#shoutout to :re for having a trans guy though

[windcarvedlyre]

Oh my god, my tag on the last reblog got me thinking.

Komahina Tokyo Ghoul AU. Hinata signs up to body enhancement experiments without being fully informed of the risks and ends up becoming a half-ghoul with one permanently red eye, struggling to hide his new dietary requirements from the CCG. Komaeda as a weirdass but lonely actual ghoul that helps him adjust after a messy start to their friendship. Nanami as a human friend of his that ends up friends with Hinata too, mediating the two so they're at each others' throats less. Maybe she throws blood bags at them in emergencies.

Am I cooking? Should I expand this?

The post about "we need feminism because there's a men's rights movement in LGBT" is from radfems. "Baeddelations" has a pinned post about being a baeddel, "men's rights" in this context pretty much means trans men speaking about being trans men. (I'm not denying issues in the community but I know you've wanted it pointing out when you've missed dogwhistles before, and the post is all very thinly veilled references.)

I did some looking into this, because I was not familiar with the term "baeddel."For anyone else who didn't know: It's an Old English word generally meaning "effeminate or castrated man" as far as I can tell, and some transfem people adopted it primarily back in the 2010s (although some still use it, like the user in question). Baeddels in the modern sense claim to focus on transmisogyny and trans women's issues...but as you say, some can lapse into prejudice against trans men. To the point where, while it doesn't seem like they ALL hold that view, it has become one of the most prominent things about the movement. Kind of like radfems and transphobia. The poster in question seemed, when I looked through their blog, to come down in the middle- there were some comments that raised my eyebrows, but not as extreme as things I saw on other blogs.

I went back and forth about what to do re: the post in question, though. Because I don't want to be associated with hatred of trans men, since. You know. I don't hate trans men. However, I do feel that the modern left, and even the LGBT community, believes misogyny has been fixed and refuses to examine the undercurrents thereof that women in these circles still struggle with.

(Trans men can be misogynistic. NB people can be misogynistic. Anyone can be misogynistic, and the community letting misogynistic people off the hook because they're not cis men, or the expectation thereof, is a real issue that I have witnessed/experienced IRL. Shoutout to the trans guy who insisted I let him do everything for me out in public, and got mad when I didn't want to, because it "made him feel more masculine" so I should apparently just shut up and act helpless, for example.)

(There's also been a lot of "not all men" going around in response to women expressing frustration with the bullshit we face for our gender, which is like. Come on. I thought we all figured out in the 2010s that no-one sensible is talking about LITERALLY all men; we just shouldn't be expected to water down our anger to make men comfortable. Tacking "but what about trans men?" onto that doesn't negate the entire rest of the conversation.)

I disagree that the post is "all thinly veiled references" because it looks like most people reblogging it are like me- folks who aren't familiar with that term but feel that there's a still a misogyny issue in progressive and queer spaces. However, because of the association with a specific movement I am not part of and largely disagree with an apparent key point of, I will be deleting it.

Do not mistake this for me recanting my personal sentiments on the matter. There is a misogyny problem in my community, because the misogyny problem in broader society remains. Trans men and NB people are not exempt from being misogynistic. This needs to be talked about, and it is deeply frustrating to me as a queer woman.

Do I even have to say "this is not for t*rfs?" Well, just in case, it is Not. Fuck off.

So I've been playing through the beginning of the wrath of the righteous crpg that just released and it's... weird. Part of it is because I had the adventure path books like 6 years ago and read through all of it then, so I have a minor level of stuff to compare in my head, but also because I kind of dramatically grew as a person re: rpg stuff and DND in particular. Not gonna spoil anything, although I'm likely to keep posting about it so I'll put a note in the tags just in case, but...

