The Human Connection, A Letter to My Ex
I found something in you, a reflection of a piece of me that I’d never seen before. Sometimes I fear that I’ve lost that part of myself without you mirroring it back at me. I couldn’t tell you what it is that I saw or felt.
At first when you left I felt an enormous hole that I never thought I could ever fill again. I kept searching for you but everyone I met fell short. They weren’t you and I…

Why People End Statements With An Upward Inflection
Linguistic anthropologists originally noticed women in the U.S. end their sentences with an upward inflection. This upward inflection makes their statements sound like questions. Sometimes this upward inflection is also called “uptalk”. It’s thought that this is caused by male dominance in a patriarchal society.“If you hear it from younger women you suspect of being excessively insecure, though…

You Like Long Hair? Please Tell Me More
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been told by a man that he prefers long hair. It doesn’t just stop at the hair on my head, I had an ex tell me that he prefers vaginas completely WAXED which I was not about to do. Many men have told me they do not prefer body hair. Many men have told me they do not prefer makeup. Once upon a time I cared what people wanted me to look like so I felt trapped…

Wealth Non Distribution
There are far more poor people than rich people in the world. This isn’t news but do you ever feel brainwashed to accept that only 1% of the U.S. population deserve almost all of the wealth while most people are living paycheck to paycheck? Do the “wealthy” turn a blind eye when they see homeless people on the street? Can they not give up all their wastefulness of resources and greed to save or…

Love Lost
The further we drift apart the more my mind clings to the memories of you. The memories of you looking deep into my eyes and smiling at me, talking for hours, and telling me I’m the most beautiful woman in the world. Then I remember the way you would smile while you called yourself a “white privileged male.” All the nights I cried over you because of your selfishness. I wanted to take you back…

Faux Fur, Good or Bad?
I used to think that by wearing faux fur I was advocating inhumane practices of gaining fur for clothing. Then I decided I was advocating the murder of teddy bears. I’m vegetarian but I’m okay with hunting in the wild if the fur and meat are used. Most of my issues with meat have to do with farming practices and personal health reasons. So if that’s okay by me then teddy bear murder should be…

I Hate Bras... Let Me Tell You About My Breasts
I cannot express how much I hate bras but I’m going to try…
I used to wear padded wire bras for the longest time then one day I decided wireless bras might be more comfortable so I made the switch. They don’t sell cute wireless bras by the way so it’s a bit of a sacrifice. I realized I could take deeper breaths my breasts were less sore from being pushed on by the cups and there was less pain in…

Pro-abortion Versus Pro-choice
The word “pro” means “for”. If you are pro-abortion you are for abortions. If you are pro-choice you are for the choice to get an abortion or have the baby. So if pro-choice people have an issue with saying they are pro-abortion I would have to conclude that they are against forced abortions…because they both are about abortions but only of them one includes the word choice.
I think it’s…

Once Upon A Time There Was Freedom
I remember feeling a strong sense of freedom when around my late teens. I felt like I could go anywhere, say anything, be anyone. Somewhere along the line my freedom was taken away from me. By relationships with controlling men that lasted far too long because I was young and ignorant, by pressures from family and society to be a certain way, by abiding by the rules of work at the consequence of…

Does The Patriarchy Still Exist?
Yes it still exists in our society although not as bad as it used to be, that doesn’t make it not an issue though. Patriarchy is generally defined as an unjust social system that is oppressive to women. The concept of patriarchy often includes all the social mechanisms that reproduce and exert male dominance over women.
An example of this is that it’s more okay for a woman to dress like a man…

8 Reasons Why Men Need Feminism
I keep hearing about radical feminists who bash men. I’ve never really encountered them unless… unless I am one. I do not bash men but I do stand up for myself to anyone, male or female. This is not man bashing, this is standing up for yourself and your rights.
Feminism needs men and men need feminism. So instead of bashing men I’m going to list just a few reasons why men need feminism:
Men need…

Go Topless!
From The Go Topless Timeline:
“During the 15th century and up to the Renaissance, going topless was not uncommon for women. Showing their legs and ankles was more risque then.” Sounds like we are making forward and backwards progress.
American Indians were not raised with puritanical values and Indian women went freely topless in public in 1870.
Bathing suits were made of a long dress complete…

Women's Bodies Belong To Themselves
Writer SCOTT KAUFMAN in an article called:
GOP lawmaker: Women need man’s permission for abortion unless they can prove ‘legitimate rape’
writes “A Republican lawmaker in Missouri is introducing a bill that will require women to receive consent from the man who impregnated them before getting an abortion.”
This shocked me when I read this, does a women not own her own body to the point that she…

We Are In This Together
Politics and religion, we take one side and disregard the other. This isn’t the world I want to live in. The world I want to live in is a world where people listen to each other and love each other regardless of our opinions. They are called opinions and not facts because we do not know the answers.
Today I saw a meme that said the right and the left wing work together to lift the center up:

Children Prefer Realistic Looking Dolls
If the market is run by the consumer then why they still only selling Barbie dolls? Studies show that children prefer more realistic looking dolls.I think there’s a place in the world for models and fashionistas, I don’t want to discount them but that’s not ALL there is in the world.
Growing up my favorite barbie was a surfer Barbie. She had big flat feet, flat chested, and minimal makeup. I…

Women Are Not Property
Valuing female virginity originates from women being considered property. “Since women were (and sometimes still are) considered property, when they got married, they were passed on to their husbands from their fathers. You know the whole father-walks-his-daughter-down-the-aisle tradition? Well, it represents a transfer of property from her father to her husband. Her father was literally giving…
