Blog of a veggie lady who can't stay in one place for too long, loves to dumpster dive, loves to craft and can rant about feminism for hours! Just little notes and photos from my travels and the qwirky, fun, arty and ridiculous things I've seen! (and things I've found in bins.)
Today one of my friends posted this up and I was shocked. I have so much respect for this woman, I thought we were on the same page, we even went to Slutwalk together!
So now I can’t stop ranting about how deeply imbedded slut shaming is into society.
She’s on tumblr, so if you see this lovely, I’m not being a dick, I just really didn’t agree with what you said and was pretty shocked.

Anonymous asked:
How come you think Game of Thrones is sexist?
Well to be fair, I haven’t seen it so shouldn’t judge, but various podcasts/reviews/etc have assured me it’s very unlikely I’d want to other than from an objective point of view. A few examples:

Also the fantasy genre tends to often fall into being accidentally sexist more than a lot of genres do.
Above all I think it’s all the stuff people have told me about the apparent amount of (mostly irrelevant to the story) rape the series has in it =/
