WHEN WE CROWDSOURCE SOMETHING AND ALL OF THE IDEAS SUCK

WHEN I FORWARD A HILARIOUSLY BAD P.R. EMAIL TO ANOTHER EDITOR

I need feminism beacuse

whoneedsfeminism:

I don’t need another one of my male “friends” or family members asking me if it “the wrong time of the month” every single time I get the slightest bit angry.

I’m a runner. I’m a yoga nerd. I’m a health blogger.

I’m one of the 2 out of 3 people in America who are “overweight.”

I’m also not defined by this number. Are you? SUBMIT THEM TO OUR PROJECT!

“Overweight” or “Normal” (depending on which BMI chart you believe)

I frequently struggle with being a “bad feminist,” because I’m into pretty things and like girly shit. Here’s an essay about that. 

Today in things that I am obsessed with for their ridiculousness: the McBaguette.

Awww. He made this about me!

Five days without @mshannabrooks reminded me that she’s pretty hard to do without.

I made vegan egg salad

And it was wonderful! I may not be religious (or eat eggs, really), but I can still get down with some egg salad. 

I don’t know who this girl is. But she is gorgeous.

I. Love. This.

I’ve been wanting some calaveras as a tattoo for a while for several reasons, and these are perfection.

I hope Rick Santorum goes bowling again and there are only pink bowling balls as far as the eye can see and he has to use one on camera. 

Bald Barbie is a pretty cool step—but I really wish Mattel would listen to consumers and roll out a body-positive one, next. Maybe it’s time to start a petition?

I have seen a lot of people stating that rape and sexual abuse aren’t normalized…

To which I would say:

Yes.

They.

Most.

Certainly.

Are.

To say that we live in a culture where everyone knows that rape and sexual abuse is wrong is patently incorrect. The fact that advertisers are constantly having to pull ads and apologize only after the point when they realize that it’s not cool to joke about rape is exactly indicative of this problem.

The fact that fraternities make “rape lists” is exactly indicative of this problem.

The fact that Facebook will censor images of same-sex couples kissing but not date-rate fan pages is exactly indicative of this problem.

And every. Single. Time. Someone comments to defend these kinds of ads and stories (‘they’re just jokes!’ or ‘lighten up!’), this fact is underscored.
