Viva México y su gente!

the thing about “well-behaved women rarely make history" is that the author, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, didn’t write it about women who would be considered “badly-behaved;“ she wrote it in a book about a midwife, about women who had been largely ignored and erased from history because as a result of their “good behaviour.” So it’s not a “BAD GIRLS DO IT WELL" kind of quote; it’s a reminder to respect and pay attention to the women who go about quietly living their lives.

it’s a reminder to respect and pay attention to the women who go about quietly living their lives.

Ooohhhhhh. New take on an old quote. Great context!

Talk about the past… oops i mean present time

Niggas got so much to say about women selling pussy but they wanna dab when future said he “spent a check on that pussy”. Cardi B dance for money so she shouldn’t be a role model, but any rapper that sold drugs to get out of the bad situation they were in “did what they had to do”. Not saying any of those things is the right or wrong thing to do. I’m just saying don’t talk down on one and praise the other.

“Grimms Bad Girls and Bold Boys” by Ruth Bottingheimer is an excellent book on this

We had to read The Book of Lost Things for school and it’s Grimm level crazy 

Not only that, you’re skipping out a really important thing: the brother’s grimm got those tales from WOMEN, women were the ones who would tell these tales orally and the brother’s grimm took them, altered them to be sexist and never gave the women credit. You can read Clever Maids the Secret History The Grimm Fairytales for more info

reblogging for the excellent commentary

LMFAOOOO

BUT WHERE IS THE GIF OF RALEIGH AND PENTECOST FROM PACRIM????

This post is gold 😂😂😂

Tbh I never understood why the term “thunder thighs” is supposed to be derogatory, it sounds like I am a terrifying weather goddess

Just tell people: “Why yes, my thighs *were* blessed by an Asgardian diety. Thank you for noticing.”
