Let's be real.
Even in 2018, it's really hard to be a woman. It's tiring, confusing, incredibly frustrating and even scary at times. Throughout History, many powerful women have stood up in the face of injustice to fight for coming generations and yet, women are still degraded and reduced every single day, and this is particularly so for women of colour.
Are you a woman who is just fed up? Never feel like you're enough? Always being questioned and interrogated? Always having to defend yourself?
Well not anymore.
Read this book and you will find yourself closer to embracing your own strength and empowerment.

This blog delves deep into the underlining issues that many women face and it explores why women still have to struggle daily against sexism, patriarchy, rape culture and much more. If you are a woman, I guarantee you will relate to many of the pertinent themes in the chapters. I'd like to share as much of my own experiences and knowledge and aim to open up the mentalities of both women and men to eliminate issues that hinder our lives every single day.

It's Who We Are
People around the world suffer for being born with a sex, for associating with a gender, for having darker skin, for having different beliefs, or for simply loving someone. Is there really nothing we can do other than being persecuted endlessly for who we are? None of us asked for being here, for having curly hair, for being born in the wrong body, for being raised with a different culture. And despite still living, we are mocked, put aside, looked down on, and spat at. Just for being different. Is this what the human race was put on Earth to do? To hate on its own kind? * For a school project I'm writing short stories about different minorities or discriminated people. Each story takes place somewhere in the U.S. even though hate is worldwide. The characters live their daily lives explaining how they make it through the day. I'm trying to show what feelings people have when out in certain situations and bring awareness to my surroundings about people not feeling good in their shoes. I try not to put the blame on certain people and I try to stay away from stereotypes. But of course it isn't always easy. I hope I won't be offending anyone, and if I am please excuse me and explain to me how I could change my texts to make them better. It's kind of sloppy and needs a lot of rewriting but for now this is what I have. !!Please leave !constructive! criticism!, it would really help and I would really appreciate it!!Complete
Matriarchy: No Need For Men.
Chapter 2: World War III (Running!!) Men are gone. Women rule. Imagine a world where men no longer matter-would you survive the matriarchy? What happens when feminism goes too far? This book explores the consequences of a future where the natural balance between men and women collapses. Feminism, having transcended all boundaries, reshapes humanity into a female-centered species. Men, stripped of purpose, exist as relics of the past, serving only as pets in a system that mirrors a hive, where women reign supreme. Biologically, mothers are the gatekeepers of life. Historically, survival forced men and women into partnership-men as protectors and providers, sometimes oppressors, while women adapted to survive under natural pressures. But when humanity masters nature, this necessity vanishes. With no war, famine, or struggle, cooperation dissolves. Robots and AI take over all labor, while science frees women from biological dependence on men, allowing reproduction through stem-cell technology. Men are no longer needed for survival, yet they are not entirely discarded, kept instead as sentimental pets. This is the final form of feminism: a system that abandons equality under the guise of progress, reducing men to a perpetual loop of servitude. Matriarchy: No Need for Men critiques a future where dominance replaces balance, and ideology supersedes the natural truths of human existence. It is a stark warning, not only for men but for all who value the delicate equilibrium that defines humanity.
Trash Book of Extra.
Warning: I am a weirdo. This will contain some thoughts of mine, some poems, some deep shit, some thoughts I have as I go through the journey of self-exploration, lmao. Some chapters may be seen as too controversial but whatever you know. I mean, reading this is your choice. You don't have to. I mean, I'd like you all to read every chapter but it's not a story book so you may skip some chapters you don't like and read the ones that you do like. P.S. I do not deny that my thoughts are somewhat influenced by my environment and experiences. Also, this is the real me. Some people think I'm quiet and cold-hearted but on the inside I'm actually a big softie with feelings. To be honest, it's kinda my fault since I hate revealing my emotions to other people or even asking for help until I have to. And even then, I start hating myself for being such a weakling. That is a major character flaw of mine that I must overcome!Complete
My Opinion on Politics, Race, and Gender Discrimination
My opinion about the 2020 situation put together in a book. While my work is mostly fictional stories, it might come as a surprise that I am very intrigued by politics and controversial topics. 2020 was a hell of a year and I felt too powerfully opinionated that I needed to express myself. Here is my rant backed up by facts about everything that is wrong in the world. If you don't agree with me, I don't want a fight. This is just my opinion and please refrain from contacting me with fiery comments. If you can't contain yourself, you'll have to debate me and emerge un victorious. Its just a book. If you hate it, don't read it. Written by Marti Cover art by ThefrikinpotatoComplete

Love is Overrated
*** WARNING TO WOMEN: This is the book your boyfriend doesn't want you to read! *** If you experience any of the following side-effects please stop reading immediately: eye soreness, uncontrollable sexual stimulation, sexual organ fatigue, or excessive biting and scratching. Consuming even a small dose of Krave "Man Whore Diaries" may result in interdose-withdrawals including but not limited to: maniac depression, uncontrollable rage, and long-term stimulation. Krave has been known to be a "gateway" to consuming massive doses of Erotica. You have been warned! The life of becoming the all popular sex-crazed, man-whore full of debauchery and living a life suited towards individual pleasure is way beyond what you could imagine it to be. I was never the good looking guy who had all the girls in high school. I was the nerdy, quiet kid who spent his nights programming video games and fantasizing about fucking the Prom Queen, however, not actually doing so. I was the one guy that finally bloomed in college. And when it hit, it hit like a storm without even realizing the fact my life was sinking into heavy debt and my education was no longer of value causing me to drop out. My life, until I turned 21, was nothing more than one depressing shit hole filled with disappointment, self-sabotage, loathing, Xbox video games, hot Cheetos and chronic masturbation. This highly sought-after male fantasy of fucking a different woman every night was not only non-existent for my sake but, in my own belief, the only ones lucky enough to experience it is suave Abercrombie model clones sporting six-pack ABS and a perfect set of hair. Right before my 21st birthday, my life as I knew it changed. The things I learned and most importantly, the secrets I discovered showed me a world of possibility. An unbelievable existence filled with fucking, partying, and eternal happiness.Complete
