"She had a personality and eyes"

“In the American social system, the concept of diversity is considered triggering. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these false claims that equality and diversity are stealing opportunities from white people are members of an elite squad known as Playing-the-Victims unit. These are their stories.”

💀💀💀💀 This is everything.

The woke misogynist is a guy who talks a big game about gender equality and consent, uses vocabulary like “triggering” without rolling his eyes, wears a pussy hat to the Women’s March, prefers to fuck feminists and may freely call himself one, too—then turns around and harasses you, assaults you, or belittles you. Perhaps his behavior throws you off because, unlike the whimpster or emosogynist of the aughts, he’s confident in himself and his pro-woman bonafides. Or because he apologizes nicely and indulges you in a thoughtful conversation after the offending incident. Or, most likely, because his misogyny is more ambiguous and subtle than that of, say, Bill Cosby or Roger Ailes or Donald Trump.

I know a few…

“When women of color speak out of the anger that laces so many of our contacts with white women, we are often told that we are ‘creating a mood of hopelessness,’ ‘preventing white women from getting past guilt,’ or 'standing in the way of trusting communication and action,’” Lorde said. – I want no part of the type of feminism that refuses to acknowledge that women of color face a different type of misogyny than white women do. I want no part of the type of feminism that discriminates against and dismisses sex workers and the trans community. You should not be allowed to call yourself a feminist if you don’t fight for all women. You Amy Schumers and Lena Dunhams of the world can get mad all you want, but we will not stay silent, your white feminism is not needed nor wanted here. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
