Being an Ally is not accepting LGBT people, that’s called being a decent person. Being an ally is being active, standing up, showing up, voting, participating, and making a difference. Allies have the power to be heard in spaces where LGBT people’s voices fall silent. Get in touch with your local LGBT Center or your GSA and find out what you can do to be part of our lifetimes civil rights battle.

Because even when society is pretending to care about queer people, they still value straight people more.

Women lived in germ-ridden camps, languished in appalling prisons, and died miserably, but honorably, for their country and their cause just as men did.

The untold stories of women who dressed and served as men in the Civil War

Always up for genderfuckery.

i get so tired of the stupid shit cishet people say that one day i’m going to stop admitting i am one

If you do not EXPLICITLY say that the character/person is lgbt*

then it DOES NOT COUNT as lgbt* representation

suggestions never have counted

they never will count

watching “fatal attractions”

seriously animal planet

panning over men walking around while his mom says “the person he was in a relationship with”

just say it

the sky will not fall

there comes a moment when you have to question why the most relevant program currently on the history channel is pawn stars

 #remember when sookie was played by a fat actress and there were literally no jokes about her weight on the show? #remember how she wasn’t defined by her weight? #remember how she got to date and get married and have kids and not be just the token funny fat friend of the main character? #remember when she ~got her life together and was happy before lorelai and that wasn’t seen as threatening?

I WISH SOOKIE HAD HER OWN SHOW

Remember how Sookie was a CHEF? And there were NEVER any “oh this food is so bad for you!” comments? NEVER any “oh Sookie eats so much food and that’s why she is fat!” jokes? It was just Sookie, cooking good food, flirting SO AWKWARDLY AND ADORABLY with Jackson, shaking her head at Lorelai for never having her shit together, and GENERALLY BEING THE GREATEST. 

ITA with all of the above, of course, but I am totally stuck on ARE YOU PREGNANT?

THIS.

what you fail to realize is that video games shouldn’t cater to females in the first place. It’s largely known that it’s targeted towards the MALE demographic and has been for so many years, so why would they ask for something like that to be handed to them on a goddamn silver platter?

that’s like a guy walking into the women’s department of clothing at a sears and demanding that there be more clothing for men there. Separation of sections be damned.

that’s not how it fucking works

no not really

the game industry is more like walking into a regular department store and seeing that all the clothes are only men’s clothes

and when you ask the cashier where the women’s clothing section is, they wheel out a small rack of cheaply made tutus, g-strings, and high heels all in bright pink

and then when you go “wow really that’s it” you get called an uppity bitch and everybody assumes you want all the focus on you when in reality you’d just like to be considered a worthwhile demographic since you also like to wear clothes, it’s not like you want some ridiculous getup, you just want a solid shirt and pair of pants that fits you alright.

I mean hell you even sort of like men’s clothes and you have no problem wearing them. They suit you well. But it’s very obvious once you throw on a pair of men’s pants that they were not made for you.

Perfect metaphor is perfect.
