They’ve been doing the “No More” campaign during games but the way they’ve been doing it has just been awkward and weird but THIS is how you represent how its hard to talk about it. 

[sbaorraehd]

This isn’t just a representation, this was an actual phone call a woman made. THAT is how you know how hard it is to talk about.

A male author can write about unlikable male characters. They’re called anti-heroes and it’s called a novel.

Gillian Flynn on people calling her writing misogynistic in Glamour magazine, the October 2014 issue. The level of sass and taking no shit from both her and Rosamund Pike-who Flynn interviews in this article-is strong and gives me life.  (via oscarisaaced)

“never again”

This image is one of the most powerful pro-choice images I’ve ever seen. When I saw it in the newspaper I immediately cut it out and hung it on my wall.

This is not my image. I’m using it with permission from Arthur Newspaper.

The sad part is a lot of people don’t even understand what the hanger represents. Awful.

abortions will always occur, let’s make them as safe as possible.

[lacigreen]

hundreds of thousands of women died and continue to die due to no access to safe and legal abortion care.  abortion access is a life or death issue.

You must learn her. You must know the reason why she is silent. You must trace her weakest spots. You must write to her. You must remind her that you are there. You must know how long it takes for her to give up. You must be there to hold her when she is about to. You must love her because many have tried and failed. And she wants to know that she is worthy to be loved, that she is worthy to be kept. And, this is how you keep her.

being born in the 90s is really weird and cool because we were the first generation to be introduced to technology but we still had a childhood playing outside on our bicycles like my whole street used to be filled with kids doing kart wheels and playing together and i know i sound like a grandma like i love internet and iphones but idk when i look at my niece i think we were the last

Gather round kids while I explain this manipulation tactic that men perpetually try to use and why it’s bullshit.

If someone is openly showing interest in you by making disparaging or disappointed comments about your age, they’re trying to put you on the defensive. This guy wants me to try to quell his discomfort, to bring up that I’m only a month shy of 20, etc. - he wants me to try to prove myself to him, that I’m mature and adult enough for a man like him.

His goal is to establish a power imbalance right off the bat. If we were to date, I would constantly be on the defensive, constantly striving to be an equal, constantly trying to prove my “adult” credentials. Anything he says or does or wants from this point on that I object to would just be seen as a strike against my age, proof that he was right and that I’m not mature enough for him. This is how SO MANY men pressure younger individuals (primarily women and girls) into situations and relationships they aren’t comfortable with. If he truly thought I was too young for him, he wouldn’t have messaged me. This is a very calculated move, and it’s fucking gross.

Adult relationships with age gaps are completely fine, but only if all parties view each other as equals. If someone is trying to set you up in a way that ensures that’s never a possibility, run far away.

Reblogged for the commentary.

[fuckyeahsexeducation]

This is really important because I think that educating about power imbalances and how to spot that manipulation is a lot better than saying “young people don’t date older people”. I had people use this kind of tactic on me when I was 18/19 as well and it is really damaging.

[rubyreed]

The same goes for basically any message that begins with a negative statement about you. Just stay away from these guys. They’re using tactics they learned from “pickup artists” and they’re basically just manipulative man-babies.
