“Newsflash, I have no plan. Everything I’ve done in the past five, maybe eight, years has been me making stuff up as I go along.”

every single negative stereotype about women was dreamt up by men who were projecting. fight me about it.

[bimbocracy]

“women can’t drive”

It is so well known that women are better and safer drivers than men that OUR CAR INSURANCE RATES ARE LOWER. Women get into fewer accidents, get fewer DUIs, and receive fewer speeding tickets than men.

“women never shut up”

Several scientific studies have shown that not only do men talk more than women, they also think that women have been talking for much longer than they actually have. Men interrupt and talk over women, dominate conversations, and still think women talk too much.

“women are shallow”

Lol next

“my wife is my ball and chain lmao”

Multiple studies have shown that marriage between men and women: Increases male lifespan, decreases female lifespan Decreases male depression rates, increases female depression rates Decreases male stress levels, increases female stress levels Increases male health and happiness, decreases female health and happiness Increases a man’s chance of getting a raise or promotion, decreases a woman’s chances of getting a raise or promotion

“women are too emotional”

Men love to say this about women after hurting them, in order to shift the blame and dismiss their feelings in one go. In reality, women are taught to hold our tongues and control ourselves quite literally from birth. We’re taught to put men’s needs and wants ahead of our own emotions regardless of the personal cost. Men are taught to do more or less whatever the fuck they want to women. Men take their emotions out on women while women are expected to shove theirs down.

I could go on and on but I don’t really think I need to.

“Dear Samantha, I’m sorry we have to get a divorce. I know that seems like an odd way to start a love letter but let me explain: it’s not you. It sure as hell isn’t me. It’s just human beings don’t love as well as insects do. I love you… far too much to let what we have be ruined by the failings of our species. I saw the way you looked at the waiter last night. I know you would never DO anything, you never do but… I saw the way you looked at the waiter last night. Did you know that when a female fly accepts the pheromones put off by a male fly, it re-writes her brain, destroys the receptors that receive pheromones, sensing the change, the male fly does the same: when two flies love each other they do it so hard, they will never love anything else ever again. If either one of them dies before procreation can happen both sets of genetic code are lost forever. Now that… is dedication. After Elizabeth and I broke up, we spent three days dividing everything we had bought together - like if I knew what pots were mine - like if I knew which drapes were mine - somehow the pain would go away. This is not true. After two praying mantises mate, the nervous system of the male begins to shut down. While he still has control over his motor functions he flops onto his back, exposing his soft underbelly up to his lover like a gift. She then proceeds to lovingly dice him into tiny cubes, spooning every morsel into her mouth. She wastes nothing. Even the exoskeleton goes. She does this so that once their children are born she has something to regurgitate to feed them. Now that… is selflessness. I could never do that for you. So I have a new plan: I’m gonna leave you now. I’m gonna spend the rest of my life committing petty injustices, I hope you do the same. I will jay walk at every opportunity, I will steal things i could easily afford, I will be rude to strangers, I hope you do the same. I hope reincarnation is real, I hope our petty crimes are enough to cause us to be reborn as lesser creatures, I hope we are reborn as flies, so that we can love each other as hard as we were meant to.”

— Jared Singer, “An Entomologist’s Last Love Letter”

a good gender neutral term to use is “fool”

It’s so difficult to describe depression to someone who’s never been there, because it’s not sadness. I know sadness. Sadness is to cry and to feel. But it’s that cold absence of feeling— that really hollowed-out feeling.

Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.

She’s taken such good care of me since I got bad; I owe her everything and I love her and I tell her these days, although every time I say it, it gets a little diluted. I think you run out of I love yous.
