I Drank My Glass of Bitch

Hold on to your hats, Cats and Kittens, I drank my glass of bitch this morning and I’ve decided to go off on a few things.

I am really growing to hate the CNN. The CNN itself is okay. I don’t trust most media sources, and the CNN does that obnoxious thing of taking something and freaking the fuck out about it until I want to stab my own ear drums out. All news sources do this, so it only bugs me a little. Why I really hate the CNN is because my dad watches it for hours every morning and bitches about what is on it. I swear to gawd if I hear more stuff about gun control on either side I will flip the fuck out. ALL THE WAY OUT. I get my news off the interwebz from several sources, but I don’t think “news” saturation for hours is healthy. Oh, and most of the “news” on all of the news channels is just a bunch of talking heads blathering. If I wanted that, I would read my blog.

So, I know a lot of people deny there is a need for feminism in the world. Women are equal, un-objectified, and treated with fairness. This is what I have to say to that: fuck you rape culture. What is rape culture, you might ask? Our culture is rape culture. We go apeshit when a woman in India is gang raped and dies, as we should, but when a teenage girl in Steubenville, Ohio is dragged unconscious from party to party to be assaulted while asshole video tape, Facebook, and Tweet the damn crime, our rage is pretty subdued. There is evidence this girl was assaulted at COACHES homes. They were football players so no one seems in that big of a hurry to prosecute. News articles here.

Another girl was gang raped by some high school boys who posted stories of her attack on the internet. The judge put a gag order on the case, so when the girl said something about her attackers, she was arrested. Mind you, she never mentioned anything in court, just the boys names. Their names weren’t a secret BECAUSE THEY POSTED ABOUT HER RAPE ALREADY.

Okay, back to ‘Fuck You, rape culture,’ I know we have it built into our system because I had it programmed into me, too. Think about some of the things we think when we hear a girl was raped, if we hear at all. We wonder what she was wearing, where she was at, or if she was inebriated. Guess what? None of that matters. A woman can pass out while naked in the middle of a bar and not be at fault for her rape. Human males are not mindless fuck machines that see female skin and lose all control of themselves. The attackers are to blame no matter how short her skirt was or how drunk she was.

Think about how many bros get drunk at bars and take off their shirts. Does their drunken, undressed states make it okay for us to pull down their pants and sodomize them?

Exactly.

Next time you hear about a woman being assaulted and you think these things, stop yourself and instead think about how strong she is for reporting the assault. Train your sons to understand that rape culture demeans them, too. Get pissed off. Talk about what happened to you. I know far too many women who have been sexually abused and assaulted, and I feel that they should tell their stories. It is time for women to stand up against it. It is far too common and not at all okay.

The bitch juice has bled from my body.
