Look, I really want to like you guys. I really do. But a lot of you say and do some things that make me want to distance myself from you as much as humanly possible.
1. Just because someone is some combination of cisgender, heterosexual, white, neurotypical and/or male does not make what they…
I want a fruit tart for my head!
Honestly, I don’t understand this at all and I will never understand this. The amount of hurt I feel just by looking at this photo just phantoms me, because what is this girl really thinking when she put on these shorts? That’s my deity, the One I take refugee when I’m experiencing sorrow in my life. He is my all, my everything and you have put him on your body? Not only that, you’re probably unclean, and very dirty and probably were even before you put the shorts onto your body. You do not wear Him, you do not eat meat when you’re wearing Him. You do not touch Him when you’re dirty. The person who’s even wearing the shorts is not Hindu, and I know this for a fact. No Hindu would ever wear this, ever. We don’t even wear Him when we worship at His alter. If Hindu’s, the followers, the believers of the faith, reject what you’re doing, why is an unbeliever doing this? Because it’s ‘trendy’? Because it’s ‘different’? That is my God. That is my religion. That is my faith. You’re not ‘cool’ or fucking ‘unique’ , you’re a fucking ignorant asshole.
^^^ Not Hindu but I had to reblog for this.
bolded mine.
This is really helpful, because sometimes I see things I think are cultural appropriation and I’m not sure how to say “Hey that’s really fucked up” or I’m not sure it’s my place to speak about it because of ignorance about the culture and not being a part of it, Anyway I saw a post last night that I’m probably gonna reblog after this post because this post says what I can’t about how fucking wrong it is….So incoming penis.
You know, I’m having trouble figuring which is more annoying - the hipster or the person whining that their life is ruined because someone wore a picture of skydaddy. Sorry, you’re going to have to learn to live in a world with people who disagree, who find your sacred myths to be silly, who don’t even care. On the other hand… that is really tacky.
Maybe they could fight with knives and bottles to sort this out?

Liberal logic: female empowerment is the ability to end the life of your child rather than give your child life.
no
female empowerment is eating the still beating heart of your newborn using chopsticks whittled from the femur of the man who got you pregnant

Sometimes I think I am a bit more scarred than I let myself think. Sometimes, like shopping late at night, I realize that I won’t go home to screaming, broken plates and someone threatening suicide. It’s been twelve years since I left home and I’m still moved to tears by the grace of everyday life.
Damn right…
*COUGH* Anorexia and cosmetic surgery are both OLD AS BALLS.
Sorry women, if you don’t wake up looking like Marilyn Monroe, you can’t win.
Plastic surgery has been around since at least 800 BCE. If the author of this picture needed to be a misogynist troll, they could have at least done some fact-checking first.

I am sick of men being told that my entire existence as a woman is predicated around their desires, and sick of them feeling like special snowflakes and genuine good-guys when they stick a new set of standards on me, just because those standards differ from the more dominant ones.
You’re not a…

It’s been almost a year and a half since I visited the Jenny McCarthy Body Count. In that time, it looks like over 250 unnecessary vaccine-preventable deaths and over 20,000 illnesses have occurred because of Jenny and her ilk spreading brain-meltingly frustrating misinformation about the safety of vaccines.
Sure, she’s not the only guilty one, but she’s the leader of a dangerous movement that’s still quite active today.
This from a woman whose website has the following headline up today: 21 Benefits of Enzymes and Why You Need Them … oh I dunno, maybe to complete basic biological functions and literally BE ALIVE?!?!
A society that cares about science more will be a society that cares less about Jenny McCarthy. Keep up the good fight, and keep sharing science with your friends. Someone’s life may depend on it.
