"Women have always had equal rights"

When anaesthetic was first invented, doctors weren't allowed to give it to women in labour because the church said that the pain of childbirth was gods punishment' for sleeping with men...

THINGS I DONT DEBATE WITH MEN :
1. Abortion
2. Breastfeeding
3. Menstruation
4. Female body hair
5. Birth Control
6. Access to feminine hygiene products

Why? Because NONE of those involve the male body & therefore don't create any valid MALE OPINIONS

She faked insanity to get in... but she didn't know if she could get out. In 1887, 23-year-old Nellie Bly got herself committed to a notorious asylum to expose the truth. But the moment she dropped the act and spoke normally, the doctors ignored her. She was trapped. For 10 days, she documented ice-cold baths, beatings, and sane women locked away just for being poor.
She escaped, exposed the horror, and saved 1,600 women. She didn't just write history—she changed it.

A grandmother in Missouri is pushing for a new law that would require drunk drivers to pay child support if they kill a parent. (Bentley's Law)

This is Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been imprisoned by ICE for a year.

He was about to get new prosthetic legs when he was kidnapped… and they won’t let him have them.

His health is declining & there’s been almost no media coverage.

No protests. No noise.

I’m always gonna retweet these cuz I know somebody who was in deep trouble and she escaped cuz of a clip like this she caught on Twitter.

[Kia @xevekiah]

One night I asked my mom how she knew my dad was “the one.” She didn’t say butterflies. She didn’t say grand gestures.

She said, “There was a year I wasn’t okay.”

She told me after I was born, she felt overwhelmed all the time. She stopped talking as much. Stopped laughing as loudly. She said she felt guilty for not being her usual self.
And my dad didn’t demand the “old her” back.

He just started doing small things.

He would wake up earlier to pack her lunch.
He’d fold the laundry without announcing it.
He’d sit beside her on the couch and just hold her hand without asking a single question.

She said one night she finally cried and told him she felt like she was failing at everything.

He didn’t interrupt.
Didn’t give a motivational speech.
Didn’t say “but you have so much to be grateful for.”

He just listened.

And the next week?
He didn’t treat her like she was fragile.
Didn’t bring it up during arguments.
Didn’t use it as proof that she was “too emotional.”

He loved her the same. Calm. Steady. Normal.

My mom looked at me and said,
“That’s when I knew. Love isn’t the loud days. It’s who stays gentle on the quiet ones.”

And suddenly their 20+ years together made sense.

Real love doesn’t panic when you’re not at your best.
It adjusts.
It waits.
It stays.

[PATRIOTS OF BRITAIN @POB4LIFE]

THIS IS JUDGE JOHNATHAN DURHAM HALL

He refused to jail a 15 year old girl who stabbed a 56 year old man who had sexually abused her as a child. The girl was originally charged with wounding with intent but later pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.

Judge Jonathan Durham Hall KC decided NOT to send her to prison, saying it would be “callous and cruel” given her trauma and the context of her life.

He gave her a supervised two-year youth rehabilitation order instead of custody.

The judge also refused to impose the mandatory small victim surcharge (a fine) and said, “If anyone tries to force you to pay it, I will pay it myself.”

The judge was later punished for that comment and it resulted in a formal reprimand from the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office for breaching judicial conduct guidance.

Full respect to this judge and credit to predator awareness for this article.

[Ayesha Tabassum @ayesha3920]

I told my therapist:

“I’m not suicidal…
but I’m tired in a way that scares me.”

She didn’t brush it off.
She didn’t say “everyone gets tired.”
She didn’t tell me to think positive.

She said softly:
