BRING 20BITEEN BACK
I think in the pride of this here 20biteen, we should stop sweeping bi people and the very real realities of living in this world as a bi person under the rug.
Here is an article detailing how bisexual peopleâs problems are often overlooked, in case you donât want to read it yourself here are some highlights:
Poverty is one of the main issues facing bisexual people. But nobody ever talks about it.
When it comes to poverty rates, in the United States, bisexual men are most likely to report a household income that falls below the poverty line.
Almost a quarter of American bisexual men are poor, compared with 12 percent of gay men and 6 percent of straight men.
The numbers were similar for bisexual women, with 21 percent reporting living in poverty, compared with 14 percent of straight women.Â
Bisexual women experienced the greatest material disadvantage.
Poverty rates for bisexual people, who experience multiple types of oppression, may be even higher.
As bisexual activist, Heron Greenesmith, points out, the lack of family support (which again, is an area where bisexual youths are more vulnerable than their gay/lesbian peers) is a significant contributing factor.
This intersects with bisexual people being less likely to graduate from high school in the United States, and how they experience  shockingly high rates of homlessness.
Here has some of the unique issues that bisexual people face. Highlights:
In addition to biphobia, bisexual people are often excluded or rendered invisible in LGBTQ spaces and conversations about LGBTQ issues.
Bisexual people often are misidentified because of the gender of their romantic partner.
Bisexual people suffer significantly higher rates of depression and anxiety, domestic violence, sexual assault, and poverty than lesbians, gay men, or straight cisgender people.
Bisexuals also face major health disparities and poor healthcare outcomes from a lack of adequate preventative care.
Here is a study on bisexual mental health in Australia. Highlights:
Study on bisexual mental health found there are significant links between poor mental health and the following factors: bisexual people in heterosexual relationships; bisexual people perceiving their sexuality to be bad or wrong, and bisexual people thinking their partnerâs support for their sexuality is low.
It also found one in four cisgender bisexual people had attempted suicide, and nearly 80 per cent had thought about self-harm or suicide.
Nearly 60 per cent said they had high, or very high, current psychological distress, while 40 per cent said they had experienced depression.
Research has consistently shown bisexual people have poorer mental health than gay, lesbian or heterosexual people, the paper says.
Transgender and gender diverse bisexual people experience even poorer mental health, and these findings will be released later this year.
Here is a great resource in the ways you can actively help bisexual people in your life.
Thanks for listening and happy pride đ
First of my Wolfstar Reverse Big Bang pieces You can read the awesome fic that Ren wrote inspired by this here!
58-year-old non-Jewish victim repeatedly stabbed in attack said to be similar to two recent anti-Semitic murders in the country
this shit is happening so frequently in europe and esp france that it gets almost no coverage. remember when charlie hebdo happened and there was no attention given to the kosher market massacre? goyim dont care. ××Š× ×ק×× ××× for all victims of antisemitism.
this needs more attention. it is getting absolutely swept under the rug with the notre dame fire and wont even be a blip in french media which will be covering only the fire for weeks to come, especially considering how much they Love Jews.
the fire is even spreading islamophobia and antisemitism in âconspiracy theoriesâ like this:
we need to look ahead at the very possible âretaliationâ attacks against jews and muslims in france in the coming months. france has had an epidemic of them that few non-muslim goyim are aware of/care about. here are just a few examples of antisemitic attacks in france lately:
these are only a few examples. antisemitism NEEDS to be taken seriously. it NEEDS attention and NEEDS education and compassion.
I accept it
Yes I will
I really, really hate how awful I am in regards to keeping in contact with others. I want healthy and fulfilling relationships with my friends, but itâs very hard for me to wholly invest myself. I want to talk to you, but itâs difficult for me to muster the energy to do so sometimes. I want to hang out with you, but isolation also sounds nice right now. Iâll read your texts, but Iâm not necessarily in the mood to reply at the moment. Then I feel anxious attempting to reach out when I do have the energy and I am in a good mood because I feel like I pushed you away and you dislike me now, so I usually remain isolated. I feel selfish because of it. And I feel like a bad friend.

Useful thanks!
Wow, so much information
I found a document from 1652 thatâs just a guy talking about how women are better than men and wow heâs a little confused but he got the spirit.
Literally every man in 1652: If she breathes, she a THOT!
This one random guy: All women are queens!
This idiot who loves women a lot: you seeâŚwomen are perfectâŚyou can tell because when they fall downâŚGod made it so they usually fall on their backâŚwhich hurts less and prevents them from damaging their beautiful facesâŚwow women are so smart and beautiful
This absolute dumbass who treasures women with his whole soul: you know how sometimes womenâŚare bad? Itâs actually just proof that they are way more powerful than men and they could totally kill us if they wanted to but they donât because theyâre just that nice they literally donât need us for shit
For those wondering, the document is called âThe Glory of Womenâ OR âA Treatise declaring the excellency and preheminence of Women above Men, which is proved both by Scripture, Law, Reason, and Authority, Divine and Humane.â
Yeah. Thatâs the title.
For those wondering who are also lazy,

