“If sexism is a gun, men hold it. And sometimes it recoils and hits them and that HURTS…but not as much as getting hit with the bullet.”

If I wasn’t me I’d be jealous of me.

And suddenly, in a week where things were looking pretty grim for the men of Australia, Chief of Army David Morrison arose to kick some derrière.

I would like to see this played in public at regular intervals, perhaps with a “Men of Australia” introduction. Repeat offenders will have Lt Gen Morrison come around to your house and yell at you until you spontaneously combust.

Rapists and sexual abusers and bullies and sexists: Lt Gen Morrison is going to SMASH YOU (with words and sternness).

“If that does not suit you, then get out. You may find another employer where your attitude and behaviour is accepted, but I doubt it. […] If you become aware of any individual degrading another, then show moral courage, and take a stand against it.”

imnotcaradelevingne:

What a world where calling out sexism gets you accused of “playing the gender card” or “igniting a gender war”, but rampant sexism from males in politics is allowed to run wild, unscrutinised.

Just last night, a menu from a Liberal Party fundraising event came into the spotlight:

Yet this example of vile, horrendous sexism about our female Prime Minister, endorsed by the Liberal Party, gets not even a shred of the outrage that Julia Gillard’s comments did.

What hope do we have in achieving equality when such appalling double standards exist and are promoted by two of the most powerful forces in society: the media, and political figures.

These repulsive examples just prove why sexism needs to be called out.

And until we can do that without being accused of using it in some selfish way and “playing the gender card”, something is desperately fucking wrong.

Commander Shepard and Lara won’t be taking any of your shit today.

NOBODY EVEN SAYS THAT THEY DON”T THOUGH

I’ve literally never heard a single human being ever question the presence of any female in any video game in my life. The only time I see the phrase “Women Don’t Belong In Video Games” is on comments and posts saying it’s stupid.
