the reason that carol (2015) and the handmaiden (2016) were snubbed by the academy of motion picture arts and sciences but call me by your name (2017) was not is because the idea of women living without men and/or exacting their justified revenge upon men makes men and patriarchally conditioned women so uncomfortable that they would rather see a grown man sleep with a teenager. in this essay i will

2018 is the year we stop derailing various lgbt posts to make them “inclusive”

No more non wlw on wlw posts

No more non mlm on mlm posts

No more non lesbians on lesbian posts

No more “girls are better/just date a girl” on mlm posts

No more cis on trans/nb posts

No more hets on lgbp posts

No more non lgbtpn on lgbtpn posts

This year, we let lesbian, gay, bi, trans, pan, and nonbinary folks have their own things for their own group and respect everyone’s individuality.

No more non asexuality on asexuality posts

No more non aromantic on aromantic posts

the irony is almost physically painful

Hot take but like…. trans people like don’t have to disclose that they are trans if they don’t want to. Trans people can work with you, be friends with you, and yes, even flirt with you, and not have to tell you they are trans. Our existence doesn’t require a full disclosure agreement.

And furthermore, someone not disclosing that they are trans doesn’t mean they are any “less proud” of being trans that someone who doesn’t disclose that they are trans! So quite telling trans people they need to be out everywhere all the time (potential putting themselves in dangerous and uncomfortable situations) or they’re “ashamed” of themselves!!!