Pathfinder moved somewhat away from the bullshit of old-school 3.0/3.5/4e dnd in a lot of ways but there's still a lot of the bizarre genetic essentialism and really uncomfortable parallels being made to real-world ethnic groups (shoutout to the guy who created the continent of mwangi for his only understanding of africa apparently being congo by michael crichton), and I know that 2nd ed pathfinder did a lot of work to address THAT, but WotR still has a LOT of really uncomfortable moments.

and at the end of the day, I think what really bothers me is that CRPGs as a whole aren't really comparable to ttrpgs because the level of freedom and interaction is always going to be limited by file size, creator imagination, authorial intent, and natch, money. And, most crpgs spend their biggest efforts on combat and gameplay and tend to tack dialogue and character interactions on almost as an afterthought - I think pillars of eternity 2 was the best I've seen the system implemented, and nothing else has really met that standard since. And that's okay! It'd be almost a fool's errand to try and implement that in a crpg to anything close to the level a basic ttrpg could do, but then it basically feels like half of your character creation is superfluous or unnecessary because like, the game is designed around the combat. You have one character with a persuasion or diplomacy equivalent skill, and everything else is either for exploration or combat and that's it.

I guess it's just frustrating to have been like, 5+ years without a real ttrpg game in my life so I'm using crpgs to substitute and it's not at all the same experience, and yet I KNOW that it could be because I own the fuckin' adventure path and have planned how to run it in the past. Or maybe what I mean to say is like, i know what this recipe tastes like homemade, and the storebought mass-produced version is something completely different even though it's supposed to be the same.

I dunno, I'm only a few hours in and honestly, it's pretty good! I can genuinely recommend it as a crpg, and I know from kingmaker that the studio a) creates quality work and puts in the time on writing and b) patches and bugfixes like crazy unlike a lot of other studios that make crpgs.

Oh, but one thing I will say - I remember the adventure path being a lot more progressive about this shit from like, fuckin' TWENTY-THIRTEEN. They had a trans lesbian in their game like it weren't no thing, and WotR in 2021 feels a little like a step back, again because of weird genetic essentialism undertones as well as the tendency to equate fantasy religions to christianity to the point that one character prays to her goddess to forgive her sins etc and another character talks about seeking forgiveness from his god re: his terrible decisions in the past and it's like... y'all know that not all religions are christianity, right? And i say that as a white dude raised super fuckin' christian! Maybe it's silly but it makes me feel skeezy when a character starts spouting the sort of shit I have heard almost verbatim in a southern baptist church but here it's okay because it's regarding literal actual demons?

At least Anevia is still a lesbian, here's hoping they didn't walk back her being trans.

