people are writing avengers AUs, david tennant is all over tumblr, and everyone is talking about dan howell…finally it is once again 2012. i can be at peace.
i’ve said it before i’ll say it again there’s a difference between lady gaga singing born this way in 2011 and taylor swift singing “shade never made anyone less gay” (whatever the fuck that means) to profit off of it in 2019
The difference is that Lady Gaga is bisexual and Taylor Swift is straight

Fire an Indian film that’s in English and caused full on riots in India because it was about two women falling in love and going through “religious trials” showing them that their love was okay that it was beautiful. Best Lesbian film ever, truly beautiful!

JUNE 8: Marcela and Elisa are secretly married (1901)
Spain celebrated its legalization of same-sex marriage on June 30, 2005, but unbeknownst to many, the first real same-sex marriage in Spain took place 104 years beforehand when a woman named Elisa Sanchez Loriga disguised herself as a man and legally married her lover, Marcela Gracia Ibeas, on June 8, 1901.
Marcela and Elisa’s wedding photo shows Marcela (left) in traditional bridal attire and Elisa (right) disguised as a man (x).
Both Marcela and Elisa were elementary school teachers who had met at college in A Coruña and their friendship eventually blossomed into a romance. Marcela’s parents were unhappy with the candidness of the women’s relationship and sent her to another college outside of A Coruña to finish her studies; however, Marcela’s parents’ influence only lasted so long and once Marcela and Elisa both finished college they settled down together in a village called Dumbría.
After living together for some time, Marcela and Elisa decided that they wanted to get married, and so, they went to work devising a plan. In order to trick their neighbors, Marcela and Elisa simulated a loud, angry fight that resulted in Elisa moving back to A Coruña. Their families and community believed that the two had simply broken up and parted ways, but while in A Coruña, Elisa was busy developing her new “male” identity. She cut her hair, started wearing suits, took up smoking cigars, and tricked a priest into baptizing her as a man named “Mario.” With her new identity assumed, Elisa moved back home and was legally married to Marcela on June 8, 1901 in the Church of St. Jorge in A Coruña.
Unfortunately, the honeymoon stage didn’t last long. Marcela and Elisa’s neighbors became suspicious of this strange new man named “Mario” whose appearance and voice were both creepily similar to Elisa’s. One of their neighbors leaked the story of their “marriage without man” to local newspapers and it broke out into a nationwide scandal. Marcela and Elisa both lost their jobs, were excommunicated from the Church, and were issued arrest warrants. The last that is known of the married couple is that they were able to escape local authorities by boarding a ship that was destined for Argentina and never returned. To this day, the marriage of Marcela and Elisa has never been annulled by either the Catholic Church or the Civil Registry and they are still considered to be the first same-sex couple to be legally married in Spain.

It’s only because they were caught that we know about this. Who knows how many others succeeded?
people jump to write male characters as gay no matter their canonical sexuality but the second y’all have a character with a disabled love interest suddenly “i’m gay” is up for interpretation
able bodied people fucking reblog this

Doctors insisting that all women take pregnancy tests before having an X-ray is sexist and paternalistic. I’m a lesbian who’s never been sexually active, but I’m always required to take a pregnancy test “just in case.” This practice reflects the general culture of doctors not believing and trusting women, and it needs to change.
It’s for protection of a possible baby because women can (and do) lie about it or not know they are pregnant. That’s literally it. It isnt deeper thsn that. When I went back on my depo (birth control), I hadn’t been sexually active for almost half a year but had to take a test anyway because they have to make sure. It doesn’t matter if you’re a lesbian, or if you claim you’re not sexually active, its not some personal vendetta, it’s protocol. The hospital is required do it. It’s not that big of a deal to pee in a cup.
And it literally has nothing to do with you. It’s to cover their asses in case you or the next idiot who decides to lie about being sexually active for some ridiculous reason winds up having a miscarriage or other complications due to the x-ray and tries to sue the hospital for their own stupidity.
^^^^ It’s a liability thing. Just protocol.
I didn’t know any of this. Interesting information.
Remember that scene from Scrubs where a doctor asks a patient if they use drugs, the patient says no, then a different doctor tells the patient that if they use drugs then the medicine they plan on giving him will kill him and the patient says “Yes sir, drugs sir, all the time”?
Its that. Doctors don’t distrust you because you’re a lesbian or a woman. They distrust you because you’re a patient and enough patients are idiots that if the hospital didn’t insist on checking as much as they could the legal fees alone would put them out of business, to say nothing of actually paying.
Lately I’ve been thinking about rainbow flag stickers in store windows. Like, at a dry-cleaner’s or a restaurant or a shoe store. And like. How it’s a sign for a safe space or a friendly space or an understanding space or a supportive space or at the very least a space where they will take my money without hassling me about who I sleep next to. They’re great and I’m happy they exist and thankful to the people that stick them up, but wow what a concept. Imagine straight friendly stickers. Imagine your straight friend understanding what this feels like.
