IF ME CALLING YOU DUDE OR GURL CAUSES YOU TO HAVE DYSPHORIA YOU SHOULD tell me because you being comfortable is so much more important than some stupid slang 

or when if i call you “man” because i know i do that a lot. please tell me if it causes dysphoria or just makes you upset in general. because i will stop because i love you.

I use those as gender neutral and don’t mean it in a gender way at all but if you don’t like it tell me and I will try to stop (no promises because I usually forget things so I might need reminded a few times)

this also applies to “guurrrrrl”

also mate, buddy, bro, literally anything I use, I generally use them gender neutral but if they make you uncomfortable PLEASE TELL ME

Guy has and probably always will be gender neutral to me, but if it makes you feel uncomfortable please, please tell me.

intrigue-posthaste-please:

I’m watching that documentary “Before Stonewall” about gay history pre-1969, and uncovered something which I think is interesting.

The documentary includes a brief clip of a 1954 televised newscast about the rise of homosexuality. The host of the program interviewed psychologists, a police officer, and one “known homosexual”. The “known homosexual” is 22 years old. He identifies himself as Curtis White, which is a pseudonym; his name is actually Dale Olson.

So I tracked down the newscast. According to what I can find, Dale Olson may have been the first gay man to appear openly on television and defend his sexual orientation. He explains that there’s nothing wrong with him mentally and he’s never been arrested. When asked whether he’d take a cure if it existed, he says no. When asked whether his family knows he’s gay, he says that they didn’t up until tonight, but he guesses they’re going to find out, and he’ll probably be fired from his job as well. So of course the host is like …why are you doing this interview then? and Dale Olson, cool as cucumber pie, says “I think that this way I can be a little useful to someone besides myself.”

1954. 22 years old. Balls of pure titanium.

Despite the pseudonym, Dale’s boss did indeed recognize him from the TV program, and he was promptly fired the next day. He wrote into ONE magazine six months later to reassure readers that he had gotten a new job at a higher salary.

Curious about what became of him, I looked into his life a little further. It turns out that he ultimately became a very successful publicity agent. He promoted the Rocky movies and Superman. Not only that, but get this: Dale represented Rock Hudson, and he was the person who convinced him to disclose that he had AIDS! He wrote the statement Rock read. And as we know, Rock Hudson’s disclosure had a very significant effect on the national conversation about AIDS in the U.S.

It appears that no one has made the connection between Dale Olson the publicity agent instrumental in the AIDS debate and Dale Olson the 22-year-old first openly gay man on TV. So I thought I’d make it. For Pride month, an unsung gay hero.

Crayola now has a line of gender-fluid makeup

I’m not making this up: Crayola is making makeup.

Yep, in a partnership with young adult retail brand ASOS, Crayola now has a line of 58 vegan and cruelty-free beauty products,
which includes “face crayons,” mascara, highlighters, and eyeshadow
palettes. Shades, such as Tumbleweed and Dandelion, match the names of
actual Crayola crayons.

Elle notes
the collection is “gender fluid,” citing a press release about the line
from ASOS. They also note that both men and women are shown wearing the
product in the campaign’s photos.

And no, you can’t just use real crayons as makeup. They’re not “designed, tested, or approved” for that purpose, according to the crayon giant’s website.

(Mashable)

Fucking. Need. 😭

crayola, helping express creativity from childhood to adulthood

If you can use them as makeup, couldn’t you also use them as body colors? Like, being able to draw dragons on the naked back of your SO?

my sister can’t believe how ace i am and it’s honestly so entertaining. 

“so you…..just…..don’t feel………..anything ??” 

and i always deadpan, “no” 

and she’s like, “that sounds fake"

(the thought of sex actually repulses me to the point of nausea sometimes. it’s very intrinsic repulsion, lodged deep. it’s weird though, because i can feel very ‘hot and bothered’ when i read/watch/write something provocative; i feel it for sure. but in real life, toward real people ?  never.)

i can objectively understand the appeal of the body but subjectively have never found it so. i can understand what is considered ‘hot’ or ‘sexy’ but won’t feel a drop of it myself.

