ineedmasculism:

I need masculism because society’s expectations for women to be thin and pretty and polite and weak are the things that women are good at and it’s really hard to be super buff like society wants me to be so can we focus on the people actually suffering for once?

You’re kidding, right?

Lauryn Hill Ordered by the Court to Undergo “Counseling” Due to her “Conspiracy Theories”
The name of Lauryn Hill’s breakout album was The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill but it now appears that the powers that be would like her to record a new album called The Re-Education of Lauryn Hill. After appearing in court for tax evasion, Hill was sentenced to three months in jail PLUS she must attend “counseling” due to her “conspiracy theories”.
According to the IBTimes, Hill told the court: “I am a child of former slaves who had a system imposed on them. I had an economic system imposed on me.” Furthermore, Hill also believes that artists are being oppressed by (what the article calls) “a plot involving the military and media”. Because of these statements, Hill was ordered to undergo “counseling”, which is a way of saying that she is mentally ill and that she needs some sort of re-programming session regain “sanity”.
In 2012, Hill published a thoughtful letter describing the corruption, the oppression and the control of the music industry and her desire to escape it.  In one part of the letter, Lauryn states
“It was this schism and the hypocrisy, violence and social cannibalism it enabled, that I wanted and needed to be freed from, not from art or music, but the suppression/repression and reduction of that art and music to a bottom line alone, without regard for anything else.  Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual.  I Love making art, I Love making music, these are as natural and necessary for me almost as breathing or talking.  To be denied the right to pursue it according to my ability, as well as be properly acknowledged and compensated for it, in an attempt to control, is manipulation directed at my most basic rights!  These forms of expression, along with others, effectively comprise my free speech!  Defending, preserving, and protecting these rights are critically important, especially in a paradigm where veiled racism, sexism, ageism, nepotism, and deliberate economic control are still blatant realities!!!”
(See my article entitled Lauryn Hill’s Tumblr Letter on the Music Business for the full letter).

wow, way to fucking delegitimize and pathologize the experiences of a Black woman by abusing mental health resources and language to avoid the real shit she brings up. 

WHUT?????? Oh FUCK YOU white people. FUCK YOU

You’re Not Cute. Have More Orgasms. “The 10 Things Women Need to Realize In 2013.” (Written by a Man.)

marrymejasonsegel:

publicshaming:

So I recently came across this website, Elite Daily. It calls itself “The Voice of Generation-Y.”

image

The link I stumbled on was to an article titled “The 10 Things Women Need to Realize in 2013.” OK. Let’s check this out…

image

OH, BOY. What the fuck is this? The first photo attached to the article should have tipped me off, but I was too focused on the name of the author…

image

That’s right. EDDIE CUFFIN. A dude is about to lecture women on what they should “realize” in 2013. But, not just any dude. It’s says right there in his bio: “THE MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE OFFICE.”

Let’s take a look at a few of these “things”…

image

“Ladies, realize that in 2013, you are not cute.” 

image

“Back to to the kitchen women and make me a sandwich.”

image

Well, shit. Thank you GUY for explaining this stuff to women! I mean, one of the points in this article was about getting men to “eat out your ‘box.’”  And all that along with the objectifying pics? What would a girl living in the 1950s…err…2013 do without this article?!

But, don’t worry! Eddie Cuffin has got more for all of you seeking his advice. Gems such as…

image

“The 21 Signs She’s Expired.”

image

That’s right, girls. If you are over the age of 19 and 1/2, hang up the boots and please deposit yourself in the closest trash bin. 

image

Misogynistic, transphobic AND he hates Mila Kunis! Eddie Cuffin is a catch!

image

What a gentleman.

