Feminist latina dreamer.

Sensual yet caustic. Poetically endearing, but brazen and harsh. I like dance, competition, laughter, philosophical talks until the sun rises. Magic, adventure, and culture. Let's make it happen.

My actual nightmare

[rejectedprincesses]

Marsha P. Johnson died on this day in 1992. Co-founder of the Street Transvestites Action Revolutionaries, she cheerfully cared for the less fortunate, earning her the moniker Saint Marsha. The police ruled her death a suicide - but in 2012 began re-investigating it as a homicide.

[lesbonesbonesbones-deactivated2]

He was awesome, for sure, but he was a gay man. Literally according to himself, in an interview days before his death. This is homophobic, gay erasure. He was not a woman and he did not call himself such.

[rejectedprincesses]

So a couple things:

I didn’t specify her gender identity. (as a random cishet white dude on the internet, I shouldn’t be making those determinations in general.)

Yes, she called herself a gay man.

She also used female pronouns. In every single interview with one of her friends that I’ve ever seen (and I’ve watched hours of them), they used female pronouns for her. I would argue that if one truly seeks to honor Marsha, they should follow said examples and use female pronouns.

The 1970s gay community also did its level best to exclude Marsha, Sylvia Rivera, and other people in STAR. They attempted to ban them from the 1978 New York Gay Pride Parade. Marsha and Sylvia ran to the front of the parade and unfurled a banner anyway. I would argue that it is a greater erasure to simply label Marsha a “gay man” and ignore her life’s reality, which included extreme discrimination from many in the gay community, who didn’t accept her as a gay man.

(The gay community did evolve! By 1980 Marsha and Sylvia were invited to be at the front of the parade. This is all ancient history at this point, and not meant as a knock on the modern gay community.)

Marsha was born in 1945. There wasn’t fine-grain gender terminology at a popular level during her coming of age – most everything was lumped under “gay.” I am not making the argument that she would have identified differently if born in a different era (although that’s probably an argument someone could make). I am saying that it is very difficult to map modern gender definitions onto vintage gender declarations. Marsha was as complex a human being as any of us and should be represented as such. I see your categorization of her as reductionist.

Calling that short paragraph homophobic is a willful misrepresentation.

I can top it: yesterday, NPR made a series of tweets that Trump supporters called “propaganda” and “trash words” to insult Trump and push NPR’s agenda.

NPR was tweeting the Declaration of Independence.

And that, folks, describes about 75% of Trump’s voter base.

[paddysnuffles]

Some exammples of the Trump followers vs NPR thing

[eclecticdreamweaver]

So they are admitting Trump is a dictator?

Some Trump supporters thought NPR tweeted ‘propaganda.’ It was the Declaration of Independence.

The big problem with eating pussy is that guys use it as a tool to get a girl wet for penetration instead of treating it like its own sex act that requires arousal beforehand. Like don’t go 0-oral pls. Kiss, tease, dirty talk, touch, make them NEED it first. You’ll save yourself time and tongue strain as well as giving them a wayyy better orgasm hello

[phoenix-ace]

I’ll say it before and I’ll say it again:

You cannot challenge racism, on this level, by being nice to and reaching out to white supremacists.  Their entire ideology revolves around dehumanizing us.  It just does. not. work.  

You cannot fight fascism by prioritizing the feelings of fascists and letting them think they’re safe around you.  You don’t “get them on your side”.  Because treating them kindly and respecting them, gives them your silent approval and access to those of you who are way more vulnerable than you are and who cannot afford to feel safe enough to “debate” with these monsters. 

Our humanity is not a question or a debate topic, and by giving these people a platform you legitimize their views and help spread them to a larger audience.

The idea that MLK was ‘nice’ to white supremacists is also just historical revisionism @kuurihaunt.

He was sent death threats. The FBI considered him dangerous. People assaulted and murdered many of his followers. White America thought he was too confrontational and not appeasing enough to the sensibilities of whites. He was considered disruptive and an “outside agitator.” He was not a beloved man. He was hated and despised.

His protests came with the risk of being brutalized or killed by police or vigilantes. He decried the white moderate for caring more about order than justice. He refused to condemn riots, ‘the language of the unheard,’ because of how violent America was to Black people. Despite their differences, Malcolm X offered him protection and self-defense. Even though he was committed to nonviolent resistance, which meant breaking the law, disrupting traffic and yes - willingly opening yourself to being brutalized, he was more complicated than you give him credit.

The United States hated him and for his troubles he was killed.

