fun fact i learned yesterday: a group of pugs is called a “grumble”
Yo if man ever did this I’d castrate him.
Luckily I have nexplanon.
What…? Dudes do this? Wow.
This is another one of those things I’d literally never heard of any guy doing until I saw it on Tumblr. But there’s an ad for it, so someone must be out there being a fuckaround.
I’ve heard of men doing this when I volunteered at a shelter for abuse victims. It’s another form of control. They’ll destroy her birth control and impregnate her so she’s stuck with him because of the baby.
Yeah, it happens and if a man ever tried this shit with me I would splatter him all over the fucking basement with a chainsaw.
Sometimes your partner will flush your pills, force you to not take them, pop the condom, and if you are pregnant force you not to have an abortion It happens..A lot.
Honestly I think I’m too strong for that shit. But then again I don’t attract men like that in the first place, I’m extraordinarily hard to control.
And I if I even found out that the person I’m with decided to do that I’m fuck him up.
Yeah but these things can go both ways. I know females who will go through lengths to keep a guy. I’ve heard of stories of girls breaking condoms, stop taking their own birth control, and persuading the other partner to do it raw. I believe both parties can manipulate and use force with this kind of act.
It’s not about strength cause if it was then only weak women would get abused. Which is a disgusting idea anyways but it isnt true. In my town they have these posters in all the women’s health centers. So this isn’t just tumblr. This is real.
Why do you think these legislators are doing this with birth control? They are abusers and want large scale control over bodies that aren’t even connected to them. Men do this to their partners regularly and I know people who are victims of this type of abuse. Forced pregnancy and non body agency are tools of abusers.
I did a whole intervention project about this when I was working at a DV shelter last summer. It’s commonly called reprodutive coercion. It’s definitely real and it happens a lot. Elizabeth Miller has done some good research about it, and Futures Without Violence has some really good resources if you explore their site
^^^ Thank you for the resources!!
That the Obama administration is now repeatedly declaring that the ‘war on terror’ will last at least another decade (or two) is vastly more significant than all three of this week’s big media controversies (Benghazi, IRS, and AP/DOJ) combined. The military historian Andrew Bacevich has spent years warning that US policy planners have adopted an explicit doctrine of ‘endless war’. Obama officials, despite repeatedly boasting that they have delivered permanently crippling blows to al-Qaida, are now, as clearly as the English language permits, openly declaring this to be so. It is hard to resist the conclusion that this war has no purpose other than its own eternal perpetuation. This war is not a means to any end but rather is the end in itself. Not only is it the end itself, but it is also its own fuel: it is precisely this endless war - justified in the name of stopping the threat of terrorism - that is the single greatest cause of that threat.

Gonna quickly throw in an epic quote I found on this article.
KJKJ: Gene Roddenberry, with balls of brass, got up on national tv and said, “hey people, if a geneticist took all the best DNA from planet Earth and put it together to make the best human the world has ever seen - he wouldn’t be a white guy.”
This is why I find the casting of a white actor in this role to be so repugnant. They are not whitewashing an Asian role, they are saying that the best genetic material that the entirety of this world and it’s diversity has to offer….still comes from a white guy.oh my god you can’t just ask genetic supermen why they’re white
It sounds awesome and all, but I cannot find that quote in that article.
It’s in the comments (which I think is why they used “on this article” instead of “in”) — should be the first one
“It’s so racist that United States can’t compete in Eurovision”
It’s not that we feel like we’re entitled to everything. Just everything that we want, or that someone else wants.

That last one about the gun shots always bugs me when I’m watching movies!
Normally, pointing this out invites comments like “Ricardo Montalbán wasn’t Indian either!” That’s true. He was Hispanic. But while there is certainly plenty to say about Hollywood’s habit of casting people of color to play characters from completely different backgrounds as if all brown people look the same (Montalbán played more than one Asian character during his career), that is a separate issue entirely from Hollywood’s ugly history of casting white people to play characters of color.
I suppose while it’s obvious I’m angry about the whitewashing of Khan through gifsets/reblogging of posts by others who feel the pain, I haven’t explained exactly why I’m so upset about it.
So.
