#sex stereotypes

The quoted tweet:

They are....so close to getting it.

Instead of letting go of "being feminine enough", they just stick their head further into the sex stereotype extremes (and anyone who doesn't tick off "enough" of the right boxes for either "gender" should ID as an amorphous paper doll????)

But sure this isn't reinforcing sex stereotypes and the gender roles that have been forced on us. 🤡

''Omg !!! Women have the right to wear pants ?! This is MaScULiNe ApPrOpRiAtIoN !! 😱 What the police do about it?? Arrest those women !"

It's 2023 can we please figure out that asexuality isn't synonymous with sex repulsion already. Lack of attraction and lack of libido are not the same thing, aces can be "hell yes" about sex itself, and a lack of "hell yes" is not the same as active repulsion. I'm not a big movie watcher, but if someone I care about wants to share a movie with me I'll do it for them and very likely enjoy myself even if it doesn't turn me into someone who actively likes movies. It's not difficult.

Yellow = yellow

Bananas are yellow, does this mean that yellow = banana?

No, yellow = yellow

Yellow =/= banana, does this mean bananas aren't yellow?

Lemons are yellow, does this mean lemon = banana?

Lemon =/= banana, does this mean lemons aren't yellow?

Some apples are yellow, does this mean yellow = apple?

Some apples are red or green, does this mean apples can't be yellow?

Some apples are red, some apples are yellow, does this mean red = yellow?

Lemons and apples are round but bananas aren't, does this mean bananas aren't yellow?

Apples and bananas are sweet, does this mean lemon's aren't sour? Or that sourness is bad?

Bananas, lemons, and apples are fruit, does this mean mustard isn't yellow?

No, yellow = yellow

A category groups things that share a commonality despite their differences. The differences coexist within that commonality without redefining the category.

Other similarities coexist within, and without, the commonality without redefining the category either. The fact that it doesn't redefine the category does not mean those similarities don't hold significance of their own.

If not for the commonality, it wouldn't be a category. If not for the differences, it wouldn't be a category either.

Okay? Cool

Asexuality = experiencing little to no sexual attraction

As ALWAYS. Same with clothes, they can have practical ones while girls have to be pretty for others even if it restrict them. 💀

'Luther is aroace so doesn't have sex', 'Luther is the horniest man alive' NO NO THERE'S A THIRD BETTER OPTION

Luther is aroace by human standards but loves making his cats happy, so is more than comfortable to pet them and give them affection

He finds it adorable when they react to physical stimuli (including sexual) so helps them with that when they need it :(

He's done so much research about bdsm related stuff for them because, let's be honest, Nyon's freak is unmatchable and he thinks it's cute

Don't you realize that male and female are social constructs? They're ideas. Scientists don't even believe biological sex is a thing anymore, we're all just people. Gender is almost like religion, it can change, some people are really sure on theirs and others aren't, forcing someone into one is always wrong. Do you know why you're cis? Do you ever think about the possibility that you're not, about what it would be like to be something other then what you were born as. Would you still feel like a woman if you didn't have a womb, if you didn't have breasts or genitals or estrogen? It was a combination of contemplating these things, and mystical experiences with the goddess Hel that got me to realize I was agender. I thought I would lose certain things when becoming nonbinary and genderless, but I didn't. I don't know about you, but know you can be happy as an enby or a boy, you can be loved, and cherished and comforted as an enby or as a boy. I don't know if you're nonbinary like I am. You might find you really do identify with womanhood, but if you do really want to be a woman, then know that that's the same feeling amab women have. I know what it's like to think the way you do, I used to think that way, and I've had bad experiences with men and with the expectations society has for people with bodies like mine. But you don't have to take your pain and call it womanhood.

I'm not cis.

I didn't choose to be a woman.

I don't identify as a woman.

I don't feel like a woman.

I simply am a woman.

And being a woman isn't a social construct or an idea.

Being a woman is a biological reality.

