A while ago I was told that someone traveled to another state for care (abortion is illegal in TN) and they went to an anti abortion center. This was a terrible experience for them as they were misled and emotionally coerced the entire time. For that reason I want to share how to spot an AAC.

The Reproductive Justice framework doesn’t change because you don’t like someone. Policing the womb due to paternalism & policing the womb due to hatred is STILL policing the womb. It’s not RJ as long as they’re “respectable”. Pregnant people are under attack & the allies sound a lot like the ops.

My dating profile should just read, “I am not a woman of god. I’m a woman the church fears and that mortal men pay their tithes and offerings to.”

Everyone swears they hate conservative values until it’s time to police the wombs of women of color. Hypocrisy much 😒 #CardiB

#IGAfterDark okay I tried to censor these as best as possible to share with y'all without being flagged by socials but let's see how it goes 🥴...

We've got a couple more days left of #analaugust so I might as well squeeze in another tip... but don't worry, it's just the tip 😜

The #WrapUp  Happy Saturday kinfolks. I hope the weekend is treating you well. If it's not at least maybe this can bring you a good time.

Happy #AnalAugust  I hope y'all have a good weekend, and maybe get a lil sum sum while you're at it.

Y’all want republicans to lose so bad that you’re willing to consistently throw disabled and poor ppl under the bus by literally any means necessary. It’s disgusting. This is not a pro facism post. This is a please reckon with the ways the left is supporting eugenics

In 1966, Masters & Johnson published the 1st sexual response cycle based on observations of sexual responsivity during partnered & solo sexual activities. They found that sexual response was divided into 4 phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm, & resolution. These 4 phases happened in a linear way,.

Today is Southern HIV/AIDS Awareness Day #SHAAD It was created to address the unique challenges facing The South, particularly the Deep South. This region experiences higher rates of HIV along with lower PrEP use. The reason… poverty, systemic racism, lack of health coverage, and stigma.

Yesterday, I read, “The Marketability of Black Joy: After “I Do” in Black Romance Film” by Simone Drake. lnkd.in/eKrcYxMA

You look happier. Thanks I masturbated. 🥰

#talkmethroughittuesday   Alright now I'm talking to y'all so talk to me! We all know, or at least I do, that love isn't the only thing that drives folks to get into relationships. Sometimes it's loneliness, financial burdens, the need to feel desire/loved, etc.

Trans and gender nonconforming folks can and do get pregnant. They deserve proper sex education as well as gender inclusive medical care.  #TransHealthcare

Birth Justice includes trans and gender expansive folks. When we don't include all marginalized genders in our research we leave entire communities without adequate care.

I know folks may not want to hear this but I simply do not give a damn. Your bond with your partner is your own. Consent applies to communication. Someone's personal information should not be shared without their explicit permission. A relationship isn't a get out of jail free card to run ya mouth.

I'm not talking about practice. I'm talking about health equity. I want a world where everyone has an equal chance to be healthy regardless of their identity.

#TalkMeThroughItTuesday  I recently asked this on a panel with @YellowFund  For me, the audience would probably be shouting at me to cut the shit and give love a chance. But they're going to have to keep yelling because I'm in a Bones level slow burn with the whole love thing.

It's time to get politically ACTIVE! Let's kick off this radical traditional by expanding who often gets our abolitionist support. Sex workers have entered the chat (in reality they should've always been here but I'm meeting folks where they're at right now).

Just hear me out! I know we all want the Big O, and I know that this doesn’t feel all that timely during an orgasm gap. However, this ain’t about letting lazy partners off the hook. This is about being real. Being real sex can, and does feel good, without an orgasm.

Happy Black Music Month, and Happy Pride!! This marks the beginning of our Black Music Month series, highlighting the music of our culture, as well as its ties to Reproductive and Social Justice. Today, we are discussing the impact of Homophobia within Hip Hop, and the stigmas that follow.

#talkmethroughittuesday  As a pet mutha it's a no for me. I don't even like when my pets are in the room while I'm playing with myself. Let alone while I'm with someone else. I also don't like pet hair on my bed.  I used to let my pets on but no more. Thoughts?

Shared from TikTok user @ magicmalakai Coretta Scott King’s speech at the 1998 Lambda Legal’s 25th anniversary luncheon. (Chicago, March 31, 1998) #Pride

#talkmethroughittuesday  Imma keep it a buck with y'all... I do in fact be munching and I can't say that I discriminate hahaha.

As an avid viewer of Black Romance I can honestly say I love the genre...good, bad, and trifling. Reflect: What kind of love stories did you grow up seeing? Did they make you believe love had to be painful to be real? What does a rom-com that reflects your love style look like?

