– Chris Rock [video]
Bringing this back, because some people don’t seem to understand that there is a discrepancy in the quality of care among poor, middle-class, and wealthy people, NO MATTER HOW DEBILITATING THEIR RESPECTIVE DISEASES MAY BE.

I want to take a moment to thank the GOP
yougomollycoco:
for giving me so many occasions to use this picture in order to express my feelings
Women can’t get pregnant from rape?
Some rapes are more serious than other rape?
Getting pregnant from a rape is like giving birth out of wedlock? That’s a double-Bateman for that one:

Some gems from this thread: “Saying ‘mansplaining’ exists is sexist! Sexism against men exists and is the same as racism!”
Be civil or I’ll have to ban you from the page (unfortunately), but please, for the love of God, someone set these dudes straight.
Anonymous asked: I agree with and respect many of the points you've made on your blog, but I don't think it's fair to scorn the thinspiration blog that followed you. I'm pretty sure they followed because they want to read more about feminism, not because they think your body is thin/ideal. Also, wanting to lose weight doesn't always mean "self-loathing". If someone works to be...

Aw, cute. I love when thinspiration blogs follow me for it.
Look — indulge however you want in self-loathing, but my body is not your fucking grotesque prop. I doubt you’ll unfollow on your own, so consider yourself blocked.

My sister and I both recently lost weight as the result of being sick. When my mother saw us, she had two different reactions

It’s called http://fatpeopledoingthings.tumblr.com I thought it was supposed to be a blog in which fat people could submit things they do regardless of size, but it is actually a blog where people take pictures of them...

On Radical Feminist Bathrooms
kinseysixbitch:
freedominwickedness:
When radical feminists insist that women’s bathrooms should be exclusively for “biological females”, they invariably fail to actually explain how the hell this is supposed to work.
As a purely political term coined by radical feminists, “biological female” is both scientifically and legally meaningless — even radical feminists themselves argue incessantly...

Anonymous asked: whats more important to you? a woman who didnt use birth control to have the right to undergo an abortion OR the people in Afghanistan and Pakistan, (the innocent ones mind you, not the crazy Taliban hoo haas that you always hear about) are dieing for no good reason because of Obamas unmanned drones that just randomly go around killing people?
