Pinkification is the scourge of equality. Feminist. Parent. Writer.

The thing that bugs women about the postpartum post is that women are asked to put aside their desires for 10+ months. During pregnancy you can't drink, smoke or eat certain foods. Your body hurts you might throw up for months. Childbirth is excruciating. It's a huge sacrifice.

Men sacrificing pleasure for a few weeks shouldn't be too big of an ask.

Why isn’t there a bald man forcibly kissing the Spanish players? Very confused

As a child bereaved by fatal domestic abuse, headlines calling a man who killed three women a “nice guy” and “normal person” have felt personally traumatic.

The media called my father a “gentle man” and “nice chap”, which misrepresented the controlling reality that myself and my family experienced for years. It compounded our trauma.

Reporting like this causes so much damage – both to victims’ families, and to public understandings of coercive control. It has to stop. Now.

We need every single newsroom trained in how to report domestic abuse deaths, and to lobby the regulator for stronger rules. The press has the power to prevent further deaths and save women’s lives.

Please support this crowdfunder I’ve started to support @we_level_up’s crucial work to train journalists in their Dignity For Dead Women guidelines.

In response to 🇦🇫 banning their women’s team ICC could:

suspend 🇦🇫’s Test status

allocate 50% of their funding towards supporting the women’s team

allow the women’s team to play as a neutral ICC XI

The current head in the sand approach is unjust. Show some damn leadership!

When I see how a man is dressed, I assume he used clothing he had available, felt was appropriate for the occasion, & that made himself feel great. I certainly don’t assume he put himself together for my attention. Why can’t men extend the same decency to women?

So my workplace has put on an event for #IWD with mandatory office attendance (on a day my team usually works from home). What do we think about this??

@Julie_Delahaye Please could you provide an idea of the salary?

Feminists’ attitudes towards men – Six studies, in the most systematic examination yet of feminists’ actual and perceived attitudes toward men, find that feminists’ attitudes toward men are broadly positive and broadly similar to other people’s attitudes toward men.
Findings:
1/3

What were the men wearing when they were robbed? Thats what I want to know, I’m sorry but if you go out parading yourself in a sexy little £2k suit and slutty Churches brogues you’re asking for trouble.

[Uju Anya @UjuAnya]

How many women on here had sex with a man when you didn’t want to, because he

insisted
begged
pleaded
forced
threatened
bargained
promised
cried
said “just the tip,” etc.

And you let him continue what he was doing just to get it over with?

I’m trying to see something.

🚨THIS IS SHOCKING🚨 By the age of 25, women have on average taken home £35k less in pay than men.

Where on Earth @ITVXhelp are you hiding the current #RWC2023 game, #JapanVSamoa? All the old games are there but not the live one??

[Rosetintedtentacles 💙 @Rosetintentacle]

@ITVXhelp Thank you, but we don’t have ITV4 on our smart TV. Can we not get it through the app? I don’t want to watch on phone
