This is realllllllllly weird lmao

This is really NORMAL.
Except we never see it-so it is terrifying and uncomfortable when it happens.
(Mostly because people would laugh or be unkind)

I own a sex shop. Once a woman bled on our chair during an interview. She was horrified and felt ashamed because it was in some way unprofessional. We weren’t bothered. We said ‘what better place to work on being ok with your body than at a feminist sex shop?’
Bleeding is normal and dealing with it is one of the most pervasive ways women are complicit in their silence.

Some men bleed too. How would you react to that? For many men who are Trans the act of bleeding is a security threat.

Fuck off with your lolz.

Reblogging again for above commentary ^^^^^

So happy that the above commentor included trans* men. 

I have to pair this with a couture gown I just saw…

Four WWII Posters That Taught Soldiers to Identify Chemical Weapons by Smell

“These posters, produced by the Medical Training Replacement Center at Camp Barkeley near Abilene, Texas, were meant to teach soldiers about to enter World War II to recognize and treat the effects of chemical weapons…”

Back in the fall, we had a class project on chemical and biological warfare agents and I was late, so my partner, who is not a native English speaker, split up the project based on ‘well, here’s the things I’ve never heard of.’   They were all WWI era gas weapons, so I am all up on my Lewisite and Phosgene.  

Bonus fact: WWI is the only one I really know my history of, because everyone has a favorite war and WWI led to the best post-war art.  FACT.

This is actually how I said it probably happened.

I just laughed myself into space

this is what we’ve been saying for years. im so glad someone drew it so well!!

The first panel caught me because…

…traditional interpretations of ‘the woman at the window’ are often about women’s sexuality.
