This blog focuses on many human equality issues and positivity: i.e. gender ideals, sexual identity issues, gender rolls, racial issues, cultural issues, intersectionality, body/sex positivity, sex and masturbation, zines, literature, activism, age discrimination, classism, politics and all the in betweens, the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful. Questions and comments are welcome. Hatred is not.

I am a 21 year old queer pansexual female-identifying feminist/humanist/lover living in the Southwest region of the states. I am passionate, I create fire with words, and I believe that speaking up and making peaceful change is something that always fuels my human need to communicate. Perhaps you feel the same; if you do submit something! Speak up! Rant! Tell me your story! Together, let's make some noise.

I am a slut. ↘

Wonderful speech delivered at the Slut Walk in Boston. Read it.

The word “slut” is an act of violence. Not just metaphorically. It gives permission for people to rape us, and the person who wields it doesn’t have to lift a finger. It sends a signal: this one is fair game. Have at her. No one will blame you.

Which is why, when a Toronto cop told a group of law students at York University that the best way to avoid getting raped was to not dress like a slut, the people of Toronto took to the streets. And so have the people of Dallas, TX, and of London, England, and of Orlando, FL. So too are thousands and thousands of people planning to take to the streets in the months to come, from New Zealand to Amsterdam to Honolulu and beyond. All of us are coming together to say: enough. Enough. You cannot blame us for the crimes you commit against us anymore, no matter what we wear, what we say, or what we do.
