– JON STEWART, on Virginia’s inhumane, inhuman and shameful “personhood” law that requires women wanting to get an abortion to, in essence, be subject to rape, on The Daily Show (via inothernews)

Rock 102's Daily Hottie →
I write for my school’s newspaper and I am currently working on an article reviewing local radio stations.
And of course on the rock stations I come upon this.
Why is it somehow “edgy” to be so misogynistic? It looks as if they took one girl’s body and stuck different heads on it. Why does the mainstream idea of “hot” have to be so one-sided? Not only are...
BREAKING NEWS
Common sense reveals that there is no correlation between self-respect and whether or not you show your tits on the internet or how many people you sleep with.

The Purity Myth in full →
Hey everyone, I discovered that you can stream The Purity Myth documentary through the Media Education Foundation’s website for free. (Sadly it’s only a small screen and has some writing over it, but it works for those who really want to see it.) Also, Jessica Valenti (the woman who wrote the book) suggested this website where you can watch it for $4. I am excited to finally be able to...

Denego Propago: It seems I've come full circle. →
darkthoughtsbrightdays:
As a child, I loved girly things. I loved frilly dresses, tiaras, lipstick, pretty things for pretty people. After about mid-kindergarten or first grade, though, I had shunned all of those things in favor of being “one of the guys”. I had realized that I couldn’t do other things I liked if I…
Theres is Nothing Wrong with Dark Skin

vanachexfortune:
You don’t have to come from Africa to have dark skin. You can come from any part of the world and be born with a darker shade of skin.
Instead of demonizing dark skin. Understand the beauty in color.
Reblogging this for the message and also for people who don’t know what actual dark skin is. When a writer writes a character as having “dark skin” this...

But you know, I just really need to rant one last time. I’ve already said this rant to about three people today, including my boyfriend. And this is why I asked him if we could please not celebrate Valentine’s Day this year.
It was cute when we were kids. We got to eat candy and have fun making cards and stuff.
Ever since we hit puberty, it’s been all about relationships. Who...
Common Excuses to Not Use a Condom
fuckyeahplannedparenthood:
1. Condoms fail all the time!
Actually, when used correctly, condoms are 98% effective in preventing pregnancy (for couples in which one partner can impregnate and the other can become pregnant). They also help prevent the spread of HIV and STDs.
2. They don’t feel good / I just don’t like them.
If you didn’t like the brand of soap you used, would you...

Anon: In one of my classes a prof was talking about how the US has a rape culture in part because sex is so closely associated with violence. The class was pretty powerful and got me thinking; is there something wrong with rough sex and/or rape fantasies? It almost seems like another voluntary…

Don’t think you have to give your virginity to your boyfriend/girlfriend on Valentine’s Day because it will be “special” and that’s the only thing that can “prove your love”.
Do not let anyone pressure you into sharing your body with somebody else.
That is a choice for you to make when you are comfortable and ready! And it will be a great experience if it is with the right person at the...
