head on over to my sideblog for all my Witcher and Star Wars crack and fic. I'm a semi-professional biscuit connoisseur, book worm, feminist, and scotch lover. I'm also a huge dork.
Menstrual Munchies released albums like "6 Ways of Female Butchery" with cover art showing the rape and mutilation of female bodies.
Tl;dr despite apparently being “anti fascist” the Ohio shooter took part in a music scene known for shockingly violent, sexually degrading hate speech against women. It’s “meant to be shocking” but who can be shocked anymore? I’m so fucking tired.
“I feel shitty having let him be in the band, doing those lyrics,” Creekbaum said. “Because I know, like, whereas I saw it as a joke — like, ‘Let’s play this and we’ll shock some people,’ and then the people that we know laugh — he didn’t see it as a joke. He was like, ‘Fuck, yeah. We’re gonna do this.’”
Yes, yes, because as we all know singing about raping and killing women is all just a joke to men!
“It’s just the music we love, you know, like, it’s fun to play. It’s energetic and there’s nothing else like it. So we play it,” Walton, 29, said. “And then we get people like this, who, you know, are fucking sick in the head, who get into our scene and ended up killing nine people and almost, you know, putting a bad name on our scene. And that’s not fair for the rest of us.”
You’re fucking sick in the head too, dude!

I had to stop reading after this, because the cognitive dissonance of the men interviewed in this article is fucking amazing. These are men, who get together regularly to play music, which glorifies the rape and murder of female people. Their bands have names like: “Necro Cannibal Ass Grinder”, “Bill Nye da Nazi Spy”, “Cunt Torch” and “Menstrual Munchies” - so they aren’t only sexist, but racist and antisemitic too - yet they’re literally acting like they’re the fucking victims here. Like, yeah, we sing about hate crimes against women, but we’re TOTALLY AND ABSOLUTELY shocked that this mass shooting happened.
These misogynistic fuck faces are too fucking stupid to remember that media is about communicating something. If the message you’re communicating is that it’s fun and sexy for women to be raped and murdered, you’re going to attract people who genuinely believe that message.
I am fucking sick to death of people forgetting that the purpose of media is to portray something and that when you’re portraying something, obviously it means something to your audience and the people participating in the portrayal. What the fuck is the purpose of any art if not to communicate something? 
was just asked to “use the correct pronouns” for ezra miller- a literal child groomer who abducted an indigenous teenager he’s known since she was 12
this situation doesn’t fall into a long historical pattern until we acknowledge the maleness of the abuser and the femaleness of the abused. only if we acknowledge oppression can we work for change (not to mention the higher risks of male violence to indigenous women)
Anyone seeing this , tag it as reference or something similar, in case anyone ever dares to say porn is perfectly healthy or that there is nothing wrong with it
“Hardcore” and “punish” is an actual genre of porn where men mangle, desecrate, torture, brutalize, induce trauma and mental breakdowns in women on camera to target market depraved and deranged men for monetary gain.
This is the most grisly and malicious crime men commit against women and its permitted to exist! Its socially acceptable! Hell Its even promoted by sex pozzies, kinksters, sex column advisers, porn producers and consumers, “sex worker” advocates! Watching porn is lauded as “progressive” to women!!
Misogynist propoganda is very real and festering at a dismal rate. #end the demand #boycott porn
“A child who’s told she has to do more housework than her brother because she’s a girl, or that she can’t be an astronaut when she grows up because she’s a girl, is likely to say “that’s not fair!” A boy who is told he cannot play with dolls because he’s a boy, or that he cannot be a secretary when he grows up, may find that unfair as well. But the boy who is told he can’t be a nurse is being told that he is too good to be a nurse. The girl, on the other hand, is essentially being told that she is not good enough to be a doctor.”
This is the most libfem thing I've ever seen. Instead of giving homeless women nutritious food, water, blankets, clothing, personal hygiene products, or other necessities, this charity gives them makeup.
Liberal feminists don’t think broad context, maslowes hierarchy, bigger picture, they don’t put themselves in anyone else’s shoes. They just think everyone will want and need what they want.
Backtracking by the Taliban means female students above the sixth grade will not be able to attend school.
The Taliban administration in Afghanistan has announced that girls’ high schools will be closed, hours after they reopened for the first time in nearly seven months.
The backtracking by the Taliban means female students above the sixth grade will not be able to attend school.
A Ministry of Education notice said on Wednesday that schools for girls would be closed until a plan was drawn up in accordance with Islamic law and Afghan culture, according to Bakhtar News Agency, a government news agency.
“We inform all girls high schools and those schools that are having female students above class six that they are off until the next order,” said the notice.
“Yes, it’s true,” Taliban spokesman Inamullah Samangani told AFP when asked to confirm reports that girls had been ordered home.
He would not immediately explain the reasoning, while education ministry spokesman Aziz Ahmad Rayan said: “We are not allowed to comment on this.”
“It’s very disappointing that girls, who were waiting for this day, made to return from school. It shows that Taliban are not reliable and cannot fulfill their promises,” Shukria Barakzai, an Afghan politician and journalist based in London.
