the relatively small-fry feminist issue that upsets me the most is that girls hardly use parks, and in every survey and study, they cite boys as the reason. skate parks, basketball courts, soccer fields, they’re overwhelmingly male dominated starting at a very young age. girls get less physical activity, get out of the house less, and participate in less play, because as soon as those spaces have boys in them, girls are either pushed out, or stop using them before they can be.
and it’s a minority of landscape architects who factor this in when designing new parks. are they well lit? are the bathrooms clean and in a busy space? do they have walking trails, roller skating loops, bike paths, rather than only organized courts? are those paths wide enough to accommodate groups? are there multiple courts/play areas, sectioned off from each other? are there lit, covered seating areas, especially picnic tables or other group seating?
in an ideal world, girls would feel just as welcome jumping into a pick-up game as boys, would be able to claim a soccer field with their friends and not worry it would be overtaken or they would be jeered at, would feel free to take up hobbies like skateboarding and go to the park on their own. but they don’t. we’re not in that world. claiming a mixed sex space is an equal one is a lie, for now. we have to meet girls where they are.
look at my pokie boo acting like the thermostat is a nuclear weapon with all those gloves(it is, to him but still funny as fuck)
maybe maybe don't hurt the mortals? let them experience life long love? that would be funny
Achilles is a demigod who went on a rampage, wounded a minor river god into retreating & destroyed one of Troy's most prominent soldiers after suffering the grief of being away from Patroclus.
Diomedes is a human who managed to wound Ares & Aphrodite and he didn't do it for any personal reasons.
And now we have Odysseus, a human who managed to torture Poseidon into begging after suffering the grief of losing his crew, friends, and family & being away from his son and wife.
You'd think the gods would notice a pattern by now.
like if you weren't loved properly as a baby can you ever be fixed. i feel like an important part of my brain never got watered it didn't soak deep enough. idk how people just go around doing what they do so easily and im just pretending to understand but feeling nothing but overwhelming pain
This comment is about JK Rowling
I cannot take these people seriously. You expect me to believe out of all the men murdering, raping, trafficking, killing children, hoarding resources, a woman with opinions you don't like is the most dangerous person on the planet??? Please be fr
does anybody else recite some *fav* fic names randomly in the day? like I'll be out for lunch break and mutter to myself "doomed, one day I'll watch as you are leaving" while opening my sandwich.the usuals are like this: it used to be yours; your shield and sword, your claws and venom darling; then you think again; this isn't gonna fucking work you inbreed ;I know all sorts of thing I don't believe in... etc etc
A woman: So I recently developed ovarian cancer & I could sure use someone to talk to about it
Trancels on Tumblr: Um this is kinda problematic sweetie. Trans women dont have ovaries & ur sure being cissexist when u bring them up. Bringing up the cancer u have in an organ that’s exclusive to females is transphobic & by trying to discuss a womens’ issue youre basically saying you want all trans women to DIE, so uh…
I remember bits and pieces, but not the whole night.
Burning Days, 2022 dir. Emin Alper
I'd love to see feminists placing women in the role of "default human" from now on as a way of centering them, using feminine pronouns when speaking of people generally. Men have done this for themselves for more than long enough. I want to take maleness out of our language as much as possible, at least in English.
"To each their own" >>> "To each her own"
"Every person should be able to do what he wants" >>> "Every person should be able to do what she wants"
"God in His infinite wisdom..." >>> "God in Her infinite wisdom..."
Etc.
Just speak from the female experience as much as possible. Wash maleness out of your speech, and you'll wash it gradually out of your way of thinking.
need something very lesbian to happen to me this December
I’m just saying that sapphic Destiel would have been so powerful. Not that they’re not powerful the way they are, but can you imagine???
I feel like I make it very obvious that I’m a lesbian sometimes. 🫣
la tristesse durera toujours. being a fujoshi is payback for all of the sexualization our sisterhood faces daily
