My brother donated blood in my place today, since I cannot donate.

Any gay or bisexual man that has had intimate contact with another man since 1977 is BANNED from donating blood, presumably due to the fear of blood-borne illnesses that are often falsely associated with the LGBT+ community.

Any and all blood donated is tested and screened thoroughly, so even if this ban held merit, it would serve no purpose.

The ban on gay blood is discriminatory and unnecessary.

End the stigma.

Ask the White House to lift this harmful ban by signing THIS PETITION.

Reblogging this again because it’s so important.

1. Make a list of everything you’re thankful for – and try to find some memories that make you smile. There’s nothing like some humour for changing how you feel.

2. Decide to do some fun things with your friends. Although it might be tempting to stay home alone, and to have a bubble bath, or to...

Rape Culture? What is this “Rape Culture” you speak of? Seriously though, this is terrifying. God forbid I wear a skirt outside — I’m just ASKING   to be raped if I do that.

[topdennis]

The 58% statistic actually terrifies me more than any other. Suddenly change the word and you don’t care? 

No one will ever be able to convince me that words hold no power.

this makes me sick to my stomach with anger and fear

[lifeinthemediumfastlane-deactiv]

I’m waiting for to see: “It’s only 83.5%, not all men are like that”

[thesocratease-deactivated201510]

Wait, so only 16.5% of men know that rape is wrong and that no one ever deserves to be raped?

THAT is terrifying.

This is something that people do not understand. I am nonbinary, and I sometimes have resentment toward my boobs because of the way people perceive me. My entire life, I went out of my way, with out question, to protect myself from sexual menace. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I allowed myself to wear tank tops in public.

When I thought about my chest tattoo, I had to think of protecting myself and how much harder it would be. My life decision that should effect no one fucking else.

This is bullshit that really has to stop. People should not have to compensate for someone else’s lack of control and empathy.

1. Because a woman brought into this world will inevitably be given pepper spray “just in case.” 2. Because by sixteen, a young girl knows how to avoid being sexually assaulted, while a boy of the same age does not fear sexual assault in the slightest. 3. Because a girl who mocks men is a bitch, and a boy who mocks women is joking. 4. Because a girl who has sex is a slut, and a boy who has sex is a man. 5. Because in a murder, the killer is at fault, but the blame of rape is often put on the victim. 6. Because we teach girls how not to get raped instead of teaching anyone simply not to rape. 7. Because a woman should put more clothes on if her outfit makes a man uncomfortable, because his self control is her responsibility. 8. Because feminists just need to chill out. 9. Because a 22 year old sex-obsessed virgin can murder 7 people, and the problem is that someone should’ve just slept with him. 10. Because not all men are predators, but yes, all women are prey. There’s a fucking womanifesto for you.

I saw a news report about this on T.V., she was a straight A Student who had perfect attendance and everything. Everyone loved and respected her for her skills, but when she started this experiment and people thought she was pregnant, they started treating her like garbage. Even her teachers started looking down on her like she was scum of the earth. The only people who knew she was doing this as an experiment were her school principal, her health care teacher, her boyfriend, and her mother. Her own siblings thought she was pregnant! I mean even her friends turned on her, it was horrid. Very very sad, and as soon as she revealed during an assembly that the pregnancy was false, a lot of people were in shock as she brought up all the horrible things they said and did to her because they thought she was pregnant. The reason for the experiment was to see how people would react and treat her if they thought she was pregnant, as opposed as to treating her as the straight A “Perfect” student they usually did. And it proved that people were horrible scumbags to her as soon as they thought she was.
