STYLISH BUT ILLEGAL

Reblog if you would date a bisexual.

If you wouldn’t or would be afraid of having too much competition, click here for the opposite post.

I love it when the trans community tries to shame dysphoric people for having something they can’t help and wish they didn’t have.

DYSPHORIA IS NOT CISSEXISM, AND WE CAN’T GET OVER IT. BELIEVE ME, WE’VE TRIED.

One such lesson involves Grace coming out as a lesbian to Dunham during Grace’s senior year of high school. Though Grace wasn’t quite ready to tell their parents, Dunham was unable to contain herself and came out to them for her. “What I didn’t say in the book is how it messed up our relationship for like two years,” Dunham said, sipping a smoothie as industrial-grade Vitamix blenders roared in the background. As Grace remembered it, Dunham couldn’t last two days keeping the news to herself. “It was not two days,” Dunham said. “It was a month.” “It was about a week,” Grace said. “It was about two weeks to one week.” “You came out to me, like, a week into shooting ‘Tiny Furniture,’ ” — Dunham’s 2010 feature film — “and I didn’t tell Mom and Dad for like a week after we wrapped.” Grace rolled her eyes. “Without getting into specifics,” she said, “most of our fights have revolved around my feeling like Lena took her approach to her own personal life and made my personal life her property.” “Basically, it’s like I can’t keep any of my own secrets,” Dunham said. “And I consider Grace to be an extension of me, and therefore I couldn’t handle the fact that she’s a very private person with her own value system and her own aesthetic and that we do different things.”

[Picture shows 19 year old woman, standing with use of a cane. She has a red “x” on her hand and is holding a purple pillow with statement taped to it, reading the following] My name is Abby. I am a female, 19 year old, disabled college student and I stand with Emma Sulkowicz, but I have something to say to her that I truly hope she hears.

Emma Sulkowicz is a student at Columbia University who has been carrying around the mattress on which she was sexually assaulted as a performance art piece. Earlier today in her call to action for others around the country to carry their own mattresses in a show of support for victims and survivors of sexual assault, Emma asked that her supporters not carry pillows, stating that “pillows and ‘light’ and ‘fluffy.’” She stated that “sexual assault is neither a “light” nor “fluffy” matter, and we cannot treat it as if it were,” and suggested that by carrying pillows we are simply taking away from the number of hands to carry mattresses and instead said that people mark should themselves with a red “x” to show their willingness to help carry the weight.

But I cannot help carry a mattress. Carrying a mattress, even with a team of people, is not simply a difficult task for me, it is an impossible one. I have rheumatoid arthritis, and I walk with a cane. I am disabled. For me, even carrying a pillow is incredibly difficult, and I am far more privileged than many people with physical disability in that I can even carry that. If I were on crutches, in a wheelchair, or the use of my arms was more inhibited in any way, carrying anything would be out of the question.

According to Rape Response Services, almost 80% of people with disabilities are sexually assaulted on more than one occasion. Women with disabilities are at least twice as likely as the general population of women to be victims of sexual assault.

While I understand that Emma Sulkowicz wants to make an impact and retain the artistic integrity of her piece, disability is the often forgotten intersection in feminist activism, and I was disappointed to see her lack of consideration for those of us who cannot carry the physical weight, but are at a much greater risk to be forced to carry it emotionally.

We can’t all stand with Emma Sulkowicz.

Edit: This is a link to her original op-ed in which she presents her call to action: http://columbiaspectator.com/opinion/2014/10/26/call-carry-weight-together

This is a close friend of mine (In fact, we administrate a chronic illness/disability support group together) and I am so, so proud of her message.  Please don’t leave disabled people out of your feminism.

About the heterosexuals making their fetishes into an LGBT issue post: I was once an administrator on a somewhat large forum, and we were drafting some positive pro-LGBTQ policies into our forum rules... and during that time one of our moderators was trying to tell me that "queer" also covered fetishes. He was straight, but he was trying to tell me that he was "queer" because he had a foot fetish, and that his foot fetish meant that he was just as oppressed as the rest of us LGBT.

Parents: Why the fuck are you telling us this

Kinky person: Coming out isn't just about sexuality

Bi women being coerced by compulsory heterosexuality to prioritize men is a damaging thing for them. But the way in which they prioritize men hurts lesbians. Why should lesbians be forced to provide emotional processing for bi women who prioritize men? That onus should not be unilaterally forced on us, since bi women will often leave us in the dust when we have our own issues. 

[seasaltandcastles]

Literally go fuck yourself you biphobic piece of shit you wonder why bi girls don’t like you when you constantly bitch about how they also like men??? It’s not that hard to figure out. “Bi girls having a preference for men hurts lesbians” bitch no lesbians hurt bisexual women with shitty posts like this you sound like a fedora wearing friend zoned bitch.

We get yelled at for saying “monosexuals”, we get yelled at for saying “homosexuals”, we get yelled at for saying “gays” or “lesbians”. It’s almost like the issue isn’t the words we’re using but the fact that we’re speaking out about bisexual issues.

With the mid-term elections just days away, it’s not an exaggeration to say that women’s lives, safety and health are in serious danger. Nate Silver’s http://fivethirtyeight.com, which correctly predicted 49 of the 50 states in the last presidential election, gives the republicans a 68% chance of winning the senate. And that lead has been growing over the last two weeks. 

This is where slactivism needs to meet activism - don’t just reblog, GET OUT THE VOTE! Tell your friends, post to your channels, bring people with you - if everyone gets even 1 or 2 people to vote who were going to skip the election, we can make a huge difference and swing the outcome towards women’s rights.

If I see another idiot talking about white feminists being “useless” I stg I’m going to get a giant picture of the suffragettes/gists, put it in a metal frame and beat them with it

[the-archmagister-deactivated201]

Yeah but they only cared about white women getting the vote so you’ve really only served to prove how racist and self-serving white feminists are.
