Rape Crimes: Victims On Both Sides
letterstomycountry:
Rikki Klieman, a former prosecutor, uses the Greg Kelly rape allegations as a springboard to discuss the way society handles accusations of rape:
As a former prosecutor of sex crimes in Massachusetts and as a member of the board of the Rape Treatment Center in Los Angeles, I am a fierce champion of women (and men) who have suffered rape. This heinous violation can ruin a...

I have a problem with feminism...
Because I have a problem with being identified as the constant victim in an ever changing social landscape.
Feminism fears the day that women realize they’ve stopped being victims, because at that point feminism must dissolve, and it enjoys the sound of its own voice too much to let THAT happen.
I’m not a victim. I don’t need feminism.
daisysnotebook:
You do not love everybody, and you’re lying if you insist otherwise. You may enjoy socialising with different people, but you really only love those who meet your personal standards. This isn’t just true for libertarians who recognize that everyone is an individual and that you cannot possibly get along with everyone. Every person chooses his or her friends. You’re very deceiving...

I don’t believe in facts. I don’t trust science. Both are created by humans, and humans are flawed. Our beliefs do not exist in a vaccuum, but are rather socially constructed in a sexist/racist/prejudiced, royally fucked up system. Facts are rarely useful, as they are often used to justify the status quo. They stop people from using their own judgement...

I believe socialism is the laziest, most inefficient, egregious form of helping your neighbor that has ever been devised.
It relies on everyone being reduced to nothing so that nobody feels cheated.

There is nothing more pretentious than assuming...
How dare you presume to know what’s in my best interest, or the interest of anyone other than yourself?
Even if you think you’re seeking good, it’s based in your own self-aggrandizement. It’s centered around the idea that you are an omnipotent being that seeks the betterment of those around them. You are not.
If you try to enforce, or have the government enforce, your...

Women aren’t drafted because they’re assumed to be weaker.
Women get lighter prison sentences because they can’t be held responsible for their behavior.
Women usually get the kids after a divorce because they’re assumed to take the “inferior” motherhood role.

Now, allegedly educated PoC’s tell me that I “ascribe to whiteness” for not choosing to act as they do or share their opinions on certain issues. Me being black does not mean that I have to hold certain values.

even if you actively disagree with feminist principles SIMPLY BECAUSE feminist define feminism as an equality movement.
Movements have the freedom to define themselves as anything they want, but they’re almost always going to paint themselves as supporting an idea that no one actively disagrees with, for the sake of good publicity. Put more faith in the actions of a movement than their...

Every time Mitt Romney tries to present as a middle class American he looks like the kind of bizarre automaton you’d see in a window display at a shop in the 19th century. It’s just so transparent and awkward.
The riches aren’t what’s bugging me Mitt, it’s your weird fixation with hiding them in the worst possible way.
feministsaresexist:
Gender equality won’t ever be achieved through biased movements.
A movement for women is going to focus on women, a lot of the time not considering men, not even the minimum needed to be given to at least not oppress them while winning women’s rights. It’s the same for the men’s movement, no matter how small and ignored it may be. That’s why I’m not a feminist, and it’s why...
