Good news, fellow men: our terrible behavior isn’t biological

cannibal-rainbow:

  • The belief that men are biologically inclined to be more aggressive and oppressive is false.
  • Men do not need to repress a instinct to be aggressive because it doesn’t exist.
  • They are taught from an early age to repress all emotions except for anger which leads to violent outbursts.
  • Toxic masculinity upholds this repression leading to many
    men not knowing how to communicate clearly and to associate women with
    emotions they deem “inferior”.

Imagine being a writer, and then after your book’s release and when the hype goes through the roof, you write fanfiction for it, then you tweet “there is a fanfic out there that is totally canon. Try and find it.” Then all your readers are scouring every fanfic website, trying to find which one is yours, meanwhile helping all these fanfic writers get readers.

I mean david gaider did this. david gaider wrote dragon age 2 fanfiction on the kink meme and we still don’t know for sure which one is his

WHAT

WHAT

Ah I remember this, because Gaider was talking (on Twitter) about how he spent a lot of time on the kink meme reading stories. Then thousands of kink meme authors freaked out, wondering if Gaider came across theirs and then he winky face announced writing fanfic on the kink meme for fun.

The DA Kink Meme Scandal was a classic.

Took awhile, but you’re welcome.

An actual gay legend.

This incredible invention is keeping girls in school

For Trinitas Kunashe, like many girls in Malawi, getting her period was unexpected, unexplained and a burden for her everyday life. Often, girls who do not have access to pads prefer to stay home and out of school for the duration of their periods.

But Trinitas is changing that with her amazing new invention:

Made from bright and comfortable locally-sourced fabrics, Tina Pads are a hit amongst girls in her community. They are waterproof, practical and fun – and most importantly reusable.

Determined to make sure no girl is forced to miss school because of her period, Trinitas is a passionate believer in the power of education to change lives.
