Trans women are oppressed as well. As women fighting for women we should be fighting for ALL women. What terfs don't understand is when trans women are free, cis women shall also be free.

Are the “women” in the room with us right now? Why should FEMinism, a movement about FEMale liberation and rights, include males? You know, the very group of people that oppressed us in the first place?

Also this is unrelated to the point but I hate?? when people?? talk like this???

"Nobody gave a voice to these Greek Mythology female characters."

Euripides after writing Andromache, Andromeda, Antigone, Danaë, Electra, Hecuba, Helen, Iphigenia in Aulis, Iphigenia in Tauris, Medea, Merope, Wise Melanippe, Captive Melanippe, Peliades, The Phoenician Women, The Trojan Women etc.

My doctor and therapist: now with this autism + ADHD diagnosis you need to learn to unmask because masking all the time will make you burn out again and feel like shit

Other people: well it's just interesting how after getting the diagnosis you suddenly start behaving like that I mean I'm not saying you're faking it's just funny how you suddenly cannot be normal like you were before

male civility is a facade.

her pronouns are Marinette/Ladybug

I don’t take the men in my life seriously at all anymore. I have learned not to even engage with them about any serious topic. If they bring up something, I brush it off asap.

Their job sucks? “Yup” is my go-to response.

They are in pain? “Sucks bro.”

Their team lost? Blank stare.

I could walk them through the steps involved with improving their education, communication skills, and employment viability, but they won’t listen.

I could offer to obtain pain medication and suggest a doctor visit, but they will only become dependent on my nursing services and will never stir themselves to address the root problem.

I don’t watch male sports, most television, or engage with male-oriented content of any kind if I can help it. Best I can manage is a shrug when they ask me about pop culture.

Once I figured out that every interaction men initiated preceded an attempt to exploit me, I stopped playing their game and they scattered like cockroaches in search of another food source.

All that extra energy that used to go toward men is now invested in me. I have time to read, work out, make myself nutritious food, enjoy nature, do yoga, rest, and listen to music (female artists only).

My life is improving every day.

Remember when creating new (healthy) habits, that you are replacing the bad ones. Adding new things to your life will absolutely feel tiring and time consuming. But it is because you are looking at it based on how you operate now. The goal is to replace. New, healthier habits will require different things from your lifestyle. It will also expand your mind, change your perspective and open you up to new interests and way of living.

Hey *hand on shoulder* you know that Greece, along with most of the balkan countries, has been under ottoman turkish rule for more than 400 years? You know that Greece today has many economic problems today, despite it's history being rich?

You know that Greece is very prone to forest fires and natural disasters?

Also, do you know that Greece, along with Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as Montenegro... They are all protesting against corruption, and no one talked about it.

You talk about wanting to have temples to worship in modern day, but you don't care about the land that those temples would be built on?

Greece may be an Orthodox Christian country. But trust me, the gods are still very much living there. Their spirit is still there. Poseidon is still ruling the waves, Zeus is still watching over in the sky, Demeter is taking care of the crops.

All i am asking is... Spread awareness. I am saying this on behalf of my greek friend, firstly, who has complained to me about their issues not being heard. LEARN HISTORY. STUDY CURRENT WORLD EVENTS. SEND LOVE TO THE LAND OF GREECE, WHO HAS ENDURED GREAT HARDSHIPS.

Bitches be like ‘I’m so tired and sleepy’ and then stay up doing hyperfixtation shit for the next 5 hours
