it's so funny when i see someone arguing that Effie being in SOTR was just "pointless fan service" cause “it doesnt make any sense that she had been with them for that long" cause... do you know what actually makes no sense? Plutarch and Haymitch risking the few things they still had after war to outright fight with President Coin for a woman that, for all we got from Katniss’s narrative, was nothing more than a capitol coworker they had to endure….
Now with the background Sunrise on the reaping provided us, we know for a fact that Effie Trinket wasn’t only District Twelve Escort; but also part of the original team. This was the piece that was missing to justify why Plutarch and Haymitch, who wouldn’t risk their lives for just some random capitol acquaintance, were willing to fight against Coin, the woman that both of them knew wasn’t any better than Snow, to guarantee that she wouldn’t be taken by the Purge and executed among the other capitols
Effie being in sotr was not just fan service, and if you can’t see that…i don’t know, maybe try reading again
the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.
Police: *leading sex workers into a squad car to be taken to jail*
Sex work prohibitionist: “I called the police! You’re all free now! No more patriarchal violence! No need to thank me!”
my sister didn’t realise until last year that she’d been a bully in high school of the mean girl variety. she’s 23 years old. if you think all harm has to be intentional for it to count you’re kind of missing the part where this shit happens all the time. nobody goes around thinking they’re being evil. sometimes they do shit that sucks and nobody calls them out on it and they go home and find ways to justify it to themselves in their head. causing harm + ‘being a bad person’ + fucking up on purpose are all independent variables
Problematic nature of blowjobs aside, a man telling you that he will miss your blowjobs and not you is :/ :/

remembering the time I called american psycho (a satirical film about toxic masculinity) a dark comedy and the overwhelming response was 'oh so u think men killing sex workers is funny? u think THAT'S funny?' like no I find a patrick batemen listening to 'i'm walking on sunshine', killing jared leto while wearing a clear raincoat and giving a dissertation on huey lewis n the news, using 'I need to return some video tapes' to get out of awkward situations, throwing a hissy fit about business cards, dropping a chainsaw down a flight of stairs, thinking an atm is telling him to feed it cats, and crying hysterically under a desk is funny. but thank u for ur wonderful insight
