abstinence only education is so bad for a billion reasons already thoroughly outlined by everyone with the most basic curiosity in how literally any aspect of human sexuality works, but the thing I keep thinking about lately is how effective it is at reinforcing the ideology that sex is inherently for reproduction and that any erotic behavior that doesn’t include potential for reproduction somehow is not sex.

like the line “there is no 100% effective pregnancy prevention except sexual abstinence” was repeated probably dozens of times in every health class I ever had.

I wish I could go back in time & walk into those rooms as an adult dyke and be like, interesting. What about fucking someone with a silicone strap? what about two people frotting or tribbing? what about eating pussy or ass or sucking dick or clit? what about a man without semen fucking a woman without ovaries? what about docking? what about jacking each other off while making out? what about sucking strap? what about scratching a butch’s back with long nails?

The argument falls apart as soon as you’re even mildly aware that reproduction can only happen under very specific & limited forms of sex. which of course is why they have to define all other sexual activity as sodomy that’s evil and perverted to do. it’s all such a fucking joke

Which is also how kids end up with STDs and being so shocked about it because they weren't even "having sex"! They were just "messing around", which should be safe, right?

If you only teach them to abstain from penetrative intercourse and don't even mention all the Other Stuff or how to be safe about it, that's a massive knowledge gap. Which can leave kids vulnerable to injury, illness, and distress that could easily have been avoided with proper education.

Words cannot express how utterly disappointed I am when it comes to helping Sudan. People are hesitant to show their support. They would even dismiss it. No, I am not making this shit up. I have been talking to people about Sudan and their reaction is lacklustre!

I know anti-blackness plays a significant role, along with the lack of media coverage (which is, again, due to anti-blackness), but this is unacceptable. Many people are dying. The country going through a flooding. Homes are destroyed. Families are displaced. Famine is claiming more lives than the RSF (Rapid Support Forces) and SAF (Sudanese Armed Forces) combined.

They need our help!

There is one way you can show your support! Kindly have a look at this fundraiser. It belongs to Eman Abdelrahman (@emooz-8). She is a 25 year old Sudanese and she is raising funds to evacuate. She has been campaigning since January of this year, but she struggles to receive donations to this day! The last one was made 2 DAYS AGO!

Let's pick up the pace and aim for a doable goal once again - 30K in 3 days! As of writing this (Sept 9th), 29,517 CHF has been raised! There is only 483 CHF left to go! Please check your currency exchange. It is in Swiss Franc! ($10 USD = 8 CHF)

There is also a fundraiser for her extended family. Please keep in mind that it is in Singaporean Dollars, so double check with your currency exchange! ($10 USD = $13 SGD)

You can even match me! I've given 5 CHF and $5 SGD!

Thank you!

29,517 / 30,000 CHF

Let me remind you that the last donation has been made 2 DAYS AGO. Please show your support. Donate and share!

Thank you!

i'm sorry you have to be dumb as hell to think porn invented misogyny. misogynistic tropes in porn are just reflective of a misogynistic society. a man doesn't watch porn and turn into a misogynist. you could go your whole life not watching porn and still develop an opinion like "women are sex objects" or feel that you're entitled to sex without consent just from what you see and hear from others. this seems like a simple concept to grasp if you describe yourself as a leftist?

it's hard to realise but if you were dismissed by someone who insisted that you "weren't disabled enough", that person is probably not reserving their compassion for more disabled people, they just don't give a shit about disabled people in general

also is it "compassion" that severely disabled people get or is it pity and thinly veiled disdain?

fat liberation must include disability justice. disability justice must include taking precautions against covid-19. if you follow me, wear a mask.

i'll keep this brief to spare your dash:

i genuinely don’t think the haitians eating pets lie is something that should be laughed off bc the rhetoric literally rooted in some of the worst acts of colonial violence known to man but i just know liberals are going to try and meme it away. this isn’t a funny haha republicans are so stupid thing this is a hey they are trying to justify a resurgence of specific atrocities against this specific group of people

I love you people who show kindness because "it's what you're supposed to do". I love you people who show kindess because they like being thanked. I love you people who show kindness because it makes them feel good. I love you people who show kindness because they were shown kindness first. I love you people who show kindness for "selfish" reasons. I love you people who show kindness for the "wrong" reasons. I love you people who show kindness in a body that rejects the very notion. Your kindness is not any lesser because of its motivations. The good you added to the world is just as valuable as someone doing it for the "right" reasons. Your effort is seen. Your effort is valued.
