…this might be a WAY too obvious question and if so i’m sorry but: are you looking at things by chandra mohanty? that might help you trace the debate a bit.
Do you know of anything specific Chandra Mohanty wrote about it? I thought of her but I can’t remember any of the specific articles in which she...
WHY DOES EVERYONE REFER TO THE DEBATE ON THE PROBLEMATIC USE OF THE TERMS THIRD WORLD/GLOBAL SOUTH/TWO-THIRDS WORLD BUT NOT ACTUALLY CITE ANY SOURCES ON WHO EXACTLY IS CARRYING OUT THIS GODDAMN DEBATE?
uuuggghhhh why is this making my research so difficult?
spring is coming and once again the tides are changing.
captain's log: It’s too early for bullshit. Stop... →
glasscoffin:
It’s too early for bullshit. Stop posting swastikas, it doesn’t make you edgy, and if you’re not Hindu there’s nothing to reclaim so fucking stop. White people stop saying racial slurs like it makes you cool
And fucking stop saying that “feminists are sexist”. Sexism doesn’t mean “this sex is…
This.
sometimes i get this feeling in my abdomen like i want to explode and take everything down with me.
sometimes i want to break down the doors of anyone who dares fuck with the people i love.
i am not a violent person, but if there had not been a door between you and i last night, one of us would have left bloody and it would not have been me. you disgust me. how anyone can treat their child...
i want to rip out my uterus with my bare hands. fdkljgdlksgj.
a lady read my palm while i was home and made me basically rethink the entire way i’ve been doing things. time for some major life changes. like being more authentic about what i feel/want/think and not trying to shape myself to what i think other people want.

How to Make Love to a Trans Person
fuckyeahmenfolk:
By Gabe Moses
Forget the images you’ve learned to attach To words like cock and clit, Chest and breasts. Break those words open Like a paramedic cracking ribs To pump blood through a failing heart. Push your hands inside. Get them messy. Scratch new definitions on the bones. Get rid of the old words altogether. Make up new words. Call it a click or a ditto. Call it the sound he...

queer families
i love the idea of extensive queer network families - having my chosen family be a part of interacting with my children and my partner, and being able to interact with theirs in familial, caring ways. i want my children to have multiple role models and a vast variety of people they are able to rely on. i want to get to know the children of my chosen family, to watch them grow and be a part of that...

"You're Too Nice"
thesecurityofsimplicity:
veraa-anima:
No. I think we need to question the world we live in when a simple act of kindness is considered to be “too nice”. There should be no such thing as too nice. We need more niceness in this world. Just because I like to go out my way to make someone happy or put my heart into everything I do for them does not make me “too nice”. It makes me human.

Sex Trafficking Rampant in Indian Country
jalwhite:
Is sexual trafficking happening in your city? What about on your remote reservation? The short answer is, “Yes, right under your nose.”
Klamath tribal member and Portland, Oregon resident Jeri Sundvall-Williams’s horrific sexual slavery ended 22 years ago, and it took an attack from a male customer, who stabbed her multiple times, to give her the courage to break free. “The light...

"Coming Out" as Fat
I’ve noticed lately that I “come out” as fat a lot. Or rather, as someone not offended by my own fat or fat in general.
It is one thing to be recognized as physically fat by others and entirely another to be recognized as one who politicizes fat in various ways.
In so many of my classes, fat is politically relevant to the things we discuss, especially in regards to the...
