Dear females of all ages,

Here is living proof that you don’t have to dress like a desperate, cheap whore to look pretty and utterly beautiful (Note: I am not calling all girls whores. I am only saying that some dress LIKE whores…I have…

But ultimately, slutty or modest, know that your only worth is your perceived attractiveness through the eyes of some male stranger.

Married to the Sea pretty much nailed it.

The Single Stupidest Thing Any Nice Guy Has Ever Written

downlo:

When the Feminists came for the Rapists,
I remained silent;
I was not a Rapist.

When they locked up the stalkers,
I remained silent;
I was not a stalker.

When they came for the Players,
I did not speak out;
I was not a Player.

When they came for the men who they got bored of,
I remained silent;
I wasn’t some one they were bored of yet.

When they came for me, the nice guy,
there was no one left to speak out.

—From a Tumblr I won’t link here because it is so damned stupid.

This is adapted from a piece about Nazis, right? Sorry, Nice Guys (TM): you are not as persecuted as the Jews in Europe under Hitler. I know. Shocker. Someone had to tell you.

Ummm. so all you Nice Guys (TM) better speak out on behalf of the rapists? Whut?

A new study published in the Harvard Business Review found that even though pink is the colour of the ribbons people wear in order to cure breast cancer, women actually hate it…because it is a ‘gender cue’ that triggers a ‘defensive response’.

Yeah, you know why? Because women don’t enjoy being peddled products that stereotypically assume that just because we have ovaries, we love all things pink, feminine and fluffy. Take note Molson!

I knew my position on pink was statistically defensible.
(FYI, Molson is releasing pink beer aimed at women.)

Oh man. Pink shit sort of makes me rage! I never really understood why. When I was little, i lurrrrved pink, but then my sister said that pink was her favourite colour, and I would have to pick a new one :(

This weekend I was told a story which, although I’m kind of ashamed to admit it, because holy shit is it ever obvious, is kind of blowing my mind.

A friend of a friend won a free consultation with Clinton Kelly of What Not To Wear, and she was very excited, because she has a plus-size body, and…

I really hate this comparison. They are not the same thing at all.

And being uncomfortable because a woman is breastfeeding is different than being uncomfortable because someone showed you their genitals.

The answer is that yes, you can pee in public as soon as your urine can nutritionally sustain infants. 

^^^

Also, not to put too fine a point on it, I’m pretty sure you aren’t allowed to whip out your breasts in public and spray down the pavement with milk. Regardless of how natural they are, we have a general aversion to bodily fluids being all up in our public spaces. Some might say rightly so. Nature can be kind of a jerk sometimes, what with all the public health concerns it can cause.

LOL. I have to say, I’ve never seen a breastfeeding person put milk anywhere other than into their infant’s mouth. Most breastfeeding people know that their milk is very precious, for it’s nutritional value, and because there is usually just enough for the baby and not much more… so no, they don’t tend to spray it on walls or footpaths.

Giving birth, however, is another matter. Clearly it should only be done in toilets.

I reckon just because ole mate Brian has never seen someone give birth in a public park, that doesn’t mean it’s never happened. But while we’re at it, I *have* seen someone urinate in a public park… so… I’m not really sure what is going on with his whole comment. Hmm.
