What makes you think I’m hetero? (also “a LGBT people” - I know you can’t fix kinja comments after a certain point but I just find that so funny- are you all of those things? This is why I use queer to describe a single person. Calling a single person “LGBT” is nonsense since you can’t be lesbian, gay, and bisexual at…

“Dear Muslimah” was part of a toxic masculinity controversy (Elevatorgate) in the Atheist /Skeptic community. In 2011., After Rebecca Watson mildly suggested that getting harassed in the elevator by a creep at a convention wasn’t a high point of the event and basically said, “this was inappropriate... guys, don’t do…

No worries. It’s basically when people (especially western people, and most especially western men- although conservative women and sex-negative/secondwave liberal women will do it too) use the treatment of women in Asian and Middle Eastern countries to shut down conversations about misogyny that are too close to home…

What is “Dear Muslimah”? I haven’t heard of it; I googled it but could not find anything - could you perhaps just point me in the right direction?  I’m not asking you to educate me or anything - just want to know where I can go to learn more about this.

The Japanese man and his mother killed me. The nervousness of telling her, and her shame at having a real moment where she felt she failed him, and he’s just like “I understand this is a change, I just want my mom.” It was eyeopening how universal the fear of coming out still is. 

He was also a closeted gay jihadist - which is definitely the exception and not the rule in America AFAIK.

There are definitely fiery people that let will try to fight people no matter their size... so even if P!nk could be her ass I don’t think that would have stopped her. It’s all probably a hazy memory though. Much like my early twenties.

I had never heard of the series, saw it while browsing channels several years ago, we binged all 4 (all that was out at the time) of them right the and there.

I heard it was because Pink slut-shamed her. They were 20 and 21 back then though, and both seem to have matured since then.

When it comes to foreigners or differing religious ideologies, bigots generally want them to go somewhere else or be subservient. When it comes to differing sexuality or gender identities, bigots want them exterminated.

She’s so great. Sadly her erudition and empathy will go flying over hardcore right wingers, but it’s still great to hear her speak the truth. I hate Trump, but Pence is worse. Trump is a narcissist who is easily manipulated. Pence uses religion as a battering ram to deny the people who don’t share his beliefs their…

Christina knows she swung on P!nk at one time or another. No straight denial? that shit happened.

I used to catch her show Gaycation on Vice and it was great. There was one episode where she went to Iowa in 2015 and confronted Ted Cruz on his anti-LGBTQ bullshit and it was beautiful. She’s a treasure. 

Ellen Page is one of my favorites. Just an amazing human being.

I watched this interview last night and loved every minute of it.  I am going to have to start following and supporting more of what Ellen Page does.

Ellen Page is a delight and I appreciate her continually acknowledging her privilege and continually speaking up. The rise in hate crimes since November 2016 is no fucking coincidence.

Ellen Page is great.  Guys, I only recently saw Whip It for the first time and it was so great.

Mike Pence is a backwards asswipe in a JC Penney suit.

Yeah...came here to say the same thing. That’s A LOT of botox and A LOT of fillers. That face is giving me day terrors. Every time I think(at 39) maybe a little work on my face wouldn’t be so bad, good god I’ll just look at that mess. Terrifying. It’s like a Christina Aguilera mask for The Purge.

Her pain was painful to watch. She’s absolutely right and the facts of violence against LGBTQ or any minority group member is still rising. I know that ignorance and particularly the ignorant practice of religion play into this but I still just don’t get it.  Same for the so-called “right to life” single issue…
