When someone is going to have a baby and they’re like “I’m hoping for a girl.” I’m like ‘Aw, cute.’ but when someone says they hope it is a boy, my hackles raise and I’m like ‘Hmm. Elaborate on that. What is the reasoning behind that?’ Like, I think baby gender reveal culture is a bit silly but I understand it is mostly in good fun. Until someone gets mad they’re not having a son to ‘carry on the family name’ or whatever. That is frankly disgusting. But is is really interesting how people who want a daughter will be like ‘I hope it is a baby girl so I can dress her in these cute pink baby outfits.’ and people who want a son often want a son for reasons that are extremely misogynistic and dehumanizing.

Does anyone else ever have a sort of phantom physical sense when there's something ready to paste in the clipboard. It feels like I've got something in my right hand and when I click ctrl-v I put it down.

my least favorite literary smut turn of phrase is when a guy is like “im gonna ruin this pussy” “im gonna wreck this pussy for anyone else” like stop.. thats not yours…!

Scrolled past this agakn and just can't get over how much I love it. We need to make things beautiful again and this is such a wonderful example. The beadwork on the wires of a utitarian object, contrasted with the grey concrete.
