love can bring gods to their knees

posting on tumblr is risky because there's always a chance that your diary will undergo peer review

sex work fans love to ask you to compare prostitution to other jobs but refuse to compare it to other types of sex. if you take away someone’s food and say you’ll only give it back after a blowjob it doesn’t sound very consensual does it?

The irony that you're literally proving sex workers' point without realising. What you're describing is literally any job, you do the work to not starve.

if you are coerced into stocking shelves not to starve, it’s annoying. it you are coerced into giving blowjobs and having sex not to starve, it’s rape

Ignoring the ultimately dismissive part about "stocking shelves," like capitalism, doesn't actually destroy people's bodies and minds, I don't disagree that a lot of sex work falls under rape. But you guys don't actually care about keeping women safe. You demean the women who do sex work. If it was about protecting women, you would criticise the men and support decriminalisation rather than attacking and shaming women who do sex work.

I used to be you and you’re going to be really embarrassed when you actually listen to critics of that “industry” and understand what we actually oppose and what we want to do about it. You’ve been lied to by left wing men and that doesn’t make you a bad person but I need you to understand that being left wing doesn’t stop a man from being violently misogynistic or siding with other men who are.

Don't compare yourself to me. You're not me, as evident by the fact you listened to men. I do not. I don't need to be told that left-wing men are misogynistic. All men are.

“This collapse is a telltale sign of a problem known as publication bias. Small, early studies which found a significant sex difference were likelier to get published than research finding no male-female brain difference.”

Guys, remember when this was feminism talking point 101? Because I do. Now it’s a radical idea once again.

I really hate that for some reason the narrative became that women fought to join the workforce rather than women fought to have the same jobs for the same pay as men instead of being relegated to labour considered to be lesser and explicitly disallowed from many roles and professions. fuck off and die.

the word misandrist is so funny to me i use it so much as a joke and then i get momentarily frightened by the reminder people think it's real and thus think me calling morrigan a misandrist is a scathing critique of her character and not just shorthand for me giggling and kicking my feet and twirling my hair thinking about her

also sorry i just don't find the trope of "woman who hates men learns to love men again because she met one really sweet dude" very compelling. at best i think it's boring and eye-rolling wish fulfillment for people who never got over their lesbian crush and at worst i think it's actively and purposefully misogynistic

ESPECIALLY when its meant to be "fluffy" like sorryyyyy i just don't think Woman Learns Her Place In Society is a very cutesy sweet trope

there are places in the world today that are experiencing 40°C for the first time in recorded history. of course there's no way to know whether chucking billionaires into volcanos will appease the sun god but i feel we're doing the scientific method a disservice if we don't at least try

if you think adam driver is hot you don't need to worry about what's in the covid vaccine

"Anything is fine as long as it's legal" is not the sex positive position you think it is. Anything can be criminalised. Anything can be decriminalised.

In some places it's illegal to consensually choke your boyfriend. In other places marital rape is not a crime. Develop a moral compass instead of expecting your government to tell you what is right and wrong.

Idk, isn't saying european /= white is like saying china /= chinese? Like yeah, other peoples live there too, but it's mostly just the one, init?

'Chinese' is a nationality. There are 56 officially recognised ethnic groups within China. Europe is a continent, comprised of around 50 countries each with their own demographic makeup. So, no.

Bridgerton season 3 was really a win for the fat girls, and the gingers, and the wallflowers, and the bisexuals.

and the autistics
