“I don’t want to be a feminist anymore. Like a five-year-old, I want to close my eyes, stick my fingers in my ears, stomp my feet on the floor and scream “No! No, you cannot make me, I won’t, leave me alone!” I am, simply put, too tired. So very, very tired.
I am tired of fighting with my friends. I am tired of arguing that someone groping and slapping my butt isn’t “what I have to expect,” just because I’m at a bar, and the one attacking my butt has a drink in the other hand. I am tired of hearing “boys will be boys” and “when you’re dressed like that …” and “that’s just what guys do.” I am tired of trying to drown those sentiments in loud, repetitive no’s, screamed over and over again, till my throat is sore and my voice weak – just to hear them repeated, as soon as exhaustion threatens to silence me.
I am tired of being afraid. I am tired of seeing someone writing something offensive, sexist, racist, ageist, ableist, somewhere online. I am tired of seeing those writings getting likes and lol’s, and SO TRUE’s. I am tired of being consumed by confusion and anger, typing, typing, typing and typing a seemingly endless response, including research, links and statistics, and then hesitate clicking “submit.” I am tired of knowing that I hesitate because I am afraid of the flood of responses that will come. I am tired of knowing that I will be bombarded with lighten up’s, stop whining’s and get a sense of humor’s for so long, that I will start to wonder if I am indeed wound up too tight, a nagger and humorless. I am tired of the fact that I’m afraid of being called a cunt, even though I don’t find genitalia insulting or demeaning.”

I don’t want to be a feminist anymore

  • Moffat: You can sort of imagine a television series where Alex Kingston sort of rolls around space with her little team and Daves and Anita. Probably romantically linked with all of them.
  • Tennant: WHAT? You don't think she's faithful to her husband?
  • Moffat: Why would she be faithful to her husband if she doesn't have a husband?
  • Tennant: I'm not suggesting, but if she were to have a husband. Well she might not have a husband, if she WERE to have a husband, I THINK she'd be faithful!
  • Moffat: She's a 51st century kind of woman! We know about the 51st century.
  • Tennant: Oh! Don't tar everyone with Captain Jack's brush!

It’s funny how everything can change in a few moments.

stormbornns whispered: Peter Pan!

Anonymous whispered: Alice from "Alice in Wonderland"
