Because Marriage is Greater Than “Just a Piece of Paper”

Marriage is so much more than "just a piece of paper." But that piece of paper, the marriage license, and the rights it confers, is why marriage equality is so important.

“Marriage is just a piece of paper.” How many times have you heard that statement? I know I’ve heard it a few times in pop culture, but luckily most of my friends and family disagree with the sentiment. I knew I wanted to marry Dan very early in our relationship. It was still a decision… [Read More]

Feminism 101: Rape Culture

Rape culture is a problem in America. But before we can address it, we need to know exactly what it is. This post explains what is and is NOT rape culture, examples of rape culture, and what we can do about it.

TW: gendered and homophobic slurs, discussion of sexual assault/rape There is seriously SO much confusion about what is (and is not) rape culture.

5 Reasons Republicans Should Vote Libertarian

Disappointed with Republican politicians? Vote libertarian instead! #politics

5 Reasons Democrats Should Vote Libertarian

Democrats and libertarians share many ideals, like these five points.

A few weeks ago I wrote the most politically-neutral post I will possibly ever write. And it still leaned feminist libertarian, because that’s how I roll. Today, however, and next week, I appeal to Democrats and to Republicans to think outside the two-party system.
