i just don’t bother with capitalisation because i’m lazy and don’t like the shift key.

i’m one of those crazy people who think that even fantasies should have limits, though. as in, i think it is possible to fantasise about unhealthy things like hurting people, and if one feels a pull to such fantasies one should resist that pull and not feed the fetish and make it stronger. because some of those people…

presumably he’s wrestled lots of other guys and had full body contact with them, so there’s no reason why he shouldn’t be able to wrestle another person if he would just choose to see her as another person to wrestle.  but let’s be real, he’s just afraid of how it will look if he loses.

also, i did lie a bit about my identity--i’m technically not 40 til september of this year.  so i’m actually a 39yo canadian woman.

i don’t know if you’ve noticed this, but some sites autocorrect and take one space out if you type two between sentences.  sometimes kinja does this and sometimes it doesn’t.  but kinja formatting in general is full of bugs.

yes i do because that’s how i was taught punctuation.  it was a standard for a long time.  when i was in college 20 years ago it was still used.

pro tip: feminists don’t hate you because you’re a soldier.  they hate you because you’re a sexist dick.

i put two spaces after a period because i was taught to write that way. i’m a 40 year old canadian woman.

i very recently rewatched and it turns out even twenty years after the fact it really stands up to the test of time. still a great show and somehow even more relevant now then it was then, worth revisiting.

um, belle means beauty.  beauty is the english translation.  it’s the same.

omg, you’re still spelling “shamed” incorrectly. i can’t have a reasonable conversation with you about this, you’re too fragile.

i’m not feminine because i’ve just never felt feminine, even when i was a toddler i was playing with boys toys and dressing like a boy and as a small child my chosen playfellows were boys because i preferred playing their types of games rather than the sort of games girls liked to play, like “house”. i’m sorry it’s so…

you said gay men are all effeminate--i said if that were true there would be no such phenomenon as bears, which are gays that are big and hairy and butch.  so yes, definitely related directly to what you said.

hey julio--fuck you.

the word is “shame” and “shamed”.

honey, bears are a thing. and not a small minority thing either. my best friend is gay and not effeminate (not that there would be anything wrong with that). i’m a straight woman and not very feminine.

what about those of us who don’t “house” anyone in our bodies?  we exist too.

it makes me feel like i don’t exist because i’m a woman with an imperfect body who isn’t a mother, so i don’t have an excuse for how i look except just being a human who aged.

because it excludes from the conversation women who have imperfect bodies who don’t have babies to show for it.

the problem is though this conversation completely leaves out women who struggle with body acceptance who aren’t mothers.
