what is the january mood?

Women can be investigated for murder for giving birth to a stillborn child or having a miscarriage. Rapists get sentenced to little/no prison and get off without even having to register as a sex offender. Women are still paid less than men. Condoms are free, but birth control is not and some states in the U.S. are even taking away the option for IUDs. After giving birth, women who have ripped their own flesh from the physical trauma of giving birth can be stitched back up and then given one too many stitches to make her “tighter” for her husband, thus why this occurrence is called “the husband stitch”. Men can get themselves sterilized no problem, but women often have issues finding a doctor who will sterilize them without them being married and having their husband’s consent.

Alright, so go ahead. Tell me how feminism isn’t needed anymore. Tell me why you think that any of the above situations are anywhere near the ballpark of being “okay”. But before you open your mouth, think about how you would feel if I had just told you the situation was reversed. What if I told you that men got paid less than women? That if a 12 year old boy got raped by another man, there would be no consequences for the rapist? What if I told you men needed their wife’s permission to get sterilized and if they weren’t married yet then they might have to wait until they are just in case their wife wants kids?

Sexism isn’t a joke. It’s a real problem that affects real people. It’s still a current problem. Just because women can vote and we’re allowed to own land doesn’t mean all of our problems went away.

I'm in a groupchat with a bunch of queer people and someone made a joke about how dating someone who is in the closet is a terrible idea and everyone kind of laughed and agreed without discussing it more. Is that really a thing? I've been dating the same girl for almost a year and she's in the closet, and it hasn't really affected our relationship, but now I'm nervous

no it’s not a thing, and it’s a shitty joke to make, but people make it a lot. they usually mean it in the usual, “haha closeted people are ashamed of being lgbt/closeted people hate themselves/they’re scared to be seen in public on a date/you have to pretend to be just friends” way, which is infuriating. closeted gay/trans people aren’t necessarily self loathing or ashamed, and even if they are, those traits aren’t exclusive to closeted people, and considering that most of us have been closeted at some point or another, we should be able to fucking empathize with people who have to do that all the time.

we all know why closeted people are closeted. it’s because homophobia/transphobia is alive and real and has dire fucking consequences for a lot of us. no one, esp other lgbt people who know both the consequences of being out and the consequences of being closeted, should ostracize or belittle those who aren’t ready or able to come out.
