11. Bring consent out of the bedroom. I think part of the reason we have trouble...
– Holly over at The Pervocracy with an excellent 101 post on Consent Culture. Read the whole thing.
(via a-bayani)
Even out of the micro-“lunch table” type examples, the idea of non-consent is so pervasively intertwined in western/north american culture. it is cousins to the “i know, better than...

I hope she finds Looking for Alaska for me.
In the meantime I’m nomming grapes and coffee whilst slowly making myself look devilishly handsom for my coffee date with the ex at eleven thirty.
Lets not dwell on how superficial I’m being right now making sure I look good, because I havnt seen him in over a year and a half. I swear It’s actually not because I want him.
I simply...
Chilling on the back porch of my parents house...
Come inside, get leftover pizza, start watching late night talk shows.
Brother (walks in) : I can smell weed!
Me on the inside: F*ck he knows, OMG OMG OMG. Kill me now. I’m dead.
Me on the outside: Yeah I think its some kids down the road.
Brother: Hmmm….Some dodgy people in this town.

This guy!
Guess who else is looking up what board she will be soon purchasing from the Sector nine site.

I think I might get a tattoo that says: "Gamble...
Im thinking on my hip bone.
I just love that song <3
Every lyric.
I love what It means.
And How It makes me feel.
And where gambling for love has taken me, and what it’s turned me into.

There is only one serious question and that is: who knows how to make love stay?...

If you’re a “nice guy” to a girl up until you realize she doesn’t want to date you, then go on about how she’s a cold shrew that friendzoned you and how no girls date nice guys, like, nah mate, girls do date nice guys. You just aren’t a nice guy. You’re a passive aggressive beta with internalized misogyny and a serious victim complex.
I’m sitting in the chair, writhing in agony. A demon, a minor demon, is...
I feel so extremely emotionally exhausted...
I’m tired.
I have bruises all over my body.
A massive stress rash.
And this big heavy sinking feeling.
I’m home for the night and mama and I had a massive talk about the lives of assault victims. She opened up to me in such a way and said to me it isn’t sexist to be afraid of men. I’m kinda thinking it has an air of truth to it, It’s like every girl I meet these...
Anonymous asked: You reblogged my story, the one that made you think of that guy. I just wanted you to know that it's a 100% true story. It happened almost 4 years ago, and it's still really tough, but it gets better. It starts to hurt less. Hope comes back. And you deserve to be happy. More than happy, you deserve to be absolutely elated about life. After something like that it takes work to get back to...

Two weeks in, we were laying on my bed talking. (My mom didn’t have an open-door…
I actually can’t believe how much this has affected me.
