I need masculism because some people were having a discussion that wasn’t about me or my experiences and I’m pretty sure that’s oppression.

This, though.
I love when we reframe issues to illustrate them as they are- the perpetrator’s problem.

How to use your white privilege
If the “passing privilege” person is looking at this blog, this is one thing you can do, if you’re up to it.
Reblogging for excellence.
Too beautiful.
This really touched my heart.
This is wonderful.
On the topic of white privilege videos, there is one that is bashed with getting horrible comments. [see it here] Things like:
“Non-Whites are very privileged to live in this country & should understand how lucky they are to be able to enjoy the fruits of a White (Caucasoid) created civilization. They (non-Whites)are very privileged to have affirmative action/preferential treatment from the local state & federal governments & from corporations in so many areas from loans to jobs. Yes we should stop all that crap & stop putting up with their complaining & their repulsive behavior. Whites should be the “privileged” ones.”
“White people commit less crimes and are kinder and more civilized than all the non-Whites in our countries, this is a demonstrable, statistical fact.”
Please like the video and/or leave a positive comment on it.

This is a video about white privilege. And it is being destroyed in the comment section. [x] It’s not even a flame war; it’s just ignorant whites. People have the audacity to say things like:
Non-Whites are very privileged to live in this country & should understand how lucky they are to be able to enjoy the fruits of a White (Caucasoid) created civilization. They (non-Whites)are very privileged to have affirmative action/preferential treatment from the local state & federal governments & from corporations in so many areas from loans to jobs. Yes we should stop all that crap & stop putting up with their complaining & their repulsive behavior. Whites should be the “privileged” ones.
I don’t know how to describe this video either, it’s such whiny bullshit. […] White people commit less crimes and are kinder and more civilized than all the non-Whites in our countries, this is a demonstrable, statistical fact. The fact that non-Whites are arrested more often than Whites is not evidence that the system is full of racist White privilege, it’s evidence that NON-WHITES COMMIT MORE CRIMES.
holy fuck i love being white :o)
being the majority race in a democratic nation gives you certain privileges. Duh. The knee jerk reaction people have to this rather obvious truth is nuts. If I’m a lion in the jungle, I damn sure have priv’s cause I rule it. Things go my way, mostly.
And this? How is she a “stupid white liberal” when everything she said was true and relevant? <— this was flagged as spam
So, tumblr, let’s BLOW UP this video with likes, positive reviews, personal accounts of discrimination/privilege… anything you have. Thanks in advance.
PLEASE REBLOG.

sometimes I feel like I shouldn’t be on tumblr since I have a boyfriend and on here I’m surrounded by “forever alone” horny teenagers. Relationship guilt. It’s real.

I’m so tired, blehhhalkfdjalskjl. All I did was go to like 20 stores in the mall to ask if they’re hiring. I shouldn’t be this tired, right?

#These three quotes are impressively indicative of the Doctor’s personality in each incarnation #Nine was cold and broken from the war always seeing the worst and blaming the ‘stupid apes’ #until Rose came along and started to fix him - started to make him better and showed him how fantastic everything actually was #And most importantly that he’s not this horrible person who committed genocide and killed his whole planet and people #He did what he had to do and despite it all you know what? he was fantastic. #Ten on the other hand - so incredibly human #He felt everything on such a deeper emotional level than any of his previous incarnations #‘the one adventure i can never have’ with the one person he was essentially made for (and because of) #He’s probably the only version who has ever or will ever want the potential of that adventure #And finally Eleven #Eleven who was born out of Ten’s despair and his ‘I dont want to go’ #Whose levels of self-hatred are so high that he locked himself and Amy and Rory in a dream state just to essentially kill himself #Who opened Door 11 in the hotel and said ‘who else?’ #He doesn’t let anyone close anymore - even Amy - and hides behind his childish exterior and ‘bowties are cool’ distractions #He knows the only one he will have left is the TARDIS #Amy and Rory are married and he’s already seen the death of River Song #Eleven is definitely a madman with the only companion he has left - his blue box #ugh my fucking heart #WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

There’s currently a shorts prohibition for staff working on the Roslag Railway in Sweden. Some men took to wearing skirts in the heat. (x)
I love the fact that the company they work for is totally on board with them doing this.
“According to our line of thinking, you should look stylish and neat when you represent Arriva, and these are the uniforms available. If the men want to wear skirts that’s okay. Telling them anything else would be discrimination.”
fuck yeah, sweden
