Dying right now.
I cannot believe this got so many notes. But this is the continuation.
THIS WOMAN IS MY NEW HERO.
HERO.
When the Internet gives you lemons, make lemonade.
This is such a righteous post that I am happy I stayed up late. I will probably still regret going to school on 5hrs of sleep, but then I’ll just think of this and not give a damn.
Wow. She is awesome O_O
Such poise and grace when facing such a jackass.
Brava!SHE’S THE BOSS!!!! :D
Damn, I sure would love to know what happened to that jackass, gotta love how his balls shrunk when facing the perspective of talking to his mommy…
I’ve seen two copies of someone sending pictures of a “conversation” of this nature sending them to the assbag in question’s mother.
Can we give it a name or something? -
Texas Says It's OK to Shoot an Escort If She Won't Have Sex With You
TW: violence against sex workers.
A jury in Bexar County, Texas just acquitted Ezekiel Gilbert of charges that he murdered a 23-year-old Craigslist escort, agreeing that because he was attempting to retrieve the $150 he’d paid to Lenora Ivie Frago, who wouldn’t have sex with him, his actions were justified.In this article, it’s established that the life of an escort is worth far less than $150.
Hear that girls? You’re worth NOTHING.
As if we needed more proof sex workers need to be given more rights.
… Okay that’s scary as Hell.

I’ve created these flyers for a school activist project where I bring more attention to the women in history that have been forgotten or ignored. This blog will be an extension of those flyers where I post longer biographies of these women and other bad-ass women like them. Too often women’s achievements have been pushed aside, either by others in their lives, or else by the historians who choose to ignore them. This tumblr is dedicated to celebrating them and bringing their achievements to light!
Wow, eff you, Otto Hahn.
THINGS HISTORY CLASS DOESN’T TEACH YOU
Thank you!
I actually remember learning about the Congresswoman. My teacher said she never got back in Congress after that.

We need feminism because people who claim to be feminists are condemning transgender people as mentally ill and insisting they be the gender that matches their chromosomes instead of the one that matches their identity and therefore perpetuating the same oppression on others they claim to be fighting against.

I need feminism because of Malala Yousafzai and Amina Filali.
I didn’t actually know about Amina Filali until I had a quick google search.
Jesus Christ, some countries laws are fucked up.
Marrying your rapist?
Malala Yousafzai on the other hand I do know about.
Muchos respect for her :D -
what you fail to realize is that video games shouldn’t cater to females in the first place. It’s largely known that it’s targeted towards the MALE demographic and has been for so many years, so why would they ask for something like that to be handed to them on a goddamn silver platter?
that’s like a guy walking into the women’s department of clothing at a sears and demanding that there be more clothing for men there. Separation of sections be damned.
that’s not how it fucking works
no not really
the game industry is more like walking into a regular department store and seeing that all the clothes are only men’s clothes
and when you ask the cashier where the women’s clothing section is, they wheel out a small rack of cheaply made tutus, g-strings, and high heels all in bright pink
and then when you go “wow really that’s it” you get called an uppity bitch and everybody assumes you want all the focus on you when in reality you’d just like to be considered a worthwhile demographic since you also like to wear clothes, it’s not like you want some ridiculous getup, you just want a solid shirt and pair of pants that fits you alright.
I mean hell you even sort of like men’s clothes and you have no problem wearing them. They suit you well. But it’s very obvious once you throw on a pair of men’s pants that they were not made for you.

Perfect metaphor is perfect.
Oh look, a sexist. How adorable.

“They say I have a sweet ass, nice tits, a real pretty dress. They say I’m their future wife, or I’d look good with their dick in my mouth. They try (and probably succeed at times) to take pictures down my shirt. They ask if they can get my number, they ask where I live, why I’m not smiling, why my boyfriend lets me walk around by myself. Then they ask why I’m such a bitch, if my pussy is made of ice. They say that they never do this, as though I’ve somehow driven them to inappropriate behavior and deserve it. They say they’re just having fun, trying to pay me a compliment. Pretty frequently they get mean, slipping into a loud tourettes-like chant of bitch-whore-cunt-slut.
Before you try to tell me that it’s because I take my clothes off for a living, let me tell you that this started way before I was 18. Let me tell you that every single woman I know has at least one truly terrifying story of street harassment and a whole bunch of other stories that are merely insulting or annoying. Let me remind you that in a room of pornography fans, who have actually seen me with a dick in my mouth and who can buy a replica of my vagina in a can or box, I am treated with far more respect than I am walking down the street.”—Stoya
“Let me remind you that in a room of pornography fans, who have actually seen me with a dick in my mouth and who can buy a replica of my vagina in a can or box, I am treated with far more respect than I am walking down the street.”
This line is so powerful.
