Anonymous asked: Uh, yeah, not entirely relevant, but when I saw the post in question that was one of my thoughts, especially the way that racismschool went on about not wanting to say anything about appearance. It'd be better if the post explicitly pointed out that it was about outfit, not about how the second was obviously of a certain weight, ESPECIALLY since there was a fat-hating comment in response.

Dear Cis Allies: I appreciate the support, really. I appreciate the outcry and rallying to petitioning for fairness and equality. But once this hot issue of the day has passed, will you remain a fucking ally? Not all all trans* people are beauty pageant contestants. Not all trans* people have or ever will transition. Not all trans* people “pass” as cis...
What is Trans* Repro Justice?
transreprojustice:
A lot of people when they hear the terms “prochoice”, “reproductive rights” or even “reproductive justice” only think of abortion, but this view is myopic in my opinion. “Reproducing” encompasses many things which includes the right to choose to have children (or give birth and choose adoption), to choose to not have children right now, and to choose to never have children....

i don’t hate you and you know that so please don’t even say it. we don’t need to go down that road. i have listened to too many of your stories, stared into too many of your eyes, i have sucked too many dicks and loved it, learned too much wisdom and gained too much friendship to write men off. if i hated you i would just say fuck it. there’s no way i would spend so...

Cis women are not being targeted by the anti-choice, anti-reproductive rights lobby.
For cis women to be targeted by the anti-choice lobby, they would have to allow that non-cis men, non-men and non-cis women exist.
And. they. do. not.

Stop commenting on fatshion articles about how you’re so sad you can’t fit into plus size clothes. Really, shut the fuck up. You know where you can shop? EVERY OTHER FUCKING STORE EVER.
You know where I can shop? At plus size stores, which there are not as many and straight size stores.
So why don’t you just let the fatties have this one? You don’t need to...

A person can choose to live a certain life style, if I wanted to loose weight I could do that, but I can’t choose to be different race… People with they’re lame ass blog agendas are fucking lames,_ and that’s one of those things they can’t change

No one is saying that you have to explicitly state you aren’t fat shaming. The issue was you weren’t clear at all what point you felt you were making. You felt it went without saying. What you continue to willfully disregard is the the way such an approach empowers bigots to see their bigotry. Because they feel that goes without saying, too. We get...

Yes, we are asking you to go out of your way to not appear fat shaming. If you’re anti-fat hate then that’s not a big ask. Clearly a lot of your followers aren’t judging by the responses. You’ve made your position clear, one I wasn’t aware of before your post, and I had no reason to assume you’e anti-fat hate. As a fat person it’s not a risk I can take to assume...
timholtorf asked: While the pictures on the facebook page were about clothing, I still think you're right on the pervasive attitude of some SJ tumblr people (not all, mind you) and their attitude toward fat people (fat, overweight, whatever larger people wish to call themselves, I am not therefore I cannot say with 100% certainty). It's like people became concerned about stuff, but weren't fully...
racismschool:
red3blog:
Fat shaming is so pervasive in our culture that frankly you can’t just use an image of a fat person with unspoken commentary and not expect it to be read as fat shaming. The problem isn’t fat people being too “sensitive”. The problem are all the people who feel entitled to fat hate who will smugly read that and not consider any other point. If you have another point,...

timholtorf asked: Top picutre he's wearing a hat which could be described as something "gangster". His attitude looks very relaxed and aloof. Bottom pic, he's dressed professionally, and we see he's actually a cop. It meant nothing about weight, I believe it meant everything about his clothing.