But, don’t worry! Eddie Cuffin won’t leave you hanging now that you know your girlfriend is “expired” like the cold cuts sitting in the back of your fridge…

image

Eddie Cuffin’s gonna let you know how to cheat on her with “15 Steps to Successfully Cheat on Your Girlfriend!” Eddie says women are like chicken (expired chicken?) and stale bread!  The man who wants to empower women in 2013 with cooking lessons and orgasms would also like them to know that their value depreciates over time (because women are nothing but a commodity, duh!). GIRLS, “you’re getting older and not getting any tighter” and by not stopping time you “compel” men to cheat! IT’S YOUR FAULT, LADIES…

image

“15 Easy Steps to Managing Your Mistress.” Fellas! Your pal Eddie’s got you covered here too! Because it’s 2013 (Eddie’s got a real infatuation for 2013) and as it says right there above…It’s that time in your life, and not just yours, everyman’s life where he ”GROW A SACK AND GET A MISTRESS.”

image

“Women lie a lot.” You hear that men? Women are EVIL LIARS. Why can’t they just be truthful while you lie and cheat on them?! GIRLS ARE THE WORST.

But, what if  you fell for the evil voodoo women and she went ahead on her very own and decided to get pregnant (THE NERVE)? Don’t worry, Eddie Cuffin’s got you covered here too!

image

“Many poor men.” If only they had Eddie Cuffin’s brilliant mind and knew the “20 East Steps to Raising a Whore” so they could do the exact opposite!

Steps like…

image

image

Letting her get involved in fun activities like cheerleading and gymnastics! Only WHORES play sports!

image

Telling her she can’t date a black man! Because we all know women will go out and do the exact opposite! AND ONLY WHORES DATE BLACK MEN. (Eddie Cuffin: misogynistic, transphobic, and now racist too!)

image

Put her on birth control at 13! Because we all know girls don’t have sex UNLESS they are on birth control. No birth control, no sex, and there’s like no teen moms in 2013…the Voice of Generation-Y, people!

In case these listicles full of amazing advice weren’t enough for ya, Eddie’s got a Twitter account too! 140 characters of pure wisdom!

Eddie Cuffin of Elite Daily, folks! The Voice of Generation Y (Don’t Girls Like Me, I Am So Alone).

Yo I hate wearing heels but I’ll rock some god damn stilletos if it means i could step on this dude’s head and puncture his temple.

This actually makes me sick to my stomach.

The Onion and other “liberal” White comedians (see @scATX’s comment on “The Bill Maher syndrome”) love to engage in “isms” in their humor and expect not to be called out on it because they are, well “liberals.” They want feminists and other progressives to ONLY focus on…

Ask me anything.

25, 32, 37
asks Anonymous

25: What physical traits do you look for in a potential interest?
I wouldn’t rule anyone out based on a physical trait, but I’ve never dated anyone with prominent arm tattoos, so that seems potentially appealing to me. 

32: Anybody on Tumblr that you’d go on a date with?
I’m in a relationship, but if I weren’t then sure, loads of people. Anyone that I follow, definitely. 

37: . If a sexy person was pursuing you, but you knew he/she was in relationship, would you go for it?
Honestly, probably. But our relationship would have to be strictly casual with no possibility for a future. I already know the person cheats on significant others, so I likely wouldn’t risk commitment.

20, 26, Favorite Love and Rockets song?
asks therealashleydionne

20: What were you doing last night at 12 AM?
Unpacking stuff from my apartment, watching Cupcake Wars with my mother, and painting my nails. It’s a thrilling life I lead, I know. 

26: Name four things that you wish you had:
A man, a plan, a canal, Panama.
(No, not really, but I do wish for the second of those things. Maybe that, some Belgian waffles, Mediafire to work again, and somebody to watch Vincent Price movies
with late at night.

Alas, the only Love and Rockets I know well is the comic, so I’d gladly take suggestions as far as songs go. :)

Womp. got any big summer plans?
asks sigur-roskolnikov

Not entirely—I hope to fly to CO around my birthday to see Brandi Carlile (and my brother who lives there, ha).

I *did* however, hear back from a grad school in Chicago I applied to, and I was offered a graduate assistantship to their Women and Gender Studies department. Still not sure if I’ll accept, but it was neat to find out somewhere’ll have me. :)
