So she's one of those talented asshole types? Oh well.

I leave it up to you to decide which one of these ladies is the reason why I'm posting this.

Can I cheat by saying "both of them"?

Though I will say, judging by bugbrennan's responses alone, that I hate her more than the other person.

Oh, Cathy Brennan. Claims that being a lesbian is a political stance, and then runs a website called "Pretendbians".

I've stated a few times now that it's like watching someone make faces at her own reflection.

It amazes me just how often she contradicts herself. If being a lesbian is a political stance, then how can sexuality be driven by biology? How can there be "real" lesbians & "fake" lesbians? For that matter, why is the woman who harps on about "compulsory heterosexuality" constantly assigning sexual orientations to people?

And now she's apparently biphobic.

Brennan is a transphobic piece of shit. Aaminah is someone who needs to focus her efforts in something more productive than yelling at Brennan.

I don't know who you are posting for, but I do know who the bigger problem is.

He's trying to help you, you twat. He doesn't want you to be like him. It's like me telling my girlfriend I'll kill her if she self-harms. It's not male privilege, it's because I know that once you start, it's damn hard to stop and stay stopped, and I don't want her to be like me.

It's not male privilege. If anything, feminism is to make it so that neither men nor women feel they have to cut and then hide those cuts. He's not saying it's okay for him to cut and not you. He's saying "I've been there and I don't want you to cut, too."

You know what's hard? Being a cutter and having a significant other be a cutter too. Because you both struggle and can be triggered by each other. But at the same time, you can help each other. The trick is not to put responsibility on the other. Doing stuff like 'if you cut, then I cut' is harmful to the ability to heal and not relapse into cutting again.

However, if he had really said 'can't and won't tolerate it' then that's a problem with how he said it. Telling a cutter something like that won't help them heal. It'll make them hate themselves more and up the possibility of relapse as well as make them find different places to hide it. But it still isn't male privilege. Stop using that phrase attached to something like self-harm.

Oh and re: grey delisle cause damn she's not liked by a lot of tumblr not just SJW- The criticisms against her are fair. Her twitter and tumblr are full of her so-called 'jokes'. She's transphobic, sexist, misogynistic, and has been known to send hate to her fans.

She tried apologizing about it and uh...



Welp...

Now whether you should get up in arms about a joke about spousal abuse is up to you.
Completely agreed. Note, my girlfriend doesn't self harm, but I am recovering from it and due to her mental issues, it has come up in discussions before (there's exactly one instance where she almost did, before I met her, during a bad hallucination due to her paranoid schizophrenia, she tried to give herself a Glasgow smile with scissors but stopped before she had done more than inside one side of her lips). However, that said, his wording was bad. You don't make them feel guilty for it, you are kind and caring. And, that said, I didn't know Grey was such a bitch. Then again, her parents named her Grey. They couldn't have been that great a raising her if they screwed up that badly that early on.

The girl calling Brennan out, wow. I'm impressed. Such rage is rare. Aaminah seems like a cool person, and if Brennan is so butthurt over it, then she did good. She also looks like a less pale version of my sister.
What I used to think was me is just a fading memory. I looked him right in the eye and said "Goodbye".

I don't know much about her personally. I suppose I did imply that she was just as bad as Brennan. However, what I actually meant is that she is behaving so similarly to how Brennan often does, particularly a week or so ago with Everyday Lesbophobia, that attempting to pick the lesser of the 2 shitfests seems rather pointless to me.

Thin privilege is being viewed as a trophy by the person you care about because you’re thin.

Thin privilege is being viewed as a "trophy" and not an actual person.

Textbook example of why I think the whole premise of thisisthinprivilege is flawed.

Full thing's better:



Only thing I agree with is it's weird as fuck to refer to genitals as "sex". What you do with them with other people is sex.

Well, they're right about one thing. Me and my best friend are not in our right minds. Though I can't tell which is better: the post or the description of the blog.

I kind of agree with this one, actually, if I'm reading it right. I don't like traditional, binary gender rolls telling me what I can and can't like, what I can and can't wear, how I can and can't act.

On the other hand this person is basically complaining about other people wanting to express certain traits because they want to, chalking it up to "Gender Norms"

I could roll with it in the right context. It's actually one of the things that gets my goat in some conversations. You are who you are, not who you look like or who you act like. Forcing yourself into a role isn't going to help anyone. Do what you feel you should do. Though in some cases that'll probably be nothing, in which case force yourself to do something useful like learn or clean.

Though it's probably in a less favorable, more demeaning context aimed at people who are simply doing their thing and managing to offend someone in the process.
