(via NOW Toronto, a nice bit of clarification of “compersion”) Dear Sasha, I was quite disconcerted with your reply to Desperate Puppy, so much so that I feel compelled to respond.

[Kafila] A Modest Proposal for the Castration of...
(via Shuddhabrata Sengupta at Kafila) Dear Kafila Readers, Here is a modest proposal to castrate police men and male police officers and security forces personnel in India who come into contact with women in the line of duty. I thought it would be an appropriately thoughtful, and at the same time useful and practical way to end a turbulent year. The context from which this modest proposal...

Challenge Racism and Colonialism
racismfreeontario: Despite Canada’s reputation as a “multicultural”country, there are profound inequalities among Canadians, as well as between Canadians and Aboriginal Peoples. Our new and innovative Race, Ethnicity and Indigeneity (REI) program - the only one of its kind in Canada - challenges these inequalities by examining how they thrive in our everyday experiences and addressing how they...

occasionally pensive: our babies are monkeys →
daniellemertina: Reading a post where someone said that they watched a youtube video of a couple month old black baby and someone in the comment section called the baby a “monkey” has been on my mind way longer than I would have anticipated.

A Note About Cissexism...
manybothans: I had a really great pride this year, but I was also troubled by comments I heard over the last week from a lot of people in both the mainstream and radical queer communities. I want to say a few things about cissexism, specifically towards trans women and other MTF spectrum folks. 1) Gay sex does not require genital symmetry. Most people in the community realize that not all...

[Usmann Rana] An Open Letter To Marvi Sirmed
(via Usmann Rana) Respected Ms. Marvi Sirmed, Let me start this letter by applauding your courage to stand up and defend your beliefs in the face of bullying bigots pervading the talk show scene of Pakistani television channels and discussing issues of importance that are often swept under the carpet, the pretext being issues such as nudity, gay rights and secularism being irrelevant to a...
