Always suppressing your anger just to achieve a performative level of “niceness”, merely so that other people think you’re palatable and likable, is incredibly unhealthy for women. Men can get away with being violent and aggressive in everything they do but women have to maintain an appearance of being balanced and sweet so that they don’t threaten anyone, especially men. This is one of the many ways women are taught to drain themselves. I prefer being hated by manipulative and judgmental people to forcing myself to be something I’m not just for validation.
letter from a lesbian to her close friend in a used copy of woman hating by andrea dworkin. found at a half price books in columbus, OH. i hope the woman who wrote this is happier now than she was 30 years ago.
what makes me sad is that lesbians today still have these same exact fears and struggles
i, too, hope that this woman has ended up in a good place and is doing well in the world
I was out with a friend tonight doing one of my fave things. Reading the backs of romance novels aloud. Found this gem.
This is honestly the most wild sounding romance novel I have ever seen and thought it might brighten someone’s day.
OK FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON’T REALIZE, SANDRA HILL IS THE WOMAN WHO WROTE “ROUGH AMD READY” ANOTHER EROTIC VIKING NOVEL. SOME OF THE MORE MEMORABLE QUOTES BEING:
“As Hilda’s buttermilk bosoms squished up against his granite abs, Torolf almost had a dick aneurysm.”
“Torolf entered her like she was a lottery. His engorged pecker pushed inside her and she felt fulfilled with sexual fulfillment.”
“Her body was like a beautiful flower that was opening and somebody was pushing their dick inside it.”
YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE I HAVE READ THIS TO AT COLLEGE. ONE GUY COMPLETELY LOST IT FOR LIKE 10 MINUTES AFTER HEARING THE PHRASE “DICK ANEURYSM.”