@littlemeangreen I”m a dumbass who somehow forgot you asked for a FABIAN AND SHAW CHILD and designed you a Jennifer/Shaw one at work yesterday, SORRY. I’ll still give you the one you asked for, but CONSIDER THIS A BONUS Name: Clover Sue Shaw Gender: Trans woman General Appearance: 6’5 on her own, 6’8 in her specially reinforced heels. Very muscular but not beyond a certain point; if she gets bulkier than that, it triggers dysphoria. Voluminous black hair with a slight wave and a green streak, and the prettiest pair of hazel eyes you ever did see. Carved jawline with a delicate chin. Unlike her mom, she always wears shoes and they’re always pretty. Absolutely SENSATIONAL smile. Personality: Vivacious and congenial, Clover was an adventurous child who withdrew into insecurity and hermithood during adolescence when her body got really big, but re-blossomed into her current open, sunny disposition after transitioning. She’s now every bit the “Sensational She-Hulk��� her mother was, with the bouncy energy to take on anything with a smile and keep swinging with the same. Clover knows she’s intimidating and her size/appearance/the reputation of a Hulk can put people on edge, so she’s very invested in making a good impression and putting people immediately at ease with her. She believes in reaching out and fostering goodwill, and she takes it upon herself to be the first to do so, even if someone doesn’t look the friendliest---especially then, in fact! Sure, you could tell her that’s not her responsibility, but she feels like it is. Same as how she feels like she needs to hide it when she’s down. Yes, she’s got a bright happy personality, but everyone has dark moods sometimes. But Clover feels like she should cover it up when she does, because she remembers how worried her mother and other loved ones were when she was so depressed and unhappy as a teen. And every time she acts down again, she can see that those same loved ones, who remember it, are getting worried she’s about to slide back into that state again. And she doesn’t want them to worry. So Clover feels that she has to pretend she’s never having a bad day, or else it’s her fault making everyone else fret. Which isn’t to say that her happy demeanor is fake---it’s not. Most of the time. It is how she REALLY is. Just, it’s also how she feels she HAS to be sometimes. She just doesn’t want anyone to feel bad on her account ever, in any way! Clover is easily bored and always needs some exciting new stimulation, be it mental or physical. Because of this, she’s always trying some new daredevil skill or looking up some esoteric topic, and she’s acquired quite a lot of good stories and diverse knowledge. She has a naturally interrogative mind, and it’s in her nature to analyze everything and ask questions, always asking why a plan, building, robot, rule, statement, whatever, is the way it is, what’s the purpose of this, why was this constructed this way, and so on. She’s extremely detail-oriented and picks up on a lot of things that most people miss. It’s made her indispensable at superheroing because she can find the weak spots in strategies, ways inside “impenetrable” buildings, the most subtle of missing links or hidden hints. She’s far, FAR more than the dumb muscle cliche for sure! Special Talents: Honestly, loads. As mentioned, she’s always trying new things and learning random stuff, so it’s almost a running joke that it’s IC for her to just be like “oh yeah I know the history of zombies in cinema” or “of course I can Egyptian stick-fight” or “yeah teeth-blackening was considered beautiful in Japan until the end of the Meiji period” or “what you DON’T know how styrofoam is made?” or “yeah I can play the theremin” Just all kinds of shit. But one thing she’s NEVER managed to do is work a combination lock. She just. . . .can’t. Who they like better: Jenn, she and her mom are best friends and talk all the time, though I think she still has a more positive view of her father than she should Who they take after more: Jenn for sure Personal Head canon: - Clover actually is a morning person, but very specifically bright sunny mornings at around 10 AM with a leisurely breakfast of black coffee and a simple pastry - Speaking of pastries, she always brings donuts to meetings---superheroes, business, just friends meeting up-- and they’re always from small family-owned bakeries, never chains - Absolutely despises herself for secretly liking paisley print - Her skin is impervious to tattoos, which allows her to endlessly fantasize about what she WOULD get if she COULD without ever having to actually commit - Loves Lorde’s music, which is retro by the time she’s listening to it - She has a brother, Walter Shaw. I couldn’t get rid of the idea of “Walter” being her name, as a shoutout to her mother’s surname, but I had already decided she was a trans woman. So I was like, ok, that’s her deadname I guess. But Walter himself became a character in my head instead. Like her, he’s a medium-tone white guy with black hair and a single green forelock, and HE’S a very intense business guy. Not as evil as Shaw but still intimidating and shady. He’s also very very big, but not as big as she is, and most people don’t realize he isn’t a normal bulky human in a black business suit. Face Claim: N/A

(urgent/before Friday if possible) Sorry this is kinda nsfw/not strictly related but I'm 18, a trans guy, and in my first relationship. My bf knows I'm trans and that I have social communication issues and sensory issues. He's been great. We're planning to have sex, and I sort of don't know the protocol/what in doing? We've talked about it and stuff but even so. I feel very much I do not know anything really. Thanks

I’m gonna put this under a cut in hopes the Tumblrbots don’t come in and pixelate the blog for being Too En Es Eff Double-ewe :P I’m also gonna get super personal and uhhh descriptive in here so this is also a way for folks who’re squicked out by sex talk to avoid it.

So it’s good that you’ve talked about it a bit already! The most important thing I think is to keep talking about it the whole way through.

When I first had sex with my ex, we talked about it a bit beforehand, specifically (and since you mention you’re a trans guy this is super apt) where I was and was not comfortable being penetrated. (And also since you mentioned that you’re trans but not that he is I’m gonna assume he has a penis but if not and you’re using toys or strap-ons or whatever feel free to ignore my aggressive insistence on condoms! Although if you plan on switching between orifices or sharing toys then still use condoms on them, makes clean-up a breeze to boot!) Make sure you both know where the other stands on things like PIV, anal, oral, and also make sure you’re both comfortable with the idea of changing your mind. It’s always okay to change your mind after you’ve started!

Oh and before I forget: CONDOMS AND LUBE (water-based ONLY, silicone-based lube destroys latex condoms EDIT: Silicone-based destroyed silicone toys, OIL-based destroys condoms (shoutout to @hylianderp, ‘twas I who derped out there). Water-based is still the all-around safest but do note it has to be re-applied more frequently as it absorbs into the skin faster!). We didn’t use condoms, and even through we didn’t do PIV it still could have ended very badly. Semen loves to wander. Make sure you have both and that they’re used properly - condoms always get changed between orifices and between ejaculations. And don’t go stingy on the lube, especially if you’re doing anal. Applying lube is a bit like gathering firewood: Decide how much you think you need, and then double that amount. Re-apply it halfway through if things start to hurt. There’s no such thing as too much.

