How To Speak Of Sex-Selective Abortions In India...
woh-battameez:
I wrote this another space in early January, since I just mentioned sex-selective abortions in the last post and already have an ask to elaborate on why India hates the womminz, and am in a benevolent enough mood to not publicly mock the person, I’ll just quote myself. Because I damn well can.
With 2012 creeping in, it’s going to be a matter of time before feminist blogs from...

Do we really have to educate editors that women can bring new perspectives on major stories, and not just to stories about living as a single woman or going through a divorce?

sainys asked: The girl I like recently opened up to me that she has herpes (not sure which type). She's known for about a year and im the first person she's told besides her mother. She's really disgusted with herself and is pushing me away because of this, even though I told her it doesn't change anything. We're trying to work it out and she's trying to accept herself, I wanted to...

artoftransliness:
When deciding transition steps, a lot of trans* guys are worried about doubt, either current doubts or about doubting their decisions in the future. Some guys begin to doubt steps they have already taken instead of steps they have yet to take, and consider taking steps to detransition….

Anonymous asked: Continuing the orgasm talk - I don't really like them! I can have them, but it's just too much sensation for me. And it's not that I don't like sex - I love it - but I just don't enjoy orgasms more than once in a blue moon. This makes my gf feel inadequate because she feels like she's doing something wrong, though she's very cool about it and doesn't try to...
Anonymous asked: Cold sores and canker sores are not the same but for some people they get a canker sore when they get an outbreak. It used to happen to my friend. It made her absolutely miserable because not only did she have a cold and headache her mouth was in pain.

fuckyeahsexeducation:
Cold sores ARE oral herpes. Most commonly, whenever someone is a child they can get herpes from a family member who gets cold sores kissing them. A LOT of people don’t know that cold sores/fever blisters are herpes and can be spread to the genitals. I’ll see posts on tumblr where people will say things like “got another cold sore, don’t worry it’s not herpes!” or “don’t...

Things I knew from high school science class: Viruses reproduce by hijacking a healthy cell and turning it into a virus parts factory, spitting out enzymes and proteins and using the cell’s normal functions to assemble them into new viruses. ZOMBIE CELL. The cell keeps manufacturing parts and building them into viruses until it bursts and the new viruses spill all over the place,...

Anonymous asked: If a long distance relationship ends, and the conditions under which it ended were vague, does it justify me going crazy trying to figure out what happened? He texted me that hethinks the distance has gotten the best of us and that's what caused our "communication breakdown". I feel so heartbroken. We had so much potential and everything reminds me of him. I can't stand the...
Anonymous asked: To go off of what the anon was asking and what you answered, I experience no sexual pleasure or arousal. I identify as asexual. Would you say that's normal, too?

Anonymous asked: I just found your post about identifying as queer. I LOVE YOU. I can't identify with 'lesbian'. Something about the word just doesn't feel right to me. I feel wayyy more like myself using queer or gay. And people usually give me dirty looks and sometimes some "Don't you know queer is a bad word" crap.

REMEMBER: THE ONLY RIGHT WAY TO ORGASM IS THE WAY...
Don’t ever let someone tell you otherwise. The way you experience pleasure is the right way and if someone takes issue with this, then they are the one with the problem. Don’t allow the hegemonic narrative of masculinity/femininity and the dynamics that “should” occur between these two ideologies twist you up in knots about your sexual experiences. If your sex is...

Look everyone! More religious cross over into the government! Look everyone! Governments completely ignoring hard data like states with abstinence only sex education programs have high teen pregnancy rates!
I read a couple of your asks from girls whose boyfriends don’t like how they reach orgasm. One was a girl who would tighten her muscles and one was a girl who was on . Their guys have a problem, not them. Their guys buy into the myth that women should be passive in their pleasure. That sex is something men do to women. I hope you have some good articles you can share to show their boyfriends that...

Anonymous asked: I guess it's none of my business, but have you ever engaged in anal sex? I feel like there is this horrendous taboo against it, when it really is a normal and average thing to try and even enjoy (even as a straight, cisgendered female). Last night, my boyfriend really wanted to try it again - we had experimented a few times but decided to wait before trying again, if we ever did. Anyway, we...

Anonymous asked: I am concerned about oral HPV...I've had oral sex with several men and I wonder what my risk of it is, and how it can be detected in the early stages. I feel way too awkward asking my dentist, who knows my whole family and has known me since I was 7 years old. Who can I ask? Who can check me out to make sure I'm healthy? The last time I went to the dentist the hygienest said it looked...
