I’m helping out a fellow Finnish artist who had a very unfortunate thing happen to her. A design shop called the Arctic Design Shop in Rovaniemi Finland sold her thesis work by accident and she needs it back!
The work was sold to an American girl who can have the sculpture back right after the maker has finished her thesis! She only needs it for the exhibition. The maker has asked if the shop has the buyers information but they don’t.
Please spread this and contact the email if you have any information about the whereabouts of the statue!
“Witch” is and will continue to be a gender neutral term.
Keep reblogging this- it’s helping gender nonconforming and male witches feel accepted in the community.
Witch is for girls…
Nope! Witch is gender neutral.
Uhm were you dropped a birth? It’s for girls.
Nope! Witch is a gender neutral term. Has been more most of the English language’s history too.
The Modern English “Witch” of course comes from the Middle English “Wicche.” The Middle English “Wicche” was, of course, a gender neutral version of the Old Englsh “Wicce” and “Wicca” – which were gendered. “Wicce” being the feminine form, and “Wicca” being the masculine.
You may recognize the masculine Old English word as it lends itself (albeit with a different pronunciation) to the most common form of modern day Witchcraft – the religion Wicca.
Outside of the Modern Witchcraft Movement, if we poke into history you’ll find that during the European Witch Trials men were tried as – you guessed it – Witches. While those trials did disproportionately women, that was mostly because of, well, western culture just hating women in general. Many men were also accused though, and when they were, they were called Witches.
So, y’know, it’s gender neutral.
(If you want to know how it ended up having pop culture gendered connotations in modern history, you can blame some shitty 19th century fiction writers)
Anyone with a brain knows Witch is for girls. Wizard or warlock is for men
Nope!
A practitioner of Witchcraft is a Witch regardless of gender.
Wizard actually originally meant philosopher, has a completely different etymology, and didn’t come to refer to a “magic user” until the 1550s – long after the word Witch was in common usage. It also is found primarily in fiction.
Warlock is a word meaning “oath breaker” (specifically breaking an oath to Jesus Christ) and didn’t start getting used for “Male Witches” until 19th century fiction. That fiction eventually entered the pop cultural consciousness – but those practicing Witchcraft have almost never actually used that word (save for a few who have decided to “reclaim” what they consider a slur).
Witch is gender neutral.
Giles Corey didn’t get crushed to death for this kind of discourse.
Especially when one party is a creepy ass “age play” blog.
“witch is for girls”

Sorry, witch is a gender neutral term and you can die mad about it.
