natelyswhore:
I always took my being a girl for granted because I didn’t know what being a woman or a man felt like. I just assumed that the person filling this body was a woman because that’s what was supposed to happen. But I don’t really feel that way right now and it’s kind of terrifying.

It is nearly impossible to be a Dusty Lady and not have your body become a canvas of comments, critiques and opinions; specifically the one’s you didn’t ask for. You know the ones by moldy old ladies — and sometimes, not so old people — who say things like, “I liked it better when your face was…

optimisto asked: Last night I posted something about how if women would be less uptight and stop preferring men that treat them terribly, give the nice guy a chance to please once in a while - it would stop the development of the asshole complex, at least in some men and then I joked that that would end wars.
Then a few people put me on blast for being misogynistic, so I looked it up.

sincerity in 2k10.
So rare and underrated.
You can pantomime your emotions and walk around displaying sentiment to third parties or you can use the basic salt and pepper words that feel a little scary to say.
I love, I love, I love the salt and pepper in this life.
Always.

So tonight I had a discussion with someone and it turned ugly. I get very defensive when it comes to women’s rights because it’s a pretty serious issue. They were explaining how women get treated differently than men and it’s just something we have to accept and ignore. And I get it, I have...

It’s complicated because my mom doesn’t treat me like that anymore. After I got to be a certain size she stopped shaking me; there’s nothing for her to yell at me about anymore now that we don’t live together. She’s internalized the idea that I’m an adult she just happens to provide for, and I…
