literally Boris Johnson, conservative MP and Mayor of London, is a MESS

feminhistory:

despite all this – no BECAUSE of all this, he’s revered by the UK public as a friendly loveable buffoon with silly hair. female politicians can’t even look angry in photos without being torn apart by the media as high-strung and too emotional for public office. yet here we have an actually ridiculous politician, who only got his position bc he’s David Cameron’s old Bullingdon buddy, who is problematic and gross in every way and people lap it up as part of his charm. 

what makes this all the more infuriating is that boris johnson gets away with all of this without a single scratch to his popularity or reputation whilst Ed Miliband (leader of the Tories main opponent the Labour Party) is scorned and ripped apart by the Conservative owned media for eating a sandwich

but nah, keep telling me democracy prevailed on the 8th.

seriously though I know we’re all having a laugh about cheeky nandos, however lad culture is a big problem in UK universities, it’s a term for misogyny in disguise, it endorses rape culture and over half of students in some universities have experience with it. the NUS are trying to raise awareness of it as are most of the feminist societies in universities but people like me encounter it every day and every night and it’s not something to be taken lightly.

We all have opinions right, cool. You can believe WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANT. Don’t really need MJ fans crawling out of the woodwork screaming their’s at me. I’ll make a deal, I’ll keep my opinions off of the MJ tag if you keep yours off of the Gwen tag. Cause god knows there are opinions there.

Thank You and Goodnight.

Any questions or Concerns Message me.

Weeeeeell….

Out of curiosity, I went to have a look at the Gwen Stacy tag. The first few pages are full of shitty sexist porn, but no negative comments about Gwen the character. On page five or thereabouts, there is a negative ‘lol I hate her’ type comment, but it makes no reference to MJ (and is also shitty and sexist). I’ve been back over thirty pages now in the Gwen tag and there’s yet to be a single reference to ‘Gwen vs MJ’, or any post comparing her negatively to any of the other women. Which is a very good thing in itself, but that brings me to-

Can you point me to this rampant Gwen-bashing that MJ fans are doing in her tag?

people talking about “forced diversity” like characters being PoC or LGBT or disabled “for no reason” like

are people in real life PoC or LGBT or disabled for a reason

do these critics run up to people on the street like WHY ARE YOU BLACK
