Kaitlyn Hunter, a senior at a Florida high school, has been expelled and is facing criminal charges as a result of a consensual, same-sex relationship with another student. Her parents have started…

Assistant State Attorney Brian Workman: Stop the prosecution of an 19 year old girl in a same-sex relationship - http://www.change.org/petitions/assistant-state-attorney-brian-workman-stop-the-prosecution-of-an-18-year-old-girl-in-a-same-sex-relationship?utm_campaign=share_button_action_box&utm_medium=facebook&utm_source=share_petition

This bothers the fuck out of me. Please sign the petition!

Hey, please sign this

apparently the girl started dating her when she was 17 and the parents waited until she was 18 to press charges, fucking assholes

The parents of the other girl should be sued for child abuse. The mental abuse they are putting on their daughter is ridiculous!! It’s unacceptable. Horrible people.

fuckyeahfeminists: rhrealitycheck: Did you know that pregnant women have been fired for using the bathroom to vomit, needing to carry a water bottle on the job, or asking to sit on a stool instead of standing in place all day? While employers have to make allowances like these for other types of temporary disabilities, a number of bad court decisions have encouraged them to feel they can get away with firing or mistreating pregnant workers with impunity. It’s disgraceful and unacceptable that at a time when unnecessary budget cuts are decimating food, medical, and educational supports for low-income families, pregnant women continue to be pushed out of their jobs just as they take on all the expenses of having a new baby. Read more about the Pregnant Workers Fairness Actand take action by contacting your congressperson. This is unacceptable. Pregnant workers need more protection. With a child coming up they need employment more than ever. Please contact your rep. The other alternative is taking the law into your own hands….by killing any employers who fire pregnant women due to the needs during pregnancy and disposing of their bodies in a secretive manner. I suggest either pigs or hydrofluoric acid. However, I would much rather laws just be put in place to protect the job security of pregnant people. The other is so time consuming.

if you go to hell for being bad why wouldn’t satan reward you for it why does he make you suffer wtf id be like hell yeah motherfucker you my nigga lets party

i started to laugh and then i realized that this is actually a really valid question

Alternatively, if Satan punishes sinners, why isn’t he considered good?

If the Pope dies, is he being promoted or fired?

We’re becoming self aware

The Bible says that God decides who goes to Hell, not the devil. The devil’s considered evil because he coaxes people into using that ‘free will’ that God gave everyone for negative things. He wants everyone to suffer for eternity, so if that means convincing you to do some ‘fun’ things for a short time (human lifefspan) that goes against what God wants of you, he can then hurt you for eternity after you die.

niknumber3:

people say they are worried about their daughter getting pregnant

but never say they are worried about their son getting someone pregnant

says a lot

Not true at all. My parents used to say that about me.

And another thing, I’m tired of everyone making the guys who get girls pregnant out to be the bad guys 99% of the time. Unless it was rape, the last time I checked, women could think for themselves just as much as a guy can. Both parties are responsible. Quit assuming that guys are just out to fuck over women all the time. I’ve met more openly vindictive women than I have openly vindictive guys. Then again, I don’t hang out with assholes.

In the 101 top-grossing family films…from 1990 to 2004, of the over 4,000 characters in these films, 75% overall were male, 83% of characters in crowds were male, 83% of narrators were male, and 72% of speaking were male. When the American Psychological Association commented on this research, they said, ‘This gross under-representation of women or girls in films with family-friendly content reflects a missed opportunity to present a broad spectrum of girls and women in roles that are non-sexualised.’

Whoa…no. Disney has made millions on its princesses! How many Disney princes are there in which you even know their names? Maybe overall…but women are far more prominent as the LEADING characters in family movies.

A kid was walking around school wearing this today and didn’t receive a single comment from administration.

Meanwhile, I was pulled over twice by them to mention how “incredibly short” my bottoms were.

Last time I checked, my shorts don’t reference blowjobs.

Quit sexualizing things that aren’t meant to be suggestive.

This school is shitty and the administrators should be fired and beaten.

atheistangel: Because equality starts at home.   It was the most sincere display of appreciation that my five-year-old son has ever shown. He looked me straight in the eyes and said a very mature and worldly “thank you.” The words were full of honesty, relief, happiness and a little bit of anguish. “You’re welcome, baby,” I said looking at him with a smile and masking the pain I was feeling. “You look so pretty.” My gender creative son was thanking me for buying him a dress to wear to Christmas Eve dinner. He had eyed the ensemble weeks ago and asked to wear it for Christmas so he could take “fancy pictures by the fireplace and the tree. I told him no. Not because the outfit was made for girls and he is a boy, but because had I bought it then he would have wanted to wear it immediately and often and when we finally sat down to Christmas Eve dinner it would have been thrashed. He talked about his “Christmas outfit” nonstop and asked everyday if it was time to go buy it. Today was the day. We got home and both ran up the stairs to my bedroom with its mirrored closets. I sat on the floor removing price tags while he tore off his “school clothes,” which he wears as a disguise when out in society so that people will think he is all boy. He wears “school clothes” so that he won’t get teased, have to sit by himself at the lunch tables and so he will get invites to birthday parties. More than anything he wants to be thought of as “normal.” But, he’s not. He closed his eyes as I put on the black bubble skirt covered in sequins, the red long sleeved t-shirt that says “JOY” on it in glitter and the black sequined vest. I spun him to the mirror. He opened his eyes, took himself in and then thanked me. My first reaction was to smile. He reminded me of when I was a little girl and wanted a show stopping dress for the holidays. My dresses were made of scratchy fabric that made noise when I moved. I wore white socks with lace trim and stiff, shiny Mary Janes. I learned at an early age that beauty is pain. My son looked sassy and beautiful. He looked natural, happy and truly comfortable for the first time that day. Then I felt pain. If the rest of the world could be more empathetic, accepting, welcoming and kind, my son could be this happy and comfortable all of the time — because then my son could be a boy who dresses like a girl and not have to think twice about it. The world isn’t like that. Other people can’t see the beauty in my son in a dress. I haven’t always seen the beauty either. Two and a half years ago this scene from my life wouldn’t have happened. I wouldn’t have bought girl clothes for my son. Never. Ever. Back then, I felt uneasy when he played with Barbies. When he tried to dress feminine, I’d hand him his brother’s masculine hand-me-downs and tell him to put them on. I didn’t give him choices because I knew that his choices would be pink with sparkle and rhinestones. His choices would smell like the raspberry vanilla body spray he snuck from bathroom and hid under his bed. Then I realized that my actions were telling him “you can’t be you because I want you to be what society wants you to be.” My husband and I changed the way we were parenting. There was something unique about our son that we could choose to support or destroy. We had to follow his lead. He led us to the pink aisles at Target; and, that’s not a dangerous, harmful, unhealthy place for a boy to be. My son’s Christmas dress is hanging in his closet. He checks on it before and after school and a few other times each day. On Christmas Eve, a dozen members of our family will gather around the table in honor of religious beliefs and to celebrate the passing of one year and the start of another. It will be the first holiday that my son will join us at the table dressed as a girl. We won’t care. We will tell him that he is beautiful, inside and out. And, we’ll mean it. xoxo, C.J.’s Mom Raising my rainbow ♥ Can’t help what’s in your heart. I hope I’m that great of a parent.
