It's a lovely world we live in
| Woman: | I'm smart |
| Patriarchy: | Well you're probably ugly then |
| Woman: | I'm creative |
| Patriarchy: | You mean unattractive right? |
| Woman: | I have all these incredible accomplishments |
| Patriarchy: | Yeah but look how ugly you looked doing them |
| Woman: | I have value |
| Patriarchy: | Not if you're ugly lol |
| Woman: | I'm conventionally-attractive & posted selfies on my blog |
| Patriarchy: | I'm so sick of these empty-headed chicks only caring about their looks. Just because you are attractive and get attention from men doesn't mean you are special or deserve respect. Why don't you read a book or do something productive with your life you dumb slut |
Amazing, as always. Also: yay for short hair!

Jessica Valenti: New Campaign Ad Says Romney Supports Abortion & Birth Control Rights →
SERIOUSLY?
Listen, I actually think Mitt Romney personally doesn’t give a shit about issues of reproductive health, but whatever he thinks is irrelevant - it’s his policies that are important.
-Romney wants to overturn Roe v. Wade by appointing anti-choice justices.
-Romney…
Gosh, this ad is terrible. And, evidently, I totally agree with Jessica. Romney’s flip-flopping is indicative of his lack of principle, not of what he’s going to do about women’s reproductive rights. This he’s been clear about.
