Remember That “I Think Everyone Should Have The Freedom And Autonomy To Make Decisions Regarding Their

First of all, prostitution is not the oldest profession- it's the oldest form of slavery. The oldest profession is midwifery. So jot that down.

“Oh yeah, we mixed with lesbians. We always got along back then. All that division between the lesbian women and queens came after 1974 when Jane O'Leary and the radical lesbians came up. The radicals did not accept us or masculine-looking women who looked like men. And those lesbian women might not even have been trans. But we did get along famously in the early 60’s. I’ve been to many a dyke party… The lesbian community today has a lot to learn from the old ways of the lesbian community.”

Some devastating facts about abortion rights in Europe:

Polish abortion laws lay out that the rights of a foetus are more important than those of pregnant persons.

In Malta, women are sent to prison if they get an abortion.

In Austria, abortion is written into criminal code - this means it is considered a crime if it is not carried out as by the law. Doctors in Austria use papayas to learn how to perform an abortion.

Women in Hungary are forced by the law to listen to “the foetal heartbeat” before they can have an abortion.

The current law governing abortions in Germany was accepted during the Nazi regime. It is still referred to as “the Nazi law” by some movements.

In Italy, 80% of doctors refuse to perform an abortion. Plus, the government is financing movements that enter abortion clinics and harrass women who want to get an abortion.

Abortion rights in Europe are fragile. Sign our initiative to make abortion safe and accessible to everyone in the EU.

One of the best things about going to a single sex girls school was that they gave us a series of classes on female specific self defence incase we were attacked by a male.

I remembered some tips I thought would be useful for women to know

I don’t remember everything but here are some tips I do remember

- often times male perpetrators will cover their groins so don’t focus on the crotch, instead focus on places like the eyes and knees.

- if you’re really in a dire situation where a man is straddling you then try and snap his legs apart very quickly with yours, because this can disable them very quickly.

- you can also impact on the under side of the nose to kill a man if you really need to. Useful to know.

- they’ll try and disable your hands, and if this happens use your feet or your head. Women have biologically less upper body strength so these are also effective at making impact.

- avoid men doing a stupid walk with baggy trousers on. A lot of the time this means they have a knife, and if it doesn’t then they’re stupid and you should avoid them anyway.

-if you’re stabbed avoid taking the knife out, because it acts as a plug to stop you from bleeding out.

- In terms of prevention, it’s helpful to basically always keep friends around you, but also to go to establishments you know will care if you’re being hurt. I personally have been spiked before in a club that didn’t care at all, and it was horrible - do your research before you go out.

These are obviously limited tips but I enjoy this channel as a means of learning self defence - https://youtube.com/@empowered8083?si=lU2YEI89phKXgEJi

i love kink shaming actually. yes I think it’s repulsive that you like role-playing that your gf is your 5 year old daughter while you two are having sex. no i don’t think that it makes it ethical just because you didn’t actually physically rape a child. die mad about it
