When we understand that our history is diverse, it changes our outlook. I hope that this Black History Month, we all take the time to uncover the history lessons we were denied in school https://www.wearequeeraf.com/how-many-more-generations-will-be-denied-black-queer-history-before-we-take-action/

If it’s worth banning, it’s worth owning. #BannedBooksWeek

Her thoughts on gender, androgyny, and the fluidity of presentation that have led many queer folks to feel she may identify as a lesbian or with some other sapphic identity today. www.patreon.com/posts/select...

1994 FTM Trans Pride www.digitaltransgenderarchive.net/files/5x21tf...

i'm not interested in some sort of disneyfied unsexy LGBTQ+ community being preserved. that's not us. that's not our history. you can't take the "sex" out of "homosexual". i don't give a crystal shit if you can still steam "love, simon". the freaks and queers i know are making porn.

the problem, as i see it, is not that censoring erotic content is a slippery slope to censoring LGBTQ+ culture. it's that censoring erotic content IS censoring LGBTQ+ culture.

Loved reading Gaysians this morning! The graphic audio is great, and I'm grateful that my patrons voted for me to read my ALC of it!
