This is our Post-Feminist Society.
Nov. 9th, 2009 09:41 pmThis is the Rape Culture right here.
We're not just soaking in it. We're DROWNING in it. It is choking us.
It is killing us. It is hurting us and tearing us apart. The more pervasive it becomes, the less women will trust men. The less we will engage. And when that happens, when our rights are broken, everyone loses.
Every single fucking ONE of us.
When you laugh at a rape joke, you're hurting us. When you call a woman a "slut", you are hurting us. When you accept the status quo and stay quiet you hurt us.
Don't ever forget it. It's here, it's happening now. It's past the time to speak the fuck up and let the world know:
THIS IS NOT RIGHT.
