“Cis and straight people can do as much propaganda as they want about cisness and heterosexuality, but as soon as we try to give the choice to children, they call it ‘brainwashing’.”
What were your poems about? You’ve gotten me curious.
My English teacher apologetically told me my poems were to controversial to tell in class (we’re in the poetry unit right now) and I can’t tell if I should be proud, concerned, or miffed.
If you do not reblog this, you are in fact lying.
Imagining a story in your head:
Writing down the story:
(someone asked about the full version of this, so here u go)
“Wait,” says Sam, “you had a publicist?”
“For my first five months at S.H.I.E.L.D,” says Steve. “Then she quit. Uh, decisively.”
“Well yeah, she had to keep you in line,” Bucky says with a half-smirk. “How many times did you make that poor lady want to sock you in the face?”
“Lost count,” Steve admits. “I did offer to let her, once. Seemed fair.”
Sam laughs. “I feel like you’re sitting on a story here.”
“There’s no story,” Steve tells him. Sam raises his eyebrows. Bucky’s half-smirk tilts towards a full smirk. “Seriously,” Steve repeats, “no story.”

Usually by inquiring why, as this does, based on the definition of feminism, seem a little bit strange.
You mean by saying that sex should be consensual? Because that’s basically all that feminists are saying.
If someone is an adjunct professor, it’s even worse (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/11/adjunct-faculty_n_4255139.html). According to that article, the average salary for an adjunct is between $20,000 and $25,000. I think the untenured column on this graph is higher than that because it’s including tenure-track positions.

(Trigger Warning: rape) Well, I couldn’t find any statistics on what percent of interactions in which a woman turns down sexual advances by a man end in violence. However, I did find a study on what percent of men are rapists. (http://www.davidlisak.com/wp-content/uploads/pdf/RepeatRapeinUndetectedRapists.pdf) It found that (roughly) 6.3% of men have raped or attempted to rape someone. The majority of those had done so more than once, and averaged 5.8 times. The rapists had also committed an average of roughly 10 “acts of interpersonal violence, including rape, battery, and child physical and sexual abuse.” 6.3% might not seem like a lot, but it’s definitely enough to justify trust issues.
too true.
