is moving to change the federal definition of rape for the first time in 80 years, which authorities and women’s advocacy groups hope will lead to improved tracking of the crime and an attitude shift among investigators.
Critics have maintained that the current definition is archaic, too narrow, and leaves crimes uncounted in police statistics, resulting in fewer...

Whether we call them because of a dispute between neighbors or a robbery, a shooting or sexual violence, the police rarely meet our needs. They don’t help us heal. And they don’t prevent future harm. Rather than serve as advocates for true justice, they use their incredible power to reinforce...

For everyone who does not know, I have been informed that I am being kicked out of my current home. My landlady has sold the house where my mates and I stay, and has told us that we have until October 31st to leave.
The good news is that I am not going to be homeless. I will be living with my parents for awhile until I get back on my feet.
The bad news is...

I'm feeling intensely content

slutwalk and THIS woman of color.
museumouth:
you know what i find interesting?
in an effort to be “inclusive” and to address their privilege, many white feminists (on tumblr) have reblogged, linked to, or referenced different articles concerning slutwalk’s exclusion of women of color. i’m not denying that slutwalk is problematic in a multitude of ways, but it’s just funny how lots of people are trying to recognize the concerns...

feministdykeslut:
I think I’m the last person, who if you asked 4 months ago, would be writing this piece. But, seriously it’s something I need to get off my chest. To start this off I will be quoting Bell Hooks, with what I think is the best summary of what feminist education should be but what hardly is:
Feminist education —- the feminist classroom —— is and should be a place where there is...
