You’re right, and it’s not an “outdated” view at all. There were TONS of TERF feminists on my college campus, and tons of gals I know would make the long drive to Mitch-Fest, despite knowing the organizer’s weird ideas about “womynism.”

THIS is hard hitting social commentary. Julianne you’ve proven to be a real voice for the marginalized. Thank you.
Aww schucks lady thanks! Yeah, I got on Kinja not knowing every one used funny profile pics and handles. I am so obtuse sometimes.
Shoot lady I was using like some generic brand mouse and my hair was HATING me. I am still repairing years of mistreatment! I cannot reconcile how long it took me to embrace my curls. For like 20 years I had this amazing hair and I would gel and mouse it back into pony tails. Loving and rockin’ my curls has been…
Also Miss. Jessies is flippin’ wonderful! I use her pillow soft, the quick dry curls, and her hair lotion for mixed girls. My only dislike is the price-ouch!
I just want to comment on your 4th bullet because as a woman it hurts me when I read/hear anything that could (even possibly) resemble body shame. Don’t default to embarrassment, default to empowerment. Sex is a tricky road for lots of people to navigate, and in my experience the only thing that makes it less weird is…
In fact it’s more like a bunch of tribes, and often each group brings their prejudices from mainstream society and where they were raised
Deodarant and toothbrushes!! We always need those! Diapers if it’s a women and children’s shelter, especially sizes 4 and 5. And always, always, always underwear in sealed packages.
Ha! Fair enough. Defense of the indefensible seemed applicable to me here, but perhaps your gif says it all.
It sounds like some Jezzy writers are moonlighting for tech companies. Way to double down on some bullshit Peeple!
Love it! This is a HUGE deal. I remember when I felt like FINALLY my skin color was acceptable for being considered “beautiful.” Ms. Beyonce strolled in and all of a sudden I felt like it was ok to be brown. My brother, a slightly darker chocolate, says the same thing about Wesley Snipes. Before Mr. Snipes it was only…
MY HUSBAND!!
I OWN IT ON DVD!!! Best purchase I ever made. Took me straight back to elementary school, banana board skateboards, and cardboard on the drive way trying to practice my moves.
PREACH
TY. My boyfriend always cheers me up!
Yeah the 969 Movement is super bizarre, but I have to add one important distinction. I have friends that told me they had to move to the US to become Buddhist, meaning that what is known in the west as the religion of Buddhism is merely a culture or a way of life for them in their homeland. In this context the…
Good looking out though! People only learn from being told.
You’re preaching to the choir. I’m black.
Perhaps what you’re missing is that I’m not trying to “make a case,” I was only explaining WHY I don’t like titles. I also employed my background and experiences to provide context as to why I maybe don’t like them. I don’t really know what to tell you, if you grew up in PDX feeling like social customs and traditions…
