If you really think comprehensive sex education is...
sinidentidades: Get. Out. Get.  The. Fuck. Out.  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!

I’M NOT OKAY WITH CHRIS BROWN PERFORMING AT THE... →
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...

– Female Privilege Checklist 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. (via ryking) ...

DD.tumblr: Fragment: the Munich Flight →
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.  (Y’know, I realized...

Why is a political party that refuses to pass a...
sanityscraps: caffeinatedfeminist: 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...

End the Use of "Ex Gay" Ministries on Minors --... →
stfuconservatives: gaychristian submitted:  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...

Libérate.: Everyone →
ryking: sinidentidades: should write an email to Tumblr Support directing them to remove Ryking as an editor. He’s undeserving of that position. He constantly misuses and abuses his power. In the email, suggest to them that they add Mohandasgandhi as an editor for the politics tag…. I think the use of the word “scumtards” in that post is reason enough. It’s an ugly...

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...

Christian Porn is a thing, you guys. →
sinidentidades: josiahfiles: harrytomlomsom: thefourofclubs: oh my god “No extramarital sex, unless it illustrates the downfalls of adultery.” “All filmed sexual acts in the Christian Porn genre are genuine intentions to create life, performed by heterosexual married Christian couples.” OH, MY GOD. I think this may be the most horrifyingly hilarious thing I’ve ever seen,...

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...

Speak, and I Shall...Speak Back?
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.) So, y’know what? Talk to me. I’m DracoFire87 on pretty much any instant messenger client you could think of, and I have an ask box. I would be truly tickled pink to get...

sinidentidades: I think she now has a legitimate reason to be afraid. Everyone is angry. She also insulted menudo, which is a dish that everyone is very fond of here.  And you don’t fuck with that shit. Like ever.  Totally unrelated, but because of this I have wiki-ed menudo. I think I’m going to add it to my list of “dishes which I think I would very much enjoy, but would...

In memory of Rafael Morelos, age 14 →
gaywrites: 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...

– The Bearable Whiteness of Being Gay - CNN Opinion (via thenoobyorker) What’s shocking is when I read on Grindr or something else “Aryan for same”.  It’s like, “W… what?”  One time I actually read “übermensch” in a Grindr profile.  (via cuntymint) </3 (via oppressionisyucky) This is why I...

One Town's War on Gay Teens →
jonjonlewis: searchingfor-peace: catchthisreason: lettersfromtitan: 1. This is very triggering about bullying and suicide. Proceed with caution. 2. This is from Rolling Stone’s Valentine’s Day issue. 3. If you are a straight person in the Glee fandom, oh god, do I want you to read every word of this. Everyone needs to read this. This isn’t just me and my silly Glee fannishness this is...
