as a middle schooler i can say that all the casual misogyny that freely exists on the internet (and just society in general) is 100% affecting young men. literally 5 years ago in my grade girls and boys were barely seperated/treated differently by their peers, but once they gained access to the internet (their first taste of unfiltered society), they turn into sexist assholes who barely view women as other humans.
I just discovered your blog & I love it! c: (I have a Christian/folky witch blog called rafaela-a-bruxa). Admittedly, I recently been struggling w/ my faith in the context of LGBTQIA+ (I am an ally & fully support LGBTQIA+ rights. But all the Christians around me & church are against it (unfortunately I'm surrounded by evangelicalism too..which sucks even more). As a gay Christian, can I ask how you blend both your faith and identity? (Feel free to message me if you wish).
Apologies for being late in getting to this ask but hiiii
I’ve put a few posts up re: clobber passages and how I resolve scriptural tensions if that’s what you mean (just look up “clobber passages”, “Leviticus” or “Romans” and they should pop up)
As for a more regular living sense, I kinda just have found a place where both flow very naturally from the same place for me. God is Love, and has called me to love in a particular way. God does not embody gender in a human way, and has called me into proximity with him by calling me in a similar way. I view my queerness as a vocation to which I am called the same as any other vocation—something I am honored to live and participate in and celebrate, despite hardships which may come my way or communal responses to it. It’s definitely hard when you don’t have people around you who understand, which is why I encourage seeking out community wherever possible, including across traditions and demographics, but I also hold that my queerness is spiritual and part of me and thus I am able to honor it faithfully even if it’s just me on my own thanking God for the fact that I was made a lesbian and am capable of loving others in a lesbian way (romantically, yes, as with my wonderful girlfriend, but also in the sense that being queer transforms your relationship with all forms of love including platonic).

Dear loved ones,
Do not listen when they tell you you cannot be gay and believe in God. Choose one, they say.
This is a blatant lie. You can be both. In his wise ways, God created you perfect in his eyes. Be gay, pray with a glad heart and thank Him for this blessing and gift. To love is a freedom given to you to receive joy and happiness in this world. You are blessed more than you know and God loves you just as you are. For He is The God of Love. You are precious and destined for good things and for a good world to come.
Ignore the imperfect writings of ancient men and listen to your heart and reason - love is the way.
Love yourself and love God. Be free from choosing and condemnation.
Lots of love,

Mild pet peeve I feel like no one talks about but should talk about more: Headbands on baby girls. They look uncomfortable, they’re impractical and I hate how even from birth baby girls being cute is prioritized over their comfort.