I was born with a female body. That's a fact. It's not something I can change.

Saying that scientists don't believe in biological sex is a blatant lie. I can't believe that it needs to be said, but male and female bodies differ not only on the outside. We get affected by different conditions & illnesses. We have different immune systems. We have different pain levels. We have different hormones & health issues related to them. We respond differently to drugs and their dosages. Not to mention our reproductive systems and everything related to them. Our bodies are far away from being just a concept.

Being a woman in itself doesn't make me happy or unhappy. Just like being white & Polish doesn't make me happy or unhappy. Those are just facts about me.

And being a woman doesn't mean that I have to look or act in a specific way. What is womanhood for you if you think that males can identify with it? Is it about wearing dresses and makeup and acting silly? If a man does that then he's a woman? And if a woman doesn't do that then she's not a woman? It's absurd.

If you claimed that one can identify with a specific race by acting & looking in a specific way, everyone would (rightfully) say that it's offensive. Racial stereotypes are not okay, but gender stereotypes are fine & valid? Both sex and race are in the same category of material reality.

Being a woman doesn't determine who I am as a person. Being a woman is not a personality trait, just as race isn't. I don't have to do certain things so I can call myself a woman. There are no certain things one can do in order to "become" a woman.

But being a woman does shape my position in society and it also shapes yours, whether you like it or not. You can identify as whatever you want. It doesn't change the fact that society sees you as a woman. You can't identify out of oppression. You can't stop identifying with pay gap. You can't stop identifying with your reproductive rights being taken away. You can't stop identifying with the fact that women are being raped and killed by men everywhere, everyday. Women in Afghanistan can't stop identifying with the education ban.

Goddess Hel won't help you once men decide to take your rights away. Identifying as agender won't either. Stop being delusional for your own sake before reality slaps you in the face.

[intersexfairy]

people are discriminated against - sometimes violently - for their sex traits. but not in whatever fucked up and bigotted way radfems mean that. sex and gender are different things, despite people acting as otherwise.

and there is no set of privileged sex traits. it's all dependent on what traits an individual has/doesn't have, how they identify/express themselves, and how they're perceived. any one of those things being "off" can lead to discrimination in relation to sex traits.

so as a trans intersex person, i sincerely wish this is what "sex based discrimination" referred to. it's something anyone can experience, and it's not fucking fair the phrase is taken on by bigots pretending to be fighting for women's rights.

That's what I call range

[thequeenofsastiel]

I definitely think too many sex scenes can get boring and take away from the plot, but I do hope that we get a Fadelstyle sex scene after they've fallen in love and everything is out in the open and Fadel has forgiven Style for manipulating him. Because the first sex scene was nice, sure, but it was very much solely about sex. There was no emotion attached to it beyond desire(and a little bit of Fadel wanting to do this so that Style will leave him alone and also so that he can get Style out of his system). I want a sex scene that's about the love and trust and understanding they have for each other(and maybe is a bit more kinky because they've gotten to explore their kink desires with each other). I want to see love combined with desire.

HELLO WHAT THE SHIT IS THIS MY LADY JANE TRAILER

[redditreceipts]

I mean they KNOW that they are just men going into lesbian spaces. If you confront them to their face, they will deny it, but any chance they get to tell women that they are boring normal straight men with a lesbian fetish and a fetish to intrude upon women's spaces, they will use it. They will rub it into your face. This is the top comment under the post, and I will never, ever understand the absolutely self-degrading and self-humiliating bootlicking behaviour of the women who think that these thoroughly misogynistic guys are the same as them

[itsawritblr]

10 years from now this is going to be schadenfreude hilarious. The tr@ns trend will have faded and these two will be so cringe they won't get work except in some pathetic "Where Are They Now/Anyone Remember [name]?" freak show.

Stats already show that kids who'll be the Class of 2025 are rejecting this bullshit. Other stats show even fewer will ID as anything other than male and female.

god didn't give me a penis because they knew i would get hard over a really good meal
