The AO3 Tag of the Day is: Hygiene advice from the author of My Immortal
a single bit of pornography should be called a pornogram
[id: a simpsons screencap of marge looking into a fridge full of cartons of egg nog. marge is labelled “me, choosing a terrible coping skill”, the various cartons are labelled “Binge drinking”, “Watching porn”, “Isolating myself for days”, “Gaming all day”, “Getting really fucking high”, “Browsing reddit for hours”, “Crying into a pillow”, “Not eating”]
possibilities: smash your scale, throw away your fitbit, don’t count steps, cover your mirrors, don’t measure yourself, cut the sizing tags out of your clothes, stop pinching and squeezing your fat, don’t examine your blemishes & hairs & wrinkles. let your body be, unmonitored & unquantified. start with a week, or just a day
“Bisexuality is a whole, fluid identity. Do not assume that bisexuality is binary or duogamous in nature: that we have “two” sides or that we must be involved simultaneously with both genders to be fulfilled human beings. In fact, don’t assume that there are only two genders. Do not mistake our fluidity for confusion, irresponsibility, or an inability to commit. Do not equate promiscuity, infidelity, or unsafe sexual behavior with bisexuality. Those are human traits that cross all sexual orientations. Nothing should be assumed about anyone’s sexuality, including your own.”
(From the 1990 Bisexual Manifesto, Bay Area Bisexual Network, “Anything That Moves”)
“In fact, don’t assume that there are only two genders.” -From the 1990 Bisexual Manifesto
So maybe people can stop saying bisexuality’s inclusion of nonbinary folk is ‘new’. Signed, a bi nonbinary person.
see we should have kept Big Dick Energy sex/gender neutral. like Big Strap-On energy? Big Clit Energy? that’s all the same thing. it’s the same energy. a dick is not required for The Energy
See, what you need to understand is that “Not all guys like that” is never going to work. Because you’re answering an entirely different conversation than what women are actually saying.
You think women are saying “Every man is a predator and a danger to me.” And you’re replying, “But I’m not like that.”
But women aren’t saying that. They’re saying “There are too many situations where women have to worry about their safety,” and you’re saying “That’s not important.” They’re saying “Women are constantly told it’s their fault if something bad happens,” and you’re saying “Don’t worry about it.” They’re saying “Too often, women find their trust violated by men,” and you’re saying “But you should trust me!”
They’re saying “So many men have decided that what they want is more important than anything about a woman.” And you’re replying “I’m exactly like that.”
