I watch a video made by a lesbian influencer about how you might have this one fictional or celebrity man that you like, to tell yourself that you can't be a lesbian when in reality you just like them as a person and it's not actually a crush and then I go into the comments and the second comment I see:
A comment about David Tennant <3 He belongs to the lesbians truely!!
Unpopular opinion: not everything that makes you uncomfortable is bad. Sometimes discomfort means your worldview is being challenged. It’s okay to sit with discomfort and think about where it’s coming from.
Fun fact: ‘Mind how you go’ is a Terry Pratchett reference. Not only his last book, The Shepherd’s Crown, has this dedication to one of the characters, it’s the Pratchett family’s mantra for safety:
Her [Rhianna Pratchett’s] parents were living in Wiltshire, while she was based in London but they saw a lot of each other and spoke constantly. “I’m always telling them I love them on the phone in a slightly silly way. We always say to each other, ‘Mind how you go’; it’s almost like a Pratchett mantra for safety.”
with Rhianna, the daughter of Terry Pratchett, saying this as her last words to her father and her grandfather.
edit: OP is a trans inclusive intersectional feminist. this post is not for “the overlap between trans men and lesbians” (quote from a terf who reblogged this). this post is for trans lesbians, and solidarity between lesbians and trans people. TERFs and other radfems dont reblog or interact.
A random thought about Phileas Fogg that I can't get out of my head... When on that train to Brindisi Niccolo Moretti’s son, Alberto, causes Fogg to spill a drink, Fogg not just tries to brush off the accident, he goes after Moretti to ensure everything’s all right and to insist it was his fault and there's "no need to punish the lad." It’s not what happens between the father and the son, but Fogg, seeing Moretti’s temper, is clearly afraid the boy is going to be physically punished and would rather redirect Moretti's anger onto himself. And given his very obvious aversion to touch, I can't but suspect he's gone through physical abuse at some point in his childhood, so it's the first thing that comes to his mind when an angry man rushes after his son.
“The Barbie movie is like basic gender studies 101. It’s like the bare minimum for feminism”
YEAH SOME PEOPLE HAVENT TAKEN GENDER STUDIES 101 AND WOULDNT YOU AGREE WE ARE CURRENTLY AT LESS THAN THE BARE MINIMUM FOR FEMINISM?
things do not need to be perfect to be good. You cannot teach someone intersectionality if that person has not heard of bare minimum feminism. You might be on step 100 but just because you started earlier does not mean that everyone can jump to your level. They have to climb the stairs too. And the people at the top yelling down to the people at the bottom that being at the bottom is bad, they need to be at the top, IT DOES NOT ENCOURAGE THEM TO CLIMB UP.