Also, I suggest you lay down a towel or something, and keep washcloths or tissues handy. Messes happen! And also, for that matter, funny sounds happen, and clumsiness happens. Sex can make you laugh and that’s a good thing.

Now, some people say your first time’s “supposed” to hurt, some people say it’s “never” supposed to hurt, I say there’s a middle ground. See, the first time I had sex with my ex was The First Time I Had Sex, and even though I’d masturbated with toys before, and even though we spent, gods, a solid 15, 20 minutes on foreplay with a lot of, ehh, finger action, fact of the matter is he was pretty well-endowed and yeah, when he put it in me, it hurt! The important thing, I think, is I made sure he knew it hurt, he took it out, we spent some more time with fingers, we added more lube, and the next time he put it in it didn’t hurt. Success! It’s a balancing act your first time, there’s no way to know for sure if it’ll hurt beforehand, but the important thing is that, if it hurts, you stop, redo some steps, and try again in 5 minutes.

If you know you may well have issues communicating verbally, make sure your partner knows he’ll have to be extra attentive. At one point my ex moved me into a position that really hurt but I couldn’t make myself speak so I just sort of.. made some urgent squeaking sounds? Which was enough to make him stop and ask if I was okay, and without that sensory bombardment I was able to answer and we found a different position that felt good.

And that’s the main thing, it should feel good, for both of you! You should both check in on the other regularly, but especially whoever’s in control (which isn’t necessarily the person penetrating depending on position). If it hurts at any point, for either of you, slam on the breaks, back up, figure out where it went wrong, and turn left at Albuquerque.

I also asked a pal who’s a Certified Top if he had any tips on communication, and here’s some very good advice he had to say on the matter:

I mean good communication is good communication. I can only speak for myself but I want to know what feels good for my partner, not just in terms of a “that’s good, that’s not good” but like “that’s good but what could make it BETTER is…”

I think there’s a weird idea a lot of people have that basically if you’re not topping you’re just supposed to… be somehow less involved. That it’s centered around whoever is topping and that’s just untrue and unhealthy.

And you should have fun! If you’re not having fun, there’s no point in doing it. The first few times it’s all about figuring what you like, what’s the most fun for you and for them, what you don’t find particularly fun. I learned that day that I don’t find it fun at all to give blowjobs, and so I did not finish giving that one. You’re very much allowed to not finish what you’ve started.

And finally, two very important points:

You may not orgasm your first time, or even your first few times. That’s fine, it’s normal, you’re still learning about yourself and about each other! It’s very lovely to have one, but it’s not the be-all end-all. The journey should be just as rewarding as the finish.

However, if he comes, you come. End of. If he gets to have that moment he damn well better make sure you get to. The clitoris isn’t an enigma, it has a little 1-2cm shaft and a cute little mushroom head and even gets erect just like a penis and it deserved to be stroked too, gods damn it!

Actually, speaking of that lil mushroom buddy, I have one more tip, as weird as it might sound: Grab a handheld mirror, tuck away in a bathroom, and get a good look at your clitoris. It’s not widely talked about, because sex educators want them to be an enigma, but for such a small thing clitores have quite some variety, and it could play a big role in how much you enjoy that sex you’re about to have. Larger clitores are, unsurprisingly, usually easier to work with, as are ones with smaller hoods (more direct stimulation after all). Get a little self-love sesh in and pay close attention to what motions feel good, what don’t feel like much at all, how that changes as you get more aroused and your clitoris gets engorged, and get ready to relay all that info to your partner.

So that’s pretty much the advice I could think of over the course of a couple hours! Just remember: have fun, communicate in whatever ways you can (but make sure to do it consistently), and if you need to stop for any reason you should always be free to do so. This goes for every time, not just the first time.

-Brother Cat

ETA: Some further good advice in the replies!

@cesium-sheep:

personally I find it useful to have at least one of my hands on my partner, since it gives him that many more signals to pick up on and it helps give me a grounding point. just a little additional thing that may help. 

