Last week I flew to California. A middle-aged lesbian couple disembarked ahead of me. Looking at them, I suddenly realized we were dressed exactly alike—tee shirt, Patagonia fleece, baggy Levi’s, Merrill slip ons with a backpack (complete with carabiners) and a ball…

there are no words

“I don’t mind when gay people use it, but when straight people use it I wanna sock ‘em.

Same if they “lovingly” refer to like, their yaoi OCs as “my faggy fag XDDD” and shit. I don’t care if you think you’re being funny or facetious, you’re straight kids saying slurs.”

 

….this is literally the stupidest. I really don’t understand why it’s ok for a specific group of people to use a COMMON TERM but not another group. Like, for instance, PoC who use the term “Nigga” when talking to friends. A white person goes and says that to a friend MEANING IT IN A FRIENDLY TERM and people get all mad. But it’s okay for PoC to say it? That’s stupid. If one group can say it, I don’t see why they have to go all special snowflake and another group of people can’t use it. Can someone explain this, because clearly I’m not understanding?

i’m really sorry but i 

really find it hard to care about a few nasty anons in straight people’s askboxes when gay people are actually being murdered for being gay

it will never ever compare to what it’s like actually being gay

seriously just

i’m sorry in the grand scheme of things i don’t care

thats like saying “im sorry i cant really care about starving people in america because in africa people are actually dying from starvation” lmao fuck you both are bad and neither should be happening i understand that the latter is a more pressing issue but do you realize that both things are awful

no it really isnt anything like that

“Rejecting femininity is seen as a cool and radical thing to do. Femme-ness is consequently labeled conformist and unimportant. According to this logic, femmes are eye candy, but we don’t really have anything interesting to say. In case there was any doubt about this, let me clarify: just because I wear makeup and heels does not mean I’m brainless, unaware of my actions, and unwittingly conforming to patriarchal expectations. I have not failed to deconstruct my internalized whatever-the-fuck. I am not waiting for you, oh great masculine-of-center queer person to save me by showing me the error of my ways.”

“I totally support femmes—they’re so hot”: Terrible Opening Line from my other blog, Adventures through Heteronormativity.  Discussing (among many other issues) femmephobia and why femininity is ridiculed while masculinity is considered powerful and praiseworthy. (via corrupter-of-words)

fucking thank you

(via shatterstag)

uh. if you’re female, rejecting stereotypical femininity is a pretty damn radical thing. i don’t know about the ~queer community~ because i like to stay as far away from it as possible with its focus on dick, but none of the butch lesbians i know feel people who enjoy dressing up are unimportant and brainless. i do, however, know butch lesbians (myself included) who are disillusioned with the femme subcultures that repeatedly sell us out and tell us that because we reject the forced notion of stereotypical “femininity” we are automatically “masculine” and thus the same thing as men (but worse somehow) complete with heteronormative mentalities and privilege, ie people like femmesandfamily and their submitters.

i’m just so tired of blogs like this that demonize us for not conforming, and then tell us we’re the patriarchal ones who are addled with “femmephobia.” females are punished for performing femininity? no shit. females are punished whether they preform femininity or not. if women were punished solely for performing femininity, it would not be the societal norm.

“women today have no class! they’re all sluts”

a woman who has a lot of sex either a) does it because they like to which isnt a problem unless theyre doing it unsafely or b) is doing it because of societal pressures in which case you should have sympathy for them and not fucking mock them

“things were better in the old days”

yeah i agree i really miss the days where you could drop dead from illnesses now easily treatable and ppl who weren’t white men were treated even lesser than they are right now

“remember when girls could b beautiful in only jeans and a t-shirt?”

stop it you literally don’t have the faintest idea what you’re talking about that time never fucking existed

I will explain shortly why I am against the choice for just one sexual orientation, either gay or straight.

According to their nature, people are neither heterosexual nor homosexual. There are only sexual acts (for which people may develop their talents originally given by…
