anyway who else feels bad for todays pre-teen girls?? they see all these instagram models who are over 20, and they look at that and think “i need to be like her otherwise im ugly or abnormal” like?? i can only imagine how insecure these little girls must feel. just looking at these middle schoolers with perfect instagram makeup and professionally done acrylic nails?? in middle school you’re supposed to grow, that’s when you figure out who you are, you’re right in between the stages of childhood and adulthood, you’re supposed to look like a rat lmao, and pre teen girls these days arent allowed to do that and it sucks

A brilliant explanation of consent for anyone who STILL doesn’t get it

It makes me sick to my stomach that we have to explain this so thoroughly.

Even sicker that you don’t have to use a grand amount for the metaphor, not $1000, not even $20. Men can understand the store of value of $5 more than they can understand the concept of women as humans.

I think what’s saddest about the whole thing is that it always has to be a metaphor about an object for them to get it. Like the classic comparison to someone getting robbed because they were dressed rich so they were asking for it.

The only understand when women are compared to objects because that’s what they see is as.

when youre talking with somebody about things you like and you come to a disagreement, dont treat it as a debate if you fear a conflict. even if you do treat it as a sort of debate at first, if you see yourself getting a little too heated, back up and take a moment to say “this does not make them a bad person. my opinions do not make me objectively better” as long as the debate is about something ultimately inconsequential like cats vs dogs or cake vs pie or the controvery surrounding the star wars prequels.

dont say “youre wrong”, say “i see” because the amount of those debates you “win” will not be as gratifying as the amount of conversations youre able to walk away from where both parties are happy with how the conversation went.
