[disclaimer: offensive (sexist) language up ahead.]
and there’s a new online ‘novel’/meme called ‘settle the fuck down.’ there’s a separate tumblr for it and the description is as follows: “A online novel about Jared Followill, and how us, his fans, want him to settle down with a nice lady. No skanks, no hookers, just a nice woman.” you can imagine the amount of side-eyeing i am doing right now. not only do we have to slut-shame other women jared might be seeing, but we have to basically shame jared, as well, for not settling down and for not being with a “nice” woman. what constitutes a “nice” woman? how much sex does a woman have to have to be considered a “skank” or a “hooker”? what makes a woman none of us know worthy or unworthy of our approval? i’m tired of this shaming nonsense. really, really tired of it. and if anyone sees this, i’m sure this post will get eyerolls and people will say i take things to seriously or i’m uptight or i’m a bitch (because using sexism to dismiss sexism is effective or something), but i don’t care right now. i’m used to people doing that stuff to me anymore.
