It’s so weird to me how Taylor Swift’s fans had no problem with her taking her music off Spotify, but people who didn’t even listen to her music got so offended over it.
What’re some strategies you’ve used to shut down sexism when you encounter it? Like I never know what to say when it happens. Do you have some sentence frames or something thatve been effective?
It’s not complicated and dramatic for me like it was when I was 20. I’ve said stuff as simple as:
“Dude, you can’t say shit like that about her. It’s so disrespectful.”
“You’re taking your anger toward one woman and using it to judge all women. What if someone you were into did that to you?”
“You have to understand that women have to be more on the defensive about guys and respect that boundary no matter what your intentions are.”
“If you don’t like her profile then just don’t message her. Sending her mean shit is just bullying and you’re honestly too old for that.”
These are all paraphrases I can remember telling guy friends. I used to think I had to have a sit down conversation and quote bell hooks and shit, but it’s literally as simple as vocally and explicitly letting them know the behavior isn’t appropriate.
Do they instantly become feminists overnight? No. But do they respond to consistent correction done with care by someone who they’re cool with, someone who’s still there to grow with them the next day? Yeah, they do.
In God’s ‘The Bible’, the main character Jesus is a very important person.
this is not a parody account what the actual fuck
# this rick roll has become so meta… we are all used to being rick rolled but then tumblr started reverse rick rolling us, making it to where we expect to be rick rolled but the song doesnt play and we find ourselves strangely disappointed, a reverse rick roll, but then this audio post comes on my dash and i think ‘this is another reverse rick roll’, so i click on it expecting anything but never gonna give you up to play, expecting disappointment, and then it plays., i’ve been rick rolled because i was expecting a reverse rick roll, making this a reverse rick roll rick roll, im losing my fucking mind, how much further can this go (via urie)
