“Slut” is how we vilify a woman for exercising her right to say “yes”. “Friendzone” is how we vilify a woman for exercising her right to say “no”.

Thanks for all the good lucks, tumblr pals.:3 Vanessa forgot to mention the job was temporary work, like only 6 days, temporary, but I got it. Which is cool, I guess.

Culture shock at barber shops cause I ain’t hood enough, we all look the same to the cops, ain’t that good enough? // The black experience is blackened serious, cause being black, my experience, is no one hearin’ us.

"I'm allowed to be bored by white DIY punks"
I’ve seen you all around // and I’ve read your consent zines / and I’ve listened to your songs about your DIY collective aka clique I’m not invited to / and I’ve bought your prints and patches only because I know you’re hungry / and I really actually abhor the banality of valorizing everything you do and eat because #personalispolitical and #selfcare and #stayposi / because I’m bored And I’m...

Anonymous asked: I am also a POC and grew up in a predominantly POC town. Basically, I was taught that black people (and other POC of course) would reach a better standing in the world if we subscribed to whiteness. In addition, I was raised in a strict household that shamed basically any kind of behavior considered stereotypical. I always felt inadequate because of this. I went to university...

candiduran asked: I understand what you mean, but I must say that I feel this way when it comes to latinos and blacks as well. I am an afro-hispanic girl who feels like she must also get acceptance from the hispanic & black community. Identity is tough and sometimes I just feel like there will always be some sort of insecurity no matter what you do, and it's really sad. Thought I'd share that with...

laurenlespier asked: I read your little piece on race and I think everything you said is totally off... Why would it be any more of a compliment for a white man to like you rather than a black man? Affection is affection and it comes in all shapes and sizes. Race has nothing to do with it, love, as well as friendship are blind.

I am very much affected by race.
It affects every area of my life. When I meet people. When I walk down the street.  When I’m sitting among classmates. etc, etc.[[MORE]] I hate that is, I really do. I have to constantly remind myself that not everyone is basing my personality or overall “vibe”, if you will, on the fact that I am a person of color. Yet, I am constantly checking my behavior and appearance. I...

Don’t You Dare Ask Me Why I Look Mad →
Basically, this is just some sexist bullshit. We don’t expect men to run around grinning like a bunch of fools. When they look mad, we call it “brooding” or “masculine”. Why the hell should women be expected to look happy and open to your sleazy advances all the time? What drives me even crazier is when a guy says something like, “why don’t you put a smile on that beautiful face?” Because I...

otylie replied to your post: Waterproof vegan eyeliner eyes lips face make a ‘felt tip’ pen eyeliner and I think it’s waterproof I’ve tried it. And felt tips are awful in your waterline. And E.L.F. waterproof products suck at being waterproof… :c

Waterproof vegan eyeliner
Does anyone know a good waterproof vegan eyeliner? (Like a pencil eyeliner, not liquid or loose powder.) It seems like the only thing I can’t find.
