Fuck.

Totally this. But let me add this: there’s nothing wrong, IMHO, “getting a manual for fucking.” There’s nothing wrong with safe, consensual sex. The problem isn’t “getting a manual” it’s thinking that getting one is a bad thing!

emmyc:
I’m sick and tired of people acting like it’s no big deal that Chris Brown will be performing at the Grammys.
I’m frustrated that the mainstream media is covering this story like it’s any comeback story, like an exiled prince’s return to a former glory, like this is another political timeline — as though some rich and powerful old white men in the music business have not just issued an...

Now let’s see how many so-called feminists dismiss this with “LOL! What about teh MENZ!” or accuse me of being a misogynist, or engage in sexist/misandrist attacks on me rather than engage the substance of the article, or even resort to all of the above.

dduane:
Sometimes you hear something happening nearby and the imagination just leaps in response, leaving you with a little piece of writing that has no obvious destination but is amusing at the time. A line of dialogue, perhaps, that makes you say to yourself “Now that’s what they said, but what if — “
I have so much love for this. I wish I could write like this.

Because fuck women. That’s why.
Well, that’s the short version, yes. In the long version, its because there’s still a significant subsection of this country that doesn’t believe that there’s really such a thing as domestic abuse. At the bookstore I work at, every day, I sell books that push the viewpoint of women needing to be...

I am truly sorry if this is not of interest to you,as I don’t mean to bother you, but I’m sure you have heard of “Ex-Gay” Ministries(such as Exodus International).
In short, they aim to “cure” homosexuality by prayer and/or “reparative therapy”. Often this leads to severe mental and emotional damage and it has been condemned by the American...

Sen. Bernie Sanders has proposed a constitutional amendment that would overturn the Supreme Court decision in a case called Citizens United vs. FEC.
The Saving American Democracy Amendment states that:
Corporations are not persons with constitutional rights equal to real people.
Corporations are subject to regulation by the people.
Corporations may not make campaign contributions or any...

Truth, lies and Afghanistan →
I spent last year in Afghanistan, visiting and talking with U.S. troops and their Afghan partners. My duties with the Army’s Rapid Equipping Force took me into every significant area where our soldiers engage the enemy. Over the course of 12 months, I covered more than 9,000 miles and talked, traveled and patrolled with troops in Kandahar, Kunar, Ghazni, Khost, Paktika, Kunduz, Balkh, Nangarhar...

“No extramarital sex, unless it illustrates the downfalls of adultery.”

BREAKING: PROP 8 RULED UNCONSTITUTIONAL
gaywrites:
A federal appeals court in California has ruled that the state cannot constitutionally ban marriage equality.
YES!
YES!
YES!
Bahaha! YES! Victory number two!
Of course, I’m going to be realistic and remember that this isn’t a total victory. It’s going to be appealed, of course, and it’ll go to the Supreme Court. However, it’s a possibility that...

Alrighty, folks, I’m slightly bored, and seeing as I’ve been on a Tumblr kick for the last few days, I’d like to get to know a bit more about the various folks who follow me. (All thirty-two of you.)

Rafael Morelos, an openly gay 14-year-old from Washington, took his life last week after relentless bullying for his sexual orientation.
“He never told me nothing,” said his mother, Malinda Morelos. “He did not tell me he was being bullied. He had a dark side inside him that he never told me his feelings anymore.
“I thought it was just him being a teenager, and I just didn’t know...

I Suppose This Was Inevitable →
mightygodking: I’m surprised it took anti-same-sex-marriage campaigners so long to ape the common tactic of SSM families to use little kids to speak to their views. Granted, it’s nowhere near as compelling for the anti-SSM crowd as it is for the pro-SSM crowd, because when kids of SSM families say that they grew up just fine and their parents love each other, they’re both refuting the common...

But honestly there are so many things that people say are a sign of God’s presence but I can’t find any back up or proof of it in the bible and then there are things that people say they are doing in the name of Jesus and as a sign that they have Jesus and really it serves no functional purpose,…
