“Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:18, NIV.

Are you giving thanks in every circumstance? This might seem like a stretch at first, especially when you are going through a season of difficulty. But notice today’s verse doesn’t say to give thanks “for” everything, it says give thanks “in” everything. In other words, no matter what’s going on, find something to be thankful for. Don’t just focus on what’s wrong in your life; focus on what God will do in your life.

When you are thankful, it opens the door for God to move on your behalf. That’s why it says “this is God’s will for you.” He wants you to be close to Him to receive His strength and power by giving thanks. That’s why we should always have the attitude that says, “God, in spite of what’s happened, I choose to be grateful. I may be sick, but Father, thank You for being my healer. Thank you for giving me great friends and family.” Or, “I may be struggling in my marriage, but God, thank You for being my restorer. Thank You for giving me another sunrise.” As you give thanks in everything, you will see God’s hand move mightily on your behalf, and you’ll come out of that difficulty better, stronger and wiser than before.

I actually really want this shirt. 

Not only do I like the design and the portion of Proverbs 31 chosen here, but I feel like wearing this shirt would remind the woman that she does have strength dignity and no fear of the future because she is so secure in our Lord’s love. 

Ballin’ shirt.

Anyone need a place to live in North County, SD starting in June?

I need a roommate! I’d love love love to live with another Christian woman who’s cool with my two cats and wants to walk out her faith too. :)

RAGE. god dammit.

These guys go up to girls they don’t know, begin touching them in a really intimate manner without the girls’ permission, from behind (which, as many girls in the video point out, means they can’t see who is touching them), and then try to get the girls’ numbers.  Most of the girls are visibly scared when first touched by the guys, gasping or saying “oh my god.”  One guy even straddles a girl (1:39).  The guys don’t ever ask if they can have the girls’ numbers, but say things like “so, I’m going to get your number.”  You can also see some of the girls visibly do not want to give their numbers and hesitate (1:18), but do so anyways.  The girls who do ask them to stop say things in timid voices like, “Do you mind stopping? Thank you” (2:24).  Thank you.

At the end, as the finale to all these “funny” clips, they show a clip of a girl who is very freaked out by the guy.  So much so, that she calls over two random guys to help her because she doesn’t know what to do (3:01).  Note she says sorry to the guy (3:10).  This guy touches her inappropriately without her permission, she has enough sense to do something about it, and then apologizes to the guy after she does nothing wrong.

Hil-fucking-arious.

(THEIR ENTIRE CHANNEL IS THIS.  If you don’t see what’s wrong with this video, maybe this clip of one of them grabbing a girls boobs will change your mind.  From what I can gather, these videos of them sexually harassing women has actually earned them mild success. ASDFGHJK)

Petition to shut down this entire channel and charge these people with harassment  How come you cant charge someone with Bullying? Fuck i would LOVE it if someone pulled this shit with me. I would lose it. We should spread awareness to women that this is going on. Ladies, if you find yourself in this situation, dont stand for it. Tell these fucks how its not funny to fuck with someones emotions like that. I wonder how they would feel if someone did this to their moms, or sisters, or daughters, or wives. If we can take at least of these guys to court, maybe we can shut it down. 

WHOA HEY OK YOU MAY THINK THIS IS FUNNY OR CLEVER BUT NO THIS IS FUCKED UP I WOULD PROBABLY CRY IF A RANDOM GUY STARTED MASSAGING MY SHOULDERS AND DEMANDED MY PHONE NUMBER THESE GIRLS MAY BE LAUGHING BUT YOU CAN TELL THEY ARE NERVOUS AND FREAKED OUT WHAT THE FUCK FUCK THESE GUYS GET THIS CHANNEL DOWN

if you fucking touch me and i don’t know you prepare to be taken down. i’ve taken enough self defense courses to make sure you don’t try it again.

If you touch me without my permission, I will use anything on hand to make sure you never forget why this is not ok, even if it means using my nails.

Nice try at becoming a youtube sensation

Now please go find real jobs that do not involve touching women (or anyone) without their permission. Perhaps something along the lines of grabbing your penis and shoving it firmly into your own ass.

If this happened to me, I’d tell them to stop touching me before I punch them.

All of the women looked uncomfortable, like they didn’t know if they COULD turn the guys down.

FUCK this video and that channel. Good job on those guys at 3:06 for stopping and telling him to go away. That’s exactly what any passerby should do when they see someone being put into an uncomfortable situation. 

So I agree that this is unacceptable… however I think there’s a problem with the fact that the girl’s are not asking them to stop. NO, a random guy should not come up and touch a woman like that and expect it to be okay. But, dang. If these girls were as upset about it as the tumblr community is, why didn’t they ask them to go away? 

Videos are sketchy things, because we don’t know how many people they did this to that didn’t make it into the film. 

I almost don’t want to weigh in on this conversation because it will just encourage more people to watch the video which will get the guys more hits, etc, etc. 

But seriously, there is a place for women to demand respect. Why should a guy respect me if I won’t make him/ASK him to do so? If I don’t have enough respect for myself to speak up when a random stranger is touching me, can I rationally expect that random stranger to have enough respect for me not to? It would be nice if the world was full of gentlemen who have no greater desire than to open the door for me, but that’s not reality. It would be nice if there were no creepy people in the world, but that’s not reality. These guys are not the depiction of your standard human male (though the 18-24 american college male might have a higher percentage than most demographics). Every society and every generation has had their share of creeps. It’s up to the rest of us to say NO. That starts with the women who they are bothering. And if we can’t do it ourselves, or in GROUPS of friends, we can at least ask someone else to weigh in and help us, like the girl at the end of the video. 

Please, ladies. I know the world is scary sometimes, but stand up for yourselves and help other women stand up for themselves. It is much more effective than demanding that another person not infringe on our space. Sucks that we should need to, but we will get further in having real freedom if we start helping each other stand up for ourselves with respect.

this is what heterophobia would look like if it was real. if you believe that heterophobia is a real thing that exists, please watch this because you will see that it simply doesn’t exist, that it never has and never will. 

tbh I think everyone should watch this anyway because it’s very clever and very powerful

oh my god……

I’m actually crying right now..

It hurt me so much watching this

That was powerful….

Wow..

Oh geez. This was like having my heart ripped out and smeared all over the concrete. I don’t understand hatred. It is just… so alien. 

This is worth everyone watching, no matter what your political/religious/personal views are. This is human.

Dove hired a forensic artist to draw how women see themselves versus how others see them - the results are moving.

Kind of a big deal. Really cool project. Just listen to the different adjectives the strangers use! “Nice eyes, lit up when she smiled” etc.

Model poses and the finished paintings of Gil Elvgren

Its not just a model, it’s his wife. She posed for every single one of his paintings.

What my brain did immediately…

“Oh, so they’ve ALWAYS photoshopped pin-ups, it’s always been fakery!” 
Comparing the size and shape of the lovely lady on the left with the paintings on the right.

And then I read about it being his wife, and I had another twist on it. Maybe the paintings are how he sees her, because he loves the heck out of this woman and his perception is of her beauty. 

THoughts.
