Uh yeah, just gonna put this out there: it’s pretty fucking cissexist to say that Thomas Beatie “wasn’t really a man”. And it’s pretty fucking cissexist to attempt to invalidate someone’s gender identity.

I just clipped all my fingernails
first step to healing this OCD.
Life is harder without them. Plus my hands now look 12 years old à la phase when I bit my nails, which was somehow mysteriously cured.

mmmzombies:
How something that happens naturally to/with women can possibly not be “feminine.”
Most women grow armpit hair? How is it not feminine then? If females grow it?
I think femininity is constructed. It’s not natural at all.
I agree with eatenplacenta. Especially when you think of genderqueer, intersex, and trans folks (which is something that many cis folks do...

Something About The Subject Makes It Hard To Name by Gloria Yamato (1991)
Yamato exposes the forms of racism which contribute, even unconsciously to oppression.
She argues that there are five main types of racism, each equally as detrimental as the next:

From fyeahenglishmajorarmadillo today:
This is not so much a question as a response to a question posed on March 21. The post I’m referring to asserted that this blog “reeks of ableism”. This was not the first time I’d seen something along those lines brought into the forum, but from what I can recall it’s the first time one of the admins has responded. I feel like...

So uhh I know this isn’t really related to the whole argument or anything, but what’s the deal with fixed-speed bikes? I had one when I was like… 6. They just seem really impractical, especially for city riding when you’re going up or down hills… and aren’t they less safe? And more expensive?
IDGI.

Anonymous asked: I would like to say, concerning bikes and everything, to each his (or her) own. And understand that your anti-elitism is indeed its own brand of elitism by definition so long as you choose to argue with someone about it. That is all.
