As feminists, we tend to think a lot about male privilege (stuff like the fact that men are more likely to be bosses and CEOs and less likely to get raped), but not very much about female privilege. I stumbled across this, a list of female…

– Marshall McLuhan (via forrestonfire)
I’d say it’s less that big ones are kept secret, and more that they’re not followed up due to apathy. For example, most people wouldn’t deny that the West has raped and pillaged a lot of the poorer countries; they just don’t seem to...

Me: Okay so if orientation is a choice, choose to be gay, right now.
Him: No.
Me: Why not?

Three myths about the NDAA →
sinidentidades:
Myth # 1: This bill does not codify indefinite detention
It simply cannot be any clearer within the confines of the English language that this bill codifies the power of indefinite detention. It expressly empowers the President — with regard to anyone accused of the acts in section (b) – to detain them “without trial until the end of the hostilities.” That is the very...

This is very interesting… but please approach this with a critical mind. This kind of ‘information’ can be disastrous in the hands of a manipulative person with very bad intentions!

“Comments about my body” from Laci Green
Anonymous asked: Hi, I am confused about this whole 'vegan privilege' thing. I don't personally believe there is such a thing. I believe in class privilege & such, which can mean better access to information, but I don't believe that someone who is vegan is vegan because s/he is more privileged than an omnivore. Can you help me out with this concept, plz? If I were to believe that veganism...

Unpopular SJ Opinions: But seriously →
unpopularsjopinions:
Being vegan is not a privilege. “Vegan privilege” is **a hugely** self-centered, solipsistic (GOSH ALL OF MY CRITICISMS ARE SOUNDING THE SAME COULD THIS BE SOME SORT OF UNDERLYING PROBLEM), defensive and unthinking bullshit conception of privilege.
Sheltered (ie. not homeless) privilege,…
Well said.
