" … the socialization of boys regarding masculinity is often at the expense of women. I came to realize that we don’t raise boys to be men, we raise them not to be women (or gay men). We teach boys that girls and women are “less than” and that leads to violence by some and silence by many. It’s important for men to stand up to not only stop men’s violence against women but, to teach young men a broader definition of masculinity that includes being empathetic, loving and non-violent."

had a great birthday yesterday, ended up being better than I thought it’d be. :) now the bf and I are going up to Minneapolis for the weekend with his friend and girlfriend as kind of a double-date type weekend thing. it should be fun; i haven’t been to the Mall of America in foreverrrrrrrr. 


Happy birthday to me! 

requested off work today so it’s going to be just a day of self pampering and playing video games until my bf is off and we go to dinner tonight. it’s gonna be goooooooood.


Tomorrow’s my bday! :D 

Turning 20. I’ll finally be out of my damn teens. [More excited for than that you can imagine.] Then we’re going to dinner at Taki [fancy Asian cuisine] and over the weekend we’re heading up to the Mall of America. It’s gonna be faboo~




“Well, the world has changed so radically, and we’re all running to catch up. I don’t want to jump to any conclusions, but look: Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by sixty-five million years of evolution have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea what to expect?”

TIME’s new cover makes me so mad I could write essays about it, but instead I’m going to keep job hunting since in today’s world a university degree means nothing and therefore like much of my generation, I’m stuck choosing between minimum wage jobs and internships that I can’t afford to accept in an attempt to pay off my tens of thousands of dollars worth of student debt.

I’d be interested in reading this article to see exactly what makes us entitled and lazy. Are we lazy because more of us are completing high school and going to college than ever before? Are we entitled because our standard of living is declining? Do we live with our parents because we’re too slothful to leave or is because our education costs are getting steeper and steeper while we’re getting less and less aid?
Tell us, Time Magazine, about how we’re narcissistic little slugs when we’re faced with an economic crisis that resulted in a lowering of our standard of living, an increase in tuition costs and how when we get out of our very expensive schools, more and more of us are going to end up working minimum wage jobs. 

I also want to note that it’s really frustrating that the face of “lazy, entitled narcissism” is a young woman.

‘The series focuses on the clothing that women think they should wear, or are told what to wear, to impress someone in a sexual manner. There is a physical mark that is left from these clothes, showing the discomfort women go through.’
