“Women are afraid of meeting a serial killer. Men are afraid of meeting someone...”

When Strangers Click, a 2011 documentary about online dating.
It reminds me of that famous Margaret Atwood quote: “Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.” It also reminds me of something written by one of the mods of Sex Worker Problems: “Misandry...

“one tiny thing that just struck me:
How far the show went out of its way to...”
– giandujakiss [x]
in a media landscape where men pressuring women and violating their boundaries is portrayed as natural in many ~innocent and romantic~ relationships and pretty much obligatory in ~edgy dangerous~ dynamics, I still love this to ABSOLUTE PIECES

Nowhere in the 10 commandments does it say “Do Not Rape” yet the 5th Satanic Rule Of The Earth is “Do not make sexual advances unless given the mating signal.” Go ahead and just let that sink in.

I just find it hilarious that eurovision was invented because europe was like “no more war guys, fight it out through songs”
i find it hilarious that it worked

in Europe we don’t say ‘I love you’ we say “12 points to…” which translates to “you are close to me” and I think that’s beautiful

New record this Summer… Not a Born and Raised “plus”… A new group of songs to bring the whole thing up to date with Summer 2013. I have that hunger that always precedes something meaningful. See you all soon. And thanks for the warm welcome back to the stage. Getting back on it a little at a time.

I’ve seen Elementary fans claiming their Sherlock is better than Sherlock’s because ours is an asshole and theirs is ‘sympathetic’ and ‘kind’.
I have nothing against Elementary, but may I just remind you - Sherlock is an asshole, because...

Last week, the director of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre suggested there were currently too many public school actors on stage and screen, as he unveiled a new project to train children from all walks of life.

GOT TICKETS!
FInally got tickets to go see John Mayer at the O2 in London. Had to pay extra mind you, but I suppose it’s worth it, hahahaha. 1 date in the UK is utterly ridiculous though. But now I’ve paid that much I think I’d hate it if he added another, lmao.
friendlyangryfeminist:
the brilliant thing about being a woman is that I’m punished for both trusting and distrusting men!
I should magically know which man is going to harm me by having a brief conversation with him. if I trust Bad Men, then, well. I should’ve known.
if I don’t trust Nice Men though, I’m an utter bitch who deserves violence. don’t I know most men are good people?
glintglimmergleam:
what it basically boils down to is this:
maaaybe i’m a feminist killjoy and freedom-of-speech oppressor who “can’t take a joke”
or maybe, just maybe
you’re a racist misogynist with a shitty sense of humor who “can’t take criticism”.
