The gaydar is a multifunctional tool and the straights not only don’t have it, they also think its only for spotting gay ppl
Other settings:
- Spotting homophobes before they speak - Spotting gays to avoid - Spotting iconic songs - Spotting the safest and quickest route back home so you don’t get beaten or killed after school & many more
What the straights have is a cheap imitation which is really downgraded and has only 1 function called “stereotyping”
A guy just came to my house while I was home alone to ask if I was single why are men like this
Okay y'know what I’m gonna soapbox for a hot minute
When I was in high school, a man who I’d thought was the parent of a school friend followed me out to the grocery store parking lot greenhouse where I worked. It was dark, and late, and it was me, alone, in a chain link enclosure with one exit and a register full of cash. He called me up to the fence and asked if I wanted to get dinner, or go dancing. I was scared and shaking and told him no several times, and he only left when I falsely said I had a boyfriend. I was very aware that if he were to come over the fence, or just wait at the exit until I eventually had to leave, I could do nothing about it.
When my hair was very short, a hairdresser sent me to the barber’s side of the store so they could get the back of my head with clippers. The barber followed me out to my car to ask me out afterwards. I was very aware that we were the only people in the parking lot when it happened, and that the lot itself was tucked behind the building with no clear visibility to the road.
Today, a man I’ve met once made it very clear he knows where I live, and used that knowledge to express a romantic interest. If he ever decides that he’s unhappy with how I responded, he knows where I live. He knows what my car looks like. It is impossibly easy for him to determine when I’m home alone, and now I have to live with that knowledge.
Every woman I know has at least one story like this. My roommate had to be escorted to her car every night when she was a waitress, in case some man was waiting for her or a coworker’s shift to end.
If the person you want to ask out cannot physically run away from you when you are asking, YOU CANNOT ASK THEM OUT. You cannot ask someone out if they are at work. You cannot ask someone out if you’ve followed them to a remote/unoccupied/enclosed area. You cannot GO TO SOMEONE’S HOME UNINVITED to ask them out. You are not being romantic. You are not “taking initiative”. You are terrifying the person you want to woo. If they say yes, it is not because they want to, it is because they are terrified of what might happen if they say no.
I’m so tired of being terrified by men who think they’re being romantic.
“Every woman” you say. Do you personally know every woman in the world? Don’t presume to speak for others, and don’t make this a gendered issue either.
Actually every woman in the world is in one big group chat and they’re all telling you to fuck off
a variety of endermen from different biomes!!! all vewy cool
If I was taken to build a bear on a date and got to make a stuffed animal I’d literally cry tears of happiness

just straight up tell me
Please
THIS MAN
THIS MAN DID THAT
HE DID THAT FOR US
Thank you, James Baxter

This comic meant a whole lot to me. It was sincere in its depiction and treated the issue through the eyes of a grounded person. Not some godly hero saying everything is better than it seems, but a person trying his best before bringing her somewhere who can actually help.
“Ballet embraces the soft, ethereal and majestic side to women, and yet we often don’t see the media portray black women in this light. My project aims to reveal that women of color possess these qualities. We too are capable of portraying the princess, fairy and swan.”
—Aesha Ash
Aesha Ash’s prestigious career has included world class roles. Yet she’s now on to a different mission, with three big goals. She wishes to see ballet become more diverse. She hopes to inspire youth from rough areas to pursue their dreams. And she wants to show the world that tough environments can’t hold back talented people, especially those with ambition.
Aesha performed professionally for 13 years. She attended the legendary School of American Ballet; joined the New York City Ballet at age 18; and has danced solo and principal roles for companies like the Béjart Ballet in Lausanne, Switzerland, and the Alonzo King Lines Ballet in San Francisco. Now she’s focused on The Swan Dreams Project, in which she uses imagery to tackle stereotypes placed on black women. Aesha commissions photographers to snap her as a ballerina in her hometown of rugged Rochester, New York, and in Richmond, California, and then donates proceeds from photo sales to organizations helping advance inner city youth. She also donates images to organizations for their fundraisers and to people seeking more positive imagery for their children or groups.
The dancer points out that black women have always existed in ballet, yet few become principals, the highest tier of dancers. When Misty Copeland became the first black female principal with the prestigious American Ballet Theatre last summer, Aesha found the milestone a moment to celebrate, yet sad and troubling that in 2016, we’re still celebrating a first. She hopes The Swan Dreams project will give more dancers — and youths in general — the chance to be celebrated for their own talents.
Rochester has one of America’s highest crime rates. But Aesha hits the streets to prove that her hometown is more than violence and gangs. That’s where her Swan Dreams Project comes in. “My community saw that out of our environment came a ballerina, not just negativity — a little black girl from inner city Rochester actually went on to become a professional ballet dancer in a top-tiered company,” Aesha said in a one-on-one interview for this report. “Youth followed me on the street saying, ‘This is what we need. This lifts us up.’”

