“The institution of marriage is not under attack as a result of the President’s words. Marriage was under attack years ago by men who viewed women as property and children as trophies of sexual prowess. Marriage is under attack by low wages, high incarceration, unfair tax policy, unemployment, and lack of education. Marriage is under attack by clergy who proclaim monogamy yet think nothing of stepping outside the bonds of marriage to have multiple affairs with “preaching groupies.”
Rev. Otis Moss III, Senior Pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ (via touchoftea)

One of the many reasons why I’m team Eric…always will be!
“Well, guess what? I’m a sexual creature. There’s nothing wrong with that. Why do we have to be ashamed of being so many different things? Why do we have to be only one thing, a good mother or a hooker? I don’t think that what’s under my clothes is evil. I’m a woman, I’m feminine. And I like the way I look. And I celebrate that. And I don’t make excuses for that.” - Charlize Theron

When…
did ethics become vital to Tumblr? *shrugs shoulder* Pick a number between 0 and 0, and that’s the amount fucks I give….oh well.
I can’t get away from THAT book…the past day, I have came across at least 20 people who are reading/have read it…
“I don’t care how much sex anyone has, how often they do it, or who they do it with. I’m much more interested in the consent, pleasure, and well-being of the participants and the people affected by it. I respect women who are asexual, celibate, monogamous, multi-partnered, or have had more partners than they can recall. I respect women who only have sex after a commitment to monogamy and those who have sex with someone within minutes of meeting them. I respect women who have transactional sex, women who have sex for love, or for any other reason. I know that all of these categories are permeable and that many women move from one to another. And I know that any of these decisions can be made from a place of personal power, choice, and authenticity, as well as from a place of coercion, shame, and disempowerment.”
