I don't know who the girl with the faux hawk is, but I am totally jealous and digging her hair. Fierce!

Even though it makes me sad to say it, I think your black person growing up in a life of luxury experiencing no racism is a mythical creature (One I wish could exist, but at this point in history has not materialized). Even if this person experienced no direct acts of racism, if we're assuming he lives in the USA,…
Please tell me more about this. I am white, but I desperately want to understand and be supportive of all women. I recognize my privilege and that my experience of being a woman has similarities to women of color, but also profound differences. I live in NH, all of my girlfriends are white, there are limited…
Agreed. Also interested to know.
Come on in, the waters fine! lol I am a social worker with lots of social work friends and am also in AA, so I'm blessed to be surrounded by a lot of people who are very open in sharing their feelings and in working towards treating others with kindness.
I feel mixed about this. I think he holds the higher responsibility as he was the professional in the relationship, but as noted, she is an adult blah blah blah, and if this were a normal type of patient obgyn interaction, I would feel stronger about her role. However, I am also taking into account the fact that she…
Don't forget: And you're all just sooooo sensitive. It's not like anyone's beating women, ok? I even have friends who are women. Now get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich.
Oh, the worst though is when the poster is someone in your family. My cousin's husband posted a video of John Boehner hitting Nancy Pelosi over the head with the speaker's gavel (doctored, of course) hard enough that she collapsed on the ground, and wrote about how amusing it was. I kind of regret not posting…
I've really tried to watch the way my friends and I, even the guys, talk about our bodies and post about them on social media. I've made a very conscious effort this last year to point out when I or they are fat-shaming ourselves or making other derogatory comments about our appearances that have no bearing on the…
This just sent me into so many tears. I don't have cancer, but I'm this girl's age and 4 years ago was diagnosed with an illness that can be terminal. There's been a few times where I've been so sick I thought I was going to die. The last 2 years has been better for the most part, but this brought back all the…
Is erotica about sex with cars a thing yet, because: INSPIRED!

I high five you, and think the comments chastising you are misplaced. It's not as if you said those things unprompted. People were calling you out for judgments they made about you, and I think you called attention to things that others could be cruel about to them in their own lives to remind them that they're not…
Neither of those syndromes are part of hermaphroditism. My point is is that many things don't fit into the narrow sexual binary, most things, but lots and lots of them don't, and this woman (which she is) is clearly much more woman than man. I don't understand why it matters that she was 'raised as a man'. As the…
I wasn't giving you life lessons, I was stating my observation and opinion, and please don't patronize me with terms like 'dear girl'. I find that to be passive aggressive and dismissive. We're all adults here, and I respect you and others enough on here to not interact with people in that way. We don't have to…
Well, hi, nice to meet you, then. And honestly, in this regard I wouldn't respect the opinion of the average MMA fighter who is (and I'm speaking of course in generalities here, so please forgive me- this is a mixture of both personal interactions with many and reading a lot of qualitative and quantitative research…
There is a syndrome that causes one to not have a fully formed vagina or internal organs (Turner Syndrome) similar to the situation that a MtoF trans person would face- doesn't mean people living with this syndrome are less female if that's how they choose to identify. In Klinefelter's Syndrome, an anatomical male…
