I used to volunteer at a school where the little girls were the same way. It was a completely different dynamic, though. As you say, children are tactile and curious. White adults touching black adults' hair have bad manners at best...and arguably, they have a sense of privilege and power that makes them think it is…

Oh dear God. I had never heard of that before, and that is horrible.

Ha, redacted a long comment because I realized what I said wasn't true. Anyway, I think constant posts about workouts and such can come off like incessant bragging. Which is fine if it's your intention to brag, of course.

Hooray! Nice work!

I've seen some stupid book titles in my lifetime, but this is really one of the stupidest.

Oh! OK then. No one's getting fake-killed today!

When my nephew was little he liked to go around singing that song. It was adorable. :)

Yeah, even if it wasn't transphobic and just stupid, it would be a terrible ad. Don't sell the dubious benefits of menstruation. Sell the damn product.

That's amazing.

Eh, we'll see.

I wrote a poem for the people who did this. Maybe it sucks, whatever, I just wrote it.

I used to be the womaniest woman of all because I bled nonstop for years! Then I had my uterus taken out.

Unbreakable was really good. Though I expected it to be good, actually.

Well, that's my point of view. I don't have much philosophical grounding in these issues at all, but that makes sense to me.
