Having a baby is so weird, it’s like suddenly there’s this person that used to not exist?  And now they’re going to be a whole person with thoughts and feelings and they’ll make art and read poetry and drink fruit punch and they used to not Be at all

like jesus fuck how trippy

Manhood, football and suicide by Kevin Powell →

afrolez:

“…Yes, they had been arguing, [Jovan] Belcher and his girlfriend, but in my work as an activist, including around gender violence prevention, I’ve seen the tragic pattern across our nation of men who, in the heat of rage, have killed their girlfriends, wives or lovers, as if they had no other vocabulary or emotion to deal with the disagreement or the break-up.

We cannot forget Kasandra Perkins in this story. Because when men behave in this manner, it also says, bluntly, that the life of a woman is of no value whatsoever. Just the fact that much of the media has focused on Belcher and barely mentions Perkins by name speaks to this truth….” ~ Kevin Powell

Rape jokes are not jokes. Woman-hating jokes are not jokes. These guys are telling you what they think. When you laugh along to get their approval, you give them yours.

Chelsea Coreen - “Fart”

“But how @%^# up are our standards of beauty, or gender constructs… that we make little girls hold in their farts until no one is around to smell them”

“When I used to visit my grandmother in the hospital she would make me apply her red lipstick for her - she said she couldn’t be seen without it.”

Chelsea Coreen, of SUNY Oneonta, performing during Semi-FInals at the 2013 College Unions Poetry Slam Invitational.

I also hate when I’ll tell men that I can’t trust men

and they’ll react in some way like “damn girl who hurt you”

as if my reactions, my hypervigilance, my mistrust came from just one man’s actions

and not the sum of all of the actions

how men act in groups

how men behave everyday

In the Sims, you don’t say, “I love you.” You say, “Habadu bashubi,” which roughly translates to, “I cannot move because there is furniture in the way.” I think that’s absolutely beautiful.
