In peace, may you leave the shore. In love, may you find the next. Safe passage in your travels, until our final journey to the ground. May we meet again.
but to be very blunt and very serious - it really is disturbing how you can look at fashion magazine spreads, teen magazine spreads and other media depicting teen girl trends/fashion and see how girls dressed in the 90′s, early - mid 2000′s compared to now.
i mean 1998 - 1999
2002
2003
jump ahead to 2008
vs depictions of teenagers in media / teen fashion and teen trends of the last few years (2015-2018)
and people always say “if you look at teenage girls and see sexualization, then you’re the pervert” but .. i just don’t get that line of reasoning. how can you be so naive to look at how media, modeling companies, clothing companies, etc are treating teenage girls ( some of which aren’t even teenagers - but as young as 10,11, 12 years old ) and say “nope, nothing to see here :) but if you call out the problem then YOU’RE the creep” instead of acknowledging that aforementioned companies are blatantly and intentionally producing clothing that is more and more revealing, less and less age appropriate, portraying girls in more sexualized ways as years go on, peddling these themes through social media, televised media, advertising, etc. i mean, that’s the same line of reasoning of “if you look at this picture of barack and michelle obama depicted as monkeys as being racist -then you’re actually the racist one for thinking that black people are monkeys!” when the artist of the photo is the one who blatantly and obviously was being racist.
Lol have you seen Instagram?

I’ve personally known girls (underage) who actually post what would considered child porn (partially or near fully nude/provocative poses) pictures of themselves while hoards of “feminists”, minor AND adult, cheered them on. I’ve watched the same girls continue to post sexually suggestive photos while their peers/fans encouraged them and adult men made sexually explicit comments under the pictures. I usually cant tell the difference between teen and adult women anymore, especially on Instagram. And it keeps getting worse. Attention, sex appeal, a huge following and validation is everything right now. That’s all that matters and if you dare call out what’s wrong with how teenage girls are being advertised as sex objects, you’re degrading and “slut shaming” them. I just want kids to be able to be kids and seeing my 13 year old cousin snap chatting her full face of makeup is disturbing enough
when i say pedophile culture this is exactly what im referring to, its sick and twisted. theyre children that look like adults and under no circumstance should that be okay. i have so much fear for this generation of girls and im scared sick of how its going to just keep getting worse.
What bothers me the most is young girls can no longer have an awkward phase. As soon as they become aware of fashion trends and the media, the immediately start copying these behaviors and become what they see. There isn’t a time to truly figure out who they are. Maybe it’s because of the internet culture, advertising, lack of patrental guidance or a combination of all three.
The fact is young girls (and boys to a certain extent) have a shorter childhood now.
one of my favourite headcanons of the fandom is the one where Shepard just casually owns an unholy amount of N7-merch. Hoodies, shirts, tank tops, bras, binders, pasties, underwear, socks, leggings, sleep wear, Shepard has it all
Please help out a nonbinary disabled lesbian, y’all.
I just lost my job and my wife and I are super broke until he starts his new job. We need $250 by 01/21/2019 to pay rent and buy groceries and my medications.
We’ve had many amazing people help us so far and I feel selfish but we still need more help.
Not to mention I’m way behind on other bills and I’m having awful anxiety over it. Lmao
My venmo is @Morgan-McClain-7. My wife’s Venmo is @acarpenter02. My wife’s PayPal is carpenteralex08@gmail.com. Anything you can spare would be greatly appreciated.
Even if you can just reblog or send some words of encouragement— it means the world to me.
Everybody’s transition is different. Some changes might feel like they’re overnight and some might feel like they’ll never happen. Changes occur at different rates, that’s normal and okay! I didn’t expect my period to stop happening for at least 3 months after I started testosterone; one month in I got a very light period and that was the last time it ever happened. I thought my voice would start cracking within a month of starting, but it didn’t start until about 4 months after. I’m only just now developing facial hair, and some guys get it almost immediately.
Everybody is different. You shouldn’t compare yourself to other people because your body is unique in so many ways. Give your body time and respect.
If you’re worried your transition is happening too slow or not at all, take videos and/or pictures! People tend not to notice slow changes with their own body, and making records can help with that.
And if you aren’t on HRT yet ~ don’t worry! Some day you will be, and it’ll absolutely be worth the wait.
do you ever think about the impact “this bitch empty” girl?? Like she created a whole new verb that has a very specific meaning but pretty much all millennial and gen zs understand it. do you think she knows the scale of what she’s done??? because honestly what a legend
