swamp witch and bog crone are hag-only terms that arose out of necessity in response to smol lesbean culture….. when non-hags use them they are stripping them of historical context and denying us our cultural legacy
and don’t come to me with “oh but anne lister referred to her non-hag girlfriend as a bog crone, oh but crone just means “old ewe” in middle dutch, blah blah blah”. it’s disingenuous and ahistorical and you know it
someone who is not a lesbian: you can’t just become a lesbian
me, an lesbian: yes you can because i said so
Gay people kissing and holding hands in public is always a good thing
I’d rather have feminism be a dirty word again than have liberal feminism make a huge, creepy, homophobic comeback honestly.

beautiful.
It is one thing to acknowledge men as subjects created through gender and, as such, subjects created through violence because gender is violent. And I think that is a necessary thing, particularly for men who face marginalizations from positions other than their gender. It is another entirely to claim that they are victims of gender in the exact same way in which women are, or to the same extent, or that the ways in which gender restricts them are not things they have the collective social power to change- those things are false. Discussing the ways in which gender harms the ability of men to recognize their own feelings and so forth is important, but until the outlet en masse for (especially heterosexual) men’s emotional problems doesn’t come in the form of patriarchal violence/violence against women that’s not a conversation women should even be asked to be a part of.

corporations have effectively co-opted pride. as such, i am proposing that we all move over to sloth and have gay sloth parades.
just clog the main thoroughfares of every major city for weeks as lgbt folk camp out in the slowest parades ever
Do y'all even know the seven deadly sins? One of them is WRATH! Are you really going to pass up the opportunity for Gay Wrath parades??
excuse me while I prepare for the Gay Gluttony Parade though
we will be like a gay, 7-headed hydra terrorizing the straight world
i’ll probably be at wrath tbh, hunting down the cishets with batons
Make it a week long celebration. Have one sin per day
