OMG, there are only three types, man. I am not any of them, ugh, there I go not existing again.
Like a bisexual unicorn. I’m sorry. Thanks to the internet when someone mentions not existing, even in a legit context, my first thought is that they are a bisexual unicorn.
On LJ back in the day, some idiot was referring to trans women as unicorns (you...

Between the BDSM tumblrites whining about how the bottom is obligated to speak up in order to prevent rape, and the people arguing that porn is all good fun and can be reblogged endlessly without further thought, it’s probably a damn good idea to get really hardcore about taking some goddamn…

You Know What Else Has No Place In the Feminist...
feministx:
We are a group of established feminist activists, educators, writers, bloggers and lecturers. We are speaking out as the result of the behaviour and posts coming from some of the online feminist community, which we view as unhealthy for the movement. After some thoughtful consideration, we can no longer be silent.
The recent controversy around Hugo Schwyzer has prompted alarming...
A New Policy Against Self-Harm Blogs
staff:
One of the great things about Tumblr is that people use it for just about every conceivable kind of expression. People being people, though, that means that Tumblr sometimes gets used for things that are just wrong. We are deeply committed to supporting and defending our users’ freedom of speech, but we do draw some limits. As a company, we’ve decided that some specific kinds of content...

The ‘biblical view’ that’s younger than the Happy... →
In 1979, McDonald’s introduced the Happy Meal.
Sometime after that, it was decided that the Bible teaches that human life begins at conception.
Ask any American evangelical, today, what the Bible says about abortion and they will insist that this is what it says. (Many don’t actually believe this, but they know it is the only answer that won’t get them in trouble.) They’ll be a little fuzzy on...
GET THE FUCK OUT: oh godddd, a brief note →
also all political commentary on this blog is the result of temporarily forgetting that this is supposed to be a personal tumblr of music and crappy cellphone pics most of the followers i’ve acquired don’t care about. cuz like i’ve been getting those icky “you have a mythology, time to destroy it” feelings lately and i can’t think of ways of healthily doing that short of deleting.
Girl, you...

sometimes, asking cis-men to be vulnerable and soft and human is…
like watching “thing” from fantastic four turn human.

Welcome, Violent Abusers. We Greet You With Open...
aweepingangel:
This is horrifying. And not too dissimilar from things I hear the girls at work say.
And it’s not just about Chris Brown, there are plenty of other much desired celebrity men who’ve done this and we just ignore it.
No. Ignore is the wrong word. These girls clearly aren’t ignoring what happened. Allow. Accept.
Welcome.
We hate women. I can’t...

Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics: On DC Comics'...
girlinfourcolors:
Yesterday, DC Comics published the results of the Nielsen survey they conducted of comics readers last year:
The launch of DC COMICS-THE NEW 52 galvanized the traditional fan base for superhero comic books: male readers, who were already—or have at one time been—comic book fans.
The survey results are not a reflection of all comic book readers or the broader audience for...

because it means there are people who have noticed that others are exhausted, drained, and exasperated by their presence, and yet they avoid the obvious conclusion in favor of something delightfully insane

I Do Not Accept Your Apology

dreamsofalis:
It came to my attention today that a comment I made a while ago about how the homosexual community has been part of the mainstream for decades has upset some people. For that, and for my lack of explanation, I deeply apologize.
I never meant to compare us to the LGBT community in an offensive way or to compare what we’ve been through to them. What I meant to...