@rattycastle:

If you get like me and go semi or non-verbal with a lot of sensory stuff, good or bad, tell him beforehand. A safe word is good even for vanilla stuff, like letting him know you're ok even if you cant talk

These two tips go hand-in-hand very well! A safe word doesn’t necessarily have to be an Actual Word, it can be a specific gesture, a rhythm tapped on a wall or headboard, a “Squeeze my fingers once for go, twice for stop” sort of thing, anything you can come up with and remember in the moment.

Keep an eye on the notes, I’m sure there’ll be a few more good tips!

IDW Halloween Cards

Happy Halloween Folks! 

(I'll add the rest below the blogpost)

I thought I’d have some fun with IDW/Classical Liberal Halloween cards. There's so many more I could have done, but alas...I didn't have that much time. If you want to join in the fun...make one and tweet it to me @nicemangos :) 

Anyway - a clarification for the pedants: I use the terms IDW/Classical Lib to describe them, their dogmatic fans and the figures who hover around them....the Quillette, 'But what about anti-white racism' types...

...So it's not limited to the amazing bigbrained peeps mentioned in Bari Weiss' LOL-worthy article (featuring pictures of them jerking off trees or hiding in bushes)....you know the one i'm talking about. 

Why is it important to mock this pretentious circle-jerk as often as possible, you ask? I'll give you a quick rundown, even though I could write a bit on each central figure here, I just don't have the time to delve in that deep at the moment. 

Simply put though, its because they're pushing some dangerous ideas and providing cover for dangerous people. In a new, repackaged & polished format this isn't immediately recognizable to some.

They're driven by a strongly anti-left agenda, while often simultaneously claiming they are on the left ...or at least ‘not right wing’ (though they do have their more open RW types like Ben Shapiro/JBP, but I believe even Peterson has denied being a conservative), 

It's this dishonesty and attempt to mask what they're really pushing for that concerns me. 

I find it's almost better to deal with an open right wing, anti-immigrant type than to deal with a sophist covering their tracks every step of the way, leaving room for plausible deniability, while being an apologist for similar issues. 

In this era of a resurgent far-right and rising hate crimes.... this 'totally-not-right-wing' crew still focus their energies on the left while downplaying the dangers of the far right. 

Anything random campus SJWs do will be an outrage and indicative of the 'rot on the left'... but when it comes down to calling out Milo Yiannopolous, even after he's exposed for being a pedophilia apologist...there will be excuses.... deflections - even if it means pointing the finger at fictional plays and then realizing that your example is ridiculous. 

There will be reminders that Milo was smart and charismatic (they'll say they are no fans, of course!)...but even in the face of him defending sex with minors there will be 'he doesn't deserve this... let's wish him well and hope he can leverage his charm into a new life' type apologetics.   

I remember this too. Cringe. I genuinely don't understand how u can have this attitude towards some of the worst ppl around, but feminists and campus sjws just don't get that kind of sympathy and understanding. https://t.co/U3WkJ0SwUE pic.twitter.com/zcNjk0CiwP

— Eiynah --- (@NiceMangos) January 12, 2018

Or at best, they'll say Milo can't be far right because he's gay and flamboyant, Jewish and has a black boyfriend . They'll dismiss him as a mere troll...justify his outrage at the 'liberal media bias'...and complain about his Twitter Ban. Or defend him using Breitbart articles. 

They'll be happy to threaten to quit Patreon over banning White identitarian Lauren Southern...meanwhile portraying her to their massive audiences as a mere 'conservative journalist'.  When it comes time to call her out, or state a solid opinion on an obvious extremist like Robert Spencer or... Tommy Robinson - if it's not blatant apologetics (like Rubin's where he literally positions Tommy as *Extremely Moderate*,

Rubin says Tommy Robinson strikes him as "extremely moderate". Tommy Robinson confirmed for The New Center™ pic.twitter.com/rm7rem1y15

— Tom Bloke (@21logician) March 2, 2017

...the best you'll get is a shrug and a claim that they 'just don't know enough' to make a judgement on him (while they retweet flawed defences of him).

Even in the wake of serious incidents like more than a dozen pipe bombs being mailed to Trump’s critics their priorities do not shift from the dangers of sjws and The Left.  They will minimize RW terror threats even, referring to them as "minor events"/a few malicious jerks...

