“If You Know Someone Who Doesn’t Believe Sexism Exists, Show Them This”
Link here: [x]guys please reblog this so it spreads.
I’ve been sexually harassed by men ever since I was 12. My worst memories aside from a lot of verbal remarks are:
- sitting on the bus with my school bag over my knees when i was 13 and having a middle aged man slowly slide his hand on my thigh. I didnt notice until it was right on my leg and lifted my bag and he took it off immediately and pretended nothing happened and I was too afraid to do or say anything because the bus was full of people and I didnt want to make a scene
- I was running up a hill to catch up with my friend when I was about 14 and this guy took his penis out right in front of me and started violently masturbating while muttering vulgar things at me. I got so scared I started crying and ran for my life. My friend was literally meters away from me at the time but then ended up laughing about it like it wasn’t a big deal. I still judge her a lot for not taking it more seriously.
- I’ve had my ass grabbed and spanked, my thighs touched and I’ve had guys pressing up against my boobs or deliberately brushing against them, all in broad daylight in public places.
- Just yesterday while I was walking home I had a guy shout ‘I like your boobs’ to me across the street and although I shouted ‘go fuck yourself’ I still felt degraded and like my body was being sexualised for no reason.
It sickens me that men can’t control and discipline their sexual thoughts and find it acceptable to degrade women openly in our todays society. And I find it even more sickening that a lot of women accept this as ‘the norm’. Stop saying this is ok. Stop giving excuses that girls ‘ask for it’. STOP blaming the victims of this disgusting sexual harassment for what is clearly a gender particular issue. If you see anyone being sexually harassed CONFRONT THEM about it if it’s safe for you to do so. Don’t just walk away. LADIES SPEAK THE FUCK UP.

That’s the joint! That’s the jam! Turn that s*it up! Play it again!
My father is dead. Never had one conversation with the man. Well, half of one, once, when I was 15. My mom called him, talked to him for a few, then handed the phone to me. I said hello, the most nervous thing I had ever done in my life, but I over came it and did it.
He hung up the phone and the one thing that I know for sure about the man, I didn’t take any bravery I have in my system from him.
But he’s dead, now, and if I were to go out and find out anything about the man, I would be doing it by myself, on my own. I would be facing a monumental task, getting people to divulge information to a bastard child. I would stand a better chance walking up Mt. Everest after a shower, with just a robe and slippers on.
So, there’s that.
I envy you who had your Father in your life,
I pity you who are Fathers and don’t know if your child has clothes on their backs, a decent roof over their head, good food in their belly and if they’re happy…well, a child that doesn’t have their father in their lives, once they become aware that, for whatever reasons, their Father chose not to be in their lives, there will be some kind of feeling in their spirit about that.
So to those men who go through whatever they’re going through and still find a way to be in their child(ren) live(s) much love to you, men.
Much love.

“Rio 2096, A Story of Love and Fury” is an animated film revolving around the love between an immortal hero and Janaína, the woman he has been in love with for 600 years. Luiz Bolognesi has set the story in four phases of Brazil’s history: colonization, slavery, military regime and the future, in 2096, in the midst of wars for water. Targeting both youngsters and adults alike with a graphic novel slant to it, the film stars the voice talents of Selton Mello and Camila Pitanga as the two main characters. The feature film also counts on the voice of Rodrigo Santoro as an Indian Chief and warrior.
