adjusting

life update: I got my haircut yesterday, was left feeling like I look like Matilda (in a bad way). But now that I can style it myself, I like it more. School is unsurprisingly stressful. I'm trying to piece together a PhD proposal about institutional oppression and the morality between social groups and falling behind on my other commitments. I just got offered a really great job though, being a contributing vlogger for EverydayFeminism.com!! I'm in the process of starting that, so more videos soon! Also it's warm out finally. I ate some matcha green tea icecream today.
I'm wearing a shirt: Monki (duh), blazer also from Monki, pants: ASOS, shoes: Nike
backpack is from JumpFromPaper :)
I diluted Special Effects Deep Purple dye with conditioner to get this color. It's really bright irl.

on sex work

I'd like to first point out that these are just my opinions, and that they are coming from a place of solidarity and not of experience. I am not trying to speak for sex-workers - I am only trying to start a conversation! I think it's necessary to actively think about these things in order to make any real shift in consciousness. Sex Work is Real Work We are constantly bombarded with the message that sex workers are troubled. Watching day-time television I have witnessed Dr. Phil repeatedly demonize sex work and those who participate in it. It’s dirty, and dangerous; they must have suffered as a child or lacked a fatherly figure. The two-dimensional stereotype attached to sex-work is ignorant and perpetuates a culture of violence against innocent people who are just doing their job (which there is and likely always will be a market for, I might add). There may be risks that come with a line of work which often requires secrecy and vulnerability (to some extent), but ...

feminist killjoy: a rant

A rant regarding a video I recently uploaded onto my youtube: “feminists don’t  really  want equality” & 6 other myths about feminism I keep getting personal messages sent to me on youtube from MRA's calling me scum and trying to tear me down but all it does is prove that their opinions are not worth my worry. i am always open to critical debate and i can defend my views but only when it is appropriate (ie. has SOME basis for its truth other than a feminist-hating forum on reddit).

MRAs tell me what i'm REALLY for is "humanism." i'm confused, mistaken. feminism isn't what i think it is. But no, i am for the feminism that i identify with.  I call myself a feminist and not a "humanist" because humanist erases the specific aim of f...
