“Trans-exclusionary radical feminist” That’s such a benign and neutral phrasing, as if transmisogyny is a defensible platform. Call it what it is: Transmisogyny.
It also implies that there are radical feminists who are trans-inclusive, which is not just false but laughable.

I can’t help but think, with all the fucked up stuff going on in the world every day, is this really what their time is best used for? Defending their right to speak?
It just makes me sad and angry.

That’s the realization I recently came to, and it’s kind of a no-brainer.
Henceforth, let there be no mistaking, it’s not men I’m interested in, it’s penises. Men, women, other, if you have a penis, there is the possibility that I would want to have sex with you. That’s not to say that if you don’t have a penis that it’s completely off the...

Damn brat on FB talking shit about George Takei for being in the closet in the 1960s. What the fuck is wrong with people? Yeah, you know, he was only a pioneer for being an Asian in TV/films at that time at all… And he’s only one of the leading celebrity activists for LGB (not so sure about the T) issues now… But sure, some white person can get all holy about how...

5:38 p.m. EST, March 31, 2012|
By Jeff Weiner, Orlando Sentinel
As the Trayvon Martin controversy splinters into a debate about self-defense, a central question remains: Who was heard crying for help on a 911 call in the moments before the teen was shot?

And I am pretty sure the reason most cis people would rather use MTF than just fucking saying “Trans woman” is because it makes them uncomfortable to just call us women. And fuck who ever is making this. They would rather hire a cis woman who says shit like the “I’m playing a pre-op male-to-female tranny assassin” and “I hope that I have enough gay stripes that I won’t...

Reblog if you love to write.
Whether it be fanfiction, original stories, drabbles, songs, poems, books, or anything that has to do with creative words, then reblog. Let’s gather all the writers of Tumblr together.

ashleyfullstop replied to your post: Do you think it’s responsible for a white person to assume that they’re a racist/have racist thoughts, even if they recognize that this is a problem? I ask because (as you probably guessed), I’m a white person who wants to unlearn racism and is actively trying to educate herself, but I don’t think I can do that honestly and say “I’m not a racist” when I might...

Anonymous asked: As the anon who asked the question about identifying as racist, thank you so very much. I appreciate the answer.
BTW
I’m not answering any more asks about the “fat-shaming” thing. Without casting aspersions on anyone involved in the public discussion, I’m getting the feeling the anon-asks I’m receiving are from trolls.
