also has anyone ever noticed the different attitudes towards men and women who use drugs? like dudes can get away with it if it makes them artistic or aloof or creative or whatever but you never see that with women, and if you delve further into this romantic view of drugs it’s always specifically WHITE guys that get a free pass because they’re ~rebellious~ and ~inspiring~ or some shit

i remember in high school and middle school people would always ponder why it was that straight girls often dated guys a bit older than them but not the other way around and i was always bothered that no one thought of the glaringly obvious answer being the fact that most dudes don’t actually finish puberty until they’re graduated high school and girls are several steps ahead in developing and not being attracted to someone who looks like a child when you look like an adult is p sensible

Can anyone explain why men spit so much?Like all I can hear is dudes spiting lougies outside my window

I think it is a competitive sport. Rather like pissing.

women’s male assistants get credit for their work, even awards

men’s female assistants get nothing. fired for no reason maybe. molested maybe.

i just realised i missed something here

in saying that men’s female assistants get fired for no reason i was saying that they’re likely to be both a) recognised as assisting and b) paid for it, which… naive of me

and women’s male “assistants” don’t have to raise a finger, much less be employed by the woman, they just have to be in the general vicinity it seems

i love when people forget how old i am and act like im some perverted freak  for being attracted to an “underage girl” who is 16 or 17 even though im fucking 19 and these people wouldn’t bat a fucking eye at a dude doing the same thing. reminds me of the poor girl in florida who got arrested once she turned 18 for being gay. fuck that

“A feminist analysis of oppression confirms that a ‘victim’ is a person suffering oppression and coercion, not – as ‘fun’ feminists would have it- a figure who has elected herself to this status as a defeatist martyr. Women suffer too under body hair as stigma. They are seen as monstrous, grotesque, disgusting, aggressive, anti-social, or mad.”
