Freaks tend to reason “sex is not inherently traumatizing, ergo molestation is not that bad. Just a perception thing.” I take the opposite perspective. I think sex is an inherently fraught, vulnerable, loaded experience. And it makes sense you need adult cognition and confidence to navigate it without repercussion. Even so, adults are fucked up by (ostensibly consensual!) sexual experiences all the time. Sex can be totally “consensual,” and still traumatizing. This doesn’t speak to the immature and undeveloped perspective of the victim. It speaks to the highly personal, vulnerable, fraught nature of sex itself in any capacity

men will go "facts over feelings!" and then go through 7 stages of grief when you bring up statistics they don't like

[lesbihonest-art]

The 7 stages are all anger at women

I'm surprised that she didn't mention this, but it's not only the men in the affected zone of the conflict who take advantage of these women, it's the men who are working for the very charitable humanitarian agencies she's referring to that send people in to the zone of conflict in order to "help." multiple men who work for charities that went into Haiti after the earthquake were caught routinely refusing to give women the food and water that was meant to be freely provided unless they exchanged sexual favors for it. this also happened to mothers who were forced to let themselves be raped not only for their survival but bc the men in question were withholding these resources from their babies as well.

haiti is not the only place this has happened by a long shot, just one particular example that is at the forefront of my mind. the "helpers" can't be trusted either when they're men.

Its also near impossible to solve, because if your answer is to just send female aid workers, well then you're putting those women in danger of being raped and murdered by the men they were sent to help.

I guess you could set up two different systems, where men give out resources to men and boys, while women give out resources to women and girls but from within a guarded compound?

Okay, I was just going to reblog this without commentary, but I can't keep this to myself. I'm a PhD student in environmental science and this is my fucking highway.

The first published study about climate change (that I am aware of-- feel free to point out if there's an older one) is an 1896 paper by Svante Arrhenius. He pointed out the link between the greenhouse effect and changes in atmospheric CO2.

Plate tectonics, which the geoscience community now recognizes as near indisputable, was a fringe theory until about the 1960s.

Just in case anyone thought that climate change was a "recent fad" in research.

"not all men" except...it is all men. You're just not aware enough to realize it

i get why people don't believe in marriage as a social construct but legally it is the best and easiest way to say "this is who i trust to take care of me when i can't take care of myself" and i'm so glad gay people fought for that right bc when shit gets scary at least i know im in good hands

[certified-cervid]

hit her gpt-spot by accident and she started saying we weren't just having sex, we were teaching a masterclass on pleasure

[wizardarchetypes]

i wish mosquitos didn't make you itchy and give you horribly infectious diseases. i wouldn't begrudge them a humble nibble were it not so

I think if I heard I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas in the correct circumstances it could move me to tears. It's like the promise of a brighter future that never came to pass

"very guilty and problematic client" holy copaganda batman

[sentimentalslut]

let’s start parsing who does and doesn’t deserve representation and assign moral weight to agreeing to protect their rights I don’t see how this could possibly go wrong

[anarchistmemedistro]

[bitch-duck]

This is the endpoint of assigning morality based on ontologies of people. You wind up with the simplest ontology: good or bad.

[madlori]

Getting tired of saying this but

THE POINT OF A DEFENSE ATTORNEY ISN'T TO GET THEIR CLIENT OFF. IT'S TO MAKE THE STATE PROVE THEIR CASE AND DO THEIR DUE DILIGENCE.

IT'S TO PROVIDE A CHECK ON THE POWER OF THE STATE TO JUST THROW PEOPLE IN JAIL.

If someone "gets off" because of a technicality that means the state DID NOT DO THAT.
