So today Angelina Jolie had double mastectomy, which is the removal of one’s breasts, to prevent Breast cancer. So instead of praising Angelina on her bravery, men on Twitter decided to ridicule her, even calling her stupid for removing her breasts. For those of you on Tumblr that are attacking Feminists about being delusional about sexism against women and misogyny here’s your fucking proof that sexism and misogyny exists.
Not even kidding a little bit. In many ways Ariel Castro represents the ideal Republican. Think I’m exaggerating? Forget for a moment about the misogynistic Republican fixation on redefining rape as “legitimate rape” or “honest rape” or “forcible rape” and ignore for a second about how Republicans repeatedly voted against the Violence Against Women Act… just read ➤this
Charles Ramsey, keepin’ it real in Cleveland
In honor of Mr. Ramsey’s frankness, let’s address some related, underlying issues Ramsey’s statement seems to hint at:
The story is still fluid and new details are certain to emerge, but it doesn’t appear to be quite too early to think that the Cleveland PD may be guilty of marginalizing the very citizens they’re sworn to serve and protect. Particularly if those citizens happen to be female or poor or not white
kill me. kill me right now.
This makes me really angry

Little girl said to have inappropriate clothing
A Henry County woman is furious after being called out for sending her six-year-old kindergartener to school in what officials say was inappropriate.
Audrey Hightower tells Channel 2 Action News an assistant principal from Tussahaw Elementary called her on Tuesday complaining of her daughter’s Little Kitty dress saying it was too short or may be showing too much skin.
I don’t see anything inappropriate. It’s just ridiculous.
white people have a sickness
…………
i can’t…
And they wonder why we don’t like them.
Also, this baby looks fine. Completely appropriate for a child her age. She has on tights, for Christ’s sake. The skin they apparently see too much of is her hands and her face. Jesus.
from the article:
“A statement from the school said the clothing was deemed inappropriate based on the way it was being worn and it was becoming a distraction.”
this is why fuck your slutwalk. b/c some of us are seen as sluts no matter HOW we’re dressed or HOW young we are.
and that doesn’t even make sense unless she’s walking around with the dress over her head all damn day
ridiculous
Are you fucking kidding me, America? SHE’S FUCKING SIX.
There is nothing about this dress that is distracting.
What kills me is that if her mother is anything like mine, she probably got her dressed and said, “Here, baby, put on these tights so we can make sure you’re all covered up. Now make sure you’re being careful when you play, I don’t wanna get no call from the school telling me some little boy done seen your panties.”
And I bet you a dollar this little girl has shorts on under the skirt and over the tights, too.
The two women in the background are showing more skin than this baby is.
Isn’t that ridiculous?
Anything, no matter how outrageous, to further criminalize black children and sexualize little black girls
Being a good person and being a “nice guy”: Know the difference.

there are plenty of guys out there who are socially awkward and may inadvertently trigger a woman’s spider-sense without intending to cause offense. The problem is that when it’s pointed out to them that the way that they’re behaving is creeping people out, a lot of guys will automatically default to “well, it’s not fair, I shouldn’t have to change who I am/my behavior.” They don’t want to take the time to learn how to read social cues or moderate the way they act. Why? Because, once again, they feel that they’re entitled to what they want and it’s the woman’s fault for keeping them from what they want. Why take responsibility for your actions when you can put the onus on women by shouting “Creep shaming!” as a way to shut her up?
The truly insidious thing about creep shaming and how it relates to misplaced senses of entitlement is the fact that creep shaming goes beyond a man’s right of access to any woman he desires; it also means that he is entitled to his comfort above hers. Creep shaming is all about telling a woman that not only does she not have a right to decide who she talks to, but she doesn’t have a right to how she feels. This isn’t about discriminating against those who need to work on their social calibration, this is about telling women that their desire to be safe is less important than a man’s right to hit on her.
Sometimes the internet gets it really right —especially 4. 5. and 6. (Humanists/Egalitarians should read 6. closely - re: “whining”)
