“Same’s true of the Black Widow. Scarlett Johanssen looked great in that outfit, but she seemed to be there only as eye candy. The shot in the middle...”
(Warning: sex rant ahead.)
Can we please stop talking about “finding” the clitoris?
Can we please stop talking about “finding” the prostate?
Can we please stop talking about “finding” the “G-spot”?
It’s like a scavenger hunt for your body!
Sec 5.2(1)(c) of the ID screening regs of Aeronautics Act: “An air carrier shall not transport a passenger if the passenger does not appear to be of the gender indicated on the identification he or she presents.”
Canada, you’re disappointing me. Additionally, I think it is of note that this has way more to do with passing privilege than pre/non-op (though for some people that does make passing as cis more frequent), though another example of this going poorly I can think of is someone on hormones who doesn’t have their identification changed. I don’t know why it can’t just be, if you in general look like your picture on your ID (or have some paperwork explaining why you don’t).
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Not even just trans people, but anyone who doesn’t present their sex convincingly, whether by design or by nature.
Heck, it might be politically incorrect to point out, but some insulated people have difficulty determining sexes across racial lines.
Then there are people who fall in an ambiguous place on the sex line anyway. They might be legally defined as one sex or the other, depending on various biological aspects, but those may or may not include their secondary characteristics.
In many people, advanced age makes sex more visually ambiguous.
Some people have hormonal disorders that prevent the absorption of hormones during puberty, leading to the stunted or completely halted development of adult characteristics that we use to judge “sex”.
Some people just say “screw it” to the traditional gender presentation of their culture, and when you take a lot of those arbitrary things away, the line between a masculine and feminine appearance grows very thin indeed for a slew of people.
Trans, genderqueer, just-not-that-obvious, intersexed, very old, very young—whatever the reason that you are not obviously the gender listed on your ID, you should be horrified at this law. It doesn’t just discriminate against an obvious few: it forces all of us to live in and strive to accommodate a binary world. That is not only Not Okay, it’s frankly depressing.
The fact that we list sex on people’s IDs is disturbing, Orwellian, and misguided to begin with. Honestly, it’s a bit sick. We should be taking a step forward to have this archaic practice removed, not backwards to laws like this.
-about that damn House episode.
Removing the tumor will magically grant him a chemical libido-
-but how on Earth will that make him “want to have sex” (exact words)?
I know plenty of asexual people who have libidos. Who masturbate. Who take cold showers. Who fall anywhere on the spectrum.
The fact of having a bodily libido doesn’t magically make them sexually attracted to some gender, or make them want to have sex, or change their feelings about sex, or (as the show was implying it would) change their feelings about their committed, non-sexual relationships.
In fact, this whole chemical urge = MUST want to have sex is part of a deeper error of thinking that makes this such a rape-glorification and rape-excusing culture. It’s part of the mentality that incorrectly or insultingly genderizes people (eg., “Men are wild beasts who just want sex—they can’t help it”). Heck, it insults sexual people by insinuating that sexual urges matter more than personal choices. (The asexual character was given the line, “I swear I’m not one of them.”)
This is another example of how a crooked mentality that directly disadvantages one demographic also subtly disadvantages other, more privileged ones. It’s all interconnected. Our entire society needs a serious overhaul in its feelings and mentalities about sex. The whole works.
What Guys Think About During Sex
More immensely offensive and hilarious comedy.
What Girls Think About During Sex
Speaking of how mocking stereotypes can be unbelievably hilarious.
In the past 12 hours, since I posted TPoFFS, I’ve learned two really interesting things.
I’ve learned that I’m part of the most awesome fandom on Earth.
And I’ve learned why so many comedians are jackasses.
Guys, The Physics of Fan-Fic Sex was intended purely to be comedic. It was not a critique of fan-fiction writing, it was not a sex education post, it was not sex activism (except that bit about “full sex”), it was not writing advice, and it was not targeting anyone. I was not worrying about disclaimers or accuracy or political correctness or avoiding generalized statements because I was telling a joke.
A self-deprecating joke, at that. Because let me tell you, I gobble that stuff up as much as the next person. It’s in my writing, too. And I hope it’s clear that I freaking love the oodles of fluffy smut in our community. Obviously, or I wouldn’t have written an entire post making fun of it.
That said…
(Click to read. Two apologies/clarifications: one to youth & virgins, one to fan-fic authors.)
I. love. smut.
However, I have noticed a few… puzzling… recurrences in my preferred genre. Now, it has been scientifically proven that slash fic releases the same chemicals in the brain as eating chocolate does, and it has also been scientifically proven that chocolate releases the same chemicals in the brain as love/sex, ergo, reading fan fiction is neurologically akin to falling in love. Theoretically, you can live on slash fic without ever needing to leave the house (except to buy chocolate).
Unfortunately, there is also this little part of my brain that I have to turn off while I’m wanking to a good Sherlock/John kinkmeme entry: it’s the part of me that knows, deep down, that I’m masturbating to material written by an 8th grader.
