[Parents should] recommend some books with female leads that your son would enjoy reading. If your next question is “Why?,” then ask your daughter why she liked Harry Potter. She might say it was a good story, great characters, and a fantastic world. Who cares if the main character was a boy? In fact, girls will pick up a book with a hero or heroine equally. According to my excellent librarian resources, boys will actively avoid books with a girl as the main character. What’s the problem? I have no idea. Why should you encourage your son to read books with heroines? That’s easy. You want your son to grow up knowing that a strong female for a friend, wife or boss is normal and good.

I hate fat shamers, I hate rape apologists, I hate that I have to hide my sexuality, I hate that I make people uncomfortable, I hate relying on other people to make me happy, I hate that I’m the only one who loves my body, I hate being too sad to be productive, I hate that people think because I’m open about my sexuality that I’m only looking for sex and not a partnership, I hate today.
so this sometimes.

When men don’t realize that patriarchy negatively impacts them, too.

Do you think it’s fair that a guy will make more money doing the same job as you? Does it piss you off and scare you when you find out about your friends getting raped? Do you ever feel like shit about your body? Do you ever feel like something is wrong with you because you don’t fit into this bizarre ideal of what girls are supposed to be like? Well, my friend, I hate to break it to you, but you’re a hardcore feminist. I swear.

We need each other. Discouraging words, belittling other girls in front of boys, laughing looks… have no place here. Dialogue does. Let’s make girl love real, okay?

I need misandry because when men joke about killing/raping/hating women it’s supposed to be funny, but when I joke about hating men it’s apparently a crime against humanity.

Feminists who enjoy being dominated in heterosexual sex.
Stupidest post of ever.
Enjoying being dominated consensually is in no way contradictory to wanting equal rights.
Please shut up forever.
