@haltercroptop I wasn't. South Asian men/people still aren't really considered attractive/desirable in the Western mainstream.

@raynefq as an immigrant who had to learn fundamentals of like three different cultural spaces after learning my first, this is actually huge and real, and I would totally back you up even if this weren't a joke.

lmfao this is so funny to me bc people w some knowledge of art history will tell you much of this is bc at various points in history, misogynist societies posited the ideal female form to be a male form w breasts, so that's what these sculptors did to depict the ideal female form.
Having a little weep at these… how on earth did they nail trans bodies and sex so well like 1000 years ago :’)

@ramoumaaa a lot of these look like sample sizes tbh -- even if you maintain only two beauty box subscriptions to try things, you would hit this amount of product in almost no time.

@WrittenByHanna ofc, we all know that the reason they're going so hard is that people are pointing out male Instacart shoppers as being inept at the job in ways they don't see female Instacart shoppers being, and their conditioned reflex to protect men from mean ladies is kicking in.

@WrittenByHanna got accused of thinking I ✌🏾own✌🏾 Instacart shoppers because I think it's fine and morally/ethically neutral for people to complain on the internet about Instacart shoppers being shitty at their jobs.

tbh (and I might get flak for this but). trans advocates stop seeing historical misogyny as evidence of pro-trans sentiment challenge.

@moooskimo @AshleighWildest . why should feminism benefit everyone? it's undeniably true that men will have to let go of some of the hegemonic power unfairly given to them and that is not a benefit.

@dgn_893x @witti_indi I feel like it should've just been left at "how's your morning?", and if you're really being tortured, "bump". no need to preemptively assume all the rest, wait for people to bring up problems with you if they have them (unless there are obvious signs of displeasure).

most monogamists don't really consider themselves monoamorists; monogamy is an institution ppl adhere to but we treat/talk about it like just another valueless choice/tendency rather than the institution/method of social organization/type of capital+labor relation it actually is.
lol the purpose of monogamy is capture of labor but we're not ready for that conversation.

but also, yeah, a lot of these sculptures are actually just intersex people who weren't put thru reassignment procedures (which doesn't inherently make them trans either btw).

@Introvertishurt @WrittenByHanna has anyone else noticed that this is the exact tactic of weaponized incompetence men use interpersonally? "I'm no good at this, you do it, and if you don't do it despite knowing I'm no good at it, you have no grounds to complain". NO, mf this is your JOB, stop being a gd baby.

sometimes I see headlines like this and am left wondering - 4 times more likely than who? "white people" as the norm is so assumed that you don't even need to write it? (even besides the fact that "Hispanic" isn't something you can see on a person to stop them for a search)
Hispanic, black drivers are 4 times more likely to be searched by police, study says via @nbcnews.

@43752083470g intersex people are not inherently trans or "trans bodies", especially if they're literally recognized as being intersex and not coercively assigned a binary gender (which is the case here).

@shaTIRED I think queer elders aren't really based on age but on the amount of time spent living in our reality — the 20 y/o who has been immersed in the community since like 14 can be considered an elder vs the 47 y/o who just came out last year.

@feelmyhelpcomin a lot of upper caste middle class South Asians in the US overextend their own experiences as if huge proportions of SAs aren't mistaken for Black, clearly going out the way to distinguish themselves from Blackness, specifically out of the anti-Blackness they've internalized.

@WrittenByHanna it's incredibly obvious that the motivation behind the backlash is just "you're already getting a man to grocery shop for you despite the fact that you're a woman and this is women's work, expecting him to be competent is just adding insult to injury" w/the usual women dickriding.
