So within two days of each other, Fox News writes an article comparing aromanticism and asexuality to pedophilia, and then Matt Walsh releases a video saying asexuality is a mental illness and asexuals are tricking teenagers into having depression.
Not sure what’s going on right now over in Conservative World, but it’s a hell of wild U-turn for them to suddenly switch from “Oh no! The left is sexualizing our children!” to “Oh no! The left is asexualizing our children!”
this speaking as a cis person. Nothing brings me more joy seeing people find gender euphoria in becoming a mediocre representation of humanity. And I mean that so genuinely. Local boy finds joy and fulfillment wearing a cargo shorts and t-shirt combo. Local girl has transitioned to look like someone's disheveled aunt, has never been happier. Local person experiences gender euphoria rocking the world's worst bowl-cut. Without a scap of irony, this shit makes me see the wonder and whimsy in just, being a human. An average, person going through their day-to-day, is a wondrous thing? That's amazing. And heteronormativity has stripped these experiences of their joy. Like you're right, wearing a basic girlypop skirt should make my heart sing. Why not? Why are these expressions lesser because they're normal? All this to say. Shoutout to all the basic bitches out there. Yes that polo shirt does make you look like a divorced golfer dad. Yes, that too is kind of a slay, now that I think of it.
This is the worst timeline. (x)
Radfems and terfs will get so incredibly weird when you talk about trans people. I have had a radfem get very angry about me saying I support trans women and start talking to me about trans women in prison raping other prisoners, like that’s an insane leap. We weren’t even talking about prisons at all. And first of all, that’s a bad thing to happen, everyone can agree. Rape is horrific under any possible circumstance. And I haven’t done any research on that exact topic, I am not an expert, I don’t know of any specific examples but that doesn’t actually matter. Gender isn’t a factor in the level of ‘badness’ of assault, it’s equally bad. This hypothetical rapist trans woman or even real rapist trans women has literally nothing to do with the validity of all trans women. Rapists in prison shouldn’t be allowed to be in situations where they can rape anyone. The prison system is flawed! I don’t have a solution! I am a random person with opinions! My opinion is very simple, rape is evil, rapists should be kept away from victims. And that opinion has nothing at all to do with my opinion that trans women are women.
This is not a well formulated thoughtfully crafted post, this is an annoyed rambling mess.
what ppl defending kids on ipads don’t seem to understand is that there are other ways to keep kids occupied. my mom had a whole bag full of little toys and games for me to play with while waiting in lines at disney world. once your kid is like 7 or 8 they can read a book. they can color. or they can literally just sit there and imagine things. i did that a lot as a kid.
"the best way to screw jkr over is by making her characters queer!" actually. The best way to screw jkr over is to stop engaging with the property she still profits off of and read a different fucking book
Actually feminists want you to shut the fuck up about how much you hate men and males. Yeah we voted. We decided it's actually super uncool to hate half of humanity due to something beyond their control.
Being lgbtqia does not automatically make you queer. Not being cishet doesn’t automatically make you queer. Queer is who you are, what you do, what you believe in, how you act. Queerness is lived.
me: hey so uhhhh if being a woman must be experienced one certain way then how do you factor in women of colour or women from other countries into that?
radfem i have the displeasure of speaking to: shut up i'm not even going to reply to that go read a feminist book
Feel free to ignore. This is my “old man yells at cloud” blog, so, let’s see where this shit goes.Qualifications aka basic biographical info: I’m a white queer adult in America and nothing else is any of your business
