Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.

I'm happy to be an obvious, "feminine" faggot: the suffering that this entails in this society is at the same time the measure or, if you want, the fragile and precious beauty of my life. It is a great destiny to possess and try to live with a clear consciousness an existence that the regular masses, in their idiotic blindness, despise and try to suffocate.
-Mario Mieli

some of my fav pins from the Lesbian Herstory Archives
[ID: 9 close up pictures of a pin against a gray background. In this description, images are numbered 1 through 9.
1. A pale pink pin with purple text. In caps, it reads: "male lesbians unite."
2. A pale yellow pin with cartoonish dark blue text. It reads: "Mr. Lady records • videos. The punctuation points are little white stars." White curvy lines and more stars are inside the word lady.
3. A black pin with gothic red text. It reads: "Serenity through viciousness."
4. A white pin with gray text. It reads: "I'm Hetro-Phobic." The word "I'm" is tilted.
5. A pin with dark gray text. The bottom half is red, and the top half has a bunch of red, distorted smiley faces, with a white background peeking through. In caps, the text reads: "happy gays are here again."
6. A white pin with saturated purple text. In caps, it reads: "don't feed or tease the straight people."
7. A sky blue pin with small gray text. It reads: "fondle with care."
8. A grey pin with a light gray illustration of a shirtless, tired looking cowboy. They hold a mug of beer in their hands, resting against a fence with a saddle on it. The sign next to them reads "Boots & Saddle."
9. A royal blue pin with lilac purple text. The first and last line are in a larger, serif font, and the center line is a smaller, sans serif font. In caps, it reads: "love is a many-gendered thing."
Quoted with slashes indicating line breaks, it reads: "love is / a many-gendered / thing." /End ID]

«Don't tell us we only care about the dykes and fags
Don't try and find fake reasons to hate us
Some people get it, lots more people need it
Freedom is freedom
It's for all or it's all for nothing»

Sergio Benvenuto in his book "Lo psichiatra e il sesso" (The Psychiatrist and Sex) writes:
«L'idea della malattia come disfunzione presuppone insomma tutta un'antropologia metafisica, teleologica, che dà per implicito il fatto che l'essere umano vada pensato come una macchina volta a uno scopo. Si è disordinati nella misura in cui non si funziona più secondo una norma tacita, implicita, di "vita normale".»
[The idea of illness as a dysfunction presupposes a whole metaphysical, teleological anthropology, which implicitly takes the fact that the human being must be thought of as a machine aimed at a purpose. We are disordered to the extent that we no longer function according to a tacit, implicit norm of "normal life".]
Normal life is that which is functional to commodity society, and it is no coincidence that Benvenuto points out how organicist psychiatry arrived in the USA in the period of Reaganism and in the United Kingdom in the period of Thatcherism.
Psychiatry therefore becomes what R.D. Laing feared it might become: «But psychiatry can so easily be a technique of brainwashing, of inducing behaviour that is adjusted, by (preferably) non-injurious torture.»
