5 | on tumblr: | guys we need to have a serious discussion about the erasure of nonbinary trans* people |
|---|---|
| in real life: | ok, I guess I have to explain to my entire class how "feminist" is not an insult |
I have my own beliefs, and those beliefs are very dear to me. One of them is that I do not impose my beliefs on other people. Many, many years ago, I had a dear, close family relative that was very close to me who passed away from an illegal abortion. It is since that time that my mother and my family have been committed to the belief that we can believe as we want, but we will not force our beliefs on others on that matter. And you will not see me wavering on that.

It’s very sad that Mitt has this opportunity to share this information with people who will actually listen to him, and he’s choosing not to because of political pressure.

| Me on the first episode of Downton: | Wow, this is the classiest show ever and my liking for it is completely rational and intellectual. I bet the fandom get together for tea parties where they discuss the intricacies of the early 20th century British class system, the historical accuracy of the show, and the aesthetic and lingual merit of the fantastic script... |

| Me now: | THESE COUSINS ARE GETTING MARRIED AND HAVING SEX BEHIND A BUSH. THE CHAUFFEUR STUCK AN IRISH PEEN IN THE EARL'S YOUNGEST DAUGHTER. THE MIDDLE CHILD IS KIND OF SAD.

Members Of New GOP Women’s Caucus Voted Against Equality For Women
The 24 Republican Congresswomen in the U.S. House announced yesterday that they have joined to form the Women’s Policy Committee, a caucus aimed at “raising the profile of GOP women in their roles as lawmakers, highlighting their diverse achievements and providing a unique, unified voice on a wide range of critically important issues.”
But a ThinkProgress review of their voting records shows that the two dozen women have been fairly consistent in their legislative opposition to women’s rights:
- Violence Against Women: Of the 24 women, 22 voted to rollback theViolence Against Women Act, backing a version of the bill that couldviolate the confidentiality of victims and that excluded protections for immigrants, LGBT people, and Native Americans.
- Access to contraception: 21 of the 24 co-sponsored the “Respect for Rights of Conscience Act” to take away regulations enacted under Obamacare requiring most employers to cover birth control in their health insurance plans, without additional cost-sharing.
- Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act: Of the 15 Republican Congresswomen who were in the House at the time, all 15 voted against the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, a law that helps women hold accountable employers who discriminate in the pay practices based on gender.
- Paycheck Fairness Act Act: 13 of those 15 also voted against the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would update the 1963 Equal Pay Act by closing many of its loopholes and strengthening incentives to prevent pay discrimination.
- Reproductive health: According to Planned Parenthood, 20 of the 24 GOP women earned a zero score, voting against reproductive health at every opportunity. The average score for the women was under 6 percent.
In lauding the group’s formation, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said “Make no mistake, these aren’t just leaders on so-called ‘women’s issues,’ these are women leaders on all issues.”
But their leadership on women’s issues has been decidedly absent. In fact, even in their two-minutes-and-fifteen-seconds introductory video “Working For You,” they note they are “working together to create jobs, reduce spending, health small businesses, and put back into your hands.” But they do not name a single accomplishment or goal relating to equal protection for women.

I need intersectional, inclusive feminism because the voices of our PoC, trans*, disabled and more sisters (and brothers) are too often silenced or ignored by everyone, the feminist movement included.
I need this kind of feminism all the more because the only ‘critiques’ most people ever offer of the movement are nothing to do with this very real, very legitimate problem, but just that ‘feminists are all just sexist against men’ or ‘women have rights so it’s no longer relevant’.
