The thing about the r slur is that people who are using it again are indeed using it as a slur. This isn't a word that is being reclaimed. This is a word that is once again being used 100% as a slur. You're being a bigot if you're using it against others. Straight up. There isn't another argument to be made. Knock it tf off.
about to say something mean but i feel like every "male-specific" issue is something that also happens to women its just that a lot of you dont seem to see women as people
Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
I really deeply hate how the correct statement "using man-hating as a cover for transmisogyny is awful and you need to be able to recognize when that's being used as a dogwhistle" has somehow evolved into "misandry is real and that's why terfs are wrong" like no I don't think it is. Can we please retire Not All Men I can't do this
Stepping or step dancing is “a percussive dance in which the participant’s body is used to produce complex rhythms and sounds through a mixture of footsteps, spoken word, and hand-claps,” writes the African American Registry.
Step has its origins in Africa, as dancing has been a large part of traditional African culture for centuries.
Calling Step a "bizarre silent dance without music" has to be one of the wilder antiblack racist descriptions I've ever heard of stepping lmao. Anyway if you see the video, it's step!!! They're stepping!! It's a Black American form of dance!!
Reminder to all bi "lesbians" and other such bigots who think men can be included in lesbianism: do the entire lesbian community a favor and kill yourself, your disgusting homophobic existence will not be missed and the world will be a better place without you! <3
If you can't reblog this, don't call yourself an ally to the lesbian community, the time for silence is over.
The entire reason these people feel emboldened to spew the same bigotry as your average conservative is because you're all too spineless to stand with lesbians when we tell you time and time again that this behavior gets us assaulted, it gets us killed, and it further reinforces that lesbians cannot trust the rest of the LGBT community to have our backs.
If you're silent when we're asking you to speak out with us, then you are contributing to our continued oppression, to the increasing rise in lesbophobia.
If you STILL need to be told why these people are harmful, read this:
TODAY: (cw for police brutality if you choose to click the link) police attacked and arrested an econ professor who came across them brutalizing a protester at emory this morning. it cannot be understated how horrifying the rapid escalation of police violence on us college campuses is.
heartbreaking news... just found out swords (including fencing equipment and movie props) r now banned from the uk postal service. some lesbian visibility week this is
I feel like somehow people are taking “gender is a social construct” as like a ready phrase they can use against specifically trans women (of all orientations) and lesbians (both tma and tme) and especially trans lesbians to attempt to argue us out of existence. every other day I see people trying to argue that the very concept of trans womanhood that excludes afab membership or lesbianism that excludes attraction to men is somehow “bioessentialist” and “re-inventing a binary.” I know none of y’all doing this are reading theory or trying to develop a material analysis of gender cause it’s only ever used to harass women on here, never to learn from trans lesbians. It’s so old.
