today i had the dubious honor of learning that william wordsworth stole entire passages out of the journals his sister, Dorothy Wordsworth, wrote.

"The Grasmere Journal and Wordsworth's other works revealed how vital she was to her brother's success. William relied on her detailed accounts of nature scenes and borrowed freely from her journals. This passage is clearly brought to mind when reading William's 'Daffodils', where her brother, in this poem of two years later, describes what appears to be the shared experience in the journal as his own solitary observation. Her observations and descriptions have been considered to be as poetic if not more so than those of her brother."

ngl the brits cooked with "wanker." a truly powerful slur for males.

Women reblogging pics of random cute animals of unspecified gender:

Look at him....he this....he that....little guy....he him his he he he him boy his he bro him boi......

Women collectively need to rewire their subconsciousness into recognizing the female sex as the default. I doubt that'll ever happen though.

My Roman Empire is girls running away with each other uwu

The knowledge of Their happily ever after and the fact that indeed there's an alternative outside the plate will fix me

Hot take but "nice" catcalling (e.g those "wholesome" videos where a guy yells some variation of "I like your shoes" or "you're a badass" or whatever the fuck) completely misses the point about why catcalling is bad

Yeah, sure, you're not being sexually inappropriate with a stranger, but you are still infringing on her (let's not pretend it isn't always "her") ability to move through the world unimpeded. You are still demanding her attention. You are still deciding that you having something to say to her is more important than her right to be left alone.

It's exactly the same kind of bs as all those jumpscare stories where the punchline is "haha I made you THINK I was a bigot but AKSHUALLY I'm an ally!" (E.g "when my son came out I told him I refused to let him live under my roof...until we got him a boyfriend!!" etc)

Every woman's fight or flight reflex kicks in when she's catcalled, and your "nice genuine compliment" triggers that just as much as some douche saying "hey sexy"

More to the point, she still has no way of predicting how you're going to react if she doesn't engage with you the way you want, which is, crucially, *why* catcalling triggers the fight or flight reflex in the first place

Tl;dr you are never entitled to women's attention even if you think you're being nice. Leave women in public alone.

there are countries that ban girls from getting an education so i really don't give a fuck if some boys have a hard time at school because they don't want to behave and do their work
