Sisters before Misters! We got your Galentine’s Day cards right here

Women, beware! Compulsory heterosexuality day is upon us. Your Grandma’s suspicious questions about why your hair is so short and why you don’t have a boyfriend may become more pressing. Your current man-partner may propose to gain ownership of you for life. The world around you will impress upon you the idea that hetero couplings are the most important thing and that you are incomplete without romance!

Yep, it’s Valentine’s Day: the time of year when patriarchy pretends that the massive amount of unpaid domestic, reproductive, and emotional labour women do is all justified because loooove.

Fuck that! We’re celebrating Galentine’s Day! Here’s an excuse to tell a sister how much she means to you — download any or all of these feminist Galentine’s Day cards to share with the women you love. Sisters before Misters 4 lyfe.
