Birth Control Advocacy of the Day: In a direct attack on the GOP’s War on Women, a new project called “Sluts Across America” has been launched to highlight the absurdity of judging those who use birth control “for totally valid, responsible, and mature reasons”; show that supporters of reproductive rights exist everywhere; and re-appropriate and take ownership of the derogatory term “slut.”
The site involves a simple interface that asks users to input their location and a reason for supporting access to birth control. It then displays the users’ statements and locations anonymously, under the heading “I’m a slut because…”
Here goes: “I’m a slut because caring for kids whilst writing The Daily What would be disastrous.”

AAHHH I’m so going to do this! Especially so I can get those numbers higher for us southerners.

Shocker.

Because if there is one thing that is severely lacking when it comes to abortion and reproductive rights, it’s a man’s opinion.

Not like we just had an entire panel of (religious) men testify to congress about birth control use and how they oppose it…and no women…at all.

Love,

JC Penney’s new ad for Father’s Day

The text reads:

“First Pals: What makes Dad so cool? He’s the swim coach, tent maker, best friend, bike fixer and hug giver—all rolled into one. Or two.” The text at the bottom reads: “Real-life dads, Todd Koch and Cooper Smith with their children Claire and Mason.”

HELL TO THE MUTHAFUCKIN YES.

So fucking cute.

(TW: Rape) If you say that a woman wearing revealing clothes deserves to be sexually assaulted, you are saying that a woman’s body is inherently deserving of rape. That women are inherently deserving of rape. That women have to make sure their body is hidden in order not to deserve to be raped. That is misogyny in its purest form.
