Catherine Earnshaw Is Perhaps One Of The Most Original Female Characters In Classic Literature. She Is

Catherine Earnshaw is perhaps one of the most original female characters in classic literature. She is neither moral nor sexual, she is monstrous without being two-faced or deceptive. She is completely beyond and above the confines of any archetypes of female characters.

immensely eye opening words. EVERYONE CAN BE AN ABUSER.

Dear teen girls,

Stop abusing your boyfriends and yes what you are doing is abuse.

Stop:

Yelling at him in front of his friends 

Hitting or slapping him when he does or says something you don’t like

Telling him he doesn’t have a choice when it comes to decisions that involve both of you 

Telling him he can’t hang out with friends because you don’t like him

Telling him to not talk to other girls even if they are his friend

Forcing him to spend every moment with you 

Belittling him and pointing out all his flaws

Calling him stupid or making fun of him for making a mistake

Threatening to break up with him if he doesn’t do what you want

Being emotionally manipulative and crying until he does what you want

Accusing him of cheating every time he’s not with you

Blow up is phone if he doesn’t text you every five minutes 

Telling him you are the must thing that has ever happened to him and no one else will love

Physically attacking him when ever you are mad

Forcing him to have sex despite that fact that he said he didn’t want to

Invading his privacy by going through his phone

Getting mad at him for changing his password and demanding he tell you what it is

If a guy did any of these things to a girl it would be considered abuse but since its the other way around its considered normal. Throughout High school I saw many girl treating their boyfriends like shit. Sometime even physically abusing them in the hallways and no one trying to stop it because its a girl attacking a boy. 

Boys: If your girlfriend does anything on this list leave her. It is abuse and you deserve better.

Girls: if you find your self doing anything on this list to your boyfriend you need to knock it off because you are being abusive. 

ok so, emma woodhouse refuses to marry because it would mean her father would be alone. she wanted to care for him, she was a daddy’s girl.

she wasn’t like isabella, who didn’t mind experiencing and making a life away from highbury.

but i don’t think she NEVER wanted to marry. i’m sure she does. it’s all women could really talk about and depend on for their future.

but she insists on taking care of her ageing father.

so, to feed her natural emotional and romantic parts of herself, she starts to meddle in other people’s lives. a human matchmaker. making marriage predictions and setting harriet up knowing she’s a natural daughter - needing help.

she’s always doing things for other people. even if she’s not always right, and too meddling. she’s got her heart in the right place.

and mr knightley comes along and shows her, she doesn’t have to give up love to be who she really is, a confident girl with a heart of gold, always giving her time and attention to the people she feels most need it. he proves to her that she too can have a happy ending

the fact that jesper’s bullet was able to help mal escape those handcuffs is like...gahhh. so detailed i’m actually gonna cry

we need a gender neutral version of “fangirl” or “fanboy”. or is there already one and i haven’t found it yet
