It’s been awhile since I visited the iY Generation (#me!), highlighting the deep thoughts they post on Tumblr. Today, I give you these brilliant reflections…
———————————————————————————————–
“Why you are obligated to find me fucking attractive: Because fuck you. Because I am an amazing fucking person, not in spite of my weight and general but BECAUSE OF IT. Because finding an opinionated genderless or genderqueer superfat genius intimidating if fucking triggering.”
“in constant awe of how cute i am (with photo of teen in bra and panties) this is not porn-do not treat it as such”
“UNLESS ALL BODIES INCLUDING MINE ARE REPRESENTED IN BODY POSTIVE SPACES AND POSTS THEN I WILL STAY FUCKING ANGRY AND YOU WILL FUCKING DEAL WITH IT BECAUSE IF HAVE ONLY BEGUN TO FIGHT”
“othering trans women just to say some catch all vaguely feminist zinger is never worth it sorry!! anti-penis rhetoric does nothing to expose the pervasive and institutionalized sexism woven into our world anyway so whats the point!! get that shit outta my face, out of my blogosphere, and far far away from my feminism”
“Justice in binary. Social Justice has a modifier on the term justice. Therefore social justice is not justice. And what is not justice, is injustice. It’s fucking corrupt from the beginning.”
“*disdainful white parent voice* kids these days and their…inability to sit quietly and cooperate as a cog in the gas guzzling white supremacist capitalist ableist heteropatriarchal machine we’ve designed for them…and their rap songs”
“a girl talking to her friend in the hall and i heard her mention how genetics is misogynistic because it punishes women for being female.”
“there is nothing powering a bullet to leave the gun. magazine clips contain no power source at all. when you put a magazine in a gun and fire it, the gun fires but there is no power source. nothing should be propelling that bullet yet it exits from the barrel. there is nothing powering the guns.”
“When I’m dating a man I’m no longer bisexual. Just like when I’m at home, I’m no longer employed. Or when I’m not studying I’m no longer a student. Mmm object impermanency “
“This is simple. The insistence that being trans is a medical condition or requires dysphoria is racist because it prioritizes white narrative of gender (including sex binary). It means that to be trans you have to feel a certain way about your body as prescribed by the medical establishment which largely upholds white colonial conceptions of genera and sex. This directly hurts twoc (Taken Without Owners Consent) who come from cultures with conceptions of sex and gender outside of white colonial ideals. It erases them and makes them subject to the will of medicine. Since ‘being trans’ becomes a prerequisite for trans specific medical treatment, trucsum(people who follow the medical definition of transsexualism) actively advocate for limiting said treatment to those who fit this very white conception of sex/gender. That is fucking racist and violent.”
“You say we (otherkin) are illogical. Let’s be logical. a) I feel that I am an angel (otherlimb wings, noncorporeal spirit, etc.) b) I think this because I was an angel in a previous life c) I cannot find an alternate explanation that is less complex and still covers the facts. Thus, I am/was an angel. That’s called Ockham’s Razor. Very nice logical tool created by William of Ockham in 1300 or thereabouts. It has stayed serviceable for 700 years. It works. So shut the fuck up.”
“I dont want to come off rude or anything but you should probably stop speaking spanish unless youre of hispanic heritage otherwise its cultural appropriation”
