If you rape someone, it doesn’t matter that you’re only 16.

If you rape someone, it doesn’t matter that you cry like a child in court.

If you rape someone, it doesn’t matter that you had a promising future.

if you rape someone, it doesn’t matter that your life is destroyed.

If you rape someone, it should haunt you for the rest of your life. 

You raped someone. 

You deserve every ounce of justice we can place upon you in court of law.

rebloggable by request

the link to the youtube video in the last screencap doesnt work obviously so i’ll link it here (again, content warning for graphic rape and abuse)

I cannot begin to explain how much of a trigger warning this is. 

Please proceed with caution. I seriously won’t look at porn anymore. 

It pisses me off how normalised porn is.

It pisses me off even more how talking about the negative aspects of porn suddenly makes you anti-sex.

It pisses me off that men who I care about, who I see as caring and sensitive, have no problem watching another man do this type of thing to women.

It pisses me off that men who I love have got off to images of women being raped, or at the very least coerced.

It fucking pisses me off.

And no ok “not all porn is like this” but even if just ONE FUCKING PERCENT IS then that’s fucking enough for me to need to speak out against it.

The rape industry is vile, and exploitative, and it doesn’t give a shit about the women (and, quite often, men) it employs. This isn’t anti-rape propaganda  This is straight from the horse’s mouth. This is told to us every fucking day by the men who control the industry. They fucking hate women and they don’t give a shit whether they consent or not.

Scum. Absolute scum.

And you never know whether the porn you’re watching is “well acted” or is actually rape.

And I hope that that makes you fucking sick.

Holy shit. I’m never watching porn again.

Some Misandry

Trigger Warning: Extremely Brief Mention of ED

This past week, I have officially maxed myself out on tolerance of men. Why is it that most of the men I know treat me like I’m nothing more than porn-novelty red hair and large breasts? It’s all they can see. Nevermind that I’m a vegan, a feminist, that I’m clumsy, I still play Pokemon, that I’ve been known to eat frosting straight out of the jar, that I speak three languages… there are so many minute and big things that make me who I am. But men don’t see and aren’t interested in any of those things.

The supreme irony is that, as a result of years of an eating disorder, I’m only able to tolerate my physical appearance on most days. When you don’t like the way you look, and you’re constantly told it’s your best quality… well, how do YOU think that feels?

When people tell me that feminism is ridiculous and that we’re all equal in this day and age… it’s either because they’re the men who are knowingly or unknowingly reducing women to sex objects, or they’re women who have tragically normalized their own experiences of objectification.

I don’t even know which is worse.

If you’re an ethical vegan, I will love you no matter what.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a skinny or fat ethical vegan.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a Hindu or Atheist ethical vegan.

It doesn’t matter if you’re gay, transgender, or straight, ethical vegan.

It doesn’t matter if you’re an American or Asian ethical vegan.

If you’re an ethical vegan, I will love you no matter what.

idk why but this has miffed me off a tad, the whole “i will love you no matter what”, being vegan doesnt automatically make you a good person anymore then being a christian does, its stupid to ‘love’ some one based on one of their life choices! 

yes i automatically have a level of respect for someone for the way they acknowledge and actually do their part towards the shitty way animals are treated in this world as its something i feel strongly about, but that doesnt mean im going to like them as a person or make them any less capable of being dicks to humans.

I was actually going to reblog this saying something similar, The amount of “vegans” i’ve heard that rape/are racist/ect is actually ridiculous.
But honestly, if someone is a true ethical vegan, they wouldn’t cause harm to anyone.. They would be for equality, and thus probably not a dick.. 

There are people who call themselves vegan and assault others are not true vegans.

"[TW: rape culture] So fuck you, MRAs. Fuck you for showing up every time women speak, especially about rape and abuse, and trying to make it all about you. Fuck you for derailing threads about the victims of Marc Lépine, a man who screamed about his hatred for feminists as he murdered fourteen women and injured many others, because you also hate feminists and want a fucking cookie for not killing anyone. Fuck you for making rape and death threats against young women who dared to protest a speaking engagement by a man who thinks little girls would enjoy being raped by their fathers if it weren’t for society telling them it’s dirty. Fuck you for whining about how unfair it is that women might wonder if you’re a rapist when you approach them out of nowhere, while completely ignoring how unfair it is that women feel the need to be on guard all the time in public. Or that if we relax and behave normally — drinking, dancing, dressing however we want — you will be the first motherfuckers in line to blame us for getting ourselves raped."

A+++ rant from Kate Harding on the MRA movement and how it’s not actually about the real issues men face, but about putting feminists in their place.

I might have to reblog this everyday.

Rape has become endemic in South Africa, so a medical technician named Sonette Ehlers developed a product that immediately gathered national attention there. Ehlers had never forgotten a rape victim telling her forlornly, “If only I had teeth down there.

Some time afterward, a man came into the hospital where Ehlers works in excruciating pain because his penis was stuck in his pants zipper.

Ehlers merged those images and came up with a product she called Rapex. It resembles a tube, with barbs inside. The woman inserts it like a tampon, with an applicator, and any man who tries to rape the woman impales himself on the barbs and must go to an emergency room to have the Rapex removed.

When critics complained that it was a medieval punishment, Ehlers replied tersely, “A medieval device for a medieval deed.”

I’m not a misandrist, but if men are going to go topless at the beach, then they’re just asking for a titty twister.  Why would you expose your chest if not to let everyone touch it and make you uncomfortable?  It’s just common sense!