He was not the caricature of nonviolence you think he was. Read a fucking book.

As a former zookeeper we would hear this a lot. “If you don’t study hard you’ll end up cleaning poop for a living.” It’s the one time we’re allowed to go off on the visitors. I once heard my boss rant for five minutes at a lady, in front of her kids, about how he had a Master’s degree, how people literally worked there for free, and how dare she judge people without bothering to know anything about them. Later that day his boss came by and said, roughly, “She told us what happened. Thanks for not throwing anything this time.”

Shit No One Told Me About My Period

I knew the basics before I got it, but I had no clue…

* The blood wouldn’t necessarily be red. When I first got my period, I spent a few min looking at my underwear wondering how I shit myself. I didn’t know the blood could look brown, or be thick.

* That tampons weren’t a good idea yet. I was 10 or 11 when I got my first period and physically smaller than an adult woman. My first attempt at inserting a tampon was very painful and unsuccessful. I wouldn’t use them until I was around 14 or so.

* That when you use pads the blood can get on your bottom and I’d have to occasionally clean off the toilet seat after using it.

* That getting your first period DOES NOT mean you’re fully developed and fully able to bear children. I could have technically gotten pregnant at that age, but I was still a child and pregnancy would have put my life in danger because I was still physically immature.

* That it wouldn’t be regular for another few years.

* That very painful cramping is NOT NORMAL once you reach your 20s and is cause for concern.

* That the blood and tissue you pass can look chunky or stringy and not like blood from a cut.

* That stress can halt your period for months BUT

* That doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant

Feel free to add your own

[angelsaxis]

-passing blood clots is completely normal

-that your period may straight up skip a month when you first get it

-and then it’ll happen twice in the same month

-getting your period does NOT automatically make you a woman

[martee-bee-blog]

Painful cramping isn’t normal in your 20’s? That’s a little concerning, mine have been getting exponentially worse

[phinarei]

It is NOT normal. 

I can 100% guarantee you have endometriosis, PCOS, or another hormone problem. If your doctor says it’s normal, DEMAND a second opinion. 

Thinking that it’s normal is how people end up infertile or dead. It’s why so many women under 40 these days are having an almost impossible time either conceiving or preventing conception. Because no one teaches anyone that it’s the sign of trouble that can very seriously hurt you. 

Anyone who has severe cramps, heavy bleeding, or irregular periods after about 19 years old should seek medical advice. None of those are normal. 

If you have skin tags, a hard time losing weight, migraines related to your period, depression that is amplified when menstruating, severe mood swings, sleep disturbances that get worse with menstruation, or any other significant health problem that started with puberty and is worse when hormones are fluctuating you need to be checked. 

None of the things that people relate to women on their periods is actually an example of a healthy woman. It’s an example of people who need one form of treatment or another. 

[colt-kun]

Do NOT go to a general doctor. Find a women’s health center. Obgyn doctors. ASK SPECIFICALLY FOR A FEMALE DOCTOR. (Also helps with creating a demand for female doctors, win-win)

And if the doctor you do see tried to write you off as “nothing” or “its normal”? Politely insist for another doctor. People forget: you are paying them for a service. If you believe the doctor is not taking you or your problems seriously, ASK FOR ANOTHER DOCTOR. Specifically, “Do you have another doctor on staff who is more experienced with female health”. It is WELL within your right to change doctors as you see fit - you owe no loyalty to one specific doctor if they aren’t meeting your needs.

Reblogging for all my followers with vaginas. I have so many sisters and friends with vaginas and I didn’t know most of this. I turn 30 soon. You’d think I’d have pick up these bits of information over the years in conversation.

[luckystarchild]

Hey!! Hey everybody with periods!!! If you have a period you should read this, because it’s helpful, and people with periods really aren’t taught enough about their own bodies.

[daddys-chaton-noir]

even if u personally don’t get a period, someone u know/care abt prob does & u should pass this along

women’s health is health & we should all know these things, i feel

[peanutbutterandjeri]

dude I’ve had every single one of the symptoms they mentioned up there and I never thought to get checked because my mom would tell me she’d suffer from it too so it was normal….to think if she went to the doctor, both she and I could have been saved the pain

[latinaballerina27]

Hi, I’m doing some research on this now but can someone pass me a veritable link to show my doctor?

I don’t want to sound difficult but I really don’t have options when it comes to seeing obgyn. Appt. times are months apart, and I’m a full time student + 2 jobs. Please help if you can
