I Am So Not Sorry About My Vagina, And Other... →
cassket:
I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I’m really, really sorry. I’m sorry I looked at you while you were watching TV. I’m sorry I lowered the window. I’m sorry it’s not organic. I’m sorry I got you so many Christmas presents. I’m sorry I cut my hair without asking you first. I’m sorry I applied to school. I’m sorry I wrote a book and didn’t ask for your input. I’m sorry I said yes to that gig....
i’m realizing how young i am. unable to deal with my own feelings. unable to talk about how i feel. being terrified of myself and the future. i feel like a child sometimes.

I want you like a blister I’m so used to feeling the sting of it’s a shock when I reach for it weeks later and it’s healed.

– Why Women Aren’t Crazy (via lagrandefille)
I hate when people claim that women are crazy or complicated or don’t know what they want because fuck you. When a woman is vocal about her opinions, desires, feelings, you call her a bitch or crazy or hysterical. Women have been taught that the only way...

“It’s Okay to be Neither,” By Melissa Bollow Tempel
Alie arrived at our 1st-grade classroom wearing a sweatshirt with a hood. I asked her to take off her hood, and she refused. I thought she was just being difficult and ignored it. After breakfast we got in line for art, and I noticed that she still had not removed her hood. When we arrived at the art room, I said:...

Isn’t it bullshit for feminists to brush off historical concerns about feminism by spouting theory instead of practice?
Here’s how it seems to work on Tumblr:
Someone (who historically has been alienated by feminism) will talk about their totally valid concerns of…
going to the nursing home to visit my grandma on holidays is nearly always horribly upsetting. this is because my grandma has severe dementia and can barely recognize any of us and she can’t converse. if she does recognize us she thinks we’re someone else. i think most of the time she thinks i’m my mom, or her sister. when she speaks she says nonsense, a lot of vowel sounds,...

Why Immigration Is a Feminist Issue →
Thanks to pressure from women’s groups, federal immigration law actually includes exceptions for victims of violence, provided there’s “credible evidence,” typically a police report. But when laws like HB 87 deter women from calling authorities, there’s often no such record. “Even to apply for an order of protection you have to fill out a complex document,” explains Noronha. She draws from...
