“But kinks are harmless.”

keepfeminismindisney:

For 99% of the kinks out there, I agree. Most harm no one. However there comes a time when there are harmful fetishes. When those kinks perpetrate harmful behaviors like white supremacy and misogyny you really need to stop whining “stop kink shaming me.” The fact white people get off to abusing POC is gross. Oh wait, it’s just roll playing right? White people have never been the dominate group in society or anything, right? Like white people have never degraded POC for hundreds of years. Oh wait, they fucking have. Your kink is doing nothing but upholding white supremacy. I also guarantee you those white doms also do think POC are beneath them outside of their kink.

Also, there is the kink where its play rape. I get tumblr will defend this one until they are blue in the face and then turn around saying “reblog this post about rape.” I don’t get it either. I’m sorry but in the US alone 1 in 6 women are raped (don’t know the worldwide stat but I’m sure its just as depressing). Men actually do rape on a regular basis. There was one survey a scholar took where most men admitted they would force a woman to have sex with them. I’m sorry but why exactly are we condoning something as gross as this? 


Why are there people on tumblr who are seriously okay with perpetrating misogyny and racism within their kinks? Did I miss the memo where sex is void of social influence? Because I guarantee you every single sociologist will tell you sex and sexuality socially constructed. The fact people on tumblr are perfectly okay with these kinks makes me sick to my stomach. Call me a “kink shamer” all you want because this shit is gross and needs to be called out.

An 83 year old British gentleman arrived in Paris by plane. As he was fumbling in his bag for his passport a stern French lady asked if he had been to France before. He admitted he had indeed been previously. The lady sarcastically said then you should know to have your passport out and waiting sir. The gentleman said I didn’t have to show it last time. Impossible! The women said, you British have always had to show your passports to get through here. The man responded by whispering “Well, when I came ashore on the beach on D-Day in 1944 I couldn’t find any fucking Frenchmen to show it to!”

feministdisney:

When someone says something like what Frog Naveen did, our first reaction is often to re-assert to them the ways in which we identify with what they accept as normal and “correct”:  “I’m straight, I shave, I’m thin, look at my face, I would be considered attractive by society’s standards.”

Instead of just this knee-jerk reaction, turn the spotlight back on the individual by asking why these things matter in the first place: Would feminism be less “valid” if the movement was completely comprised of queer, hairy ugly girls?    Why do they encourage us to differentiate ourselves from our feminist sisters?  

Their assumption thatthese identities are less worthy feminist voices, and that we would implicitly agree by choosing to distance ourselves from “the unideal feminist,” highlights the work feminism still needs to do.

you—uncultured—swine:

A mother sits beside her newborn calf. She can see him, she can smell him, her body is already making the milk she craves to feed him, but she is prevented from nursing him.

Her time with him is brief as he will be taken and killed so that her milk can be consumed by humans. She will grieve the loss, and the next loss and the next and the next. 

The dairy industry is without compassion for the misery and suffering of the millions of animals it exploits. 

Please, don’t support this industry.

I never realized how nasty these industries are, until now. :(

Are you guys serious? That calf is being weaned, because it’s time for her to be separated from her mother, it’s a gentle form on weaning, they can still see and smell each other, but can’t touch each other. Rather than cold turkey ripped away from mother and herd. That calf will then go into a herd of other calves that get raised till yearlings, these are dairy cows, unless it’s a bull it won’t be killed, and even then it’s highly unlikely. It’ll go into production. If you euthanize all the calves, your business won’t be continuing very long. And Seriously? Are you a fucking idiot? A cow does only produce milk when a calf is born. Cows are milked two or three times a day, all year round. Oh and milking is cruel? You numbskull, if the cow isn’t milked as much as she needs to be, it gets painful. The more grain they eat, the more milk is produced. If she doesn’t get milked, her udder will get too heavy and start to ache. She won’t be able to lay down or get comfortable. Not to mention if it’s left, she can get infections like mastitis. Not fun. Also, dairy farms have whole herds of dry cows. Those are the girls that aren’t milking for whatever reason, so they get a break and go out to pasture. Keeping the cows happy and comfortable and least stressed is the priority of dairy farms, because the happier the cow, the more milk she produces. They get water beds. And you’re telling me that’s cruel? This is all coming from an animal rights activist, and a person strongly against factory farming. Wanna know something? The majority of dairy farms are not factory farms. They’re family owned. All the milk goes to a co op and sold from a major company. I’ve done my research on this, and spent a lot of time on dairy farms. You, my friend are ignorant. Do some research. you—uncultured—swine, it’s a fitting URL.

Why I Love My Mother

  • Politician at door:

    (blah blah blah)...and my strong commitment to traditional family values, as my wife of 28 years will attest.

  • Shade's mom:

    Sir, I don't care if you have orgies every Tuesday night so long as you get your job done.

  • Politician:

    ...

  • Shade's mom:

    Also, if "traditional family values" is a sneaky way of saying "anti-gay marriage stance," you should know that my daughter is bisexual, and if I never get to cry at her wedding because some law you passed made her wedding illegal, I will personally see that your wife of 28 years has a lesbian awakening in time for you to discover the virtues of traditional divorce.

  • Politician:

    ...you have yourself a nice day, m'am.

A 50- something year old white woman arrived at her seat on a crowded flight and immediately didn’t want the seat. The seat was next to a black man. Disgusted, the woman immediately summoned the flight attendant and demanded a new seat. The woman said “I cannot sit here next to this black man.” The fight attendant said “Let me see if I can find another seat.” After checking, the flight attendant returned and stated “Ma’am, there are no more seats in economy, but I will check with the captain and see if there is something in first class.” About 10 minutes went by and the flight attendant returned and stated “The captain has confirmed that there are no more seats in economy, but there is one in first class. It is our company policy to never move a person from economy to first class, but being that it would be some sort of scandal to force a person to sit next to an UNPLEASANT person, the captain agreed to make the switch to first class.” Before the woman could say anything, the attendant gestured to the black man and said, “Therefore sir, if you would so kindly retrieve your personal items, we would like to move you to the comfort of first class as the captain doesn’t want you to sit next to an unpleasant person.” Passengers in the seats nearby began to applause while some gave a standing ovation.
