I think often about Audre Lorde's critique of a women only event that welcomed her wife and daughter, but not her son. Because she questioned it - the function and purpose of barring even the sons of Feminist women from Feminist events. Especially the barring of her young Black son, who would otherwise be left alone in the city where he would be more prone to the very violence those same Feminist women claimed to want to change.

Because what functional, forward thinking Feminist purpose does it actually serve to do that? What message does that send to women with sons, husbands, brothers, lovers, friends, who want to involve the men and boys in their lives in their activism? Who want to build a functionally better world for us all outside of the oppressive grasp of Patriarchy? Especially for the marginalized men who often sit at their own intersection violent Patriarchal oppression, that still happens to be Patriarchal oppression despite it not being distinctly misogyny?

If the average child who has grown up in the culture (regardless of their religion) knows the religious basis of a holiday, it's a religious holiday. If they don't, it's secular.

Halloween: I think a lot of kids could tell you that it comes from All Hallows Eve, but at least in the US they wouldn't be able to tell you what that means. Secular holiday.

Valentine's Day: They would not have a single clue. Secular holiday.

Full disclosure I am on the Popsicle stick side of "how things fit" but I am also ftm with a "plus size" cis-female partner and have a vested interest in people being. Comfortable in clothing as well as being able to alter the style to personal preferences.

I'm not like a professional tailor or have fancy tools. I crAwl around on the floor to put pattern pieces together with packing tape. Even if your pattern is not from that website, hmu with any questions and I'll see what I can do.

when i was in middle school me and my friends had a small yellow horse eraser we fondly named “drugs”. this lead to a lot of middle school tomfoolery around his name and saying shit like “Ma’am, so and so took drugs from me” and other dumb shit like that.

eventually, our english teacher, Mr. R, caught onto the joke. instead of writing us up or sending us to the principal though, he played along, making similar jokes like “(name), stop taking drugs.” “hey. you three. you need to share drugs if he’s going to be at the table.” “no drugs today, guys?” so on and so forth.

by the end of the school year it had become a very fond joke between us and this english teacher, so we decided since we were moving onto our freshman year, we decided to give our eng teacher this little yellow horse eraser.

so we go find our english teacher, Mr. R, who was setting up cornhole with our principal and other “big important people” for our 8th grade graduation party, and we hand him the little eraser.

to which he yells as loudly (and happily) as he can: “YOURE GIVING ME DRUGS?!!”
