““For the last three decades many Americans have puzzled over a system that gives an R to a movie in which a women is carved up by a chainsaw and an NC-17 to one that shows a woman sexually pleasured. From such ratings one might conclude that sexual violence against women is OK for American teenagers to see, but that they must be 18 to see consensual sex. What message does this send to the kids the MPAA presumably means to protect?””

- Carrie Rickey

(via fireworkselectricbright)

“You have to question a cinematic culture which preaches artistic expression, and yet would support a decision that is clearly a product of a patriarchy-dominant society, which tries to control how women are depicted on screen. The MPAA is okay supporting scenes that portray women in scenarios of sexual torture and violence for entertainment purposes, but they are trying to force us to look away from a scene that shows a woman in a sexual scenario which is both complicit and complex. It’s misogynistic in nature to try and control a woman’s sexual presentation of self. I consider this an issue that is bigger than this film.”

-Ryan Gosling on the controversy around the rating of his film ‘Blue Valentine’

fat-feminist:

yes.

pero en serio, what does this do? be honest to yourselves.

Take self defense classes… gain abilities to defend yourself and stop thinking you’re the wolverine… walking with keys in your fingers like that does nothing but feed your fears.

there’s also a lot of easy defense techniques that can be found through youtube in case people can’t find time or money to get classes. these techniques require only the body at least 99% percent of the time and really gives ppl a sense of confidence.

you’re more likely going to seriously injure yourself with the keys like that than by using some part of your body to strike.

“So my amazing daughter, Emma, turned 5 last month, and I had been searching everywhere for new-creative inspiration for her 5yr pictures. I noticed quite a pattern of so many young girls dressing up as beautiful Disney Princesses, no matter where I looked 95% of the “ideas” were the “How to’s” of how to dress your little girl like a Disney Princess…We chose 5 women (five amazing and strong women), as it was her 5th birthday but there are thousands of unbelievable women (and girls) who have beat the odds and fought (and still fight) for their equal rights all over the world”

It’s ridiculous that it needs to be said, but: being a mother and being pro-choice are not mutually exclusive.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the pro-choice moms out there! :)
