A word on masturbation:
Masturbation leads to better body awareness.
And familiarity with your body, with what turns you on, with what doesn’t work for you,
Knowing what it takes for your body to feel pleasure,
Will lead to better sex.
Don’t feel ashamed to masturbate. It’s healthy; it relieves stress and headaches. And any negative myths about it are just that— fiction and sex-negative propaganda.
Happy May, everyone.

If you accidentally misgender someone
Do:
-apologize quickly once
-correct yourself
Don’t:
-apologize profusely
-ramble on about how you’re actually really accepting
-keep apologizing
-tell them about your trans* best friend who you’re so very supportive of
-apologize some more
-talk about how you never do this
-apologize even more

I like buying tampons from male cashiers so they have to touch the box.
I am a woman. Therefore I am better than men.

The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave.

| Rape Culture: | If a woman drinks alcohol and gets raped, it's partially her fault. If you don't want to get raped, you shouldn't be drinking. |
| Men at bars: | Can I buy you a drink? |
| Me: | No thanks. |
| Men at bars: | What the fuck, why not? Come on. Come ON, let me buy you some alcohol. God, I was being nice. Why would you turn down my generous offer? I guess chivalry really is dead. What a bitch. |
look all life has inherent worth but I’m just saying that I’d rather save a mouse from dying than a men’s rights activist you know what I mean
if i was in a crashing plane with a wasp and a men’s rights activist and i only had one spare parachute, i would use it on the wasp even though the wasp has wings

Ragen Chastain: Back Off My Fat Body (via bodyacceptanceorbust)
(via brightstartheory)
My fat body is far too valuable to be treated like a car whose worth is lowered because of some wear and tear. It’s far too astounding to be a metaphor or a political statement. It’s far too complicated to run on the same formula used to fuel a lawn mower. It is far too profound to be reduced to a ratio of weight and height. And it is far too amazing to be judged by anyone.
My fat body is not a representation of my failures, sins, or mistakes. My fat body is not an indication of my level of health or fitness. My fat body is not up for public discussion, debate or judgment. My fat body is not a signal that I need help or input to make decisions about my health or life. My fat body is the constant companion that helps me do every single thing that I do every second of every day and it deserves respect and admiration.
If you are incapable of appreciating my body and treating it with respect and admiration that is your deficiency not mine; work on it or not, but I do not care. Nor am I interested in hearing your thoughts on the matter so, if you want to be around me, you are 100% responsible for doing whatever it takes to keep those thoughts to yourself. If you are incapable of doing that I will stop spending time with you – I spend my time with people who can treat me appropriately.
I will wield my beautiful fat body like a weapon. I will love it, I will care for it, I will move it, I will show it in public, I will viciously defend my body against anyone who seeks to classify it as anything but amazing. You’ve been warned – back the fuck off.
