Aussies, you might know what I’m talking about.

>13 year old girl at the footy says “way to kick, ya ape” to a footy player on the other team

>happens all the time, people trash the other team, their members, and the spectators

>everyone instantly takes it as a racist comment because the player is a PoC and she is white

She shouldn’t have said anything, of course, it’s not right to insult other people like that, but shit, it’s the footy, it happens all the time, but of course because the guy isn’t white, it’s got to be racist. I just think it’s bloody stupid for this to be at the top of the news for a few days now, and for everyone to be flipping their shit over it being racist, that’s an assumption, and the kid even said it wasn’t racist, they know they were just being a silly kid and got caught up in the game, and they’re very sorry.

Just… footy players get verbally abused all the time. Only reason it’s in the news is because everyone thinks it’s racist. It’s also funny how some people on Facebook are going on about how all Collingwood supporters are like that. It’s… footy… calm… down…

I feel sorry for both sides, for the guy for being insulted, and for the girl for  being hounded by the media, but this is so silly.

Was the player she insulted black or middle eastern? Because if they were, I’d actually have to disagree because people often throw ape or monkey at them as an insult because of their appearance and its got a lot of racist history behind it.

I would’ve been with you 100% if it had been something a little more generic like motherfucker or shitbag. But whether or not she intended it, there is a racist connotation to calling certain people that.

I don’t believe she should be hounded and harassed by people tho. She should apologize and learn that intention is not the only thing that matters, but not publicly vilified.

Gun-toting granny Ava Estelle, 81, was so ticked-off when two thugs raped her 18-year-old granddaughter that she tracked the unsuspecting ex-cons down… And shot off their testicles.
“The old lady spent a week hunting those men down and, when she found them, she took revenge on them in her own special way,” said police investigator Evan Delp.
Then she took a taxi to the nearest police station, laid the gun on the sergeant’s desk and told him as calm as could be: “Those bastards will never rape anybody again, by God.”
Cops say convicted rapist and robber Davis Furth, 33, lost both his penis and his testicles when outraged Ava opened fire with a 9-mm pistol in the hotel room where he and former prison cell mate Stanley Thomas, 29, were holed up.
The wrinkled avenger also blew Thomas’ testicles to kingdom come, but doctors managed to save his mangled penis, police said. “The one guy, Thomas, didn’t lose his manhood, but the doctor I talked to said he won’t be using it the way he used to,” Detective Delp told reporters. “Both men are still in pretty bad shape, but I think they’re just happy to be alive after what they’ve been through.”
The Rambo Granny swung into action August 21 after her granddaughter Debbie was carjacked and raped in broad daylight by two knife-wielding creeps in a section of town bordering on skid row. “When I saw the look on my Debbie’s face that night in the hospital, I decided I was going to go out and get those bastards myself ‘cause I figured the Law would go easy on them,”’ recalled the retired library worker. ” And I wasn’t scared of them, either - because I’ve got me a gun and I’ve been shooting’ all my life. And I wasn’t dumb enough to turn it in when the law changed about owning one.”
So, using a police artist’s sketch of the suspects and Debbie’s description of the sickos, tough-as-nails Ava spent seven days prowling the wino-infested neighbourhood where the crime took place till she spotted the ill-fated rapists entering their flophouse hotel.
“I knew it was them the minute I saw ‘em, but I shot a picture of ‘em anyway and took it back to Debbie and she said sure as hell, it was them,” the oldster recalled…
“So I went back to that hotel and found their room and knocked on the door, and the minute the big one opened the door, I shot ‘em right square between the legs, right where it would really hurt ‘em most, you know. Then I went in and shot the other one as he backed up pleading to me to spare him. Then I went down to the police station and turned myself in.”
Now, baffled lawmen are trying to figure out exactly how to deal with the vigilante granny.. “What she did was wrong, and she broke the law, but it is difficult to throw an 81-year-old woman in prison,” Det. Delp said, “especially when 3 million people in the city want to nominate her for Mayor.”

I love how this whole thing is written to make her look like the bad guy, and the rapists like victims.

In this case, the rapists are the victims. Regardless of their horrid and unjustified actions, shooting off their testicles and penises isn’t ok. It is a crime. She isn’t a hero. She was understandably upset that her granddaughter was raped, but is it really justified to shoot off their penises? Haven’t you ever heard of “an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind”?

Idk man
If some guys raped my granddaughter I’d want to shoot their nuts off too. In fact, it would be bloody hard not too. I’d prefer some castrated sickos who will probably never rape again, even if it means I committed a crime, but then again, this is coming from me, the dude who had to hold himself back from killing a child molester. Go grandma. I have no empathy for rapists. I also think it’s easy for people to say they wouldn’t do something when they are the ones who didn’t experience it.

I would not cheer for this grandma either. Would I want to exact revenge on someone who did something horrible to people I love? Fuck yes, but that doesn’t mean I am right to do it.
This is vigilante justice and the problem with this is, what if she got the wrong guy? Where do we draw the line between when it is appropriate for someone to exact revenge for a wrong that has been done to them?
Honor killings are also done because people honestly believed they have been severely wronged.
But I do like that she turned herself in. Even she acknowledged that what she did was wrong, despite the fact that she was more than happy to do it. I don’t agree with what she did but I cannot entirely blame her. View high resolution

The world according to Tumblr
I am not sure if I captured all the subtleties of tumblr’s political discourse though, Russia may be part of the USA too for all I know.

