Hey, I’m really interested in introducing my younger brother to certain topics and discussions we’ve had here on Tumblr, particularly in regards to feminism and gender. I don’t really confident in writing or explaining it to him by myself (although whenever something does come up, I do try to explain why it’s wrong or oppressive), so if anyone has any kind of simple articles explaining why we need feminism or about gender roles in society that would both be easy and interesting enough for a (very smart and fairly mature, due to the good influence of his two older sisters, no doubt :D) 13-year-old boy, then if you send me some links that would be great. Thanks!

    • #gosh i don't even know what to tag this
    • #just
    • #everything
    • #not just feminism and about like the patriarchy and everything
    • #but pretty much anything explaining anything
    • #stuff that would show him how to be critical of the things he watches and reads and sees
    • #and so he understands that feminism isn't a joke and doesn't turn out all douchey
    • #and so he cares about issues and is relatively informed about things

About

Hi. I'm Lucy. I'm from California but I'm living in England right now. I really like fictional characters. I really, really like them.

I follow way too many people and my posts are numerous and generally boring. Be my friend anyway?

"People populate the darkness; with ghosts, with gods, with electrons, with tales. People imagine, and people believe: and it is that belief, that rock-solid belief, that makes things happen."
-Neil Gaiman, American Gods
