I Lost My Gender And Sexuality In The War

sorry to anyone who followed me for anything. you're not getting that

adult life is truly just thinking “I NEED TO CLEAN” while dealing with the 17 other things that have a hard deadline

the generational divide marches on. i have never jerked off to playboy bunnies. and i will never jerk off to roblox porn

"there's roblox porn????" this website really is a millennial safe space

Mutual I wanna talk to you but I don't know what to say. I really like you and I enjoy our interactions I think you'd be an awesome person to be friends with in real life. Please do not attack me with a sledgehammer.

I reeeeaaalllyy don't like how widespread gender realism is in supposedly feminist circles on this website. You are one step away from becoming a radfem.

"Woman" is a socially constructed category and "women" have nothing intrinsic in common, other than viewing themselves as whatever "woman" is defined as in their society, or being judged by the standards of whatever "woman" is defined as in their society. Gender is as "real" of a category as race or neurotype, which is to say, it's not objectively real at all. It's an artificial category created on the basis of perceived shared traits among certain people. The people came first, they were grouped into their artificial category later. There are no intrinsic differences between men or women or nonbinary or multigender people.

Do you actually believe gender is a social construct or are you just mindlessly repeating the phrase because it sounds cool

Watching the queer way of interacting with gender go from "Gender is a social construct that can be fun to play with but at heart is a dangerous toy because it has been used for generations to oppress and divide people." To "Everyone has a perfect crystal of true gender which you must deeply introspect to discover, and you can be wrong about its nature." Has been a disaster.

As a trans person this view I feel is deeply harmful and wrong. I do believe gender is a real and not socially constructed concept. I feel no one “gave” me my gender and people telling me my gender is a construct is insulting to who I am and how hard I worked to discover myself. Not everyone has the same experience as I do but to say as an objective that gender is made up is extremely presumptuous and rude. In my personal spiritual beliefs I feel every person’s soul comes with its own relationship to gender that isn’t given by society. Do not try to tell me my religion and my relationship with myself are made up. That’s not your place. Believe your beliefs and let others believe theirs. It harms no one.

i love you friendship and qprs and best friends and friends with benefits and mentorships and roommates and found family and surrogate parents and chosen siblings and rivalries every single specifically and actively nonromantic dynamic that exists

I hope everything gets better and I hope you know I love you forever

u need to draw fatter arms it can't all go to the butt and thighs #SORRY

every day i am thankful to ancient humans for the domestication of the cat. fucking genius idea. agriculture was a good one too btw but you really outdid yourselves with the cat thing

I truly don't mean this in a holier-than-thou kind of way but imo a lot of the piss-on-the-poor behavior on this website stems not so much from a lack of reading comprehension per se, as from a determination to read other people's posts in the most deeply ungenerous possible way. There's various reasons for it (on the less sympathetic side, I think a lot of people subscribe to the middle school bully model of coolness and social rapport-building, namely "If I make make fun of/attack someone and you laugh/join in the dogpile that makes us part of the same in-group;" on the somewhat more sympathetic side, a lot of marginalized or otherwise mistreated people develop a hair-trigger hackles-up way of interacting with people as a preemptive self-defense strategy). But every time a post goes viral I'm like, man. @ Tumblr doing paranoid readings of absolutely everyone and everything around you is no way to live

mobility aids and glasses should be free for everyone

people need those to live

MEDICATION SHOULD ALSO BE FREE ACTUALLY. PEOPLE ALSO NEED THAT TO LIVE

ok i get the sentiment from people in the notes and i do agree with it but this is specifically a disability post

Even in a post-capitalist, post-consumerist world, you still need to produce goods, as a result of this, you need factories because it is more effective to have a few people making a lot of clothes in a factory than every woman being forced to sit down and spin wool all day.

The issue with factories is poor wages, unsafe working conditions and environmental impact, all of which can be fixed through things like regulatory bodies and unions, the issue is not the fact that goods are no longer all made at home

joke i like to make when a baby is crying in public is “we’ve all been there.” We literally have

partially-managed mental illness is so fucking funny i'll be sitting around doing my job and suddenly think "wow i hate myself" and immediately get confused because, like, that's not TRUE! i love myself so much. who are you to talk to me like that
