I'm much, much, much more concerned with our bloated military budget than I'll ever be with social program fraud.

For fuck's sake. It's none of your goddamn business!!!!! You're not the sole taxpayer contributing to these programs! If a parent wants to get their kid actual Cheerios instead of fucking CardboardCircleO's or whatever the generic shit is so they can feel like they're a fucking human being worthy of quality products…

It's so odd how if you're a sexually active woman, you will be called a slut and if you're not then you'll be branded an uptight prude with issues. You're supposed to be sexual and yet not be sexual. It's all just bullshit.

"I'm not broken" and "there are other people like me" are exactly it. The alienation when you are the only person you know who doesn't have any reference point for the sexual desire that underpins so much of modern culture — whether expressing it or trying to repress it— is intense.

Typically, I don't pick fights, but this is just too much for me at the moment. (Aces, please correct any of my information.)

People are always surprised when I mention my disinterest in sex (I've only used the actual term 'asexual' with two people in my real life). I am a very sex positive person and fully support everyone's right to go out and do their thing (safely), and so when people find out that it's not personally my jam, they don't…

i get crushes on people, both bc of looks and personality. like i'll like someone a lot and then i think about sexing them and i'm like meeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhh i guess i'll pass.

i've heard the exact same thing from gay and lesbian friends about transexuals.

I pretty much realized I was asexual a few years back after a series of relationships ended because of my lack of interest to have sex and the last one threatened to rape me if I didn't sleep with her.

Do I need to get out the asexual erasure bingo cards!

This is really interesting. Thanks Tracy :)

Yesssssss. Wonderful article, Tracy. The idea that non-normative sexual desires, asexuality in particular, are unhealthy seems to be constantly regaining traction. Repeat after me, people: it is not sex-positive to shove your idea of healthy sex down other people's throats. It is not sex positive to presume a lack of…

What has Charlie ever done to you to wish this shit-fest movie on him? I'll just rewatch episodes of SOA if I want to see his ass.

And the idea that women only lust after him because he's playing "Christian Gray" is crazy. He used to be an underwear model, AND just look at him:

I mean, she gets pregnant from swallowing watermelon seeds, right? That's what I was told when I was a child!

Carrots and sticks, though.

Not without a green card joke being thrown in (by everyone's favorite woman-beating white guy) for good measure, though

If there comes a point that I don't love this photo, then you can put me to bed with a shovel.

I also liked the fact that the black kid kinda highlights that not all black people are into hip hop and nor do they have to be. Thing is Eddies doesn't really have anything in common with Walter(the black kid) nor does Walter want to really be his friend. I see it more as them both being outcasts and Eddie trying to…
