those legs
on this women’s day, let me do a shout out to women who aren’t seen as “strong”, who aren’t financially successful, who aren’t easy for the world to handle. disabled women, trans women, women of color, ace and aro women, bi and pan and lesbian women, women who are unemployed, women who have to fight to get through the day. your existence is radical. i love you.
Some women want to be house wives and some women want to be Harvard professors and some women want to be porn stars and some women want to be nuns and some women want to be surgeons and there is nothing wrong with anyone’s profession I am sick of people being rude to women about their professions oh my god

It is a lie that women have been able to vote since 1920.
White women have been able to vote since 1920. All Native American women couldn’t vote until 1924. All Asian women couldn’t vote until 1952. All Black women couldn’t vote until 1964.
In five years there is probably going to be some big centennial celebration of women’s suffrage. But that will be a whitewashing of history. It will be an event that erases the struggles of non-white women. It will be an event that will try to hide the fact that white feminists heros like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton actively argued against the rights of people of color in order to advance their own goals.
Part of feminism isn’t just proving that women are strong and capable it’s also admitting that women can be awful and disgusting. It’s the flip side of destroying the ‘women are delicate angels’ myth. Don’t pretend women don’t beat, murder, and rape. They do. And stop glorifying women who do god awful things just because they do it in heels and lipstick ok that drug cartel woman is not someone you should be idolizing.
WOMEN ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE PREFERENCES
WOMEN HAVE A CHOICE IN WHO TO DATE/SLEEP WITH/ETC
WOMEN DON’T HAVE TO LIKE YOU
WOMEN SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE TO JUSTIFY THEIR PREFERENCES
WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO REJECT SOMEONE FOR WHATEVER REASON
BEING “NICE” DOES NOT MEAN A PERSON IS ATTRACTED TO YOU OR OWES YOU ANYTHING
SERIOUSLY
I
AM
SCARED
AND
IT’S
NOT
FAIR
I love it when women love themselves.
I love it when women are learning to love themselves.
I love it when women inspire other women to love themselves
