but why is it that when people talk about internalized misogyny it's always girls who hate on girls who are super feminine and never girls who mock other girls for not wearing makeup or having visible body hair? i dont think girls who think they're not like most girls are the #1 enforcers of patriarchy

really terrible but not at all surprising to have factual, real-time evidence that police would not shoot right wingers even if they formed a mob and stormed government buildings

literally who CARES if straight cis men are wearing skirts for ‘clout’!!! I want to live in a world where being gnc is desirable to them rather than one where they make bigoted jokes about it. it’s GOOD that people with the privilege to do so are normalising gender non conformity and i dont give a shit if they have deliberate political intentions or if they’re just having fun you guys are all so annoying

[kidrat]

we could be using the tiktok boys to kickstart a movement around men wearing skirts that would benefit gnc and trans people but you guys want ideological purity before u want results

Loy Allen Bowlin: The Original Rhinestone Cowboy.

Bowlin was an outsider artist who decorated his home and himself, including his dentures, in rhinestones. After his death in 1995, his home was nearly demolished, but was saved at the last minute and put in an art center in Wisconsin.

Here’s a great bio of The Original Rhinestone Cowboy.

Just learned that Caster Semenya lost her legal battle and I’m so fucking sad. this is such a huge loss for intersex people in sports and sets a real fucking dangerous precedent that essentially excludes all intersex people from participating in sports unless they go through (unconsensual) HRT. the blatent racism and intersexism that the court is showing is fucking despicable and I’m so fucking upset. 

i’m also really fucking suspicious that the ONLY people talking about intersexism in the context of this legal descision are intersex people. even when this is BLATENTLY and obviously intersexist like, perisex people refuse to recognize it. and that’s fucking disappointing. i know there isn’t much awareness or solidairty with us, but still. it’s not a big ask to ask y’all to do the bare minimum of explicitly calling intersexism out for what it is.  perisex people fucking do better.

@ Everyone who has ever talked about Caster Semenya in the context of transgender medicine and sports: you are obligated to pay attention to this in the context of intersex medicine and social lives because this is an intersex issue before it’s a trans issue. 

For as many posts you make about transgender lives being impacted by these rulings I and my intersex peers expect you to do double for intersex lives. The fact that intersex people are expected to take hormones to make them closer to dyadic bodies in order to “compete fairly” in sports while athletes like Michael Phelps who have natural low lactic acid production are allowed to compete “fairly” when having an Actual Natural Advantage in terms of physiology is nothing short of intersexist. The fact that they are specifically doing this to Caster Semenya is where the racism and intersexism intersect - putting a black woman on the spot like this for her intersex condition is cruel and senseless and nobody deserves to be put in this position, especially not Caster.
