Why the Rest of the World's Women Will Be Marching This Weekend

 

Will be checking out the women's march in London on Saturday with some friends. Seen some amazing banners posted on the facebook event.

 

I would love to go to a women's March this weekend but it's not in the cards for me unfortunately

 

It was fascinating how many white men yelled "you lost" at me today while I was decked out in Planned Parenthood gear.

What was even better was their expression when I informed them that non-profits can't run for president.

 

Gina and I are going to the march in San Jose tomorrow. It's going to be raining (woo, we need it) so I'm debating wearing my rainbow flag as a cape. y/n?

 

Do it.

 

Cheap Girls are breaking up because someone was compiling all the sexual abuse allegations against Ian and I guess he wanted to get ahead of it and exit as gracefully as possible (can read his statement here if you care)


You *can* make a difference in helping fix the scene. The rumors against Ian have been around for a while and nothing happened, so I'm fairly confident this wouldn't have happened if someone didn't decide to start compiling the allegations and if his victims didn't reach out to them (which happened pretty recently) and not just Ian randomly having a change of heart

 

These speakers..America Ferrera had me in tears.

 

I couldn't go marching today in my local women's march, but I started a $10 monthly donation to Planned Parenthood.
I'm stoked that the march got about 10,000 people, maybe more.

 

That's just as amazing as marching, love.

 

Kill me.

 

that tweet is so bad but um the answer is duh of course they would right

Could you please share some article/post regarding Ian's past actions? Googled it and couldn't find anything :( Many thanks in advance

 

French Feminist Groups Plan Protest of Cesar Awards After Roman Polanski Named President

 

Idek if this is the right place to post this but my bff is struggling and I feel so bad. Her dad was accused by his former employee of rape and obv he told my bff he didn't do it, but she's super conflicted. She's actually handling it a lot more mature than I would. I'd not function anymore. She's basically like he's my dad so of course I don't wanna believe it, but as a woman I also don't wanna doubt someone coming forward about rape. Idek what to tell her. I think that's about all she can do. I think many ppl would freak out and hate the person accusing their father, so I think she's handling it admirably. Her dad wasn't found guilty but she's still like idk they just didn't have enough evidence to say he did it but what if he did?? And like idek what do you say to someone in that situation? I just told her I think she's handling it the best way she can and offer my support, but I feel like she'll never get answers definitively like she needs and she'll always wonder in the back of her mind if her dad did this horrible thing. I'd go crazy. I just wanna cry for her.

British Prime Minister Theresa May will not confront Trump about sexism

lol

 

I don't know if anybody has seen the video but earlier I saw a video of a protestor having their hair set on fire by an opposite protestor when they were turned around.

 

So let me get this straight, anyone who participated in the Women's March is a thin-skinned politically correct social justice warrior crybaby obsessed with self-victimization, grandstanding, and virtue signaling, and any alt-right hero who shuts down protesters should be applauded for being patriotic citizens stopping the hypocrisy of bigoted liberal snobs. Did I use all their favorite buzz words, or is there something I missed?