“It means that secondary and high schools are banned for girls. Even primary schools are not open across the country. Most of the provinces do not have girls’ primary schools,” Barakzai told Al Jazeera from London.
“It shows that the Taliban is exactly the same as before – they are against girls’ education.”
A shortage of teachers
The education ministry acknowledged authorities faced a shortage of teachers – with many among the tens of thousands of people who fled the country as the Taliban swept to power after the West-backed government of President Ashraf Ghani collapsed.
“We need thousands of teachers and to solve this problem we are trying to hire new teachers on a temporary basis,” the spokesman said.
The Ministry of Education had announced last week that schools for all students, including girls, would open around the country on Wednesday – the first day of Afghanistan’s new school year – after months of restrictions on education for high school-aged girls.
On Tuesday evening a ministry spokesman released a video congratulating all students on their return to class.
An AFP team was filming at Zarghona High School in the capital, Kabul, when a teacher entered and said the class was over.
Crestfallen students, back at school for the first time since the Taliban seized power in August last year, tearfully packed up their belongings and filed out.
“I see my students crying and reluctant to leave classes,” said Palwasha, a teacher at Omra Khan girls’ school in Kabul.
“It is very painful to see your students crying.”
“We all got disappointed and we all became totally hopeless when the principal told us, she was also crying,” said a student, who was not named for security reasons.
Female education
The last time the Taliban ruled Afghanistan, from 1996 to 2001, it banned female education and most female employment. But after returning to power in August the group has promised opportunities for girls’ education and employment.
The international community has made the education of girls a key demand for any future recognition of the Taliban administration, which took over the country in August as foreign forces withdrew.
United Nations envoy Deborah Lyons called reports of the closure “disturbing”.
“If true, what could possibly be the reason?” she tweeted.
The Norwegian Refugee Council expressed ‘deep concerns’ against the government announcement.
“We expect the Taliban government to allow all girls and boys across the whole country to resume their complete education cycle, in line with earlier public assurances they have given,” Jan Egeland, the NRC Secretary-General, said in a statement on Wednesday.
When the Taliban took over last August, schools were closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but only boys and younger girls were allowed to resume classes two months later.
The Taliban had insisted they wanted to ensure schools for girls aged 12 to 19 were segregated and would operate according to Islamic principles.
The Taliban have imposed a slew of restrictions on women, effectively banning them from many government jobs, policing what they wear and preventing them from travelling outside of their cities alone.
Even if schools do reopen fully, barriers to girls returning to education remain, with many families suspicious of the Taliban and reluctant to allow their daughters outside.
Others see little point in girls learning at all.
“Those girls who have finished their education have ended up sitting at home and their future is uncertain,” said Heela Haya, 20, from Kandahar, who has decided to quit school.
“What will be our future?”
Human Rights Watch also raised the issue of the few avenues girls are given to apply their education.
“Why would you and your family make huge sacrifices for you to study if you can never have the career you dreamed of?” said Sahar Fetrat, an assistant researcher with the group.
My ultimate pet peeve is women sexualising themselves being defended as “she’s embracing her sexuality”. It could not be more removed from her sexuality. Her sexuality is what she finds attractive. Making yourself more attractive to men is embracing MEN’S sexuality.
I hate the artistic trope where a woman's face is covered. Maybe her head is a plant, or a star, or she's just decapitated. Maybe she has a full body or just a naked torso. Either way it's way too prevalent. Always a young woman, always beautiful. And faceless. It's so dehumanizing.
Trauma bonding is a bond that develops when two people undergo intense, risky emotional experiences together. In the context of an abusive relationship, this bond is strengthened due to the heightened intimacy and danger.
Similar to the way Stockholm Syndrome manifests, the abuse victim bonds with his or her abuser as both the source of terror and comfort in an attempt to survive the tumultuous relationship.
As a result, abuse victims feel a misplaced, unshakeable sense of loyalty and devotion to their abusers, which to an outsider may appear nonsensical.
The Role of Intermittent Reinforcement in Trauma Bonding
Intermittent reinforcement (in the context of psychological abuse) is a pattern of cruel, callous treatment mixed in with random bursts of affection.
The abuser hands out “rewards” such as affection, a compliment, or gifts sporadically and unpredictably throughout the abuse cycle.
Think of the violent husband who gives his wife flowers after assaulting her, or the kind words an abusive mother gives to her child after a particularly harsh silent treatment.
Intermittent reinforcement causes the victim to perpetually seek the abuser’s approval while settling for the crumbs of their occasional positive behavior, in the hopes that the abuser will return to the honeymoon phase of the relationship.
Like a gambler at a slot machine, victims are unwittingly “hooked” to play the game for a potential win, despite the massive losses.
The Biochemical Element
When oxytocin, serotonin, dopamine, cortisol, and adrenaline are involved, the abusive nature of the relationship can actually strengthen, rather than dampen, the bond of the relationship in the brain.
