i've heard about these and i'm interested. i'm not in the US but i am in a very large city, so they presumably exist, but i've no clue how to find one - fetlife was my only lead and that appears to be kind of dead. i picked up a flyer for a regularly scheduled kink party at pride, but that seems to be pretty intense and have a very high bar of entry (expensive elaborate dress code)

if i can find them, would it be weird to go to one of those as a virgin? i don't really know what i'm looking for or how to talk about some of these things 🙃 would it be safe to go alone as a visibly afab person?

damn thanks for tagging this comrade. this sort of thing can make trans spaces really uncomfortable for trans/nb afab people and i've never actually seen anyone bother to warn for it before cri meow-hug

the american people

we're not even in the us. i pointed out that the war is american bullshit and is entirely being executed for the sake of american interests and they were just like "yeah lol ¯\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯"

its even more pathetic when the running dogs of usamerican empire are foreigners that don't even reap the full benefits

to be fair, everyone here loves and values the NHS, even the vast majority of conservative voters. the only question is: do we love the NHS more than we hate immigrants?

the answer is spectactularly predictable doomjak

i've been wearing nike trainers most of my life because there's an outlet store near me where all the mismade or "out of date" or whatever nikes get sent. the pair i have now has lasted me 7+ years of daily wear and i got them for £20. if you can find a decent outlet store they can be really helpful for this sort of thing

There was at least one cis woman with hy / hym pronouns in the replies to the survey

horror hi, glad to be causing trouble and confusing the narrative lmao 😎

but yeah i'm very keen of the idea that pronouns =/= gender, but that seems kind of hard for most people offline (even in many lgbt spaces) to get their head around. or the idea of neopronouns. god forbid you do both lmao

ngl i got wayyyyyyy more upbears and responses to that comment than i expected from a stream of consiousness/vent about misogyny and gender stereotypes and my Situation™ and i got kind of scared lol. shoutout to the encouraging replies and reading recommendations tho phoenix-bashful

EDIT: the thread is locked now but i typed a response to the person who asked why i still ID as a woman despite being masc (although, again, being masc or using different pronouns doesn't have anything to do with being a woman) before i realised that. may as well put it here i guess.

gender only exists to be restrictive, so I don't want anything to do with it. But I'm amab - there's no reason for camaraderie there

Gender exists to be restrictive in such a way that is designed to facilitate the exploitation of women

You're right, it is about solidarity and tbh about organising around shared concerns and dangers. When i complain about getting shit for not wearing makeup at work and such, the women in my life are fucking outraged while men i've mention it to tell me it can't be that serious. If i ever need reproductive healthcare, it can be denied to me based on the fact that i am afab, and the vast majority of people who particularly care about that are other afab people. When i go out at night i keep a very close eye on my friends and we make sure we all know where everyone is and to get home together, because, due to the fact that we're women, we are much more likely to be put in danger in that situation -- and when I have been in that kind of danger, the people (even strangers) that have helped me have always been women, the people far more likely to know how it feels and how it happens. When my manager harassed a girl at work, it was women who organised a response while the men on the team said shit about overreactions and "the benefit of the doubt" and so on.

There are a lot of situations where women and/or afab people look out for each other, either at large or individually. I have no reason to move away from the people with whom i have shared class interest due to shared oppression.

intimate connectionbetween chastity and political orthodoxy

what i'm hearing is that following your volcel oath is the path to ideological purity. a hexbear before his time volcel-judge

i genuinely don't know what's being implied here. like, she left the US to go to isn'trael and now she's upset about the evil bullshit? but the outfits and decor here suggest that this is a pro-isreal rally???? a good rule of protest signs is that they should probably form at least one (1) coherent idea. and you'd think even the most shallow chud would recognise how cheap it seems to base your actism on the iconic cornerstone of western civilisation taco bell

also those weird yellow and black uniforms and star wars ass text are Not the look jesus side-eye-1 side-eye-2

 

"you're trying to stop the russians so we don't have to fight them"
