i can't believe she's indian and THIS is what she focuses on when there are over 98,000 schools in the country without a functioning girls toilet. or how only 13% of indian girls were aware about what menstruation is before they got their period. (it's a study from 2011 & i can't find a recent one but it definitely did not reach 100% by now.)

Ryan Gosling’s career has just been one long quest to climb the Warner Bros water tower

[notaplaceofhonour]

that man has been trying to climb this tower since he was 16. he has asked multiple times, and every time they said no, but now he’s famous enough & variety was able to convince them to do a shoot on the tower. it all led here. it was all for this.

I’m obsessed with the implication that this was a coming-of-age ritual where a boy becomes a man, like a bar mitzvah

Bad day to be a fan of Doctor Who but great day to be a fan of Steven Moffat aka the only one who seems to making it out of this show with a good reputation: vindication for ME.

when i was a kid i was so mad all the time bc i thought someday i'd have to be somebody's wife i didn't know it was optional. is everybody reminding the young girls in their lives that it's optional.

AND SO IS BEING SOMEBODY'S MOTHER‼️

[stephexmachina]

reading comprehension questions for the notes:

is wanting to be a wife and mother a requirement for being a woman?

why might OP be annoyed with replies assuming that this post is about being aroace or transmasc if a woman doesn’t want to be a wife or mother?

are there reasons unrelated to sexuality and romantic interest that might make a woman not want to be a wife or mother?

are there reasons unrelated to gender identity and expression that might make a woman not want to be a wife and mother?

core concept: what is gender essentialism?

is it gender essentialism to imply that all women inherently want to be wives and mothers? could this be what OP is critiquing?

look at the notes OP responds to. is it gender essentialism to imply that being a wife and mother is so affixed to womanhood that to not want to be those things means you’re incapable of sexual/romantic feelings, or not a woman?

what trait are you perpetuating when you assume that women who do not want to be wives and mothers must be aroace or trans? is it gender essentialism?

I haven’t posted on this blog in 6 years but felt I needed to come on here today. I feel devastated by this, as I am sure many of you are feeling this way too. Always knew this one would hurt, Rest in Peace, our Watcher ♥️
