In 1994, Mary Pipher published Reviving Ophelia identifying and describing this phenomenon  … and forever changing female psychology.

Mary’s powerful book squarely that adolescence is when girls realize that men have the power and that their only power comes from consenting to becoming submissive adored objects.

They do not suffer from penis envy as Freud postulated,

BUT FROM POWER ENVY.

Adolescent girls experience a conflict between their autonomous selves and their need to feminine, between their status as human beings and their vocation as females.

This tumblr account has gotten rather stale and rather quickly. It's happened so fast. My DA fandom account took 4 years to get this stale.

This isnt some dramatic goodbye announcement or anything. I just....keep typing up responses about my own personal experience relevant to the topic...and then backspace the entire thing gone. I would be wasting my breath. Nothing feels worth saying here.

Not sure im done so soon because of this particular account being over on its own entirely, or if being kinda over social interactions online entirely also contributes. Not sure if being done with my fandom blog and my crafting one is also part of feeling done here.

But....there's shit to do and i need to find the people to do things with and they arent here.

Tucker Carlson Blames Higher-Earning Women For 'Men In Decline'

"Study after study has shown that when men make less than women, women generally don't want to marry them."

[taramaclaywasaterf]

First they make a world where women are completely financially dependent on men.

Then they whine and cry about having to be the “breadwinners” and demonize us as “gold diggers.”

So we say fuck it and get jobs of our own.

Then men constantly belittle the jobs we do get. They pay us less, sexually harass and assault us, refuse to promote us, and make us jump through hoops they’d never make men jump through.

So we work our asses off, get better educations than men, and finally become the bosses. We do twice the work men do. We finally become financially independent…

And now they blame us for being more successful than them. They’re mad that we’re no longer dependent on them. They’re mad that the woman whose ass they just slapped in the conference room turned out to be their new boss and not the new secretary. Nothing we can possibly do will ever be good enough for men, because they hate us either way. So fuck that, and fuck them. I don’t give a shit if women getting better jobs make every man on earth put a fucking bullet in their skull. Good fucking riddance.

Women have options other than relying on marrying a man to survive! This is so bad for men! 

Bro. We know. We know men rigged the system against us from the start for their own benefit. That’s why we’re overcoming it. That’s feminism.

It’s especially hilarious when you keep in mind that the main artefact sumgglers around that time were ISIS, who funded their operations with that. So yeah, it’s not a stretch to say that Hobby Lobby funded ISIS

[lastvalyrian]

How did Hobby Lobby make everyone forget about that
