I like creating him sensually, unleashing him, inflaming him, opening him. I feel his body as if I were making it with my own hands.

a phrase that kinda bothers me when talking about women's historical roles in europe is "cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children." you hear it so often, those exact words in the same order even. and once you learn a little more you realize that the massive gaping hole in that list is fiberwork. im not an expert and have no hard numbers, but i wouldnt be surprised if fiberwork took up nearly as much time as the other three tasks combined, so it's not a trivial omission.
it's not a hot take to say that the mass amnesia about fiberwork is linked to the belittlement of women's work in geneal, but i do think there's a special kind of illusion that is cast by "cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children." you hear that and think "well i cook and clean and take care of children (or i know someone who does) and i have a sense of how much work that is" and you know of course that cooking and cleaning were more laborious before modern technology, but still, you have a ballpark estimate you think, when in fact you are drastically underestimating the work load.
i also think that this just micharacterizes the role of women's work in livelihoods? cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children are all sisyphean tasks that have to be repeated the next day. these are important, but not the whole picture. when we include all kinds of fiberwork—and other things, such as making candles or soap—women's work looks much more like manufacturing, a sphere we now associate more with men's work. i feel like women's connection to making and craftsmanship is often elided.
And part of 'cooking' was brewing, pickling, preserving, fermenting..
Also memory-holed is how incredibly time-consuming laundry was and how much of it relied on physical strength.
Using a drop spindle to spin fiber into thread (which was the only way to spin thread until the spinning wheel made it to Europe in the 13th Century), and a warp-weighted loom to weave cloth, it takes a long time to turn fiber into finished items. (And even before you start spinning, you have to prepare the fibers, which is additional labor.) For an experienced adult, probably somewhere around 108 hours per square yard of fabric.
A simple dress or robe that covers an adult from shoulders to mid-calf will usually take about two yards of fabric.

Wanted to remake my post! Hello everyone, I am an indigenous trans man from the global south; I have a life-limiting disease that will end my life within weeks if i am not medicated :P I do not have a thyroid, and this severe hypothyroidism is exacerbated by insulin resistant type II diabetes that has already deformed my heart 🥹 . My condition has severely impacted my appearance, my physical and cognitive abilities.. I would like to keep living, and I am the only person in my family who works!
I have around 400+ drawings on my patreon! Exclusive and found nowhere else online. I have three other jobs, but they are all very unstable and I could lose it at any moment! I would deeply appreciate any boost! Thank you so much!!
creating eerie crests, and other things.
I also have a print store here.!
Shop gallery quality Art Prints by Caleb.
Only have 1 week left until my levothyroxine runs out, and only 2 days left of my new metformin dose 🥹 could really really use some help because I also started taking phospholipids <3
I’m so tired of “luxury.” Bring back affordable!! Joy for all!!

There needs to be more vitriolic criticism of the DSM, seeing how its originator (Emil Kraepelin) is a racist queerphobic eugenicist who just injected his opinions of mental illness into the basis of the DSM, which were then SO hard to remove and correct; that there was active debate amongst the writers of the DSM-III if it was even possible to remove them due to such a severe lack of hard evidence of whether or not the symptoms were real and they didn't want to 'disrupt what had already been there'.
Besides the DSM having an awful originator, many other issues arose from the book, such as failing to address actual evidence for the criteria listed for specific mental disorders and conflict of opinion amongst most of the psychiatric scientists writing and reviewing it.
The paper 'How Voting and Consensus Created the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III)' by James Davies is a staple in showing the inherent flaws of the DSM:
---------
“There was very little systematic research and much of the research that existed was really a hodgepodge—scattered, inconsistent, and ambiguous. I think the majority of us recognized that the amount of good, solid science upon which we were making our decisions was pretty modest. (Angell 2009, 29).”
- Theodore Millon. DSM III Task Force
“I don’t have specific recollections, some things were discussed over a number of different meetings, [which would sometimes be] followed by an exchange of memoranda about it, and then there would simply be a vote… people would raise hands, there weren’t that many people. (Interview with author, 2012)”
- Henry Pinsker, DSM III Task Force
The DSM is an innately flawed book with much-needed work to be done on it (if even possible). Fuck psychiatry.
No religion is "ideologically pure." Every single one, for its entire history, has been stealing from, fleeing from, responding to, accepting, and rejecting, ideas from its ideological neighbors.
This shaping of identity by selectively incorporating and rejecting ideas from Othered groups is, in fact, one of the major instrumentalities of religion.
FAKE RELIGION: 19th century reconstructionist religions based on chronologically diffuse fragments from various unrelated northern european peoples that got steamrolled by the Roman empire
FAKE RELIGION: 1st-7th century abrahamic religions based on chronologically diffuse fragments from various near eastern temple cults that also got steamrolled by the Roman empire.
REAL RELIGION: australopithecus born on an island and never learned to speak language or saw another human being because their mother died in childbirth and they survived on mole milk and was therefore able to think in pre-linguistic ideologically-isolated pure concepts making a clay figurine of her own penis.

Exploring your sensual and sexuality is also part of spiritual development and should not be condemned or shamed. It is apart of the spiritual evolution of humanity and especially the woman.
