[R]ace, gender, and sexual stereotypes intertwine in different ways. Thus, African American men are stereotyped as hypermasculine and oversexed, and African American women as promiscuous, bad mothers, and nurturing ‘mammies’ who care for everyone else, but not their own children.. Latinos are stereotyped as ‘macho’, and like African American men, sexually passionate, but out of control. Latinas are stereotyped as either ‘hot’ or virgin-like. Similarly, white women are sexually stereotyped in dichotomous terms as ‘madonnas’ or ‘whores’. Working-class women are more likely to be seen as ‘sluts’ and upper-class women as frigid and cold.

There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must of felt what it is to die, Morrel, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.

Live, then, and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget, that until the day God will deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in these two words, ‘Wait and Hope.

Required Summer Reading

Disclaimer: This blog has never, and will never, support the voluntary reading of The Catcher in the Rye. However, this is cute. So I’ll allow this temporary blip. Admire the illustration.

ok none of that bullshit emotional stuff

THESE are the best feelings in the world:

  • peeing after holding it in all day
  • orgasms
  • faking ill and getting sent back to bed 
  • getting a back massage
  • seeing somebody you don’t like fall over omfg 
  • when you try and talk to your pet in their language and you feel like you’re having a conversation (this might just be me idk)

This just made me feel a little better.

Alternate Universe → Irene Adler and Amy Pond

the noise i just made would make kelly kline proud.

in my perfect world amy realises she’s a lesbian and splits amicably from rory who runs off to be the doctor’s companion but amy stays behind to raise baby melody (they get the baby back in this world don’t question me) with her new girlfriend irene and river learns everything she knows from her step mummy. of course rory’s ever present but by god is irene a brilliant saucy influence.
