hi all! really excited to announce i've started an all-female discord server for students!
Gyns Get Grades (GGG) is a space for women of all ages to find community through their studies, whether you're still in high school, trekking through undergrad, working on your doctorate, or even just studying a topic/language in your free time. here, we have study room voice channels, areas to relax and take a breather, QOTDs, fun events, and more!
i would love to see this take off, so even if you aren't interested in joining, please reblog to reach as many women as possible :)

"that time of the month" "monthly visitor" "feminine hygiene products" GRRAH!!! SHUT UP SHUT UP!!! PERIOD!! MENSTRUATION!!!! TAMPONS!!! PADS!! MENOPAUSE!!!!!!!!!!!
i really like the definition of “adult human female” because it says “thats all it is. its not femininity, makeup, submissiveness, softness, anything. all it is is biology. the rest is up to the individual”
Hot take but "nice" catcalling (e.g those "wholesome" videos where a guy yells some variation of "I like your shoes" or "you're a badass" or whatever the fuck) completely misses the point about why catcalling is bad
Yeah, sure, you're not being sexually inappropriate with a stranger, but you are still infringing on her (let's not pretend it isn't always "her") ability to move through the world unimpeded. You are still demanding her attention. You are still deciding that you having something to say to her is more important than her right to be left alone.
It's exactly the same kind of bs as all those jumpscare stories where the punchline is "haha I made you THINK I was a bigot but AKSHUALLY I'm an ally!" (E.g "when my son came out I told him I refused to let him live under my roof...until we got him a boyfriend!!" etc)
Every woman's fight or flight reflex kicks in when she's catcalled, and your "nice genuine compliment" triggers that just as much as some douche saying "hey sexy"
More to the point, she still has no way of predicting how you're going to react if she doesn't engage with you the way you want, which is, crucially, *why* catcalling triggers the fight or flight reflex in the first place
Tl;dr you are never entitled to women's attention even if you think you're being nice. Leave women in public alone.
Being nefarious with mama
I can’t get into it without outing myself and my job, but damn I wish people could figure out how to break the rules on their own. If you involve me, if you tell me you’re going to violate a contract, I am required to do something. I’m not a cop! I’m not a narc! You could simply not tell me this shit! I am begging you to not tell me! Don’t send me an email to my work address that says “I’m going to violate our contract, how would you suggest I do it?” Well first things first don’t fucking tell me
Hmmm I know octopuses are generally sweet and gentle and are just curious sea puppies (and I love them!), that being said, the thoughts of being dragged by my feet by one of them into the deep and dark ocean is… safe to say new fear has been unlocked

The knowledge of Their happily ever after and the fact that indeed there's an alternative outside the plate will fix me
Today I learned if you don't feel like making the bed and tugging the sheets under mattress blah blah blah all that work, you can just clip it in place
