Feminist

“ I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.”

“ The sexualisation of women is only appealing if it’s nonconsensual Otherwise, it’s ‘sluttiness’…”

- Linda west, “female ‘purity’ is bullshit”

I’m gonna tell my daughter everything, my entire life story. Every wrong, every pain. I want her to know i’ve been there, done that shit, she can come to be about ANYTHING and we can figure it out together. I don’t want her to go through anything alone, that’s how you get in a dark hole.

Men are raped too, and it’s a very serious problem. But, if the only time you talk about male survivors is when you are interrupting women talking about their own experience with sexual assault. Do not PRETEND to give a SHIT about male survivors.

Girls don't "mature" faster than boys, girls are punished from an early age for the same behavior that boys are allowed to indulge in well into adulthood.

She's a strong cup of black coffee in a world that is drunk on cheap wine of shallow love.

Every girl has had the experience where a creepy guy asks for our number and we don’t want to give it to him, but we also don’t want to get gutted in a back alley. “Give him a fake number!” I hear you call, okay and then he says “okay let me call you real quick!” Because they are learning. “Give them your number and then block them!” Okay and then they can plug it into something like Spokeo, pay $10 and know everything about you. So what do you do?

First pick a fake name, I use Jessica, then download the Google Voice app, hook it up to your email, pick a number, and set up a fake greeting with your fake name. You can set it to ring your actual phone like a normal call or text but they don’t have real info on you.

Go forth and be safe, ladies!

Rape is the only crime I can think of that’s 100% inexcusable. There’s absolutely no reason for it ever, in any circumstance. You can murder for self defense, you can steal to help your starving family, Even doing illegal drugs can help people calm down.

But rape doesn’t help anyone except the rapist. And it just baffles me too this day the way people will excuse rape with, “ Well, he/she was drunk.” or “what were you wearing?” or “he’s a guy though, he should’ve enjoyed it”.

It’s the one crime everyone should find inexcusable and yet it’s the one that people try to justify most often

She wasn't fragile like a flower, She was fragile like a bomb.

Feminism isn't about making women stronger. Women are already strong. It's about changing the way the world perceives their strength.

When men are oppressed, It's a tragedy. When women are oppressed, It's a tradition.

What's a Woman, without her Man?

Him : what's a Queen without her king?

Her : Well, historically speaking, more powerful.

Him : oh? what's Juliet without her Romeo?

Her : Oh, i don't know......ummm ALIVE!!?

[feminst]

We need feminism because a man in a room full of women is ecstatic, and a woman in a room full of men is terrified.

Wings

The same men

Who have clipped 

The wings off

Their women

Will say,

They prefer those

Who can fly.

Women are considered fragile but I've never seen anything as easily wounded as a Man's ego.

The first blood for a woman doesn't come from between her legs, it comes from biting her tongue.