Once again the press gets gamed, giving saturation coverage and agonized commentary to a minor event. It's not major news that a country of 325m has a few malicious jerks who (correctly) anticipate 15 minutes of notoriety with a vindictive stunt. https://t.co/zXnBJXCqdB

— Steven Pinker (@sapinker) October 25, 2018

But compare that with the wording you often see about The Left, 'Devouring it's Children' .. oh nooo: 

If not that, there's a general AllLivesMatter-ification, that really endears them and makes them very useful to the far right

I did a more detailed thread on Pinker here

Another Amazing take in response to the Pipe bombs was telling people we shouldn't make it 'costly to consider conspiracy' FFS

You kicked up a lot of dust, tried to tie me to Trump, to Alex Jones and to various claims that I've never made, but in the end you avoid my only point: If we make it costly to consider conspiracy, we hand power to those who would conspire, placing the honorable at their mercy. https://t.co/dvB1Mi6pg5

— Bret Weinstein (@BretWeinstein) October 26, 2018

Only the most Rational takes from the IDW, I tell ya. And while we're on the topic of conspiracies...who can forget the classic Rubin moment, when he claimed there's a necessary space for Infowars:

Dave Rubin says there's a "necessary space" for Infowars because mainstream media is bad pic.twitter.com/k9o1HW62nX

— Tom Bloke (@21logician) April 17, 2017

------

Those that follow this cheerful group closely, know full well how often they whitewash troubling views/figures ...or delete criticism of them if it happens to come up. 

It’s about joining hands with those radicalizing young men, with those who fear monger about immigrants, and the whiteness levels of London being too low (aka the far right conspiracy of 'white genocide') - its about giving these things more credibility in the mainstream, and helping to justify and rationalize people’s bigotries while making big bucks. 

It’s about amplifying the "#metoo has gone too far" message, about how women have it better and if they don't have power it's because they don't want to have more power,

  Support for publications like Quillette who publish garbage that’s indistinguishable from salafist mullahs at times, is not hard to come by in these 'Dark 'intellectual' parts of the web'.

What these IDW-type RationalSkeptic movements are about is pushing back against those who want equality, and those who want to minimize racism and sexism. 

It's about the maintenance of social hierarchies and the status quo. 

They often find a token minority person to champion 'controversial' views, so they can serve as a shield from criticism and accusations of bigotry. 

It’s also about proclaiming ....loudly... how identity politics is bad, but using identity politics at the drop of a hat when it suits you. 

Its about criticizing people who use the word racist, but using it happily yourself whenever it suits you. 

Casually accusing groups of people of having the intellectual and moral integrity of the KKK even, 

There you go. Sam Harris compares Salon and Vox journalists to the KKK. pic.twitter.com/hc6hRtmxFc

— IDW Misrepresenter (@aiizavva) June 15, 2018

It’s about discrediting the media as Rubin does with his Infowars support and CNN/MSM hate, and about discrediting entire educational fields too (Peterson has declared entire fields of study 'corrupt' because of postmodern neo marxism)... all the while, these heroes pat themselves on the back for being the Rational ones ...having 'tough conversations' and tolerating differing views (while tossing out lawsuit threats like halloween candy, of course).

It's about downplaying actual sieg heiling white supremacists while claiming that the term Nazi has lost meaning. 

I mean it's exhausting just pointing out the endless contradictions, holes and dangers of such self-important groups. 

These are the threats we recognized in islamist sanitizers posing as progressive...*immediately* in ‘skeptic circles’ but unfortunately...this crew has managed to convince many 'Rational', atheist-skeptic types that re-energizing conversations around ‘race science’, traditional gender roles, and anti trans sentiment from a ‘respectable, 'this is just science/rationality' angle is indeed ‘real liberalism’. 

So....this, dear readers, is a very quick rundown of why I think it’s incredibly important to mock and expose this group pushing alt lite/right adjacent talking points into the mainstream. Especially in today's political climate. 

This is where the real threat of literal regressiveness lies, currently - and I think we should do our part to push back.

Now that that's out of the way....here are some lighthearted Halloween cards, meant to be viewed with that perspective in mind (all that for 4 illustrations, I know! I've just had a lot I needed to get off my chest about this subject for a while):
