Anonymous asked:

Just so you know "groomer" in its current use started with referring to gender affirmation for trans kids and is extremely transphobic to use for that reason. If you mean "pedophile" you should just say "pedophile"

redstonedust answered:

grooming was first coined in the 1980s and historically has always referred to “specific nonviolent techniques used by some child molesters to gain access to and control of their child victims.” If you think it has ANYTHING to do with gender affirming care for trans children you have been lied to by the exact people who want you to assosciate those terms.

also on a technical level, a pedophile is any person who has sexual interest in children. not all have engaged in grooming, so it wouldn’t be an approrpiate label. though both are crimes. obviously.

….anyways i’m a minecraft blog how did i get here. girl help.

dating-type app but instead of matching for romance it connects writers/artists+ who don't want to do research with autistic people with the appropriate special interest

[inspectorlyfra]

the creators get the needed information without needing to filter out filler and translate technical jargon, and the autistic person gets someone who's willing to listen to their infodumps. what is there to lose

[grison-in-space]

have you considered the possibility that special interests are infectious and that listening to an excited autistic breathlessly explain why a topic you need to know about but don't want to immerse yourself in is dangerous? the activity has a tendency to set hooks in a person and make the topic interesting, and now you run the risk of generating packs of autistics with a new special interest to spread to all and sundry

actually wait no that's a great outcome, full speed ahead

Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.

It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.

Without Stonewall, without the efforts of Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, the LGBTQ Community wouldn’t be where it is today. Don’t forget the roots, don’t forget the catalyst.

[eyeshadow2600fm]

and then TERFs wanna be like, “hmm well the LGBT community existed before Stonewall!”

but like…Becky, of course LGBTQ+ people existed before Stonewall. We’ve all existed since the beginning of time. But the movement got a shock to its senses, a jump-start, a rocket-into-space when that glass shattered via Marsha P. Johnson, and when Sylvia Rivera was up on-stage protesting guess who was on the sidelines heckling her?

My apologies to the original poster as I photo captured this post to add to the thread-I reposted this last year for pride and expect to repost it every year I have left-it’s our history people.

Marsha P. Johnson allegedly died of suicide in 1992, and her death was never investigated. Even I, a mere prole, could catch the “she was murdered” vibes from the circumstances surrounding the discovery of her body.

Without a trans black woman, LGBT+ rights would not exist. Never forget. Never “pay it no mind”.

And whatever you do, don’t watch that awful movie Stonewall.  Go watch a documentary on Marsha P. Johnson instead.

[werewolfenthusiast]

What is the quote from Jingo, by Sir Terry Pratchett, to the effect of "when someone does something terrible, we want it to be one of Them, because if it isn't Them, then it is Us?"

[shrewreadings]

“It was because he wanted there to be conspirators. It was much better to imagine men in some smoky room somewhere, made mad and cynical by privilege and power, plotting over the brandy. You had to cling to this sort of image, because if you didn’t then you might have to face the fact that bad things happened because ordinary people, the kind who brushed the dog and told their children bedtime stories, were capable of then going out and doing horrible things to other ordinary people. It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was Us, what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do the bad things.”
