Super disappointed and the ballot guides argument for and against focused on very stupid points and not on anything to do with facts about transwomen and girls, not highlighted the discrepancies of greeting girls and women different from boys and men.
As awesome as it would be, I fear there are too many comfortable with status quo. That being said I’ll keep my fingers crossed
The only time I’ve been irked enough to make an account to comment directly on the article.
Save you a click:
Starting the article with, “Looking for a kinky Christmas gift for your terminally online gay friend this year?” And then quoting Allen with,
“For me, toys can help you to better understand your body and learn what you like,” feels tone deaf and pretty disrespectful. You don’t have to be gay to like anal play, and to start the article with that statement is more likely to make those that are not gay, or maybe even questioning their sexuality feel shame. You could have simply left out “gay” from your sentence altogether and it would have been fine and still a reasonable statement to make, but by having “gay” as part of that sentence implies that if you’re not gay, sexual exploration is not for you- or even that if you do like anal play you must be gay. Please consider your word choices more carefully in the future.
There better fucking be
