i'll be honest, i have mixed feelings about scarleteen? they were one of the few queer sex ed sites i saw shared on tumblr when i was in middle / high school and i remember looking at their site and being underwhelmed. i remember being frustrated with lack of comprehensive information other than the rudimentary stuff i learned in my sex ed classes. it was queer-inclusive, but nowhere near what i needed, which is why i opted to share a couple of resources in my post that i personally found much more helpful and in-depth. also, i know that a fair amount of pro-scarleteen posts are already floating around tumblr, so i figured i would share some potentially lesser-known resources for variety.

i appreciate the recommendation - i didn't find scarleteen helpful as a teen, so i didn't include them, but that doesn't mean other people won't benefit from what they have to offer.

i am almost 21 years old and still meeting people my age in real life who say they get their queer sex ed from fanfiction.

listen man i can only speak from my personal dyke perspective but you NEED to read actual sex ed resources. i personally recommend girl sex 101 by allison moon (trans inclusive and very comprehensive) and fucking trans women by mira bellwether, just to start. as far as dyke stuff goes at least.

link to read girl sex 101. link to download girl sex 101 (but this one you might want adblock for). link to read fucking trans women.

you can tell a lot about someone's scooby doo opinions based on whether they refer to mystery inc's hometown as coolsville or crystal cove

you wouldnt get it

i miss whoopie pies :(

speed life updates

i will say there is something deeply fascinating about being at the point in my transition where i am generally androgynous and difficult to gender. had to work with a bigoted roadie the other day and half the time he assumed i was a woman and called me names and refused to work with me. the other half of the time he thought i was a man and called me "brother" and acted like we shared some sort of camaraderie on the basis of assumed shared gender. some people are fucking freaks man like what the hell.

i didnt realize that doogie howser was a character nph played back when he was a child star for 18 years of my life i thought my mom just really hated his face and made up a stupid fucking name to call him as retribution

lesbian love triangle is real it happened to me

i write a lot of poems about time travel. what if you could go back and fix it. what if you could go back and you couldn't but you got to exist anyway, and see it, and it was beautiful. and what if you carried so much regret in your heart but you had to sit and watch it anyway, because not watching would be almost worse. and what if you could talk to the version of you that is still six years old, and you could not understand each other, but you could recognize yourself in their eyes, and you could see your future there. and what then. and what then.
