I am convinced that everyone here hates sex. Why else would you wait until your mid twenties to get married and lose your virginity only to immediately get pregnant. 

“
Heteronormativity isn’t just about the presumption that everyone is heterosexual. The expectation that boys woo girls feeds into your mind the expectation that relationships are necessary for fulfilment, and you are less than if you are not having particular kinds of sex with a particular, and a particular kind of, person at particular intervals. It’s about what Lauren Berlant calls the love plot, in which love is produced as a generic text enabling society to interpret your life as following certain conventions. It’s not about what you want, it’s about what you’re supposed to want. You’re not encouraged to think about what you want in relationships, if anything, so much as you are encouraged to fit a script. Heteronormativity messes things up for everyone, straight people included.

my parents’ method of control is to give me the absolute bare minimum (be it money or freedom or whatever) and tell me to “just ask if you want extra” so that I’d constantly have to negotiate every time I want more. I swear it’s so manipulative it’s almost kind of genius. this way they get to act like they’re being incredibly generous and reasonable without actually having to go through with it OR have to put up with me fighting with them, because they know that if I spend 24 years alternatively arguing and kissing their ass just to get the most basic trivial things then I’ll be too demoralized and exhausted to ask for anything decent, PLUS they get to smugly pat themselves on the back those few times those negotiations are in my favor. cool, I can come home at 7 30 that one time, thanks. 

I know this blog is turning into the rants of a super emo angsty 13 year old girl right now but I never complained when I was 13 and I’m 24 now and I still get treated like this and I am seriously going crazy with anger and they know that if I get the smallest chance to leave then I will and it’s freaking them out. I just wish 18 year old me had realized that post graduation I would need the money a lot more than “job satisfaction” which I’m not gonna get either way.

ssiiiiiiighhhhhhhh if I eventually descend into madness at least it will be chronicled here.

Depicting the hopeless, emotional polarity of a young couple, this novel follows their doomed marriage spent in a remote, tropical hell. She—described only as “the girl”—is young, sophisticated and sensitive. He, “Mr. Dog-Head,” is an unreconstructed thug and heavy drinker who rapes his wife, otherwise passing his time bludgeoning rats with a tennis racket. Together with a visiting stranger, “Suede Boots”—who urges the woman to escape until he is banished by her husband—these characters live through the same situations twice. Their identities are equally real—or unreal—in each case. With slight variation in the background and the novel’s atmosphere, neither the outcome nor the characters themselves are quite the same the second time. The constant question of the jungle “brain-lever” bird remains unanswered: who are you?  I really liked this book

lovebeyondmeasure: Quick, messy graphic to explain a concept that seems obvious to me: We shouldn’t be helping women because they’re related to someone else. We shouldn’t be helping women because someone else cares about them. We should be helping women because they are people.  We should be helping women for their own sake. Why is that a hard concept for people to grasp?
