Rachel Maddow Warns That SCOTUS Trump Immunity Decision Is ā€˜a Death Squad Rulingā€™ | Video
  • Turf, not terf

    Unless you're talking about Donald's dead ex. But I don't think she identified as feminist.

  • What's stopping him?
  • Alito, Thomas, Cavanaugh, Barrett, Desantis, Abbott, Trump.

    Is that your list?

  • Reddit just isn't how it used to be.
  • I occasionally popin for subreddit drama. That's how I found out today about pizzacake's tone deaf comic about 'toxic masculinity'.

  • Surely there must be another way
  • They looked at my 6in heels and gave me a look

  • She wishes she had a knob.

    The writings of young trans men reveal a group of notably sensitive and clever people.Ā  The more of their accounts of gender dysphoria Iā€™ve read, with their insightful descriptions of anxiety, dissociation, eating disorders, self-harm and self-hatred, the more Iā€™ve wondered whether, if Iā€™d been born 30 years later, I too might have tried to transition. The allure of escaping womanhood would have been huge. I struggled with severe OCD as a teenager. If Iā€™d found community and sympathy online that I couldnā€™t find in my immediate environment, I believe I could have been persuaded to turn myself into the son my father had openly said heā€™d have preferred.

    When I read about the theory of gender identity, I remember how mentally sexless I felt in youth. I remember Coletteā€™s description of herself as a ā€˜mental hermaphroditeā€™ and Simone de Beauvoirā€™s words: ā€˜It is perfectly natural for the future woman to feel indignant at the limitations posed upon her by her sex. The real question is not why she should reject them: the problem is rather to understand why she accepts them.ā€™

    As I didnā€™t have a realistic possibility of becoming a man back in the 1980s, it had to be books and music that got me through both my mental health issues and the sexualised scrutiny and judgement that sets so many girls to war against their bodies in their teens. Fortunately for me, I found my own sense of otherness, and my ambivalence about being a woman, reflected in the work of female writers and musicians who reassured me that, in spite of everything a sexist world tries to throw at the female-bodied, itā€™s fine not to feel pink, frilly and compliant inside your own head; itā€™s OK to feel confused, dark, both sexual and non-sexual, unsure of what or who you are.

    Joanne is bitter because others are having what she didn't get.
