Women scientists made up 25% of the Pluto fly-by New Horizon team. Make sure you share this, because erasing women’s achievements in science and history is a tradition. Happens every day.

Homophobes

Don't you hate when people say you're going to hell for no reason. I'm sorry but I am not going to hell because of my sexual orientation or because I'm an atheist. But you will for kicking out your LGBT child because of who they were, and thanks to you they died on the streets due to your uncivilized views and narrow mind. So who really is the sinner

Transgender female Lesbian 🏳️‍🌈 Brown and bleached growing it out

[wearevioleta]

Violeta is the Netflix for queer women. 

Born as a direct result of the dire percentage of lesbian, bisexual, and trans women in media that for decades have run in the single digits, Violeta’s mission is simple: create content for women who love women made by women who love women. Violeta was developed as both a full service production company and a digital distribution platform to deliver queer women the quality episodic narratives and feature length films they deserve. 

Several queer professionals from different backgrounds in the entertainment industry - from award winning creatives, to producers, to the management/agency side - have banded together to launch Violeta and with it cater to an undeserved yet very active audience. Our primary target are lesbian, bisexual, and trans women between the ages of 18 and 34. 

While there is more content featuring queer women in media these days, the numbers are still abysmal. As of 2016 only 2% of characters on primetime scripted television over the last 40 years had been a lesbian or bisexual woman. Only 16% of those got a storyline with a happy ending. Queer women in media - particularly lesbians - get killed off in disproportionately high numbers when compared to any other type of character. When lesbian and bisexual women are not being killed off, they are written as trope riddled cliches. Other companies are slowly starting to produce more content that feature lesbian, bisexual, and trans women in leading or supporting roles but very little of it seems to be doing the audience justice in terms of production value quality or quantity of the stories and characters.

Having some of the founders be involved with and in direct communication with thousands of wlw community members daily over social media for years gives Violeta the clear upper hand over any competitor. As queer women who surround themselves with queer women, we know better than anyone what the lesbian and bisexual community want to see and get out of their entertainment. 

One of Violeta’s main goals is to make our audience an active part of our creative process. It is our intention to keep the lines of communication open and engage with you every step of the way as we produce the type of representation the wlw community not only needs, but also very much deserves. Violeta was created by members of the wlw community for the wlw community. As a community project, we will require everyone’s help to make this platform a success. If mainstream media won’t cater to us, then it’s up to us to make our own content.

We will be revealing the teaser poster and name of one of the actresses cast as the lead of our first project sometime this week right here on our Tumblr. In the following weeks we will be launching other social media accounts and letting you guys know how to help make - what will hopefully be - the first of many projects a reality.

In the meantime, here is the first sneak peek of our website:

10 girls I keep in my heart 1. Beauty was never your goal. Your eyeliner is sharp, a blade, war paint. Your laugh is deep and unwavering, open mouthed to bear fangs. I remember when you cut your long hair off and streaked it with pink. Not like a fairy but like a fire. Yet water runs through your veins. You love your mother so. 2. Oh girl of the earth, you never liked poetry. I think you were carved from the mountains that you’ve never seen. The strongest winds cannot move you. Your hands never rub raw. Yet your edges are soft for stone. 3. Your house is full of beautiful things but you don’t see any of it. Nothing ever feels like home. Storms blow through you so often I think you gave up on rebuilding. And now you live among the rubble. Your anger broke my windows and cut at my cheeks. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. 4. How does your smile always manage to reach your ears? So wide you have to close your eyes to make room. Your hugs nearly suffocate me but I don’t mind at all. You play nirvana on your guitar and you don’t understand the lyrics. I hope you never do. 5. I miss you everyday. The gentlest soul on earth. The world hasn’t given you half as much as you deserve. I can’t believe how many people don’t even know your name. Your heart is full of tulips and an angel sent you my way. 6. My first love. You opened my eyes. We spoke our own language and danced like no one was watching. I kept every drawing you made for me. I wonder if you remember me from time to time. 7. My oldest friend. We are holding hands underwater. We are hiding in bushes. We are spinning elaborate stories and pretending not to notice how they unravel. You used to fall asleep on my shoulder. I hope our paths cross soon. 8. You are so much made from so little. You radiate with the force of the sun your body can barely contain you. How you saw me through your own light I do not know. Your name is from the moon and Jupiter is in the art you make. Oh girl born to live. 9. I’ve seen 7000 sides of you. Multidimensional and deep as an ocean. And what lives under the surface bites. I’ve mastered the art of walking on water. I was never good enough to reach you. But someone will be. Someone is coming. I promise. 10. How is it that every song is about you? I wonder if you realize that I look for you everywhere. Your soul is in splinters they’ve flown up to space. They’re tangled in trees. You’ve sent them my way. Oh I’ve felt you exploding not in anger but in creation. Galaxy after galaxy. Oh nebulas light my way home. You are dandelions spilling over rolling hills. You are grass stained jeans. You are Ferris wheels at sunset

Coming out

Story time, so almost eight months ago I came out as transgender and sometime after that as a lesbian. So far I’m not dead so that’s good I guess I don’t know everything is so confusing. Love Arya
