Sh*t that makes me mad

I am SO sick about the continual news of violence against women. Screaming! Today I heard something new about a hushed trial in the northeast surrounding a rape of a sleeping or drunk woman and some brag-video posting that has leaked since. I can’t bring myself to look up the details because it makes me so mad. As the mother of a boy, it’s of utmost importance to raise him to respect human beings equally. To be brave enough to think for himself. Because so much of the violence that we see these days grows like riot mentality, people catch the fever, turn into zombies and do terrible things.

 

Caitlin Moran writes that internet porn is the new sex-ed. It’s widely available and often free. It’s not the sex having that’s the issue, it’s the porn industry’s one view point about what hot sex is. Mainstream sex on an impressionable brain is a travesty. And this is kind of my beef with the world anyway, porn not excluded. It takes all you got to figure out what kind of person you are, or want to be in daylight life. The behind the scenes sex should be pitch perfect, blueberries and rainbows, butt plugs, whatever. But with the extreme residence of glossy straight porn, it may seem like that is the way things happen. So gross and boring.

Break out people. Listen to your heart, speak with your own voice, own your beautiful, imperfect life.
