“When that woman stood up and said, “No, rape is not funny,” she did not consent to participating in a culture that encourages lax attitudes toward sexual violence and the concerns of women”
YES! YES!!! THIS ESSAY IS GETTING ME PISSED OFF! IM SHAKING MY HEAD AND FURROWING MY BROW AND BITING MY LIP! THIS IS WHAT I WANT! BLATANT FEMALE ANGER! GIMME MORE GIMME MORE!

I’m struggling to get through some of these essays. A lot of them feel more like personal stories and opinions that I’m not completely interested in. The essay, ‘The Careless Language of Sexual Violence’ has been the first essay I’ve read in this book that stuck out to me. Not only is it a poignant essay, it kept my attention and made me angry! Which is what I love in feminist books. I love to angry read.
