#damn those white feminists tho wanting feminism and shit

[tervacious]

Hence the danger, the vast and subtle danger, of so educating one half the population of a free State, that it has no vivid conception of Rights.  Why should we wonder at the low tone which habitually prevails at present in relation to public affairs, when the women who stand as guardians at the fountain sources and household shrines of thought are trained to believe that there are no Rights, but only Privileges, Expediences, Immunities?

Mary Putnam Jacobi, Address to Committee on Suffrage, New York State Constitutional Convention, 1894

By the way, a wild read, this one, because it was literally the extreme conservative view on women’s rights of the day, and yet it had gems like this bit.  Oh, yeah, and actually did some real advocating for women’s rights.

Hey do all of the greek god asks

Long post alert

Aphrodite: what you find attractive in a person

Lots of stuff really. But in mostly personality and interests over looks. U can be not really the most good lookin but be the most wonderful person. But u could also be the most beautiful thing ive ever laid eyes on but you're trash of a person. So looks dont matter much to me. But in a person i like if we share interests like art, music, books, and if youre really nice and stuff too

Apollo: favourite piece of music

Ooooo thats hardddd. Just ONE?? Howwww?! Ughhhh. Ok hm idk abt a FAVORITE but i really love heavy by johnnie guilbert and uhh i love ghost and heroin by badflower along with a bazillion others

Ares: opinion on war

If u mean infinity war? Um THAT MOVIE WAS SAD BUT AWESOME AF BUT THAT END THO AAAAAAAAA

Artemis: favourite animal and why

Snakesssss. I just really love snakes. I love the creepiness abt the lil beans. I love how they look. AND I LOVE WHEN THEY WEAR LIL HATS

Athena: share a piece of wisdom

Hades: do you believe in life after death?

Like heaven/hell? Idk. Sorta. But i don't really believe it as an afterlife. I think of it as u dead, thats where u go. Over with. But the thought of living like a 100 yrs then being gone for the rest of time sounds stupid like cmon those dudes in the bible can live for thousands of years and we get an average of like 75? Nah. But idk yet

Helios: opinion on tanning

I am already tan. I get more pale in winter n stuff but in summer my skin turns a golden brown color more. Kinda like the color of a cooked hotdog?

Hephaestus: do you think disability can ruin a relationship?

Oof hmm. What kind of disability? Like depression? (wait does it count as one?) I say it can yea maybe but if your partner is loving and supportive and is trying to help then i say you'll be okay

Hera: opinion on feminism

Idk i feel like im sort of a feminist myself. Like i hate that women don't have the same rights as men. Dude hear this. Me and my bro were arguing with our grampa about Hillary clinton or having a woman President and so my bro said to my grampa "so if tam (me) ran for President u wouldn't vote for her? Just cause she's a girl?" And my grampa said "*laughs* yeah i mean i love ya hun but women dont need to be president. Its a mans job. Men are supposed to be the leaders not women. Tge bible says so. No i wouldn't vote for u" and i got pissed cause wtf man??? What's wrong with u?? And then we kept arguing and then he was like *fake laughs* nah i was jk hun u know id vote for u youre my granddaughter. And i called him a liar and that he was lying because i know when hes lying. Then he started being racist abt smtn and then my mom got fed up and we left. I wouldn't talk to my grampa and he got mad so he said I was the one being stupid. Yeah sure ok believe that

Hermes: last text you sent

Uh it was to my best friend and it was "Not a big fan of hp huh?" But before that it was "That's not fai!r everyone has that one book they dont finish when they start on another. And when they dont finish it it usually means they weren't that interested in it. Or they really wanna read this new book cause its hard to focus on the old book when u have the new book and can read it whenever instead"

Persephone: is climate change really a thing or is everyone just overreacting?

I say its a thing!! Everythings changing and i dont think its for the better

Poseidon: list three fears

1. Momo coming to life and chasing after me and finally catching me then making me stare closely into her eyes while killing me slowly

2. Spiders ( @cristal-kyd1280 including jarvis)

3. Dying/dying by me being stupid like skydiving or eating a cup of apple seeds for no reason

Pan: opinion on gay rights

I fucking WHOLEHEARTEDLY support gay rights!!! I feel fucking ashamed cause i haven't always......(thanks mom, dad) but over the years ive gotten a bit more supportive and stuff but especially in summer last year one day after our shift at the library whenever my friend cadence came out as pan/bi/gay to me while she waited with me for my parents to pick me up. Also especially since i got tumblr and saw how amazing the lgbtq are. Like dude most of my friends are gay um and its fucking awesome?? Like for example dude my friend lucas is bi and i could talk to him abt boys n stuff and how cute different dude celebrities are xD Also i learned alot abt what pansexual and bisexual and stuff was exactly (my mom fuckin told me pan was when a person likes anyone. Even ANIMALS. She fuckin disgusted me like wtf who says that??) But now I'm ready to fight whenever any one even my fam starts being homophobic. Also i want to start reading more about the lgbtq. (I loved svthsa) But yea i say gay rights should be supported by fuckin EVERYONE and NO ONE should be homophobic and if u are like bitch keep that shit to yourself before i slug u

