Bite Me, Beautiful: lishra: If you are a man who takes issue with feminists using the term...:

If you are a man who takes issue with feminists using the term “men” to refer to men as a class, I suggest you take up your complaints with the dudes who are making saints like you look so bad.

Women are not your problem. If you have enough time to complain to a woman about how…

fuckyeahfeminists:

WTF! I am so mad at this.

Because men don’t rape men?

Because the thing we should complain about when we hear about RAMPANT SEXUAL VIOLENCE is that men and women work together

Is he implying that if he’s left alone with women he wouldn’t be able to control himself?

Does he really think that low of men that he thinks being in the mere presence of women they would assault them

How can you use genius sarcastically and misspell the word “assaults?”

What exactly does “normal” to dark skin mean? So dark skin isn’t normal? Dove is fucked up.

What the hell

yeah my friend showed me this and what can i do

2013, every body.

Ok. I’m convinced that bottles of DOVE LOTION and it’s distributors are racist fucks.

plus dove sells skin-lightening products in a lot of countries

Dove are also owned the same company who owns lynx
(google ‘the lynx effect’ for your daily dose of misogyny) Dove are evil fucks

but guuuuuuuys ~*~real beauty campaign~*~!!!!!!!

I say this all the time when some white feminist talks about dove’s ‘real beauty’ campaign. They’ve been peddling skin lightening cream to desis for years

“Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it’s to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential-as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth. You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them.”

“

I wanted to write this to tell other women that the decision to have a mastectomy was not easy. But it is one I am very happy that I made. My chances of developing breast cancer have dropped from 87 percent to under 5 percent. I can tell my children that they don’t need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer.

It is reassuring that they see nothing that makes them uncomfortable. They can see my small scars and that’s it. Everything else is just Mommy, the same as she always was. And they know that I love them and will do anything to be with them as long as I can. On a personal note, I do not feel any less of a woman. I feel empowered that I made a strong choice that in no way diminishes my femininity.

“Indeed, the solitary reading experience is presented as an emotional investment, drawing out powerful and often unexpected depths of feeling that lead them to question who they are and how they perceive the world around them.”
