A simple answer to a simple question.

Absolutely it's worrying that there's way too much inappropriately adult content in some Drag Queen Story Sessions and that most certainly needs fighting.

BUT

That is probably not the major aim of doing this with children

Here they are malleable young minds. And the aim is to get them to believe that gender is not a real thing.

Gender is a performance, you can change it like you change your socks. It isn't tied to biological sex in any way.

And more importantly, they want to push that you don't have to be a boy or a girl, a man or a woman.

They want non binary all the way.

The man that coined the modern use of the word "gender" and "gender identity" is also the man responsible for the heinous David Reimer experiment, which he claimed a success, defending the forcible reassignment of intersex infants using this "success" for decades after. The term "gender" as it is used in modern times came from the same mind and philosophy as the concept of mutilating intersex infants and children, and we are erased from the queer community by queer folks every day. Are you including intersex people in your queer spaces and queer activism?

"Sexologist John Money introduced the terminological distinction between biological sex and gender as a role in 1955. Before his work, it was uncommon to use the word gender to refer to anything but grammatical categories. However, Money's meaning of the word did not become widespread until the 1970s, when feminist theory embraced the concept of a distinction between biological sex and the social construct of gender." (Source)

"In 1966, Dr. Money founded the Gender Identity Clinic at Johns Hopkins University and started an extensive research program on the psychohormonal treatment of paraphilias and on sex reassignment. Money formulated, defined, and coined the term "gender role" and later expanded it to gender-identity/role (G-I/R)." (Source)

In the mid-1960s, psychologist John Money encouraged the gender reassignment of David Reimer, who was born a biological male but suffered irreparable damage to his penis as an infant. Born in 1965 as Bruce Reimer, his penis was irreparably damaged during infancy due to a failed circumcision. After encouragement from Money, Reimer’s parents decided to raise Reimer as a girl.

Reimer underwent surgery as an infant to construct rudimentary female genitals, and was given female hormones during puberty. During childhood, Reimer was never told he was biologically male and regularly visited Money, who tracked the progress of his gender reassignment. Reimer unknowingly acted as an experimental subject in Money’s controversial investigation, which he called the John/Joan case. The case provided results that were used to justify thousands of sex reassignment surgeries for cases of children with "reproductive abnormalities."

Despite his upbringing, Reimer rejected the female identity as a young teenager and began living as a male. He suffered severe depression throughout his life, which culminated in his suicide at thirty-eight years old." (Source)

Dr Miriam Grossman explains about this really clearly.

The joy on her face!

The great-great-great grandchildren of Dickens take a selfie with him on his 202nd birthday.

It’s nice to see that they still hang out with grandpa Chuck.

May you all enjoy the peaceful rest and calm of Shabbos ...

The tortoise and the hare have worked out their differences and are now sharing an apartment

Good for them!

Queen - Somebody To Love 

Song of the Sea (2014) dir. Tomm Moore

I'm watching on Netflix.

Love it!

Tumblr just put a fcuking harry potter post on my feed as a "recommendation based on your likes"

Why not recommend me smallpox next. Or arthritis maybe.

Settings -> Account Settings -> Content you see -> Filtered Post Content

Add "Rowling", "jkr", "harry potter", "snape", "remus lupin", whatever you want.

Yeah I'm not doing all that. Tumblr should just ban all things related to that franchise

The pro-censorship nature of the internet generation never ceases to amaze me.

Please point out where I said I was a nationalist, and I in turn will point out the word "ironic" right in front of it.

And, of course demanding that Tumblr ban all content related to a franchise because some people dislike it and its creator.

Despite those people having every opportunity to just filter it all out from their own experience.

No, that's not a totalitarian mindset at all. 🙄

I couldn't have said it better myself.

As a 30 year old man who escaped the Alt-right pipeline, you're not going to be happy about the answer.

All I hear from leftists is how much they hate me for my immutable traits, how much they blame me for everything wrong with the world, how much they want me and everyone who looks like me dead.

Whereas Alt-right types would call me "brother" and welcome me into their ranks so long as I hated the right ways.

Do you understand the difference?

I'm an ally and support equality because I feel it's the morally correct choice to make, but holy fuck is it difficult to reconcile that with the fact that means fighting for a lot of people who see you as the scum of the earth.

Read this and then read it again and then read some fucking bell hooks because this is a legitimate problem on the left.

"To create loving men, we must love males. Loving maleness is different from praising and rewarding males for living up to sexist-defined notions of male identity. Caring about men because of what they do for us is not the same as loving males for simply being." - bell hooks, The Will to Change https://bellhooksbooks.com/product/the-will-to-change/

no.

if being told you suck your whole life makes you a fucking n*zi then you were already going to be a n*zi.

minorities are shit on all day every day and don’t become extremists.

do not police how oppressed people speak about their oppressors.

Boggles my mind that it’s still 2016. We’re still talking about the same ol’ shit that we did 8 years ago, that didn’t even exist back then either. All of this “wah wah I’m so oppressed as I type this on my smartphone from my family’s home in some US suburbs”.

I knew history repeated itself I just didn’t expect it to repeat itself only 8 fucking years later.

reblog if its friday and you made it
