I'm sure that's true. I didn't mean it as lesbian porn = bad, fanfiction = good.

I never said it wasn't about the sexy sexytime. I just meant it's harder to objectify someone in a harmful way when you know a lot about them and have followed their story. This goes for characters especially, because those writing fanfiction are obviously fans of these characters, so they know what they're like as…

No idea what they do...I just assume that if it's characters they already like they'd want to know? I dunno. I always thought most of it was woven in with the rest of the "plot," if you can call it that, haha.

I think that's the difference, really. A lot of times, the women in lesbian porn aren't really regarded people, whereas women writers of slash fiction at least sometimes throw in parts of humanity already given to the characters by their original storylines. I think the overall cause is the same (If you like looking…

I had a dream last night that there had been some horrible disaster and we were in the grocery store trying to get supplies to keep us alive. As for who "we" and "us" were, I can't really say. I didn't recognize anyone in the dream.

It just wasn't the point I was making. If we made the changes I talked about, all of us, we wouldn't even need one.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one! I love the way I smell. I'm told the taste is awesome, too, thank goodness. Oral is one of my top-three things that make my vagina into a fucking shooting star.

They wouldn't be locked in prison if they didn't commit the crime. If they had the self-control to not commit the crime, they wouldn't be in prison, so my point still stands. Obviously the threat of punishment isn't enough to stop them from committing the crime.

Congratulations. You hate the way women are socialized as much as I do.

She actually didn't respond quickly, if you look at the time stamps on the messages. Once the messages become increasingly disgusting, she takes a long time to figure out what to say.

I set up a murder mystery with my little cousin with her Barbies over Christmas break. She had a Ken doll who'd been passed around a lot over the years, so his head popped off easily. She'd lost the head, so we pretended he was the murder victim. (There was a plot twist, though, when the crime-busting Barbies figured…

These are the same kids that will call us "too sensitive" when we call them out on their bullshit. You guys are college students throwing a tantrum about a snow day and we're too sensitive? Get up out of my face with that bullshit...

And an audible groan from every tube sock in the nation rang out across the land...

They're not talking about a specific woman, they're talking about women in general. They're saying they shouldn't be announcers because they're women, not because they hate the voices of these specific women. They don't think women belong in sports. They believe there are specific things women are supposed to do and…

I'm just confused by your comment. If people are offended by black announcers, it's okay to shame them, but it's not okay to shame people who think women shouldn't be sports announcers? How is that different? You're still judging someone's ability to perform a task based on something that has nothing to do with how…

The issue is that you assume they're automatically going to be different somehow. Like maybe not as good? Or maybe you find female voices annoying, in which case, it may serve you to work on that. Half the people in the world are women, so you're going to have to get used to hearing female voices sometime.

Yeah, their argument is they feel that, because it's rooted in consent, it's considered above criticism. This is only somewhat true. I'll sit and talk about the implications of a rape fantasy on rape culture and on general psychology all day, but you cannot tell others what to do in the bedroom. They seem to think…

Ugh. She was completely oblivious to how she sounded. You'd think, after writing about how it sucks to gaslight people and how we need to be inclusive and non-judgmental, some of it would have sunk in.

Thanks. >.< I'd love to contribute here, too.

Exactly. I'm a Domme, but the guys I date are still my equals. I don't consider submissive people lesser than dominant people. That's a stereotype that needs to die.
