if you're a woman of color sick of racism that says you're aggressive, angry, domineering, ugly, unhygienic, rude, loud etc etc, just know that swinging the other way by forcing yourself to be feminine and quiet and dainty and soft and small and submissive and pretty and dependent is not going to save you

beauty rituals are so mundane. they’re not just normalised, they’re expected of us. and it makes them a hundred times more humiliating.

painting a new face on your own, perfectly normal face? humiliating.

wearing clothes that don’t let you sit comfortably, bend down, walk up the stairs…. degrading

paying other women to apply wax on your intimate parts and armpits and then rip your hair out? wtf even is that.

no matter how much time i spend around women i can’t get used to it: glued eyelashes, lip fillers, fake nails, exposing clothes, hairless, often malnourished bodies…. the thoughts about humiliation women put themselves through never leave my mind

frankly if a woman chose to go out and get pregnant on purpose just so she can abort it, I would still support her. there will never ever be a circumstance where I oppose or judge a woman for having an abortion. idc

10 Female Written Short Stories Everyone Should Read

I have seen a post circulating for a while that lists 10 short stories everyone should read and, while these are great works, most of them are older and written by white men. I wanted to make a modern list that features fresh, fantastic and under represented voices. Enjoy!

1. A Temporary Matter by Jhumpa Lahiri — A couple in a failing marriage share secrets during a blackout. 

2. Stone Animals by Kelly Link — A family moves into a haunted house.

3. Reeling for the Empire by Karen Russell — Women are sold by their families to a silk factory, where they are slowly transformed into human silkworms. 

4. Call My Name by Aimee Bender — A woman wearing a ball gown secretly auditions men on the subway. 

5. The Man on the Stairs by Miranda July — A woman wakes up to a noise on the stairs. 

6. Brownies by ZZ Packer — Rival Girl Scout troops are separated by race. 

7. City of My Dreams by Zsuzi Gartner — A woman works at a shop selling food-inspired soap and tries not to think about her past. 

8. A Good Man is Hard to Find by Flannery O’Connor — A family drives from Georgia to Florida, even though a serial killer is on the loose. 

9. Hitting Budapest by NoViolet Bulawayo — A group of children, led by a girl named Darling, travel to a rich neighborhood to steal guavas. 

10. You’re Ugly, Too by Lorrie Moore — A history professor flies to Manhattan to spend Halloween weekend with her younger sister.
