WHIMSICAL MUGS âĄ
When a person with ADHD complains of severe anxiety, I recommend that the clinician not immediately accept the patientâs label for her emotional experience. A clinician should say, âTell me more about your baseless, apprehensive fear,â which is the definition of anxiety. More times than not, a person with ADHD hyperarousal will give a quizzical look and respond, âI never said I was afraid.â If the patient can drop the label long enough to describe what the feeling is like, a clinician will likely hear, âI am always tense; I canât relax enough to sit and watch a movie or TV program. I always feel like I have to go do something.â The patients are describing the inner experience of hyperactivity when it is not being expressed physically.
At the same time, people with ADHD also have fears that are based on real events in their lives. People with ADHD nervous systems are consistently inconsistent. The person is never sure that her abilities and intellect will show up when they are needed. Not being able to measure up at the job or at school, or in social circles is humiliating. It is understandable that people with ADHD live with persistent fear. These fears are real, so they do not indicate an anxiety disorder.
holy SHIT
why is it that Taylor Swift specifically is being made the face of eco-terrorism when she barely ranks 77th place on the list of celebrities with the most carbon emissions? why her, and not Travis Scott, who ranks 1st place? any idea?
and why is this gaining popularity again right after the AI pornography spectacle? any idea? any idea why people are so eager to demonize a woman who was just recently the victim of misogyny?
im thinking of jobs that involve contact with the private area. doctors, beauty salons, tattooist/piercer. they all wear gloves and work in sterile environments, also the worker is clothed.
im thinking of jobs that involve saliva. also doctors, covid test stations. again, sterile environment, worker is clothed, probably even wearing a mask, and gloves.
im thinking of jobs where the worker has to get naked. actors and actresses, models. they are at least supposed to have a coach on set and an agent supporting their safety.
none of this is implemented in prostitution and never will be because it destroys the illusion of it being about sex and not money and power exerted through it. sex cant be regulated or professionalised and thats beside the point that with all possible regulations it is still unwanted sex.
I havenât opened tumblr in ages but iâm here to ask other CSA survivors: how tf do you cope? Iâm soooooo tired. Tell me iâm not the only one. Please

super duper cool that every time i see any sort of feminist statement i have to check if op is a terf. totally fun i love doing it.
You "have to" check if op is a terf because you're part of a movement that hates feminism and will excommunicate you if you don't carefully prune away any content from subversive people.
what if... hear me out... when you encounter a new idea you consider it in light of your own knowledge and beliefs and try to determine if the belief is something you agree with or not based on its own merit and not whether or not youâre supposed to agree with it according to your preferred social media platform

Marguerite Stern is a french feminist who started the collage feminicide movement: women who write on street walls about male violence. She started it all by herself one night. She once posted a video of a man agressively confronting her while she was doing it and it was pretty scary. This is her:
behind her is written "she leaves him, he kills her"
"Julie was killed by her ex on the third of march 2019, she had filed 5 complaints to the police"
"the 124th femicide victim of the year was your neighbour"
"femicide: government guilty, justice complicit"
Of course Marguerite has received a lot of attention from anti-feminists, but the most vicious ones have been trans activists. They hijacked the collage feminicide movement and used Marguerite's technique to advocate violence against the women they called "terfs". On the walls, instead of calling out male violence, they wrote "burn terfs at the stake", "genital preference is transphobia", "save a trans kill a terf" and other pornographic and "queer" nonsense, just repeating what americans say basically. Marguerite condemned these actions and has been critical of gender ideology, even giving her support to J.K. Rowling.
After this, she says her life completely changed and she was attacked like she'd never been before. She receives graphic death threats on a regular basis, simply because she does not believe it is possible for a man to be a woman. Trans activists have made fun of her appearance saying she needed "facial feminization surgery", have threatened to kill her family and told her to prepare their funerals, have openly discussed assaulting her by taking notes of which streets she uses etc. I've seen it all with my own two eyes. Exhausted by all of this, Marguerite was recently admitted to a hospital for mental health issues and took a break to recover. 2 days ago she received two graphic death threats, one is a painting that is actually displayed in a gallery, showing Marguerite being decapitated.
I'm making this post in support of Marguerite, I think those who dare to take a stand on behalf of women need to know they aren't alone in this. I also want to remind everyone once again that currently the most vehement anti-feminists are not our typical MRAs, but the proponents of gender ideology.
"My life is really hard. But I wouldn't change it for the world. Because I offered myself the greatest of luxury: expressing my ideas freely and being perfectly at ease with my morals."

You can support her through her patreon or simply send her a nice message on twitter, instagram or facebook.
Marguerite is incredible and we need more women like her
In the 1960â˛s Legally a woman couldnât
Open a bank account or get a credit card without signed permission from her father or hr husband.
Serve on a jury - because it might inconvenience the family not to have the woman at home being her husbandâs helpmate.
Obtain any form of birth control without her husbandâs permission. You had to be married, and your hub and had to agree to postpone having children.
