We Straddle LA, Bitch 12 years, 2 months agoso i’ve got way to many straight girlie friends, hope to find and hang out with more queers or lesbians (however the fuck you identify.) hope to have some fun.

we should schedule another bar meet up
-
that would be awesome, that is something that should be done more than once a year, me thinks.
-
Allow me to suggest a bar meet-up at the Bigfoot Lodge West. We had the last meeting at the other one and got to the conclusion that the Venice Blvd, between Overland and Sepulveda was more convenient.

this sounds good to me. we should try to make it an actual meet up, anyone else going to the FYF Fest on the 3rd? Ya’ll wanna do it after that shit,Labor Day weekend? If not then let’s pick another date. Seems like a few more people want to meet up. Let’s make this happen!

Genderstraddlers 12 years, 2 months agoOkay, so is it wrong of me to suggest that sex and gender can be unrelated concepts? In that a person’s physical sex doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with their gender presentation?
Because I totes wrote that in my last MA essay and the ‘expert’ on gender theory (she is a professor of women’s writing) at my university disagreed. Apparently…[Read more]-
You’re totally right, in my opinion. I get where people tend to think that they’re related, but that’s because they take what has become a societal norm and assume it’s genetic, like a person’s genitalia. What people don’t realize is that if they went to a different society, they’d find things to be completely different.
-
I agree with you, though I’m not clear if you’re talking about the distinction between sex and gender identity (how you think of yourself/how you define your gender) or between sex and gender expression (how you dress/present yourself publicly). You’re still right in either case, though, neither condition is automatically tied to sex. If the…[Read more]

Well now I’m just wishing I’d argued. But I think I was actually too surprised she thought that to say anything. Sometimes I forget that the rest of the world doesn’t think the way I – and most of AS – do. I get so into this feminist/queer activist internet world that I actually do get surprised when someone has a different opinion. I just thought…[Read more]

It’s okay, I wasn’t trying to diss you for any lack of clarity, I just wanted to make sure I was giving you an answer actually related to what you’d asked.
And I know what you mean about getting used to being around understanding people – sometimes I use a word like “cisgender” in conversation and am honestly puzzled by the blank looks I get in…[Read more]-
Yeah I knew you weren’t being snarky or anything.
It really frustrates me that these issues/terminology aren’t widely known or accepted. I mean, my friends, who are otherwise intelligent and liberal people, have no idea what I’m talking about when I bring up heterosexism or benevolent sexism etc. And it also frustrates me that ‘heterosexism’ gets…[Read more]-
There’s a really excellent explanation of this stuff here: http://tranarchism.com/2010/11/26/not-your-moms-trans-101/ I certainly use it for various arguments I get into!

Ivana posted on the forum topic What are your favorite queer documentaries? in the group
We Love Documentaries: 12 years, 2 months agoIt would have to be “Forbidden Love” – its really sweet and very candid. “A wonderful documentary about coming out in the 1950s … a group of women are interviewed & a background story unfolds as well . Great historical piece with a focus on the roles of butch/femme as demanded by the time. ” […]

We Love Documentaries: 12 years, 2 months agoI loved The Union; I watched it up at school with my chapter of Norml and it was really interesting. I also recently watched Murderball which is about wheelchair rugby and sparked my interest in the sociology of sport. The Age of Stupid is also really good.

We Love Documentaries 12 years, 2 months agoJust watched This Film Is Not Yet Rated on Netflix. Really interesting and definitely worth checking out. If anyone has seen or will watch, let me know if you were left feeling frustrated and angry afterwards.
