Tumblr: America needs to stop being racist and sexist, pay more attention to women and PoC ok
CBS: Hey guys guess what we decided Watson should be played by a Taiwanese, female actress in our version of Sherlock Holmes
Tumblr: NOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT HOW DARE YOU I AM BOYCOTTING YOUR SHOW I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS IS THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED
If you’re a “nice guy” to a girl up until you realize she doesn’t want to date you, then go on about how she’s a cold shrew that friendzoned you and how no girls date nice guys, like, nah mate, girls do date nice guys. You just aren’t a nice guy. You’re a passive aggressive beta with internalized misogyny and a serious victim complex.

when surrounded by “women’s” magazines always shilling their weird and sometimes dangerous sex advice or “The four things he really wants (it’s not what you think!)” it is difficult not to scream “IF I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO FUCK MY MAN I WILL ASK HIM”
Hint: I do….
But why is consulting a magazine that doesn’t know either of you a more...

This rant is brought to you by reading about women at the top. (I am now reading about the female candidate for presidency in Mexico)
How is it that when a man is President of a country it is perfectly fine for him to have bajillions of service people AND a wife to keep fort at home? So he can do “his job”. For the people. Whom he understands perfectly.
But when it is a...

There’s this thing I’ve been thinking about over the past 2 days about the outrage and mountain of opinions about women and reproductive rights and what we should or shouldn’t do with our bodies, which apparently are debatable for everyone.
When did our country revert back to the 14th Century? I realize we’ve had a divide in this country between conservative and not...

If there’s any justice in this world, some day Rick Santorum’s appendix will burst and a female doctor will insist he not be treated promptly, but have a giant camera wand shoved up his ass so he can watch a video until he admits that he feels properly guilty about eating food.

– Cracked, of all things. Seriously. Cracked is now doing better on gender politics than Tumblr. Just sit with that for a moment.
(NB: The rest of the article contains some of the same problematic stuff that’s in most Cracked columns, and for the love of all that is good, DON’T READ THE COMMENTS!)

Happy Anna Howard Shaw day!
Woke up to my neighbors screaming obscenities at each other. Someone’s having a good valentine’s day.

It really is horrifying
that Kanye West got not only more flack, but a worse reputation for grabbing a microphone out of Taylor Swift’s hands and making a rude comment than Chris Brown did for beating his girlfriend until her face was unrecognizable.
White Woman Tears (TM) are a powerful thing.

Dear females of all ages,
Here is living proof that you don’t have to dress like a desperate, cheap whore to look pretty and utterly beautiful (Note: I am not calling all girls whores. I am only saying that some dress LIKE whores…I have respect for women because guys should, not to get laid, so if you can’t handle that, don’t bother...

Whip It
I’d have liked to see that movie as the opposite, a 36 year-old coming in to her own in roller derby and kicking some punk-ass kid’s ass.
That would’ve been inspirational.
