That "bisexuality is transphobic" thing annoys me so much. Bi doesn't mean binary. It means "the same and other genders." The bisexual community has been using this definition for decades and for some reason we aren't heard.

I've always assumed that pansexuality referred to not just sexual but romantic/emotional attraction, and that bisexuality is purely sexual. I really think that defining pansexuality as somehow more inclusive than bisexuality is really shitty. The bisexual community has been using the "same and other genders"…
Most people fall on a spectrum of sexuality. And most are not 100% straight or 100% gay. So your assertion that non-monosexual people are just a tiny portion of the population is patently false.
Bisexual people don't exclude non-binary people. For decades now, the bisexual community has said that being bisexual means,"the sexual attraction to the same and other genders." Bi doesn't necessarily mean binary. "The same" means the gender identity of the bisexual person and "other genders" means any other…
Even if everything you say is true and he's not a danger to her, he's still pretty dangerous to himself. I doubt that car crash was caused by anything but his own driving. So maybe he does need help if he's going to keep getting into situations that put him (and anyone else on the road) in harm's way.
I tend to think that if you agree with Donald Trump on any issue, big or small, you're an irredeemable fuckwit. This goes double for all of those bros who are convinced that this all-female cast is a sign of the end times.
I also call bullshit on "by the book," there's no way a flashbang and SWAT gear is part of normal protocol. They just wanted to look cool for the cameras. And in all their preparations to look cool, they forgot the most important preparation of all - make sure you have the right fucking apartment.
Could be only in certain jurisdictions. It could also be because they decided to use it to create more drama for the cameras.
You're missing important pieces. The police, who are trained to find the suspect, went into the wrong apartment. That's their mistake, regardless of whether Aiyanna's uncle was guilty or not. It was also being filmed as part of reality television, which is why they used the flashbang and went in with SWAT gear and…
It wasn't "for some reason." It was because they were filming for a TV show and they wanted it to be as dramatic as possible. This is the cost of a culture that puts more value in shitty reality television than it does the lives of black children.
Didn't I say that it was right for the children to be taken away? If they're in danger, they need to be removed from the situation. Full stop. I meant to start a larger discussion about how difficult it is for victims of abuse to have their children returned to them once they've found stability.
I've said again and again that it wasn't wrong for her children to be taken away. They were in danger. If she couldn't get them out, someone had to. I just meant to start a larger discussion about the way abused parents are treated. Often, they don't get their children back, even after they've managed to escape.
She didn't. I think most people don't have a clear understanding about the way abuse works. I'm not saying her choices were good ones - I am saying is that it's way more complicated than you're making it out to be.
But as an abused person, she may not have the same resources as you or me - he may have isolated her from friends or family or even taken away any access to money. These things are necessary to escape. It's way too easy to demonize abuse victims when these things happen. And I understand the urge to protect the…
I understand the urge to protect the child, and in most cases I agree with you. However, you still have to remember that an abuse victim may not have the same choices available as you or me. Very often abusers cut off access to money and even family or friends - and these things may make escape possible. I agree that…
Right? Like what is this guy, a presidential hopeful?
This just sounds made-up. Like these people had a baby to save or fix their marriage and she's still so invested in that plan that she's trying to make everything sound wonderful and magical.
I tend to be sympathetic on all sides of this particular issue. I don't think there's anything wrong with cis women talking about their experiences with their genitals (especially since that kind of talk is still taboo) but the play's insensitivity lies in the fact that it cannot be added to or altered in any way. If…
This is the internet. You don't get to control how many comments you get or when they stop. I'm not saying everyone here has been kind or that their behavior is commendable. I am saying that when you figure out how to make people treat others with respect on the internet, let me know.
That's...not really helping your case, is it? I mean, you voiced an opinion on the internet. You expected to be babied?
