this is my open letter

YaaaaaAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!

this is why Victoria is such an incredible wonderful person and feminist blogger we should all aspire to be: she’s SO well-versed in abuse tactics and is really confident in her fact-supported beliefs. it takes a lot of time and effort to get to this point! it’s really really easy to get derailed by abuse tactics like anon’s message here — they’re designed to get you to wonder whether you really ARE crazy for being bothered by all the things that maybe didn’t used to bother you before or don’t seem to bother anyone else. this is just one tactic misogynist abusers use to attack women, but it’s a frequently used one: it’s basically gaslighting, the “you can’t trust your own perceptions so you must be crazy” tactic. basically, find people like Victoria and learn from them! being reminded what abuser tactics look like and learning how to identify and shut them down is SUCH an important skill. and for me personally it’s been really important for strengthening my mental health.

Amazing.

KORN LOOKS LIKE GOTH DUCK DYNASTY

if you accidentally misgender someone, you’re probably gonna want to pretend it never happened and hope they didn’t notice. do not do this. they noticed. trans people are hyperaware of how people refer to them. they heard you and they want you to apologize. even if they act like nothing’s wrong. they’re waiting for you to apologize. just apologize

#the ‘stop being offended’ crowd are the most easily offended group of people in existence (via boobacat)

You can lead a horse to water… but you didn’t know he’d be shredding fucking waves

also to all underage girls chatting up older dudes remember tht: 1. they are manipulating u 2. yes u WILL regret it no matter what u think now 3. if a relationship needs to be a secret dont be in it 4. theres a reason they cant get girls their own age lmao

5. it’s not your fault. 6. They will make you feel special, and wanted, but after they get what they want from you they will toss you to the side. 7. You are not to blame. 8. You are important. 9. You don’t need an older man telling you things in whispers. 10. You will regret it only because he used you and lied to you because you were young. 11. They are disgusting predators. 12. You have to come to terms with that. 13. you can have a crush, it’s okay to have those feelings, but it’s a problem if he feels the same about you. 14. Adults shouldn’t have sexual relations with children at any age.

uh so I can do all of these I thought this was normal?????

i think i don’t want it anymore

as a math person i will give the D to any girl that can solve this. 

as a girl ‘math person’ i will tell you that you can’t solve this as there are no x or y values as it is only a formula and not a question plus we wouldn’t want the d from you anyway

I’ve never seen someone so efficiently shut down in my entire fucking life

Should’ve done a derivative, instead. You can literally just punch this into a calculator once you have the x and y values… Doesn’t require any math ability whatsoever.
