“She gives me money when I’m in need Yeah, she’s a kind of friend indeed I got a woman, way over town She’s good to me, oh yeah”

dreamsinthyme:
1. Begin your day with love (not technology). Remind yourself of your worthiness before getting out of bed. Breathe in love and breathe out love. Enfold yourself in light. Saturate your being in love.

It’s really good to know not just that there are others like me, but other black women (and women of color) specifically. Sometimes that makes a really big difference…

queerbrownxx:
Is there any way to be in a place where you really feel the need to explore your sexuality, especially through (sometimes nontraditional) sexual encounters, as a queer black woman, without being crushed by shame and self-loathing that society [falsely] heaps on you?
Like, what if I want to have…
Welcome to Cancerland →
To the extent that current methods of detection and treatment fail or fall short, America’s breast-cancer cult can be judged as an outbreak of mass delusion, celebrating survivorhood by downplaying mortality and promoting obedience to medical protocols known to have limited efficacy. And although we may imagine ourselves to be well past the era of patriarchal medicine, obedience is the message...

Masturbation is a beautiful thing.
ahistoricaltruth:
I indulge in the lascivious sensations my fingertips
transmit throughout my body when they,
stretch between my thighs
connecting the letters of his-
or her,
name
dotting I’s and crossing T’s
with every concentrated stroke.
I drip,
with satisfaction.
And my lips speak-
my lips moan
“yes, that is the right answer”
to every question that my hips ask as they,

I wish for no one to be labeled as a “(wo)man”, or even as “(fe)male-bodied”, because of their anatomy. I wish for the chance to describe my own body and to name my own parts.

I feel this sooooooooo much. Can we make a plan around this? Poly Play nights? Where play means spades, board games, sexy time, or all or none of these?
So you're bisexual?

metrofats:
Last weekend, MetroFats held a very successful skills share around body-shaming during holiday visits with family. We discussed the following questions:
What about holiday gatherings is hard for you? Is it just about body size, or is there other stuff too? What kinds of thoughts and feelings do the holidays provoke?
How do we cope with body-shaming in the moment?
How do we...

cydne-should-be-sleeping:
Some femmes are dominant and some butches are submissive. Some men have vaginas and some women have penises. Sometimes what you call a clit is called a dick by it’s owner, and sometimes a dick is really a clit. Some straight men want to be penetrated and some…

Expanded from a comment I wrote on an article by Megan Evans (Huffington Post):
Not all queer women are invisible because of femme presentation. The issue is more complicated among trans women. Some trans women are singled out for violence by the straight world and the cis…

for a future love
for a future love
who will love my body whole
understand its complexities
as a politicized entity
who will not bind it to slavery
or colonized ideas of conquest and pillaged spoils
because there has already been a war waged across my flesh
for a future love
who i can trust
will know the parts to stroke
the parts to rip open
the places to suture
and the wisdom to bow to the magnificence of my body queer
even the ugly
which is inextricable as they hold me
fuck me
love me
and turn away when it is over
for a future love
we will be consumed by the fire
perhaps perish
in a blaze of shrapnel and steel hot bullets
love
love
love in a way that is too queer
too brown
too reimagined
and still fucked up in some ways
but we hold it down together
you hold me down
in wars
in solidarity to the movement built on the backs of other
motherfucking queer/brown/femmes
in bed
because i told you to
and i give you my trust
so dont fuck it up
i will take you in
in
and in still
fortifying my queer femme boi body
