"Although most boys figure out how to bring themselves to orgasm by age thirteen, half of girls don’t have their first orgasms until their late teens, twenties, or beyond. Teenage girls widely agree that they get the message loud and clear that masturbation is something boys do, but girls don’t, can’t, or shouldn’t. The cultural focus on intercourse tells young women to expect they’ll begin to experience sexual pleasure once they have sex with a man (whether or not they’re even interested in sex with men). Nearly all teen boys, on the other hand, experience sexual pleasure long before they get their hands—or other body parts—into a partner’s pants. Despite the massive advances in women’s equality, young women’s sexuality is stuck in a surprising paradox. Young women are sold provocative clothes but aren’t taught where to find their own clitoris. Many girls give their boyfriends oral sex, but are too uncomfortable with their own bodies to allow the guys to return the favor. It’s still a radical act to say that women need and deserve access to information about their own sexual pleasure—not just about the risks and negative consequences of sex."

They should be happy someone wanted to have sex with them.” with the words “Ugly Girls Are Not Allowed” being the hashtag. Beneath are several user icons with the text: “Retweeted by Tshea23 and 100+ others.”]

 … Oh really now. Hold on while I flood you with HOW WRONG YOU ARE, theIlluminati.

What the fuck? Even if this is a joke, it’s in horrible taste. Everyone spam this guy with how misogynistic he is.

This happened, but I overreacted last night? Please. People re-tweeted this… I swear, sometimes I wish I could just quit humanity for a while.

stfurapeculture >:O

How ‘bout fucking no?!

As if rapists actually care about how their victim looks. also as if only women get raped.

Normally never get into this kinda stuff but jesus christ, what the fuck.

 stop the planet, i want to get off.

oh my fucking god.

I’d prefer not to get off this planet. I say we kick this guy and all his misogynistic, hate-filled retweeters off the planet instead. …maybe send along the rapists themselves too.

These people make me sick.

I don’t know what makes me more disgusted. This tweet or the 100+ folks that retweeted it. 

Object lesson, friends and kind relations: this is how rape culture keeps itself functioning and the wheels of it’s terrible, people destroying machine greased. It isn’t just that one person or one douchebag says or does something that turns rape into a joke, a punchline, or a triviality. It’s that A HUNDRED PLUS OTHERS give them a round of applause for it. It’s that A HUNDRED PLUS OTHERS spread it and send the very tacit, very powerful message that this is okay. That rape can be a joke and OTHER PEOPLE WILL SUPPORT YOU IN THAT IN LARGE NUMBERS. 

This is how this persists. The way any hatred persists. Because the people who talk and act in these ways can be assured that they will not meet with great opposition or forceful pushback. They can be assured that people will chuckle and laugh and support them. 

And this is how those who become rapists first have the idea planted in their skulls that the act of rape can ever be okay to do, that it’s ever something you can let yourself participate in. Because they see this and an insidious little seed of a thought just sort of grows, silent and unexamined and unconscious in their brains until it become a very very horrible action.

"Some people get the wrong idea, you know. If you’re quiet and you’re just not the most gregarious person, that you’re like.. I don’t know, self-involved, rude possibly, frigid. I get that a lot from people who don’t know me, like online all you guys think I never smile, ever. It’s not true. I do smile sometimes."

What's Wrong With Fat Shaming? (Lesley Kinzel @ xoJane)

Standing against fat-shaming ensures that everyone gets to make private decisions about the state of their body, and that everyone gets to have those decisions respected, whether they decide to lose weight, or to be contentedly fat, or to dye their hair green, or to get lots of piercings or tattoos — other people’s bodies are none of your business, not to touch, to judge, or to publicly comment upon.