Alright, enough is enough because is y'all cool???? Every time a story of abuse comes out I find myself inundated with comments pointing out how "they should've known better", "we told you he wasn't shit", "see what happens when you chase money", and so many similar sayings.

there exists no principle in the liberal mind that should not be abandoned the second it becomes politically inconvenient and that some voters cannot forsake morality to “vote strategically” is so intellectually mystifying that they are incapable of recognizing leftists as a constituency to be won

Second time seeing Sinners tonight.

This is the moment in Love Jones when Nina realized that time alone doesn't build love — it only records how long you've waited to feel it. So many stay because "we’ve been together so long.” But years don’t equal happiness, and history isn’t the same as a future.

For many, the messages we got growing up were layered; rooted in protection, respectability, silence, survival… and sometimes shame. “Don’t bring no babies home.” “You betta not be out here acting fast.” “Just wait until marriage.” 🫢 Or maybe… sex wasn’t talked about at all.

Politics impact our pleasure. When we are in control of our bodies and care we are more likely to experience pleasure and sexual fulfillment. Our joy, our bodies, and our futures are all bound together. #PlannedParenthoodvMedina

Some of us been too understanding for too long. Let’s be real… folks love to test you when they know you lead with softness. But grace doesn’t mean unlimited access. And being kind don’t mean being a damn doormat. A lifetime of letting shit slide is cancerous. Tell them folks to beat feet!

HIV is still disproportionately impacting Black folks in the U.S., especially Black queer and trans folks, and those in the South.  Black joy, Black sex, Black health = Revolutionary. Your life is worth protecting. Your pleasure is worth preserving.

Garnishing wages and having cash incentives to have children is nonsensical. It acknowledges that finances are a reason people don’t want to have children/expand their families yet is too daft to see how financially penalizing folks at the same time makes that incentive useless.

Abortion bans have turned the Deep South into a travel maze. I’m teaming with Yellowhammer Fund to raise $5,000 for gas, hotels, childcare & clinic fees so our neighbors can access care now. If you’ve got it, give it. If not, spread the word.   https://f.mtr.cool/fucygbxayo

Yellowhammer Fund won its lawsuit against the Alabama Attorney General to resume abortion funding in the Deep South. Today, we relaunched our Abortion Access Hotline! I'm coming to y'all on bended knee to help me reach my goal of $5,000 of YHF’s $250,000 goal. fund.nnaf.org/fundraiser/6...

Happy #LesbianVisibilityWeek  Let's kick it off with some Black lesbian history. This group address gender and racial violence within the queer rights movement and also showcased solidarity between ethnic groups with a similar struggle.

Too many of us know what it feels like to be asked to choose between our Blackness and queerness. To shrink in Black spaces that deny our sexuality. To go to queer spaces that erase our culture, rhythm, and roots. We’re not fragments. We exist whole. #TalkMeThroughItTuesday

Studying up on #BlackLesbian history so of course I bought a book from @reparations.club !!!

Let’s talk about it. Let’s get into some real talk: Yes, you can still have sex during pregnancy. Yes, it can still feel good. Yes, you deserve comfort and connection. Share this with a pregnant homie who needs to hear it. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #SheaButterSexEd

Black birthing folks are 3–4x more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white folks. Black birthing people deserve support. This #BlackMaternalHealthWeek, what do you wish you knew before pregnancy, birth, or postpartum? #TalkMeThroughItTuesday

Before "sex-positive" was a buzzword, Black Southern blues women were already singing, living, and loving out loud; and on their own terms. Reclaim your pleasure—our ancestors did it first.

When contraception was first developed, it was not developed with fat bodies in mind. Fatphobia goes beyond name calling and stores not carrying inclusive sizes (though that's shitty too). It also impacts the medical care people are able to receive. #SheaButterSexEd

Someone on TikTok said, "Men becoming fine again, recession indicator smh".  MY SISTER PLEASE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hey Kinfolk! I ain't want nothing for real. I just wanted to  chat about my queer journey and how leaving out sexuality from sexual education is a public health nightmare. Thoughts? #SWWConfesses #ForgiveMeFollowersForIHaveSinned #LetsTalkAboutSex #GrowingUpQueer

There has been a lot of controversy of language. This is especially true when you consider the language we use to describe sex. Do y'all consider the aggressive terminology used culturally as a piece of a larger problem? #TalkMeThroughItTuesday

Medical racism has stolen so much from my people! We deserve better, and we always have. From non-consensual human testing, closing hospitals in "urban" areas, devaluing Black ancestral and modern medical professionals, racist teachings and beliefs