Study traces history of some of our favorite folk stories
GUYS THIS IS AMAZING
SERIOUSLY
6000 YEARS
STORIES THAT ARE OLDER THAN CIVILIZATIONS
STORIES THAT WERE TOLD BY PEOPLE SPEAKING LANGUAGES WE NO LONGER KNOW
STORIES TOLD BY PEOPLE LOST TO THE VOID OF TIME
STORIES
GUYS LOOK AT THIS
OH MY GOD YOU GUYS
GUYYYYYSSSS
âHereâs how it worked: Fairy tales are transmitted through language, and the shoots and branches of the Indo-European language tree are well-defined, so the scientists could trace a taleâs history back up the treeâand thus back in time. If both Slavic languages and Celtic languages had a version of Jack and the Beanstalk (and the analysis revealed they might), for example, chances are the story can be traced back to the âlast common ancestor.â That would be the Proto-Western-Indo-Europeans from whom both lineages split at least 6800 years ago. The approach mirrors how an evolutionary biologist might conclude that two species came from a common ancestor if their genes both contain the same mutation not found in other modern animals.âÂ
How do they control for stories that were borrowed, which almost certainly happened?
â Unlike genes, which are almost exclusively transmitted âverticallyââfrom parent to offspringâfairy tales can also spread horizontally when one culture intermingles with another. Accordingly, much of the authorsâ study focuses on recognizing and removing tales that seem to have spread horizontally. When the pruning was done, the team was left with a total of 76 fairy tales.â
This article doesnât say how, but I bet those methods are in the paper.
For this, they used a library of cultural traits for each culture a fairy tale occurred in, and then measured the likelihood that trait t occurs in culture c due to either phylogenetic proximity (inheritance) or spatial proximity (diffusion), using autologistic regression:
(Autologistic regression is a graphical model where connected nodes have dependencies on each other, except instead of an undirected graph, ALR is a special case that requires sequential binary data and assumes a spatial ordering. In this case, the binary data are the cultural features).
Cultural traits states are generated using Monte-Carlo simulation and phylogenetic or spatial influence are fitted as local dependencies between the nodes in the graph representing cultural traits. I canât find this in the paper (though it may be mentioned in the citation of the method they used), but presumably if the spatial influence exceeds the phylogenetic influence by a certain threshold, the trait is removed.
The full paper is here.
Gonna start a post with blank memes. Please add any you have on hand and reblog to spread them.

Some reminders about Dr. King before tomorrow:
The United States Government was convicted in court of his murder.
He spoke out against police brutality, capitalism, and war.
He believed that white moderates were and are the greatest threat to civil rights, moreso than any hate group.
He was arrested over 10 times.
He was considered a dangerous radical by the majority of white Americans.Â
He refused to condemn rioters, because âa riot is the language of the unheard.â
Any white person who voted for Trump who tries to use MLK or his words as a rhtetorical tactic to justify their bigotry and complain about people protesting can personally come to my apartment in the next 24 hours for an ass-kicking.
being gay doesnt excuse you from being transphobic and racist lmao whoops
i have so many Feelings about the word âbitchâ. i love when itâs used humorously (âiâm out here ruining my own life as always bitchâ), i love when itâs reclaimed (âiâm a boss-ass bitchâ), i love when my female friends call me jokingly (âlisten here bitchâ), but when a man says it? sirens, warning lights. when a man calls a woman it it comes with such hatred. itâs stabbing. itâs sharp and vile and it drips misogyny. itâs funny how the word can be fine 95% of the time and the other 5% of the time it genuinely fills me with fear
This is the nature of reclamation! In 2019 âbitchâ is for women. Gay jokes are for lgbtqia+ people. The n word is for African Americans. And the list goes on. Thereâs a reason why those words feel different depending on their source; just because weâve reclaimed the word for ourselves does not mean weâve reclaimed it for everyone. It doesnât mean that word is cleansed of its history and stripped of its weight. And it certainly doesnât mean that the groups who used to wield those words as weapons against us canât still hurt us with them - even if thatâs not their intention.
Yes. A word CANNOT be reclaimed by, or for, a group it never described. And we are not obligated to GIVE BACK âbitchâ (or âqueerâ or any other reclaimed slur) to our oppressors, even if we use it daily to describe ourselves. They donât get to use it to describe us anymore. Not for a very long time, and maybe never.
Fun fact: Crisco was such a commonly used lube by gay men in the 70s that there was an entire ballroom scene nightclub called the Crisco Disco in New York City which had a DJ booth constructed out of a giant Crisco container.
Iâm just wondering if it was actually safe to use as lubeâŚ..
It absolutely is! Crisco is a vegetable oil, which means itâs safe to use, even with condoms (whereas baby oil and petroleum jelly destroys latex and can cause irritation and infection).
And itâs kosher!
This looks like the pitch for the most progressive crisco ad ever and frankly win.

i want to protect every young girl in the world being wrongly sexualized and forced to grow up way too fast
The 13-year-old girl from Stranger Things:
Her 15-year-old male costar:
JFC why canât they leave that poor girl alone???
Whatâs sexual about this? @sespursongles
Gee i dunno, maybe the way they had her spread her legs and make an o-face???
She has to pose, he gets to play
Asking âwhatâs sexual about thisâ is almost insidous. Sure, sheâs not naked and sheâs not performing any sexual acts, but thatâs not what sexualization necessarily means. The girl-child is looking longinly, languishingly into the camera. She has her legs in a short dress spread, her lips separated, and very much make-up making her look older. She is passive, for the camera/viewer, while the boy is active, joking, playing, relaxed and as a child, respected as a child. Iâm sure someone might say, âbut thatâs you sexualizing her, with your gazeâ but come on, who are we kidding here? We know the industry sexualizes young girls, we know this isnât a coinscidence. We know this is the pattern, the model for woman according to the male gaze or woman performing for the male gaze, and we know she is 13 and that everyone knows she is. And we know this destroys girls.
THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS
Protect Millie Bobby Brown.
(Also, as the grown-ups, thatâs our job - not hers).