I believe Russia part of SJUSA.

I’ve come to actually dislike the term POC because of this mentality tumblr has.
Listen up, not every non-white person should be called a POC. The term was made up as a catch-all to be used when referring to the other groups in white-dominated places such as the USA. They all share that much in common— being the minority or being treated as the lesser in the country they live in because of their race.
NON-WHITE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THEIR NON-WHITE DOMINATED COUNTRIES ARE NOT POC.
I, as a Filipino living in the Philippines am not a fucking POC. I do not share the struggles or issues non-white people in places like America share. By lumping together everyone who isn’t white, you’re basically saying we’re a fucking monolith and that white IS the fucking norm.
Asians in Asia, Africans in Africa, South Americans in South America, Middle Eastern people in the Middle East— none of us should be grouped together as ‘people of color’. If you must call us as a group, call us Asians, or Africans, or more specifically by our Ethnicity or Nationality.
Until I move to Canada or some dominantly-white country, I am not a POC. I am Asian, South East Asian, Filipino, Manileño. Do not use your USA-centric point of view to label me as you see fit. View high resolution

PinoyFTM: Transpinoy rising

pinoyftm:

Outrage magazine’s article on PinoyFTM.

Here’s the Outrage article written about the group I’m a part of.

We had a bit of an issue tho with their policy of not writing trans man as two words because apparently, other trans activists have made it policy that it must be written as one word, to which I say, that is fucked up. :|

I open up my youtube for the first time in months and lo and behold, someone made a video response defending the term “Die Cis Scum”.

Oh god, I don’t even know why I try. I have been very patient with these people but they are too caught up in their own ideology and butthurt to see the effects of their actions.

I’ve suddenly been hit by the strange fear that I’ll never be able to move to Canada and I’m going to have to live the rest of my life in this horrible, LGBT-bigoted country.

Canada is fucking awesome, do you have you anywhere specific you want to move to? You’ll get there mate, a friend of mine’s on his way to getting PR after basically impossible odds.. just got to keep focused on it, and on the best way to do it.

I’ve really got Vancouver in mind when I dream of moving, but honestly, I don’t care where as long as it wasn’t Quebec (because I carn’t speak french).

I guess a lot of it stems from the fact that I only know one route to immigrating there and it’s not one I can really take.

I don’t suppose I could ask your friend a few questions? IDK, I don’t quite know who to turn to for help at this sort of thing which makes it a little more challenging.

Q
my parents aren't very accepting, and they won't let me go on t. so i figured i'd get it on my own. i'm almost 17 and i really can't wait any longer, i'm miserable. i don't really have any other options at this point.
A

If you can manage to buy online, you could be able to get into contact with a trans youth support group.

Where do you live (I mean the state or whatever)? You wouldn’t want to fuck up your medication and have your parents proved right about why you should never have gone on, do you? 

Have you at least seen a therapist? They also might be able to help you connect to other resources or at least help you through your feeling of misery.

But seriously, where is your general area? I’d much rather help you find access to safer ways of getting T than to help you self medicate when yes, you actually do have options given where you live.

ETA: Sorry, I didn’t mean to publish this. Let me know if you’ve read it so I can delete it if you like.

I’m two sessions into my new sleeve.

I know this might sound super cheesy, but I’m so happy that I’m at the point in my life where my gender identity feels totally solid and respected to a degree, if I had not been able to get to this place, I wouldn’t have had  allowed myself to get something like this because it just didn’t feel right at the time.

Weird as it sounds, pre-transition, I had these things that I would not allow myself to do because they were something that was meant to be for the ‘happy me’ (I didn’t know what else to call that at-the-time-pipe dream when I had no knowledge of trans men). So now that I am on the way to this happy me, I can allow myself to be and do the sort of stuff that I had on hold.

feminism confirmed for hate group

As much as radfems are losers, I’m kind of bothered by the MRA’s thinking of trans women as men.

You know, the same as the radfems.

Which brings the implications that, somehow, the loony radfem idea that trans women are a bunch of rapists is true. *shiver* Oh, and trans men have no place in the men’s movement because we’re evil ball-busting bitches or some shit instead of, well, MEN.

HYPOCRISY MUCH?

Where in the article was that implied? Or was it in the comments. Surely, I don’t think AVfM would hold such apolicy true considering the likes of Erin Pizzey is an MRA and one of their contributors?

It’s on this page

The contents of this site simply reveal the real people behind the feminists promoting murder, genital mutilation, hate-campaigns and general bigotry towards men, transgender men (m2f) and even baby boys. ”

“transgender men (M2F)”


There you go. Not on AVfM itself but on the Agent Orange Files site.

Well that is a problem. 

Someone ought talk to Agent Orange about that, tho I worry commenting on that thread might just get ignored given that it was posted in 2011.

If that was the official stand or thoughts on the matter AVfM had, they’ve certainly come to realize the error of their ways as they can now properly acknowledge who trans men and trans women are, as you can tell by their entry on trans-misogyny and trans-misandry.

But your right, it is problematic that Agent Orange’s site has that written there. Perhaps one of the more popular trans MRA’s should be made aware so they can use their influence to better call this out.

But I have never seen the MRM to have the same kind of othering mentality radical feminists have that desire to kick out  women or trans people. Some of the most popular and active MRA on the internet are women.
