There needs to be more of this. Too many people think domestic violence is only against women.
it makes me mad that this has waaaay less notes than the female version
its tumblr
The posts that say we need feminism because girls are literally demonised for liking pumpkin spice are going to get more notes then anything to do with male victims of rape or domestic violence
however, feminists are the group that will stand up for male victims of domestic violence before anyone else does
just because a post doesn’t get around as quickly as another one doesn’t mean it’s viewed as less important, it just means that it’s not being shown to the right people at the right time
the recognition of domestic abuse victims is imperative, male or female or otherwise, but you can’t expect everything to go from 0 to 100 just like that
Why is this only the first time I’ve seen this
First time I’ve seen but I hope it’s not the last.
“All victims — no matter their gender or sexual orientation — deserve empathy and justice.”
You know what Francis said to me when he proposed? I remember his exact words. He said, ‘Claire, if all you want is happiness, say no. I’m not gonna give you a couple of kids and count the days until retirement. I promise you freedom from that. I promise you’ll never be bored.’ You know, he was the only man - and there were a lot of others who proposed - but he was the only one who understood me. He didn’t put me on some pedestal. He knew that I didn’t want to be adored or coddled. So he took my hand and put a ring on it. Because he knew I’d say yes.
