enter the void

The way that East Asian men are emasculated and denied manhood, the way East Asian women are objectified and hyper sexualized, the way that Black men are hyper sexualized and hyper masculinized, the way Black women are also uniquely hyper sexualized and hyper masculinized, the way that SE Asian men are seen as dirty sexual predators, the way SE Asian women are fetishized and treated as oriental decoration, the way Indigenous men are completely denied manhood and gender as an extension of personhood, the way Indigenous women are stolen and silenced, the way ethnically Jewish men are seen as impotent non-humans, the way Jewish women are treated as monstrous and abrasive, it goes on it goes on.

These are unique positions that people of these demographics experience at the intersections of their races and genders that are not experienced by white gender conformity.

- the missing and murdered movement has pivoted towards using more inclusive language (missing and murdered indigenous people) as all of us are affected and it is not just our women who are stolen and exploited; our 2spirits, our men, and our children are all vulnerable.

- if you are speaking on a global scale, id just like to note that “indigenous” is a category beyond just native people of turtle island (who are already so so varied!)— indigenous can refer to anyone from ainu to !kung to saami to cree, whathaveyou.
