Magpies are a girl's best friend

i bet girls hated it in 1902 cuz you would constantly go on dates w guys who are working on an invention to present at the world fair

We’re all having a midlife crisis leave us be

Another dyke moment I had recently was when I was talking about how I quit dating men because I don't like them & die girlies were all like laughing along with me about it but one of them felt the need to be like "not that there's anything *wrong* with men-" and all I could think was like. Yes there is?

This was in a group of queer women too but they're like pansexual and normal ykwim. I've kind of been adopted by Women like their weird dog (nonbinary butch lesbian) but I keep forgetting they don't think there's anything wrong with men

I know they agree with me they're just afraid to admit it. They agree and then flinch. Come with me. There IS something wrong with men

I think we are pointing to a wrong direction here. The problem is the patriarchy and the class division, not the gender.

WHEN THE MODERN FRAMEWORK OF GENDER, SEX, AND SEXUALITY WAS LITERALLY BORN OUT OF 19TH CENTURY RACE SCIENCE YOU CANNOT DISCUSS FEMINISM OF ANY KIND WITHOUT HAVING TO FIRST DISCUSS THE RACIALIZATION OF GENDER ASSIGNMENT/PERCEPTION

like i cannot stress enough that when "man" and "woman" got codified "scientifically" in the 1800s as intrinsically seperate categories within western society THEY EXPLICITLY STATED BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE WERE TOO PRIMITIVE TO DEVELOP THIS DISTINCTION. WE WERE QUITE LITERALLY SEEN AS A THIRD UNDIFFERENTIATED CATEGORY BELOW (WHITE) MEN AND WOMEN.

Like you CANNOT divorce gender as a construct from race as it was literally born out of the social construct of race. Black/Brown Trans Woman and White Trans Woman are, for all intents and purposes, discrete gender identities historically speaking. And the worst part is that this way that both Black/Brown women of ANY gender have had to fight to be recognized as people - much less women - should be a point of solidarity between white trans women and black/brown women. but every time we try to have this discussion it turns into a fucking flamewar bc of white fragility

South American Feminist Maria Lugones discusses this in The Coloniality of Gender.

“Who’s the patron saint of bad bitches is that like Mary Magdalene or something?” - My agnostic non church going former Protestant girlfriend who is so supportive but so confused by my Catholicism

We were feeling pretty chuffed about having the #6 trending post on this website until we saw number 7 was a Supernatural mpreg edit