Hestia: describe your ideal house

Idk? Like i want an apartment for a while before an actual house yknow? But when/if i do get one eventually idk id like....just a house? Not a big one but not tiny either. Uhhh i wsnt a room just for my books and one for like an art room. Besides that? I cant think of anything lol

Dude it took like an hr and a half to answer all these holy shit

[robo-ruby]

Wow. Lol. Yeah sure. “He” decided to be ashamed “his” whole life. “He” just wants to game the system so “he” can go to a rape center. You sound insane. What are you so scared of? 
Sure sure tho I’m the idiot. I’m living your bullshit lifetime original movie. The “man” I fell in love with, who happens to be a great person, empathic and kind human… I don’t know if you realize we’re talking about a real person…. “he” wanted to suppress “his” real *identity* Do you know what that is? It would be awesome if it was as you so intelligently put it, “feels.” And yes your understanding of what female & woman means are incorrect. If this shit was just about someone’s feelings there’d be no problem. That shit is ducking easy. Feelings pass. So what about the 5 year old that realized in terror that instead of the little boy that everyone says she was, she was a girl? Let’s be really clear. You aren’t in danger from a person that can’t use the men’s room because she or they might not be safe. What bathroom should they use? The bushes? I doubt transgender issues have made you suicidal.
But it kills a horribly high percentage of transgender people … I guess you’d be thrilled. Now they can hide from you in the bathroom stall until you leave. You have any info on all these hetro predators trying to get to you in the ladies room? Because last I checked no real man wants to be effeminate. You know how demonized being “feminine ” has become. It’s considered an insult. So go ahead. Tell me I married a con man. My life is a sham. He’s playing a long game to rape as many unsuspecting women in bathrooms as possible. Wonder when we’ll hear about that in the news. Oh wait. That doesn’t happen ever. It’s transpeople that are raped and murdered. If some one is going to attack you, it’s more likely they will be someone you already know. Not a stranger ina bathroom. Why? Because rapists are cowards. Two separate family members of mine have been raped. In both cases it happened in their own homes and not in public, not in some alley, and not in the women’s room. If your concern was really safety of women, you’d stop wasting your time here, and go help little boys that are scared because they realize they are girls and don’t know what to do. You’d care that transwomen are beaten & murdered … you’d not only care, it would be a social issue you stand up for. Because honestly, transwomen don’t give a fuck about you. And they certainly don’t want to fuck a close minded bigot. Generally I find in life people that have been persecuted to an active and violent extreame are generally not very antagonistic. Being traumatized will do that. So yes go yell at some cis white bros, but leave transwomen alone. It’s clear my 34 years have given me a detailed understanding of difficult topics, and empathy for others. I hope you get there, ducky. Honestly as a woman how do *you* not get it? You are ducking ruining feminism & giving us a bad name. It’s why so many are scared to be lumped with the likes of you “I’m not a feminist but.” Oh ducky, you can be angry. And helping us change the inequalities is great! I can’t wait for the day when men & women don’t have to be segregated in athletics. It’s so antiquated and misinformed. Go look at any woman invested in her sport and realize you are saying she can’t compete. She can’t take a man down? That’s bullshit. Go watch some roller derby and tell me those woman couldn’t rough it in the hockey rink. There are no “keys” to men getting whatever they want. That is the state of our culture currently. If a dude wants to rape someone he can get it done with out claiming to be a woman. So what do you have to say about the psychology of our trans sister? … because you’re losing ground fast. And at this point I think I can guess, but go ahead wow me. And yes, your definition of “woman” is meaningless. 
It’s incomplete & incorrect, because as much as I’d love to take credit for the advancements in the study of the human brain, it is in fact how one identifies at their core. It’s one of the most basic fundamentals to cognitive wellness. You don’t have to believe in science, but it’s still true. 
If I’m talking fairy speak to you, you need to learn more science. It’s not magic.
Identity = gender. It’s not a fad to pick up at hot topic. It is who you are your whole damn life. My wife is my wife. 
And you could stand to make some transfriends…. Instead of preaching about a lifestyle that you can turn off and on when you’re feeling upset. Go talk to people living with it every day. Go learn some empathy. And, stop making a fool of yourself online. Transwomen are your sisters too, whether you choose to accept them or not. So if you want to stand up for your sisters if you really got all that vitriol and rage stand up for your trans sisters too. They are feminists in our ranks and they aren’t going anywhere.

@velvetviolette My darling wife, sticking up for me and all of my sisters.
