J’s Quotes

“They show no regard for their partners’ intimate lives and discard them immediately afterwards.”

“She isn’t special: she’s a normal woman who has just enough emotional insight to recognise that hook-up culture isn’t good for her but is lacking the political insight to recognise the existence of a bigger problem.”
― Louise Perry, The Case Against the Sexual Revolution: A New Guide to Sex in the 21st Century

“Being eaten by a bugbear makes me uncomfortable, Carl. So if your boyfriend ogling your tootises keeps these easy-peasy bugs coming at us instead of more of those lava-spitting llamas, then you better buck up, get over your human male privilege, and take one for your princess.”
― Matt Dinniman, Dungeon Crawler Carl
