Intersectionality in Fandom

Bisexuality is often defined as attraction to both masculine and feminine genders, whereas pansexuality is often defined as attraction regardless of gender. Some people define bisexuality as attraction to same and other genders, as heterosexuality is attraction to other and homosexuality is attraction to same, and bisexuality is attraction to both.

Some pansexuals and (transphobic) bisexuals say that bisexuality only includes attraction to cisgender people, though most bisexuals I know do not go by this definition.

This is where the difference between pansexuality and bisexuality is lost. If bisexuality includes attraction to both cis and trans people, then it is no different from pansexuality. From there, it really comes down to a bi or pan person’s personal definition of their sexuality.

In short, there is no definite difference.

Yes. 

Egalitarians seem to think everyone needs to be treated equally regardless of power structures, imbalances, and oppression. 

Feminists believe we need to protect those that are being oppressed and liberate them from those oppressive forces.

In which my tweets were stolen

I’ll only post one of my tweets, yall have seen the rest. But here is where he attempts to be fake deep but finds himself in too deep. The irony of your morals being too high to speak over a non black woman but not to appropriate & steal the experiences/words of a black one.

I love how people get all smug, deliberately do racist stuff, and are ready to write these long lectures on stuff they don’t know anything about…until they don’t get the response they want.  Then suddenly they’re young kids who just don’t know any better and weren’t trying to hurt anyone.  Bull shit.  

also surprisingly docile and like neck scritches and have a tail chasing compulsion

Their societies are entirely female-dominated. Female hyenas are larger and stronger than males and have higher social status in clan hierarchy - even the lowest-ranking female in a hyena clan is higher up the social ladder than the highest-ranking male. They’re basically the Amazons of the animal world. The females even have false penis-like appendages (which are essentially large clitorises), which led the ancient Greeks to think that hyenas were hermaphrodites. Because fuck your narrow human perceptions of sex and gender roles, that’s why.

They are considered the dominant predators of the African savannah, despite not being the largest or strongest, because they are the most successful hunters. Their hunting success rate is estimated to be about 70-80%, meaning that they catch about 70-80% of prey they pursue - a freakishly high statistic (to compare, the success rate of lions and wolves is about 20-30%). They also scavenge much less than lions do, as whowasntthere said, and are incredibly adaptable and opportunistic predators, meaning that they are also the most common and widespread of the large African carnivores. That’s not too bad for an animal typecast as a lazy scavenger.

Their jaws are some of the strongest in the animal kingdom, stronger than those of lions, tigers, wolves or perhaps bears, and can crush elephant and giraffe bones; hyenas are also able to digest all bone matter. Don’t tell me that’s not metal as fuck.

Despite looking like dogs, they are not part of the dog family and are actually more closely related to cats. Because fuck your logic. Nature does what it wants.

They are incredibly intelligent. They are easily as intelligent as primates and some scientists claim that their intelligence may even rival that of the great apes, which would make them among the most intelligent animals in the world. Hyenas even outperform chimpanzees on some tests, which is pretty damn awesome, considering that chimpanzees are our closest relatives and all.
