The Littlest Thrasher
I'm a 25 year old single cis female college student from California. I proudly support LGBTQI, but I, myself, am straight. So...hello, boys! ;) (And by boys, I obviously mean men.)

I work in technical theatre as a stage manager and sound designer and aim to work in post production sound for visual media. :)

I obsessively collect gifs, but (sadly) I have not yet learned how to make any of my own.

~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~

This is NOT a spoiler-free blog! But I tend to tag quite thoroughly, so you can blacklist stuff.

I post things that I like, love, support, relate to, agree or empathize with, or find inspiring, intriguing, enraging, uplifting, sexy, hilarious, exciting, vindicating, eye opening, disgusting, invigorating, giggle-inducing, encouraging and beautiful.

This blog is an open-minded, tolerant, and accepting place, that promotes diversity, equality, body-positivity, LGBTQIA issues, sex education, and sexual health.

Specifics of what you'll find here can be found by clicking What I Post and/or my Tag links: Fandom Tags, Activism Tags, Other Tags. (Please note that they are under construction.)


tl;dr: I'm actually rather awesome. We should get to know each other. ;)

April 21, 2013: I hit 2000 visits on my globe thingy!

typingfrantically: Let me talk to you about books. Specifically, one book. This book. This book should be a best seller. This book should be required reading for graduating from high school. Before you get that diploma, you read this book. This book deals with debunking “Neurosexism,” which is a very fancy term for all of that evolutionary psychology bullshit that people spill about those “brain differences” between boys and girls. This book debunks such myths as: Boys are better at math than girls Women make crappy lawyers/business CEOs/etc, as their brains are not cut out for aggression. Men make crappy counselors/primary school teachers/primary parents/etc, as their brains are not cut out for empathy. MEN ARE BUILT FOR GOING OUT AND HUNTING WHILE WOMEN ARE BUILT FOR STAYING HOME AND BABYMAKING IT’S NOT SEXISM IT’S JUST BIOLOGY And many other such myths. Furthermore, this book covers topics such as:  Neurosexism and gender perceptions in multiple races (as this is not a singularly white experience, just as the western world isn’t a singularly white experience) Sex discrimination in the workplace, and how women are (or, more often, are not) allowed to behave How science is used (badly) to support many of these claims Experiences of trans* people, both through interviews and empirical studies. AND FINALLY - It is all brilliantly researched, cited, compiled - and it’s easy to read! Cordelia Fine actually manages to be funny while writing this, which I think is important, because it makes all of this information infinitely accessible. Delusions of Gender has reinforced what Oberlin taught me: The gender binary is stupid and arbitrary, and dangerous. And it is a self-perpetuating bias that needs to be addressed to be overcome. I really want to read this book now!

whoneedsfeminism: My daughters should not have a truck grabbed out of their hands by an adult and handed to a male cousin because, “This is a boy toy anyway.” My son shouldn’t be ridiculed because his favorite color is pink.   <3 <3 These kids. I love them. <3 <3

LETS GET DOWN TO BUSINESS

TO DEFEAT

PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS OF GENDER ROLES IN SOCIETY

That comment. I love it. 

Those preconceived notions will only be defeated IF:

We are swift as the coursing river, 

With all the force of a great typhoon, 

With all the strength of a raging fire, 

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon! :D
