sherlockcat:
I’m having a severe round of anxiety in just tagging this.
It’s taking quite a lot for me to hit post.

GUISE! This is a really important post.
Trigger warning is for bullying, erasure, and discussion of rape/abuse (though not in detail).

agenderace:
I will make this point, and tag it, as many times as is needed. Because seriously, THAT IS NOT DEMISEXUALITY. That is the societally accepted version of female behavior. Does that explanation fit certain, if not many, demis? Yes. Does that explanation fit all demis? NO. Does that explanation fit many people who are not demi? Yes. Does that explanation fit everyone...

Follow-up: Tumblr’s New Policy Against...
staff:
Last Thursday, we posted a draft of a new policy against blogs that actively promote self-harm, along with some PSA-style language to appear next to searches associated with self-injury. The reaction was overwhelming. The post itself provoked more than 25,000 likes, reblogs, and replies; and more than 2,500 of you sent in comments by email. Thank you.
By far, the most common comment was...

krylataja:
This has been bothering me for a very long time before now, but still. Can I be like, asexually frustrated? I do want to join in the fourteen-year-old-girl-esque swooning over the aesthetically stunning physiognomy of certain gorgeous British men but I am also simultaneously very, very uncomfortable that everyone so many people just wants to have sex with him. I can’t...

The goal is 1,000 signatures. Please sign and reblog, because we should not have someone who is an unrepentant sexist and rape apologist, who heaps praise upon men who threaten to beat and rape women, in an editorial position here.
DONE.
Signed.

Sexuality is fluid
comeandgetmealready:
Can someone tell me why some people feel like they “own” a sexuality? I came out as lesbian in the 9th grade. I am attracted to women, and recently I have been also attracted to some men. I have started expressing my sexuality as bisexual because at this moment, I feel that I am interested in dating either a male or female and having sex with either. When I told some of my...

Hello Mainstream LGBTQ* Movement, Meet Mark
Cisgendered gay guy: Want to go over to the ROTC table and congratulate them on making their way into the 21st century?
Me: Well, I mean, I still can't enlist.
Cisgendered straight male ally: Why?
Cisgendered gay guy: What do you mean?
Me: Gender Identity Disorder disqualifies me from service.
Cisgendered gay guy: I didn't know that.
Cisgendered straight male ally: That's so ridiculous!
Me: I know. The repeal of DADT was a great step forward, but it did nothing to help me. Not that I have any desire to enlist, of course.
^Love the two real life guys in this conversation to death, don't get me wrong. Both of them have been instrumental in supporting me in my transition. But seriously, doesn't this highlight a PROBLEM?!^

Story Saturday
forallstudents:
I actually wrote this for an English class last year, as a journal about a remembered event. This is about the first time someone asked me if I was gay.
It is fourth grade, and the gym smells like tile floor, new pain, and sweaty kids. We are lined up getting ready to file back to the classroom. I am 9, the youngest in my class, and Sammy, one of my best friends, is standing...

Asexy Rant?
samhainsugarspectrum:
When people say; “Gee, I wish I was Asexual” I want to turn to them and say “No. No you don’t.”
You don’t want to be told that you don’t exist. You don’t want to be told that you’ll never be happy without something you never wanted in the first place. You don’t want to be faced with the possibility that you may never have a fulfilling romantic relationship unless you can...

justanotherblueeyedboy:
Okay, how to explain this…
Basically, when someone says “transgendered” it emplies something has happened to make them that way, it completely removes the fact that they were born transgender. It removes the dignity of being born transgender.
You wouldn’t say, “Oh, did you know know Tom is gayed?” would you?
No, because that implies something happened to Tom to make...
