Leftist. Feminist. Sex-positive. Humanist. Vegetarian. Socialist.
It is a violation of human rights when babies are denied food, or drowned, or suffocated, or their spines broken, simply because they are born girls.
It is a violation of human rights when women and girls are sold into the slavery of prostitution.
It is a violation of human rights when women are doused with gasoline, set on fire and burned to death because their marriage dowries are deemed too small.
It is a violation of human rights when individual women are raped in their own communities and when thousands of women are subjected to rape as a tactic or prize of war.
It is a violation of human rights when a leading cause of death worldwide among women ages 14 to 44 is the violence they are subjected to in their own homes.
It is a violation of human rights when young girls are brutalized by the painful and degrading practice of genital mutilation.
It is a violation of human rights when women are denied the right to plan their own families, and that includes being forced to have abortions or being sterilized against their will.
If there is one message that echoes forth from this conference, it is that human rights are women’s rights - and women’s rights are human rights. Let us not forget that among those rights are the right to speak freely - and the right to be heard.

He said that he was once invited to an event at the White House. He was seated next to President George W. Bush.
Bush turned to him and said, “I gotta tell ya… I’m not a fan.”

the only thing PETA want to save is money not animals. learn the truth
The only good thing about PETA is the large amount of information on the site regarding veganism. It’s sad that they’re so hypocritical :(
Hypocrisy is the worst
Money makes the world go round… Greed and power. It’s all about who has the most money.
Always reblog this. A lot of the animals they kill (and they kill over 95% of the animals they take in at their Virginia Headquarters) are killed within 24 hours. Not nearly enough time to deem whether an animal is adoptable or not. They even bought a giant fridge to store the corpses!
PETA is a corporation. Not a charity. Less than 1% of their 32 Million+ annual budget actually goes to directly helping animals. Most of it is spent making sexist/racist/ domestic abuse supporting commercials that won’t even air on television, giving bail outs to convicted arsonists and criminals, hiring/supporting any celebrity that claims to be vegetarian for five minutes, creating campaigns to target children (“Your mom kills animals”), fruitless lawsuits like suing Sea World for violating the constitution, and most recently, making porn. I’m not against porn, but I fail to see how it fucking helps animals.
PETA does not give a shit about animals.
Plus, these assholes have the gall to insult Steve Irwin.
I live about half a mile from their headquarters currently and it’s funny, for all the protests they organize against groups that harm animals, I’ve never seen anyone protesting them.

This owns. (Taken with instagram)
My old boss tried to use the restroom argument with me once. For people who try to use this as another example of why trans* people create all of the problems of the world, it can really be THIS simple.
Simple as that.
[Image description: Photograph of a sign hanging on a wall outside, presumably, public restrooms. The sign is black with white writing, and reads:
“RESTROOMS

Equipped with Sanitary Bins [arrow pointing to the right]”. End description.]

Father With Autistic Son Sends His Kid to School With a Wire, Exposes Bullying and Abuse by Teachers.
MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNING FOR BULLYING BY TEACHERS, ABLEISM
Dear Akian’s teachers:
Fuck. You.
Fuck you for tormenting a child this way. Fuck you for treating him and every other student in that class like trash. Fuck you for potentially scarring them all for life; for making them scared in a place they should feel safe in. Fuck you for contributing to the cycle of special needs helplessness, where kids are given up on and left to languish instead of being given the skills and knowledge they need. Fuck you and all your ableism, your lies, and your perpetration of a culture where people like us are devalued, harassed, and abused.
Fuck you.
Just fuck you.
This video makes me want to scream. But as a child care provider, it also galvanizes me. Because I know that I will NEVER be what those teachers are. And it makes me even more determined to always be a positive spot in the day of the kids I take care of. To always be someone worthy of their trust and their parents trust.
father of the fucking year.
I just watched this whole thing. I really really urge you to do the same.
Parenting - you’re doing it right.
I have seen SO MANY special needs students bullied by teachers. You do not understand how close I have been to punching teachers before. This is an epidemic, this needs to be talked about.
