Did you know that there is an exercise that you can do anywhere, anytime, in front of anyone that can intensify and improve your orgasms? It’s true! You can strengthen your pubococcygeus (mercifully abbreviated to “PC”) muscles just like you strengthen any other muscle, but…

-You cannot be sexist toward men. Sexism is based on a system of oppression. You CAN be discriminatory, rude, inconsiderate, and/or prejudiced against men but you CANNOT be sexist toward them.
-You cannot be racist towards white people. Racism is based on a system of oppression. You CAN be discriminatory, rude, inconsiderate, and/or prejudiced against white people but you CANNOT be racist toward them.
This is not difficult.
Personally, I don’t give a flying fuck off a high dive if Zimmerman had a hatchet embedded into his skull, it still doesn’t take way from the fact that he cause the death of a kid by being a fucking bully who’s actions wrote a check that his ass couldn’t cash, so he robbed somebody of their life.
By the time he goes to trial, his defense team will have America believing that Trayvon Martin was the shooter from the Grassy Knoll and he helped hide Natalie Holloway’s body. Why bother, just say that the bitch was in his rights as an asshole to shoot a Negro and lets fucking move on to the goddamn rioting, already.
For HuskyBro’s commentary.
This fucking liar’s injuries never seem to heal, eh?
I wouldn’t put it past this sociopath if he knocked the back of his own head against the concrete or against a wall. Plus once my cousin was in a fight with another 5 year old when he was in kindergarten and had the same sort of injuries. And I strongly believe Trayvon had every right to defend himself and bash that fucker back.
But the trickling of these stories just seem like Zimmerman is full of shit. And yes to thehusbybro.
The bolded, yessss.
Wait, so when someone is FOLLOWING YOU DOWN THE FUCKING STREET and they HAVE A GUN, you’re not allowed to fight back? And if you fight back it’s totally acceptable for them to shoot and kill you?
Only when you’re black, I guess.
Because people still think it’s okay when black people die. We deserve it, clearly.
Fuck alllll y’all who say racism wasn’t a factor.
dear internet, let me tell you some things about my public-school-in-georgia sex education.
pictured above is my abstinence til marriage card, given to me in my eighth grade health class. as you can see, i did not sign it, so it is non-binding. they were “optional” but the teacher placed the basket at the front of the class and stared us down. my 13-year-old self had a very brief dilemma between 1. making a stand and not getting one or 2. getting one because it’s fucking hilarious. i am very glad i chose the latter, because as i predicted, this is now something hilarious to show everyone.
that year in health we also learned “how to spot the identifying features of a crack baby” which is literally nothing but lies. we had a system of anonymous questions, and once someone asked “how do i know if i’m a lesbian?” our teacher looked disgusted and she replied “how would i know? i’m not a lesbian!”
EDIT i forgot to mention when she gave these to us she suggested we “cut up our cards together with our husbands on our wedding day” and i remember thinking, fuck if i marry someone from my middle school
the next time i had sex ed in high school it was taught by a dude gym coach who spent the whole time talking about his daughters. the book we were learning from listed “low self-esteem” “stunted social growth” and “depression,” among others, as consequences of premarital sex. at one point, it asked us to fill in the disadvantages of having an abortion. our teacher went, “well, i’m personally against abortion, so we’re just going to skip this section,” which confused me, because it was explicitly asking for an argument against abortion.
the last time i had sex ed it was pretty good and there were free condoms and we got little bottles of lube every time we answered questions, but i don’t think that counts cause it was in an intro to women’s studies class.
Wow.
