so little time

Feminists have always been accused of hating men because it is a very effective way of silencing a very threatening movement. In a society where women’s value is based on our ability to please men, and where men hold almost all the cards, the worst possible thing we can do is hate them. So when feminists point out and object to the oppression, abuse and discrimination perpetuated by men against women, this is framed as man hating in an attempt to silence us, in an attempt to ensure that we are vilified and ignored by the rest of society, so that male oppression of women and male privilege can continue unchecked.

No matter how we frame our arguments and no matter what kind of image we seek to project, as long as we highlight, object to and fight misogyny, feminists are going to be called man haters.

So I’m not going to waste my time trying to prove that I’m not.

Just go see this movie. It is important that we know our history. It is important that we know how long it took us to get here. To this point. Just watch it, okay?

Avatar My name is Martina, I'm 20 and I'm addicted. To the world. You'll see.

Leaning languages is the best and most complicated but beautiful journey one could ever wish for. It's also a little crazy, but that's part of the experience.

"I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life. And I am horribly limited" -Sylvia Plath

So this is me. The one with the chair. Yes, I know I'm ridiculous. *tweet tweet*