Get an Ivy League education. Ivy League schools were menâs colleges ntil the 70â˛s and 80â˛s. When they opened their doors to women it was agree that women went there for their MRS. Degee.
Experience equality in the workplace: Kennedyâs Commission on the Status of Women produced a report in 1963 that revealed, among other things, that women earned 59 cents for every dollar that men earned and were kept out of the more lucrative professional positions.
Keep her job if she was pregnant.Until the Pregnancy Discrimination Act in 1978, women were regularly fired from their workplace for being pregnant.
Refuse to have sex with her husband.The mid 70s saw most states recognize marital rape and in 1993 it became criminalized in all 50 states. Nevertheless, marital rape is still often treated differently to other forms of rape in some states even today.
Get a divorce with some degree of ease.Before the No Fault Divorce law in 1969, spouses had to show the faults of the other party, such as adultery, and could easily be overturned by recrimination.
Have a legal abortion in most states.The Roe v. Wade case in 1973 protected a womanâs right to abortion until viability.
Take legal action against workplace sexual harassment. According to The Week, the first time a court recognized office sexual harassment as grounds for legal action was in 1977.
Play college sports Title IX of the  Education Amendments of protects people from discrimination  based on sex in education programs or activities that receive Federal financial  assistance It was nt until this statute that colleges had teams for womenâs sports
Apply for menâs Jobs  The EEOC rules that sex-segregated help wanted ads in newspapers are illegal.  This ruling is upheld in 1973 by the Supreme Court, opening the way for women to apply for higher-paying jobs hitherto open only to men.
This is why we needed feminism - this is why we know that feminism works
I just want to reiterate this stuff, because I legit get the feeling there are a lot of younger women for whom it hasnât really sunk in what it is todayâs GOP is actively trying to return to.
Did you go to a good college? Shame on you, you took a college placement that could have gone to a man who deserves and needs it to support or prepare for his wife & children. But if you really must attend college, well, some men like that, you can still get married if you focus on finding the right man.
Got a job? Why? A man could be doing that job. You should be at home caring for a family. You shouldnât be taking that job away from a man who needs it (see college, above). You definitely donât have a career â youâll be pregnant and raising children soon, so no need to worry about promoting you.
This shit was within living memory. IâM A MILLENIAL and my mother was in the second class that allowed women at an Ivy League school. Men who are alive today either personally remember shit like this or have parents/family who have raised them into thinking this was the way America functioned back in the blissful Good Old Days. There are literally dudes in the GOP old enough to remember when it was like this and yearn for those days to return.
When people talk about resisting conservativism and the GOP, weâre not just talking about whether the wage gap is a myth or not. Weâre talking about whether women even have the fundamental right to exist as individuals, to run their own households and compete for jobs and be considered on an equal footing with men in any arena at all in the first place.
I was a child in the 1960s, a teenager in the 1970s, a young adult in the 1980s. This is what it was like: When I was growing up, it was considered unfortunate if a girl was good at sports. Girls were not allowed in Little League. Girlsâ teams didnât exist in high school, except at all-girlsâ high schools. Boys played sports, and girls were the cheerleaders. People used to ask me as a child what I wanted to be when I grew up. I said I wanted to be a brain surgeon or the first woman justice on the Supreme Court. Everyone told me it was impossibleâthose just werenât realistic goals for a girlâthe latter, especially, because you couldnât trust women to judge fairly and rationally, after all. In the 1960s and 1970s, all women were identified by their marital status, even in arrest reports and obituaries. In elementary school, my science teacher referred to Pierre Curie as DOCTOR Curie and Marie Curie as MRS. CurieâŚbecause, as he put it, âshe was just his wife.â (Both had doctorates and both were Nobel prize winners, so you would think that both would be accorded respect.) Companies could and did require women to wear dresses and skirts. Failure to do could and did get women fired. And it was legal. It was also legal to fire women for getting married or getting pregnant. The rationale was that a woman who was married or who had a child had no business working; that was what her husband was for. Aetna Insurance, the biggest insurance company in America, fired women for all of the above. A man could rape his wife. Legally. I can remember being twelve years old and reading about legal experts actually debating whether or not a man could actually be said to coerce his wife into having sex. This was a serious debate in 1974. The debate about marital rape came up in my law school, too, in 1984. Could a woman be raped by her husband? The guys all said noâa woman got married, so she was consenting to sex at all times. So I turned it around. I asked them if, since a man had gotten married, that meant that his wife could shove a dildo or a stick or something up his ass any time she wanted to for HER sexual pleasure. (Hey, I thought it was reasonable. If one gender was legally entitled to force sex on the other, then obviously the reverse should also be true.) The male law students didnât like the idea. Interestingly, they commented that being treated like that would make them feel like a woman. My reaction was, âThank you for proving my pointâŚâ The concept of date rape, when first proposed, was considered laughable. If a woman went out on a date, the argument of legal experts ran, sexual consent was implied. Even more sickening was the fact that in some statesâeven in the early 1980sâa man could rape his daughterâŚand it was no worse than a misdemeanor. Women taking self-defense classes in the 1970s and 1980s were frequently described in books and on TV as âcute.