They don’t care about you. You may vote for them, but they hate every fiber of your being. They would have you live without access to cancer screenings, to basic healthcare. They would rather have you die on an operating table than risk harming a fetus. They would have you beaten and raped and then limit your legal rights in pursuing the case. They don’t want you to have access to birth control, or abortion after you become pregnant because you couldn’t afford BC because they want to punish you for having sex, for having a vagina.
Republican women: Republican men hate you. Remember that. Remember this day.
Yes.
I’m not usually one to chastise people for their political standings, but uh, THIS.
I’m sorry, but this offends me. I’m not a registered Republican, or a registered anything for that matter. in fact, i think politics are fucking stupid and a waste of time and big words, but that’s just me.
But don’t try and blame Republicans for YOU making the conscious decision to fuck your boyfriend unprotected, and don’t pull the ‘can’t afford birth control’ card. they’re are millions of places that will gladly hand it over for free, and in any form.
get your heads out of your asses and realize it’s YOUR OWN DAMN FAULT IF YOU GET PREGNANT. not republicans wtf?
Hey guess what? Birth control FAILS, condoms break, there is no 100% contraceptive. Not everyone can afford a method, to suggest so is classist. And maybe they weren’t being safe and she happened to get pregnant and she’s not ready. You’re saying to basically just deal with it? Fuck no! You’re asking that womyn, trans* man, etc., to carry a child for 9.5 months against their will and consent? I can’t speak for the latter but I’m not blaming Republicans for anything but assaulting reproductive rights and services to the American people. Republicans are trying to redefine rape so if you’re drugged or on a date or have a mental illness and you get raped and pregnant you can’t get a legal abortion. They’re trying to defund Planned Parenthood, which is not only about providing abortion services but providing health care to low income womyn, men, and teens. So please, kindly, shut the fuck up!
HEY FUCK YOU thelaziness.
61% of women who get abortions are already mothers. A lot of them married. Are they not supposed to have sex with their partners? The fuck is wrong with you?
And NONE of the federal funding for Planned Parenthood goes toward performing abortions. NONE OF IT. And less than 5% of the services performed at Planned Parenthood are abortions. The majority of services they perform are annual checkups, prescribing medications, STD tests, and reproductive disease monitoring and pre-screening.
You ignorant piece of shit. You would take that away from the millions of low-income women who rely on that shit every day?
Do me a favor and fall off the planet.
^ WORD.
Nourish your rage, darlings.
THIS WHOLE THING.
SERIOUSLY. I need to educate myself some more and then sit down and have a looooong talk with daddy dearest, the staunch conservative republican. (Though I don’t think he’s as conservative as he claims to be)
BARBRA STREISAND FOREVER AND ALWAYS
…Hogwarts great hall ceiling at night? That doesn’t sound like a very flattering name. Let’s consult my all-knowing mother tomorrow.
Say it, sister.
Hillary delivers the best response to yesterday’s attack on Planned Parenthood
THIS. I don’t really like you, Hillary, but you can sure tell it like it is.
Her posture in this picture screams shame and insecurity at me.
I have this to say.
LADIES:
DO NOT BE INSECURE. That blood that’s flowing out of your vagina? That comes from your uterus.
That blood shows that you are a uterus-bearer. You can bear children. You can make life, and breath. That is a wondrous, magical thing.
That is something no man could ever do.
Be PROUD, ladies!
In response to this bullshit.
You know what, Tumblr? I think 1000+ of you guys are grossly underestimating the awesomeness of having female friends. You can steal their clothes and talk about both Lady Issues and Non-Lady Issues with them and if you happen to get blackout drunk in their company, you can be pretty sure that they will not take advantage of you (aside from maybe taking some regrettable pictures and refusing to untag you in them). They can counsel you on things that, let’s face it, guys generally do not understand (both shallow and serious). I love having guy friends, but I also loooove having female friends. I don’t know why there’s this stigma surrounding girl-girl friendships, but it needs to end.
You say “Girls stab you in the back?” No, kids, bad friends stab you in the back. Gender has nothing to do with it. “Girls are catty?” Not all of us! Just like how not all guys aren’t super-cool chill bros who “have your back” all the time! The genders aren’t divided along such simple lines. Stop acting like they are, and stop encouraging lady-on-lady hate. Because honestly, if you don’t get along with any of the girls you know, I hate to be the bearer of bad news… but the chances are good that you are the problem.
Girls are great! Some of them, anyway. So are guys. There are issues with select ones here and there, but there’s a lot of great people of either gender, sex, or even those inbetween that I am too naive and ignorant to classify other than that. I’m not saying you guys are an ‘other’, cause you’re not, I’m just saying that I don’t know how to say it better.
TL;DR people are pretty cool, it’s just that a lot of them suck.
NOT ALL GIRLS ARE THIS. NOT ALL GUYS ARE THAT. Stop perpetuating hate based on gender. It’s not okay.
Conservatives are fond of willfully ignorant statements like: Our tax dollars shouldn’t go to abortion, so Planned Parenthood should have its funding stripped. We all know this is a lie. The information to debunk this claim is widely and readily available. Aside from the…
HERE IS A LIST OF LIES YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY SILENCE: four ladies reclaiming our orgasms.
