I know it’s hard cause Sony owns alot of entertainment but we have to be strong for Kesha and for other girls getting harassed in the music industry.

A lot Of My favorite songs, movies, and musicians are with Sony. Just because they are with Sony doesnt mean they are bad, but by supporting anything Sony you are putting money in the hand of people who think it’s okay to be silence about Women’s issues and rape in the industry.

Watch: Tia Mowry went off on body/pregnancy shamers and made a really great point in the process.

The man who wrote the pro-rape article is planning a worldwide anti-woman event in over 43 countries! I attached the article and the list. PLEASE PLEASE check your city and be careful. I can’t believe in 2016 this is real.

7 Badass Body-Positive Models Who Are Changing The Fashion Industry

Barbie just got an awesome body-positive makeover

For more than two decades, the iconic red-soled Christian Louboutin heels have taken women to new heights. Although the same couldn’t be said about its efforts to bring diversity into the new fashion industry. Yet in recent years, the shoe company has attempted to remedy this. First, by introducing a line of nude heels to match not just pale, Caucasian skin, but a wide-range of ethnicities and shades. And now, the brand has featured a plus size model, Clementine Desseaux, on its social media channels. 

Posted on Thursday, the 15 second video depicts the size 12/14 beauty wearing Christian Louboutin’s Silky Satin Lip Colour Rouge Louboutin. According to a representative for the brand, the model was gifted a lipstick and she was so excited that she posted the clip of her smiling and twirling on her personal Instagram. The @LouboutinWorld handle loved the clip and reposted it, much like they do with many other Instagram-users content. 

In response, Desseaux remarked that “such a big French brand using a curvier girl for her face is a big step.” She added, “Not for curvy women, not for freckles, just for women. The beauty norm is changing and differences that used to be weaknesses are now turning into strengths.“ 

Although Desseaux’s not officially being contracted by the company, her appreciation for the recognition is deeply personal. Three years ago, she moved from Paris to New York because she couldn’t find modeling work in France due to her size. “Being curvy and freckly was never easy back when I was in France,” Desseaux, who will appear in the forthcoming documentary Straight/Curve, explained. “Now beauty is changing and brands are putting girls that are different in the spotlight. They are opening up to all the beauty that is in the world and not only the European, blond, skinny, white woman type." 

The fact that a company based in the European country, a place that has historically idealized and perpetuated the stick-thin woman and has also been one of the slowest nations to adopt and accept women of varying sizes in the fashion industry, did this is progress. “France has always been late in terms of diversity but this is one little step forward,” Desseaux said. “I am hoping that more little steps will follow." 

Like, when you get right down to it, human sexual dimorphism is really pretty damn subtle. Like, different genitals, different average breast sizes, different average hip width, slightly different average muscle mass. All fairly subtle differences, especially compared to the sexual dimorphism we see in species like peafowl or angler fish or black widow spiders. Like nature is full of species with HUGELY more distinguished sexual dimorphism than humans. Ours is pretty low key (and full of exceptions.) 

But SO many gender roles seem really focused on highlighting and increasing sexual dimorphism as much as possible. “Traditional” make up and hair length and clothing all make it easier to distinguish those who identify as men and women by artificially increasing our sexual dimorphism (and those who fail to adequately meet those standards are often not treated well.)  

Like, that’s weird right? To try to make men and women as different as possible, to force a gender binary as strongly as possible. 

A important perspective to consider. The 3% statistic (the portion of PP’s services that include abortion) is used to justify the clinics, but we shouldn’t have to rely on other health services to legitimize the work this organization does.
