Just give your baby up for adoption if you don’t want to be a parent!
Adoption is an alternative to parenting. Abortion is an alternative to not being pregnant. Some people cannot physically carry a pregnancy to term or to viability due to serious health concerns. Other women just don’t want…
I’m always shocked at the idea of anyong believing that carrying a...
The Lady Gaga Controversy
freshfeminism:
Lady Gaga controversy, here I come.
Ok, I totally get what freshfeminism’s saying.
But here’s how I see it: two weeks ago (maybe longer, not sure) a transgirl got into Big Brother Brasil - you probably know some version of this show. I don’t watch it, so all I know about it is what friends told me. What I do know for sure is that someone found out about her...
Been hitting F5 for the past 5 minutes
Tumblr offers me nothing.
I clearly should go to bed.
That awkward moment...
… when you spend half an hour trying to adjust your contact lenses and, after much blood, sweat and tears, you put your glasses on and it feels like your head is going to explode.

FUCKING MARRIED A GUY I MET ONLINE SEVEN YEARS AGO

I couldn’t care less about the Golden Globe and, as of now, I couldn’t give a shit about Glee either. But seeing Chris Colfer’s face when he won the prize was so rewarding. He really couldn’t believe it, it was like he had no idea he touched so many people with his story and character. And his speech wasn’t about himself, it was about doing whatever the hell you want...

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Stranger: hey
You: hey!
Stranger: asl
You: 19/o/usa
Stranger: o?
You: Other! Male and female are rigid gender categories imposed by the patriarchy in order to keep people in line!
Stranger: haha
You: Hahah.
Stranger: please elaborate
You: Well. When you close your eyes and really think about what it is that makes you a woman or a man -- other than your body, if that's what you use to define your gender -- what do you come up with that has nothing to do with what society tells you men and women are?
Stranger: wow
Stranger: thats deep
Stranger: so i'm gonna say your a girl?
You: Okay. Why do you say that?
Stranger: well guys don't really think that deep
Stranger: from my experience
You: Aha, you would be surprised. There are plenty of guys that do! Like I said -- it's typically assumed that guys are more on the surface, and don't delve into things like that, which isn't always true. Which is why strict gender roles can be destructive to people who don't fit them!
Stranger: huh. that makes sense. i'm a guy and i'm thinking about it.
You: Look at that!
Stranger: so are you a boy or a girl?
You: Does it really still matter?
Stranger: i guess not.