i actually really really do not care for boobs/ass/thighs/abs/whatever. i’ve actually never ever found them appealing, even when i look back to my early high school years when my friends would gush over so-and-so celebrities. i would always say something like “he’s really cute” or “he has a nice smile” and i always remember telling my friends that ‘hot’ is a weird word for me and how i just can’t use it to describe anyone.

and then i tell her that the only attraction i feel for people is purely aesthetic: it’s the face. it’s the hands. it’s the body, but the trivial little things about it. it’s the structure of faces, the arch of your brows, the shape of your eyes, the glimpse of wrist bones, the curve of your lips, the curve of your ankle when you reach up for something, the way your fingers freeze in this beautiful suspension when reaching out for something, the way your breath hitches when you’re trying to catch it, the way your knuckle bones peek out when your hand is loosely clenched around something, the contrast of hair/skin/eye colors, the way they catch the light … it mesmerizes me in the way that sort of catches in my throat. the endless combinations all of these features is so fascinating and beautiful.

it’s like, i want to keep looking at you, i don’t think i can get enough of looking at you.

that is pleasure for me.

People need to realize that there’s a difference between straight people and Straight People™

Straight person: Hey, you got a new haircut. Looks really good.

Straight Person™: No homo, but your haircut looks good on you.

In case you were confused 👌

Just like how there are white people who are gay and then there are the White Gays

White people who are gay: “I’m gay.”

White Gays: “I can’t believe I got accused of racism after calling that person a racial slur! I mean, I know what racism looks like because I’ve been discriminated for my sexuality. How is me being racist even possible? I’M GAY!”

Lmao all the angry White and Straight people in the comments, keep reblogging

neurotypical: i don’t have any mental illnesses or disorders
Neurotypical™: Happiness is a choice!! ✨✨Have you tried yoga? Drink more water and eat kale ✨✨

cis person: i identify completely as my assigned gender
Cis Person™: It doesn’t matter what you identify as, cause you still have Female Genitals! I’m not being offensive!! Read a book on Human Biology! 🚹🚺

men: I identify as male.

Men™: feminazis ruin everything, get back in the kitchen and make me a sandwich bitch

atheists: I don’t believe in god or identify with a religion

Atheists™: Don’t fucking talk to me if you believe in God. Open your closed-fucking-minds!! (usually targeted towards Christians)

nice guys: hey I know when not to invade someone’s space and I totally respect boundaries

Nice Guys™: IVE BEEN YOUR FRIEND FOR A MONTH AND NOW YOURE TELLING ME YOU DONT WANT TO FUCK ME ???? WHAT IS THE POINT OF WOMEN IF YOURE NOT HAVING SEX WITH ME?

this post got all kinds of better since I last saw it

This post is perfection across the board.

feminist: I believe in equality for everything between the sexes

Feminist™: ALL MEN ARE ASSHOLES AND SHOULD DIE! WE DONT NEED ANY OF THEM ANYWAYS AND THEY NEVER DO ANYTHING GOOD FOR US!!

Christian: I believe in God and his son Jesus

Christian™: We must Obey Bible In Everything and Take It Literally and if you don’t do it you’re Going To Hell! I’m praying for you to find God and have your sins Forgiven! Other religions are from Satan and So Is Atheism!

you know what trope pisses me off the most? when the protag is pointing a gun at somebody and they’re like “you won’t do it. you’re too good” and the person holding the gun is like oh shit i am and they slowly lower the gun while the other person laughs. WHAT THE FUCK. if i were there, and somebody told me “you won’t do it” i would immediately shoot them dead without hesitating. who are you to tell me what i wont do. musty bitch

Keep in mind that there is almost always a third option, most especially when the person talking is vague about what, precisely, it is that you “won’t do.”

If it’s noodles, pour them on your sister instead of on her computer, or if the noodles are quite hot, pour them on her pillow or in a great spattering arc around her room.

If you have a supervillain at gunpoint and *they* say you’re “too good” and “won’t do it,” shoot them in the leg/foot or the shoulder. The former allows them to think they’re right while you lower the gun only to be confronted with sudden understanding and regret when you blow their metatarsals to kingdom come, while the latter is instant and avoids giving them even a moment’s satisfaction or any time to charge you while you’re lowering the gun to shoot them in the leg.

Door Number Three usually exists and is often your friend. Endeavor to cultivate awareness thereof.

Ethical dillemas are rarely reducible down to a clear binary.
