"There’s a firmly held conviction in our society that women “talk a lot”, often about trivia and gossip. And yet research has shown that men, in many different situations, talk far more than women and expect women to listen."

How to get more older women on TV | Anna Ford | Comment is free | The Guardian

"why are we women, who are 51% of the population, still subject to appalling discrimination? Why are we so absent from the places where power lies and decisions are made? Why aren’t there more women over 50 gracing our screens? Just 18% of presenters at major broadcasters belong to this demographic was the finding of this week’s research. Why aren’t there more women in the cabinet, or being appointed as high court judges or joining the boards of companies? How is it that we’ve had an Equal Pay Act for 40 years and women are still not paid equally for doing the same work as men? How can it be that women are still deemed unemployable because they have babies? Whose babies do they have? Why is it that in these times of austerity, the majority of people who will pay the price of the cuts are women, and poorer women in the regions? Why, when large numbers of women experience violence and rape, are conviction numbers so paltry ?"

YOU: “Ok, lemme do that.” *writes something very self-aware and reflective of the fact that they have very little to actually complain about*

Tumblr: “Well, now you’re just exemplifying privilege! Not everything is about you. LOL Native Informant, much?”

YOU: “Okay.” *writes something that’s less about them, more about society/turtles/hamburger phones or some shit*

Tumblr: “Do you hate yourself? Why aren’t you talking about being a woman of color!!! A woman, period!! Just stop writing with your white-identifying, man-identifying, plastic bag-identifying, whipped cream-identifying, the color blue-identifying, INDENTIFYING-IDENTIFYING ass!!”

YOU: “What?”

Tumblr: “I better not catch you writing anything ever again!!”

YOU: “Whatever, man.”

Tumblr: “You intentionally MISGENDERED ME! CHECK YOUR ENTIRE PRIVILEGE AND NEVER WRITE ANYTHING AGAIN. I’M LETTING YOU OFF WITH A WARNING!” *goes back to blogging about the second season of cowboy bebop and my little pony*

Fight Patriarchy with Pixie Cuts!: Irene Adler (BBC Sherlock) →

feministpixie:

Irene Adler is a perfect example of a character with fantastic potential who was ruined by Moffat’s reckless sexism and queerbaiting. Powerful, queer and sexually empowered, Irene seems on the surface to be a feminist heroine in a show that doesn’t have a great history with the few female…

I’m not sure I entirely agree, but there are some excellent points in here— a great read for the socially and feminism concerned (hopefully everyone…)
