the most seen i’ve ever felt by a character is claire from fleabag. she’s sharp, controlled, untouchable. but underneath she’s holding on by a thread and that’s where i see myself the most. the constant push for perfection, for things to make sense, while quietly feeling like nothing ever will. it’s the ache of wanting more but never being sure if you’ll ever get it. she’s tough, she’s cold, she’s misunderstood. and she’s exactly what it feels like to keep everything together when you’re coming apart at the seams. there’s a pain in her perfection, a truth in her restraint that i understand on a level i don’t even know how to fully explain. she’s every part of me that i’m still trying to make sense of.
"None of us are free until every one of is unshackled"
sometimes I feel like we are all glorified whores (although untrue) , that's why men can call any woman a bitch and no one will blink an eye because any sexual encounter makes you unpure, unfit for the picture of a lady -and if you haven't don't any of it because you are waiting for marriage don't woryyy about it.You'll get called a prostitute by your in laws the first moment you guys have a big fight, after all isn't marriage considered a lifetime supply of "free" sexuality exclusively resorved for one person? Some of us have have a wardrobe of silk clothes, some hold positions of extreme power and others hold onto the delusion of consent but we are all a bitch as long as men see us that way, as long as we keep letting them.
Was just diagnosed with “need to bite you” disorder. Yeah sorry it’s terminal. The only cure is biting you. C’mere.
someone: don’t u think it’s disturbing how in the past few years the level of femininity women are expected to perform and the industries they’re expected to contribute to in order to be taken seriously, especially on platforms like social media, has skyrocketed to the point that perfect makeup, contouring, acrylic nails, and eyelash extensions have become almost a social expectation and when women express no interest in adhering to those standards they’re met with vitriol and scorn straight woman who thinks Legally Blonde is the apex of feminist media: okay but it’s my choice? if i want to be feminine i should have the right to choose to do that because feminism is about choice
I remember bits and pieces, but not the whole night.

that's why adoption is always the answer. Don't want life long physical pain for having a child? Adoption. Do you believe we fucked up the Earth too much and the resources are running low? Adoption. Don't want to deal with people not treating you like an actual human being for 9 months? ADOPTION.
the thing is like. i get that it's scary and makes people who do desire to get pregnant uncomfortable when we talk about the brutality and violence of pregnancy and the damage that pregnancy can do to your body
but you deserve to give informed consent to that process.
the lies around pregnancy - that it's inherently safe, that it doesn't do you permanent damage, that it's only extremely rare for people to die of pregnancy complications, etc like
all of these are lies constructed so that more people will get pregnant w/o knowing all that
there needs to be more talk about the impact of miscarriages and how common they are, how different abortion processes are and how accessible they are
but also like. talking about how pregnancy fucks your body up should not be taboo
this is a process that permanently changes most people's bodies, and that's even if the pregnancy doesn't do them like. severe illness or injury
and i just think everybody should have a right to KNOW that
bc to live in a society that intentionally obscures and hides facts about a completely optional and dangerous process does so for a reason, and that reason is based in a very sinister ideology that does not value bodily autonomy or informed consent
Ah yes

I need people to understand that I want more scary Stiles Stilinski. I'm feral for this little sopping wet cat of a man whom everyone underestimates until he goes from 0 to 100. One second he's being a little damsel in distress but then one of his friends gets hurt and suddenly he stands in a field of gore cackling at the sky because the bloodlust has driven him nearly insane. Bonus points if Derek is there and matches his freak.
the way you wash the dishes, a relationship with a man, the attitude you show to strangers, which country to travel ... EVERYTHING IS ANALYZED UNDER A MICROSCOPE TO SEE IF IT IS FIT TO SOCIETY BY OTHERS AND TO SEE IF IT IS HOW YOU WANT TO REPRESENT WOMEN BY YOURSELF

la tristesse durera toujours. being a fujoshi is payback for all of the sexualization our sisterhood faces daily
