“Rape is one of the most terrible crimes on earth. And it happens every few minutes, the problem with groups who deal with rape is that they try to educate women about how to defend themselves. What really needs to be done is teaching men not to rape. Go to the source and start there.”
- Kurt Cobain.oh

The week’s must-read report: The Women’s Media Center’s recently released report “Name It, Change It: The WMC’s Guide to Gender-Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates and Politicians.“ For your convenience, it even comes with handy charts. The takeaway: sexism in campaign coverage has genuine consequences for female politicians, but talking back to sexism on the campaign trail is an incredibly important antidote.

and a republican senator (Johnson) proposed an amendment that says anytime sperm is deposited anywhere other than a woman’s vagina, it is an act against an unborn child (it’s a joke). A man they interviewed on the show said no one else can tell a man what to do with his body because “who knows what’s best for you, other than you?” But when asked about his pro-life stance, abortion is a matter of protecting life not reproductive freedom and if it infringes on some women’s rights, who cares? ”Protecting life” is much more important.
These are all so great.

And this is why I hate Facebook. ”She’s a real woman”? How dare a woman want to live, right?
Now, I’m not trying to belittle her decision at all. but that’s exactly it: it was her decision.
over a 20-year period, asking some 2,000 men in college questions like this: “Have you ever had sexual intercourse with someone, even though they did not want to, because they were too intoxicated [on alcohol or drugs] to resist your sexual advances?”, or “Have you ever had sexual intercourse with an adult when they didn’t want to because you used physical force [twisting their arm, holding them down, etc.] if they didn’t cooperate?”
About 1 in 16 men answered “yes” to these or similar questions.

1 in sixteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen are you kidding me
if we got 1 in 16 motherfuckers admitting to raping women on college campuses and are “very forthcoming. In fact, they are eager to talk about their experience”, you better fucking believe tossing out your short skirt and staying in at night isn’t going to keep you safe.

…aaand in a survey of college males…
…and in another…

Yes, but ladies, it’s your fault. Stop walking in unsafe places dressed like a slut, and you won’t have a problem. Right?

To the comment above mine. Whoa. NO. Just. NO.
(via gaydinosaur)
FUCK YOU.
it is never,
ever
ever fucking ever
the victim’s fault.
short skirts don’t rape.
alcohol doesn’t rape.
being alone doesn’t rape. (plus, how often do random rapes on the street ACTUALLY HAPPEN?)
RAPISTS.
RAPE.
JUST RAPISTS.

Oh I’ve already been playing this game.
Frothy does realize that partial birth abortions are no longer performed in the US since the Supreme Court upheld banning the procedure 5 fucking years ago, right?
Why it has ANY relevance to the 2012 election is beyond me (unless, of course, it’s legalization is a possibility, which, as far as I know, it isn’t because, you know, SUPREME COURT).
Also, can Rick Sanotrum just go away? His face is so smug that I immediately have the urge to punch it. I hope God is real just so Santorum gets to spend eternity burning in Hell.
Love,
Rabble
He really does have a face that’s just begging to be punched.
That last gif is me, preparing to scroll through my dashboard at the end of the day.
For the record, D&X abortions represented less than 1% of all abortions performed in the US in 2000 before the procedure was federally banned nine years ago.

If more company leaders followed this example of selflessness instead of being so fucking greedy the economy wouldn’t be in a god damn nose dive right now. I mean really, just how much money do you really need?
