“women Used To Marry Young And Have A Lot Of Children” VS “men Used To Marry Women When They Were

Shared here today by Matthew Boroson on Facebook. (ETA: Gaining inspiration from other authors is great. Lifting passages and avoiding giving credit isn’t.)

Tanith Lee was the first woman to win the British Fantasy Award for best novel, for the second book of the Flat Earth series. She died in 2015. You can buy Tales From the Flat Earth here and here .

OKAY I’M OUT. this is the last straw

You’re very, very highly regarded.

“You will never be a woman” lmao it’s nice to be affirmed as a trans man. Transphobia failed successfully

Common father experience

dad: "you forgive your mom way easier than you ever forgive me"

me: "she raised me and you were consistently hostile and absent"

dad: "wooooooooooooow"

Nightly reminder that JailBait won the best subreddit of 2008, meaning it was the MOST POPULAR subreddit and only eventually got banned years later to save reddit as a whole

Nightly reminder that when men get unlimited access to form a community with no rules, they will push the lack of rules to the depths of hell

If you Google "India rape news" these are the top articles that show up (they're all from today btw). And these are just the reported cases.

According to a report, 99% of sexual assault cases against Indian women go unreported.

Indian women are subjected to the worst kind of abuse by men. Misogyny is so deeply rooted here that honestly, I don’t think there’s any hope for us.

And the truth is, nothing we do matters. I could read all the feminist literature in the world, I could make endless lists of everything that’s wrong with this country, I could create space for women online and offline - but men would still continue to hurt us.

And my main issue is with men. Especially with the ones who understand exactly what’s wrong and still choose silence. The ones who laugh off their friends' remarks towards women, ignore how their fathers treat their mothers, and think they’re somehow better just because they’ve “never abused a woman.”

Their silence is our abuse. Their refusal to speak is our abuse.

And then there are women who’ve internalised misogyny so deeply, they defend and uphold the very systems that destroy us. That’s our abuse too.

And as a woman who doesn’t have the privilege to leave this country, I will continue to bear this abuse because I have no choice.

Exactly 🤝 now you’re getting it

Sex is why women are opressed

Gender is how

Thank god for 2A 🤭🤭

Meanwhile a society without women: no men

crazy how every time a female character gets cliche misogynistic writing we have to explain to people again that fictional characters are not real and do not choose things for themselves.
