This shit is too funny

period.

i bleed each month to help make humankind a possibility. my womb is home to the divine. a source of life for our species. whether i choose to create or not. but very few times it is seen that way. in older civilizations this blood was considered holy. in some it still is. but a majority of people. societies. and communities shun this natural process. some are more comfortable with the pornification of women. the sexualization of women. the violence and degradation of women than this. they cannot be bothered to express their disgust about all that. but will be angered and bothered by this. we menstruate and they see it as dirty. attention seeking. sick. a burden. as if this process is less natural than breathing. as if it is not a bridge between this universe and the last. as if this process is not love. labour. life. selfless and strikingly beautiful. 

What age is a black boy, when he learns he’s scary?

Boy: I’m not ready for a relationship I’m sorry. Me: right…. *gets a girlfriend after you stop talking to him* Me: 😂😂

Reminder for those who don’t know, if you have a vagina, make sure to urinate immediately after you have P-in-V sex.  Bacteria can get in your urethra during P-in-V intercourse so as soon as you are done having sex, go to the bathroom to pee, even if it doesn’t feel like you need to, because even a little pee can flush out the bacteria and prevent a UTI.  I didn’t know about this and I got a UTI from my first time, and it was super awful and uncomfortable and unfortunately even those with good sex education rarely learn info like this.  I want everyone with a vagina to know how to prevent it because UTIs suck hard.  That is all.

As a child I never heard one woman say to me, “I love my body.” Not my mother, my elder sister, my best friend. No one woman has ever said, “I am so proud of my body.” So I make sure to say it to Mia, because a positive physical outlook has to start at an early age.

Your mental health comes before school baby, always. If its midnight, and you have an exam the next day but your hands have been shaking for the past hour and a half and you’re not so sure you want to be alive anymore, pull out that carton of Ben and Jerry’s and afterwards, go the fuck to bed. So what if you get a 68% on the exam the next day? You took care of yourself and at the end of the day that will always come before a high test score. To hell with anyone who tells you differently.

The scariest moment for me was when my cousin had a muscle spasm and almost dropped the comb on my ear. Forever traumatized.

Black girls everywhere know this pain…

Do we fall in love with people because of the way they look and the words they say and the things they do, or do we fall in love with people for the way we think they are? It’s wild how someone can give you one flower and you mistaken it for a bouquet. Are we in love with them because we make ourselves believe that they are the one we’ve been searching for? Are we just settling at the end of the day?

M.D.L // Excerpt from “Someone Like You”

"how often do you sin?"

Only when no one's watching: Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Pisces

Whenever I feel like it: Aries, Taurus, Sagittarius, Capricorn

All the time. I'm sinning right now: Gemini, Scorpio, Aquarius

Just your daily reminders:

Racists are a problem

White people are not

Homophobes are a problem

Straight people are not

Transphobes are a problem

Cis people are not

Sexists are a problem

Men are not

And most importantly,

Hating an innocent person solely because of their race, sexuality, or gender makes you a fucking asshole

Just some actual daily reminders:

All white people do racist things without being aware they are

All straight people do homophobic things without being aware that they are.

All Cis people do transphobic things without being aware that they are.

All men do sexist things without being aware that they are.

Saying things like ‘some men’, ‘some cis people’ absolves the blame of individuals and only seeks to comfort those with privilege and power.

When a post says ‘some X’, the X will always assume that they are not because THEY ARE NOT AWARE.

And most importantly,

It’s called metonymy, when anyone who is oppressed makes an exasperated statement like ‘i hate straight people’, they are substituting straight people for the concept of a system and a culture that teaches, incentives, and legitimizes homophobic acts and normalizes homophobic acts so that straight people constantly do homophobic things without realizing it and that’s really fucking annoying.

And just as important,

The concept of sjws dehumanizes marginalized people and categorizes them as an ‘angry and emotional’ stereotype and only adds to the oppression of marginalized people under the guise of being ‘fair’, while the only thing you are doing is cushioning privileged people from their own ignorance and privilege.

Dear John (Green), You wrote an entire essay online about how groundbreaking it is for a teenage girl to kiss a teenage boy in a tragic movie about being white and pretty and dying. Meanwhile, the only times I see girls like me getting kissed on screen is when they’re being felt up by some old man in a tragic movie about being colored and poor and abused. Brown teenage girls do not get love stories like the movies, even though we are taught straight from the womb that we are no more than curves and wild fight that still shines in our eyes after the white boy kisses us in secret, after the white boy does not want to be seen with us in front of his friends. Because we’ll always bring drama and bitterness, with our loud voices and attitude, until we are finally broken on the night something is slipped into our drinks, or we’re evicted from our house, or we lose the basketball game, or a family member climbs on top of us, and wraps the silver screen around our bodies like butcher’s paper for the meat that we have been portrayed as since birth. No, we do not get Shakespeare quoted to us, instead we become the bitter narrative, the comfort to the suburban parent, thank goodness their little girl is the one with the “nice young man,” and not the one getting her teeth knocked out by the “thug”, and why does Hollywood only find colored girls palatable when they are hardened by the world, to the point where we see them as grown women? You want groundbreaking story telling? Write about a girl with brown skin who is so filled with joy, each one of her breaths is like tasting cinnamon, and she lightens even the darkest moments. Write about a hijabi girl, who is so empowered, that she can convince a generation of young women of every shade that we don’t need to kiss a boy first to feel in charge of ourselves. Write about a Latina girl, who is so in love with life that she tiptoes on the heads of her problems. Portray colored girls as soft, as naive, as quickly, as teenage girls in love, because we deserve a narrative as sweet as diverse and as powerful as we are.
