I fucking hate it when weeaboos spout this out (there are plenty of NON weaboos who say this but it’s mostly weeaboos I’ve noticed). I don’t care how ~kawaii desu yo ka~a character is YOU DO NOT SAY YOU WANT TO RAPE THEM

Loyalmoonie: What I would like to see in a Sailor Moon redub… (read before you respond please)
loyalmoonie:
There are some people out there that have talked about what they would like to see if there is ever a Sailor Moon redub. Tonight, I’m going to talk to you all a little about what I would like to see.
Now, this is a pretty controversial topic that anime purists...

5 Reasons You Should Never Agree to a Police Search (Even if You Have Nothing to Hide)
1. It’s your constitutional right.
The 4th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects us against unreasonable searches and seizures. Unless police have strong evidence (probable cause) to believe you’re involved in criminal activity, they need your permission to perform a search...

stfusexists:
Texas has decided to violate federal policies concerning the Women’s Health Program of Medicaid, and has lost $40 million of federal funding towards reproductive health care in the process. Way to go Texas! Now you’ve produced Rick Perry, W, and THIS abomination of legislation.
Click through to see what this means for reproductive rights in Texas, and to donate to Planned...

urlofglory asked: Oh totally. You can't be sexist towards a man because they're better than women. They're above reproach. You can only oppress the oppressed. That's what you're saying, right? Because you've made the same argument twice about two different creeds of people. Just because it's not a dominant social issue doesn't mean that denying it is the right thing to do....

Kevin Rudd just fucked it up for the Labor Party
Bad move. Even though I don’t vote for Labor, neither Kevin or Julia should be the leader by their behaviour. Penny Wong seems appropriate to be the leader of Labor Party.
I seriously hope Liberal party doesn’t get elected but I think (currently) they’ll win the next election. So marriage equality isn’t coming around soon and asylum seekers are just going to be treated...
urlofglory asked: It's not even a matter of the generalising about white people (which doesn't even make sense for you to do since you are white), it's become about denying white racism and bringing every other race down as being inferior as a result. I don't think you've realised that at all. You can only be racist towards PoC because they've had it so shitty? So they will continue to...
apparentle asked: irony? 'Affirmative action was created to - “OMGGGGGG RACISSMMMMMMMMM” '- cue (I assume) white person crying about racism against white people.
urlofglory asked: Really? It never occurred to you that any of this might be offensive? It has racist stamped all over it!
urlofglory asked: Then why do you feed into it? It's not reverse racism, it's racist. If something generalises unfairly, you don't support it. It isn't hard. Otherwise you just seem like, as I explained, a closet racist.
urlofglory asked: " I don’t try to elevate white people above everyone else." So trivialising racism against white people as "reverse racism" doesn't do that? No matter what argument you're trying to make, and I totally agree that white racism isn't grounded in centuries and generations of oppression, to deny it as a thing it to put white people above other races, no matter...
urlofglory asked: Reverse racism? Really? So you can't be racist to a white person. Why is that? You can't be racist to a white person because they aren't oppressed? Because they haven't been tortured and made slaves? Yeah? So You can never be racist to a white person because it's never been done before. White people are above reproach because they always have been? I get that you're...
urlofglory asked: Well I completely disagree. There may be a majority of people going around saying that, but to assume they're all white, or even to assume that all white people say that, as that post did, that's wrong. That's racist. Or does it not count as racism because it's toward white people? Because that's a whole other issue again.
urlofglory asked: Isn't it just a little bit racist to generalise that all white people think that way? Especially given that you yourself are white.
White people on racism

People of color are incarcerated at a higher rate with greater sentences for the same charges faced by white people. “…”
Unemployment is higher for POC than it is for white people. “Well, they should find jobs, then.”
A disproportionate amount of people of color are living in poverty in the United States. “They should work harder.”
POC are paid less than white people...

Blah.
The reason why this bothers me is because this is the kind of shit that a lot of racists and religious bigots and misogynists pull.
They’ll be like, “I just don’t like black people and I’m sorry if that offends you but I that’s my opinion and you have to respect that.”
OH, IT’S YOUR OPINION??? SORRY, I DIDN’T REALIZE...
Wait, seriously?

If you are an American trans guy who can’t get T because of lack money or your insurance doesn’t cover it, you may be able to get it for free directly from the pharmaceutical company that makes it.
One example is ‘Abbot’ who produce Androgel. They have a website (linked below) that...

feministrocker asked: What do you think of Led Zeppelin? Do you listen to them? They've been my favourite band, for a long time - and I really do enjoy their music. Especially Over the Hills and Far Away. That said, I understand that some of their song lyrics - as well as some of their actions - can be problematic. Are you able to reconcile liking Led Zeppelin with being a feminist? Also, what do you think about...
