NO WONDER MOMMY HAS TO MARCH
I WAS PRAYING SOMEONE WOULD ADD ANTI-SUFFRAGETTE CARTOONS TO THIS
honestly sexists can’t even come up with new arguments
The interesting thing about this “well that switches our positions!” is that it totally admits that what women experience is oppression

FUCK
What about cracking open a cold milkshake
As we all know, the milkshake brings the boys to the yard. The presence of the boys is a prerequisite for the cracking open of a cold one, but cold ones do not have any inherent boy-attracting abilities. Milkshakes, however, do. All else being equal, the boys would proceed to the milkshake yard. While it is possible to announce the presence of cold ones in the hope of attracting some boys, the pull of the milkshake is much more powerful by comparison.
mind you, all of this nonsense hinges on whether or not the boys are back in town
People think it’s funny to comment on the difference in Ron and Hermione’s job positions.
“What did you do to convince the smartest witch of the age to marry you” they’d say to Ron as he worked behind the counter at Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes.
“How do you put up with someone who can’t possibly keep up with your intellect?” awed colleagues would say to Hermione as they left a heated debate at the Wizengomot.
Ron would blush and say “I don’t have a clue, mate,” and mean it.
Hermione would redden in fury and demand if her colleagues knew anyone else who could beat Minerva McGonagall at age 11 or the last time they’d destroyed a horcrux or why a joke shop was able to stand up to the Darkest Wizard of all time when the entire Ministry of Magic crumbled like a house of cards.
Neither of them would say anything about these conversations when they got home. Instead, Hermione would talk through her latest ideas for the new House Elf Protection act while Ron made dinner. Ron would ask for advice on the latest product he and George were developing, and they’d both roll their eyes over the latest Rita Skeeter article claiming that one or both of them was having an affair with Harry.
At first, when Ron’s job change came out in fandom, I was sad that I was losing badass Auror Ron. Now, I love it so much more that he runs the shop with George. I love that his wit and humor are his living. I love that he doesn’t have to prove anything to himself or to Hermione, anymore… not that he ever had to prove anything to her to begin with, but his insecurities and jealousies made him think he did. It honestly solidifies his relationship with her that much more to me. And it makes him a stronger, more confident person to be satisfied with doing something he loves, with family, rather than aligning with Harry’s path out of obligation or even loyalty, to a degree.
It’s beautiful and perfect and I love him.
