RINNE MPREG CENTRAL

i was gonna write a whole Thing on this complete with academic sources, but 1.) why i gotta show y’all evidence and statistics for you to support us and 2.) turns out there’s not a lot of academic information about misogynoir and even less about how it effects black lgbt women so instead i’ll just say this:

being in the lgbt community can be so uncomfortable when you’re a black woman bc no one cares about us (but ourselves bc if we don’t, who will?). no one makes an effort to point out misogynoir when they see it and it seems y’all aren’t capable of even PRETENDING to care about us for more than 2 seconds

and the thing about it is, we have to bear the weight of being black, lgbt, women, and sometimes trans in a society that doesn’t give a FUCK about us and we have to do it alone only to turn around and see y’all sexualizing us (which is feeding into the misogynoir jezebel stereotype btw)

y’all pull out your graphs and go “this many black lgbt women get killed or are denied jobs or get called this that and the third” but what are y’all doing to stop that? nothing? every day you make a choice to ignore black women in your community or to be uneducated about the struggles we face, which results in me seeing so much misogynoir from the people i’m supposed to feel safe around
