Twenty-something, Female, Aries. I post things that I find inspiring or beautiful. Things that are cute or funny. Basically if it interests me, I'll post it. ETA: Lately I've been drawn into posting fandom related pic spams and rambles. This is keeping me sane, so I think this blog has inevitably become a mashup of what goes on in my brain. I apologize profusely for this. ;) ETA 2.0: I now have a fandom blog for my current K-Pop obsessions. (AKA Super Junior...) If you're interested check it out here. kissmeinsane (at) gmail (dot) com |

❝And yet does it not all come again to the fact that it is a man’s world? For if a man chooses to be promiscuous, he may still aesthetically turn up his nose at promiscuity. He may still demand a woman be faithful to him, to save him from his own lust. But women have lust, too. Why should they be relegated to the position of custodian of emotions, watcher of the infants, feeder of soul, body, and pride of man? Being born a woman is my awful tragedy. From the moment I was conceived I was doomed to spout breasts and ovaries rather than penis and scrotum; to have my whole circle of action, thought and feeling rigidly circumscribed by my inescapable femininity. Yes, my consuming desire to mingle with road crews, sailors and soldiers, bar room regulars - to be a part of a scene, anonomous, listening, recording - all is spoiled by the fact that I am a girl, a female always in danger of assault and battery. My consuming interest in men and their lives is often misconstrued as a desire to seduce them, or as an invitation to intimacy. Yet, God, I want to talk to everybody I can as deeply as I can. I want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night…❞ The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath (via redwagon)(via jumbleofnotes) tags: sylvia plath 6 months ago | 1429 notes
