I’m not really sure where the line between “actually having sex with teenagers” and “being sexually attracted to teenagers” went, because having sex with teenagers is not okay 99,9999%, regardless if it’s natural to be attracted to them or not.

To be quite honest, I don’t give a shit about age, but most adults have a position of power and responsibility over teenagers and abusing that power is nowhere near acceptable.

100% agreed. People seem to be confused about the difference between sexual attraction and wanting to have sex with someone. It’s possible to find someone attractive without wanting to have sex with them. I know a lot of people have a hard time wrapping their heads around that one, but it’s true.

Teddy Roosevelt’s diary entry from the day his wife died. He never spoke of her death again.

This is so sad. This is the only place that he felt free to express his pain, and probably nobody ever saw it until after he died himself.

What ‘multiculturalism’ boils down to is that you can praise any culture in the world except Western culture - and you cannot blame any culture in the world except Western culture.

Thomas Sowell (via opinionatedwiley)

Multiculturalism is segregation with a smiley face.

“GEEZ BRONIES ARE ALLOWED TO POST THINGS ABOUT PONIES WHEREVER THEY WANT THIS IS ‘MURICA!”

No..This is obnoxious. Stop.

This little habit has got to be the most annoying thing ever. There are people who do NOTHING ELSE except insert ponies into threads where they don’t belong. STOP IT BRONIES, THIS JUST MAKES PEOPLE HATE YOU.

Being a woman is awesome and i have absolutely no complaints, even if there are a few things here or there that men have an advantage with, I could care less because i have certain advantages, as a woman, as well! I have just as much of an opportunity to make it in this world as any man, When i hear people complaining about how badly we are oppressed here (USA) i just think it’s so silly because you’re only victimizing yourself. The only people in my life who have ever said anything about me being less-able because of my gender are, ironically enough, these “feminists” on tumblr. Get a grip! Enjoy your life and take advantage of your available opportunities my fellow females, Hard work and dedication can overcome anything. 

Empathy isn’t just something that expands your moral universe. Empathy is something that can make you a more creative thinker, improve your relationships, can create the human bonds that make life worth living. But, more than that, empathy is also about social change — radical social change.

Philosopher Roman Krznaric on empathy and social change (via explore-blog)

Empathy is such a rare quality in a human being. I think a lot of people can’t bear to be empathetic because it requires one to face up to the unlimited sorrow of the world. Until one has experienced the potential pain and sorrow inherent in living, one can’t really appreciate the soaring joys and sublime beauty that’s inherent in living too. The sharp edge of pain makes the softened taste of beauty so much more sweet.

Today is the anniversary of Rosa Parks’ refusal to sit in the back of the bus in Montgomery, Ala. And this photograph of President Obama sitting on that exact same bus 57 years later is a poignant reminder of just how much America has changed in half a century. The image was taken at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Mich., where the humble 36-seat General Motors bus is on display. Like this simple picture of the president, the bus is an ordinary thing that represents extraordinary progress.

It also represents how far we still have to go before we reach true social equity. What we have now is forced, partial equity. There is always someone looking for a loophole, there are always those who pay lip service to social equity but don’t feel it in their hearts. True social equity would eliminate and abolish this hesitation and rules-lawyering. The day that every white supremacy group dissolves due to lack of interest is the day that social equity will have been achieved.
