33-year-old Ugandan Marathon Athlete Rebecca Cheptegei, Who Competed In This Summer's Paris Olympic Games,

Bridget Perrier of SexTrade 101 (Canada) at the CATW event co-sponsored with Equality Now panel entitled: “Prostitution or Sex Work? When Terminology and Legalization Collide with Human Rights” on March 13, 2014, at the 58th Session of the United Nations’ Commission on the Status of Women (CSW58).

Do yourself a favour and start believing you deserve everything good in life and that nothing is out of reach for you.

i cant get over it. why dont impoverished men choose to enter prostitution en masse?

a) „there are not enough women who want to buy sex so there is no market“

so you agree that prostitution is a system that mostly benefits men, as sex buyers? incheresting

b) „there are not enough women and they are not gay or bisexual“

so you agree that sex is not a service? the sexed body is the product? incheresting

c) „they have an easier time getting a job on the regular job market“

so you agree that prostitution profits from and reinforces misogyny? its not just a neutral job choice? incheresting

d) „they are often single mothers who need flexible work hours and get discriminated against on the job market“

oh so you again agree that prostitution profits from and reinforces misogyny? that single fathers are more rare and have better job opportunities? which pushes women into sexual exploitation? incheresting

e) „women dont have any other options“

so you agree that women are systematically groomed into prostitution, kept from exiting and kept from entering other fields where impoverished men find jobs? incheresting

f) „women choose prostitution over other options“

so you again agree that women are systematically groomed into prostitution, kept from exiting and kept from entering other fields where impoverished men find jobs? because why arent men choosing it if it offers such great benefits? incheresting

i just dont buy the „no alternatives“ argument. there are alternatives but impoverished women are systematically pushed into prostitution by their families and partners, by social workers and feminists telling them its a choice without questioning why men dont choose it, by employers who know this is a last resort for women and choose to employ men instead, and there is no pushback because the men as a class also profit from prostitution, as sex buyers and competitors on the regular job market.

and then we are being pitched that these women actually have no options? be for real

of course women will say its their choice if they are being told from all sides and are systematically kept from pursuing other options.

Why is nobody talking about Cwecwe?

Cwecwe is an South African girl who is 8 years old. She was raped by penetration by a man of power. She at first didn't wanna say anything about the situation as she was rushed into the bus but she was in pain and she eventually told someone about it. Two people of school staff gave their DNA samples to the police and they were cleared but the principal refused to give his sample and expelled Cwecwe from the school and said she wasn't welcome there.

If that doesn't scream that he's guilty...

All I wanna say is that we need to speak more about that situation because if we won't then nothing in the world would change. No woman is free until all of us are.

Justice for Cwecwe.

how to keep a dolly mind⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🧁

this post is inspired by @arielleslipgloss's post about dolly mindset and i just wanna make my own post about keeping a doll mindset so i hope that u enjoy…💬🎀

WHATS IN UR MIND ;

whats in ur mind manifests. what u think consistently everyday is what u will experience, thats just how the brain works. so if ur thinking positive thoughts, you'll experience positive things but the same is true if u think negative thoughts.

BE POSITIVE ;

affirm. affirm. affirm. if u dont want to experience it, then dont dwell on it. when u spend so much time dwelling on negativity you'll only perpetuate that into ur reality so can we not? be POSITIVE and dwell only on things that u want to manifest and experience.

DONT THINK TOO MUCH ;

with that being said, DONT THINK TOO MUCH. sometimes its good to get out of ur own head and just affirm positively on autopilot. dont spend so much time pondering things that upset you. ofc its important to ponder things that you struggle with because thats how u overcome them, but if u dwell on them too much you'll only perpetuate it. make ur mind a good place to be. dont worry about a thing ♡

dont give others the power to make u uncomfortable in ur own mind. dont dwell on other people's negative opinions or criticism, dont be consumed by a situationship. the center of ur universe should be you, you and YOU.

HOW TO MAKE UR OWN DOLLHOUSE (IN UR MIND) ;

this section is inspired by something that i read about in the book pyscho cybernetics and essentially the idea is that u create a space in ur mind that is completely and wholly yours. a place that u can go when u need a breather and i though it was just ADORABLE.

so create ur own dollhouse in ur mind. how i did this was i focused on my 5 senses and i imagined myself creating a space for myself. once i was done imagining it, i imagined myself walking into it and just relaxing in it.

♡ i imagine a cute room (pretty large) with baby pink wallpaper

♡ i imagine a balcony with fresh flowers and a cute pink chair

♡ pink drapes DUH

♡ plush couches with leopard print throw pillows and cashmere blankets

♡ very 90's hollywood mansion inspired with cute dolly music playing softly in the background

and whenever i want to i just imagine myself walking into this space and relaxing on the couch. painting my nails, doing a face mask or just talking to myself and its so soothing…💬🎀

WHAT SHOULD CONSUME UR THOUGHTS ;

♡ shopping

♡ glitter

♡ self pampering

♡ your education

♡ YOUR FUTURE (the most important one btw)

♡ urself and ur future

WHAT SHOULDN'T CONSUME UR THOUGHTS ;

♡ toxicity from any source (bad friends, social media etc)

♡ the past

♡ jealousy

♡ and anything that u DONT want to manifest

THINGS THAT CAN HELP UR MIND ;

if u find it particularly difficult to stay positive or ur just going through a hard time, first of all know that ur NOT alone and things will always get better 💗 some things that can help ur state of mind can include ->

getting a full 8-10 hours of sleep every night, staying hydrated and eating a balanced diet, getting sunlight and fresh air everyday, journalling and other forms of self expression. and to finish off this post i wanna leave u guys with some dolly affirmations to live ur best dolly life 💗
