- Why feminists can’t be sex-positive: “A lot of criticism of sex-positive feminism is really criticism of sexy women. It’s hard to find a piece that isn’t dripping with disgusted descriptions of women who wear high heels and shave their legs and then they giggle and they act all flirty and give blowjobs, oh my God. And it’s hard for me to see the difference between this and plain old slut-shaming. It always seems undercut with the implication that sexy women aren’t just unfeminist, they’re icky.” Sex-Pozzie (The Pervocracy)

They are your judge, jury, executioner and mayor: they own the law. As I saw in my case, they are able to crush you for reporting an assault.” Military sexual assault and rape ‘epidemic’ (Al Jazeera English)

- Rachel Kramer Bussel on not using birth control, “The first time, I felt like I was watching myself from afar, and figured this slightly older man must know something I didn’t, must have some special way of protecting us. When we did it again the next morning, forgoing a condom seemed easier, somehow; I’d already done it once.” My Tiny Hypocrisy: I Don’t Always Use Birth Control (Open Salon)