â The implication was that it was absurd for a woman to attempt to defend herself, but wasnât it just adorable for her to try? I was expressly forbidden to take computer classes in junior and senior years of high schoolâ1978-79 and 1979-80âbecause, as the principal told me, âOnly boys have to know that kind of thing. You girls are going to get married, and you wonât use it.â When I was in collegeâfrom 1980 to 1984âthere were no womensâ studies. The idea hadnât occurred in many places because the presumption was that there was nothing TO study. My history professorâa man who had a doctorate in historyâinformed me quite seriously that women had never produced a noted painter, sculptor, composer, architect or scientist becauseâŚwait for itâŚwomensâ brains were too small. (He was very surprised when I came up with a list of fifty women gifted in the arts and science, most of whom he had never heard of before.) When Walter Mondale picked Geraldine Ferraro as a running mate in 1984, the press hailed it as a disaster. What would happen, they asked fearfully, if Mondale died and Ferraro became president? What if an international crisis arose and she was menstruating? She could push the nuclear button in a fit of PMS! It would be the end of the WORLD!! âŚNo, they WERENâT kidding. On the surface, things are very different now than they were when I was a child, a teen and a young adult. But Iâm afraid that people now do not realize what it was like then. Iâve read a lot of posts from young women who say that they are not feminists. If the only exposure to feminism they have is the work of extremists, I cannot blame them overmuch. I wish that I could tell them what feminism was like when it was newâwhen the dream of legal equality was just a dream, and hadnât even begun to come true. When âwomanâs workâ was a sneerâand an overt putdown. When people tut-tutted over bright and athletic girls with the words, âReally, itâs a shame sheâs not a boy.â That lack of feminism wasnât all men opening doors and picking up checks. A lot of it was an attitude of patronizing contempt that hasnât entirely died out, but which has become less publicly acceptable. I wish I could make them feel what it was likeâŚwhen grown men were called âmenâ and grown women were âgirls.â
Know your history.
So this, too, is what they mean saying âmake America great againâ and/or the good old days.
REBLOG FOREVER.
I am 70. I remember all those things. I was a student nurse from 64 to 67 and we were not permitted to âfinishâ a bed bath on a male or insert a catheter in a male. Seeing male genitals might cause us âharmâ or upset our delicate sensibilities. Imagine when we graduated and were âthrownâ to the wolves. Imagine if you were a male patient who had to be the first to be âpracticedâ on by a graduate nurse. (Ha!) At the school I attended no student nurse could be married. Only one school in my city (Atlanta) would even admit married women and Male Nurses werenât even thought of. What man would want to be a nurse when he could be a Doctor. In all my training I only remember 3 or 4 Women who were Doctorâs and a very few, (less than 5 or 6) female interns or residents (and this was a teaching hospital) and most of those were OB/Gyns and one was a pediatrician.
When I graduated and was going to get married I wanted to go on birth control pills. You needed to be on them for a least one cycle before they were effective. I wonât go into what hoops I had to jump through to get a prescription from my Dr. (a man, natch) but when i went to the drug store to get the prescription filled I ended up having to get my future husband to âaccompanyâ me so the pharmacist âinterviewâ him and see if it was okay with him for me to be on the pill.
Even when we went to get a marriage license I had to get my Fatherâs signature and we had to go before a Judge because I was not yet 21 (I was 20 and 9 months).
I could go on and on, getting a credit card in MY name, etc., but I will tell you that WE MUST RESIST.
The number of people I know who romanticize gender inequality is frankly terrifying. A world never existed in which the lives of women were simplified by benevolent men who saw to her every want and need. That was not a thing. A world never existed in which women were all ladies, men were all gentlemen, & everything was some great big cishet fairytale. Feminists arenât a bunch of upstarts who want to destroy a perfectly wholesome and non-harmful system. JustâŚlook at history. Look at the posts above. We. Must. Resist..
About 8: The State of New York only added No-Fault Divorce as an option in 2010 (!!!)
I want to repeat here.Â
This is what they mean, when they say âOld-fashioned valuesâ
When conservatives start waxing lyrical about the âgood old daysâ, this is what they mean. They are fully aware how much things blew for women, and they would like to return to that.Â
This is so important. Young women need to understand the struggle that came before. I am begging everyone who is a US citizen and over 18 to register to VOTE and VOTE!!!
This might be obvious in retrospect, but one thing that hit me was about the âgood ole daysâ thing; Iâm in my early 20âs, so I wasnât around before a lot of major strides in womenâs rights, but all of these men in politics were. They want to go back to the âgood ole daysâ because they literally lived through it. Yeah, they knew how much it sucked to be a woman because they witnessed it first hand. They donât care. They actively want us to suffer, and at their hands.
