thank gawd. i can breath better knowing you’re where you belong. since dc wasn’t enough proof, maybe now you’ll know to just stop leaving?

Wow. That was sincerely heartwarming.

Don’t worry. I’ve learned my lesson.

really? just men?

Yes, JUST MEN

Well, hoesntly I have never seen a female construction worker. Not saying they don’t exist, I just have never seen one.

At the same time, what should they write? They don’t really have room for “Men and Women working” or “People working”

I have seen many female construction workers in my life. Certainly not as many women as men, but still. Also, I think PEOPLE WORKING would fit if they put the words closer together. Regardless, “ROAD WORK AHEAD” would suffice. Why even introduce gender?

This is exactly my point. Why does gender need to be introduced? It isn’t necessary.

But why is it offensive? I understand feminism, I agree with the sensible ideals it holds. However, this is really stretching it. This is something that really has no political statement. There was no harm meant in introducing any idea of gender on the sign. There’s no sense of superiority implied besides the fact that it’s a word. It’s fairly safe to say that no one, upon seeing this sign, subconsciously thinks that men are better/greater/more able to do this job.

There are much better battles to fight, especially with women’s rights. I understand that every issue matters, but this is too radical. If you intend on really finding this offensive, find the 9.6% of women workers in the construction business, and ask them their feelings after stating yours. After all, they’re the one’s that, out of everyone, should take offense to a “MEN WORKING” sign.

If it said “WOMEN WORKING” people would think that was strange.

Posting these images, and others like it, reminds people that the world we live in uses men as the norm, and women as a deviance from that. That is unacceptable to me, and to many women.

This is not “too radical.” This is the underlying story behind every woman’s fight for equality.

I wish Amy Lula and I were actually in love. It’d be so nice. I wouldn’t text her at all but I would take her records but I would always give them back.

[that song was real nice]

I’m re-posting this because, over the past week, my tumblr feed has definitely been more negative-heavy. I’m reading too much hatin’ and too much whinin’ and too much finger pointin’. So, instead, click this link. It applies to all of you.

After you click it, go outside and make a small pyramid out of rocks. Then buy a box of Dots and jam them all in your mouth and enjoy how hard it is to chew them. Then go rake the leaves in your yard and maybe even your neighbor’s yard (someone did this for me today!).

this is from my friend bc. he knows how to do things the right way. even if you’re in the downers, living nightmares, stuck in some dank cube all day… there’s too much good out there to completely ignore. keep it posi and keep up the good work.

for rachel, and the rest of you, too.