wayward son anticipation mood
A professor asked if I prefer “Miss” or “Mister” (because nb) and I accidentally said “ya boi” without thinking so now I have a professor that calls me “ya boi Rogers” every time I see him.
I’m not seeing the problem???
Everything’s so much better when it’s gay
No it’s not. I’m so tired of this “Lol gay=good” mindset. Speaking as a writer, I was writing a story that had primarily straight characters. Why, because that’s how I imagined them. That’s who they were. This damn site guilted me into thinking I had to change my characters to make the story good. So I made some gay, some trans, changed the races of a few characters and names. And you know what, it fucking sucked. Not because the characters were lgbt or poc, but because I had forced them to be something they weren’t. I became disinterested with the story and depressed, and I came to the realization that the story didn’t need to have lgbt characters or poc charactes to be a good story, because a story isn’t about their sexual preference or color, it’s about who they are inside. I changed the characters back to how I originally had them, which was primarily straight and white, and the story was reinvigorated because I wasn’t forcing it to be something it wasn’t. I was allowing the story to be what it was.
So no, gay doesn’t equal better. Gay doesn’t mean good. And having this mindset can negatively impact stories when you force your characters to be something their not.
Anyways everything’s so much better when it’s gay
#wow that’s a really roundabout way of saying you’re a shitty writer - [x]
“as a straight white author i can’t imagine a world that doesn’t revolve around me and diversity is just too hard to write”
“I tried to write LGBT characters and it gave me depression” I’m screaming omg
If the way you’re writing gay/trans and POC characters is so different from the way you write cishet and white characters, you’re probably stereotyping and doing something wrong
sir that’s my emotional support racist and homophobic writing method
I’m just going to leave this here…
im on mobile, can someone make one that adds “jews”
Done
Cowards won’t reblog this version.
*walks up to straight couple* which one of you is the bee and which one of you is the fully grown adult woman who left her fiance for the bee?
The ozone layer is healing and the holes are lessening in size! The damage could be completely reversed within our lifetimes!
By in our lifetimes i mean that they’re predicting it could be majorly, if not entirely, fixed by 2060-2080 (x)
However chloroform levels in the atmosphere are too high and are slowing down the progress. (x)
It is getting better tho! theres a little good environmental news!!
carry on fan culture is seeing the same ten posts on every single blog
Watch: It’s your right to share your salary, not doing so could be holding you back.
At my last company, one day someone in accounting approached me at lunch and quietly told me I need to ask for a raise because I was way underpaid.
They gave me a number to shoot for. It was about twice than what I had been making at the time.
So I went online, did some research, found some figures backing up my claim, put it all together and went to my boss.
I got what I asked for.
If it hadn’t been for that person in accounting telling me I was way underpaid, I’d have never known. I went from barely scraping by to being able to have a savings account and getting all my debts paid thanks to them.
You should at least check sites like salary.com to start the process of seeing what you should be making.
Because this is crucially important
Except for the fact that 90% of the time you are under contract not to talk about your salary otherwise the company can sue you. Every job I’ve had I’ve had to sign that I won’t discuss my pay with other employees otherwise my employment is terminated and the company will take legal action.
It’s actually illegal for companies to forbid wage discussion, they’re just counting on you not knowing your rights.
Refugees welcome - no one is illegal
