Feminine Men - Blog Posts
Just to get this straight.
(Or as straight as possible)
(TW: mentioning of R*pe)
Men can dress feminine, women can dress masculine: clothes don’t have to have a Gender.
It’s also ok to dress feminine and like „feminine“ things as a woman.
Just as men are allowed to like „feminine“ things, and women are allowed to like „masculine“ things.
Equal rights does not mean, that the ones who want equal rights will have more rights than the ones who already do. Because equal does not mean that the ones who have the right already will lose it.
Someone being offended by what you may call your „Dark Humor“ does often not mean that they are sensitive, but that what your joking about was inappropriate. And I am talking about r*pe jokes, jokes about cultural or racial prejudices, body shape, disabilities etc. If someone feels offended or hurt by something, it is not funny.
Someone having a different culture, sex, religion, skin colour or over all appearance than yourself, does not make them less worthy of equality and love.
Let’s celebrate our differences and learn from each other, instead of demonising everything that’s different.
Pedophiles and Zoophiles are not part of the LGBTQ+ Community
Violence is not a solution.
Someone who’s having a disability isn’t any less human because of it.
Someone peacefully living and/or practicing their religion or culture is not a threat to anyone.
Hating someone because of the way they look, dress, or because of the country their from, is not ok.
Having a mental illness is ok, and not a shame.
Being afraid is ok, and not a shame.
Asexuals & Aromantics are a valid part of the LGBTQ+ Community.
Not to know which gender your identify with, if even, is ok.
Not knowing what your romantic or sexual attraction is, is ok.
Having sex with your partner without their clear consent is in fact R*pe.
Yes, r*pe can go both ways, men can be r*ped by women just as they can be r*ped by men. And women can be r*ped other by women just as they can be r*ped by men. But the fact is, that the r*pists are male in most cases.
It’s ok to not want children.
Your body, your choice.
Not liking someone is ok, attacking or threatening them and/or their families, is not.
Loving yourself and your body, is ok.
Feeling beautiful, is ok.
Having a bad day is ok too.
Being yourself is ok.
And no I do not mean it’s ok to harass, attack, invalidate, kill (or whatever else that you know I did not mean) people because that‘s „who you are“.
That’s the lamest excuse I‘ve ever heard and ever will hear.
GIFS describing my first reaction:
GIFS after reading this and how I view him now:
Figarland Shamrock is an Otter, an analysis.
With the release (on most major pirating sites) of the newest One Piece chapter, a new character known as Figarland Shamrock was introduced. As One Piece fans are acutely aware, this mans importance to the story is quite vital, being seemingly a twin to Red Haired Shanks, one of the series' most mysterious and popular figures.
However, as I was discussing the latest chapter with a friend, he remarked that this new character had a certain "feminine" quality to him, a sentiment which I shared. However, the details of how he came to this conclusion fascinated me, so I decided to analyze his design and see exactly why exactly it is that this man looks like he belongs in a queer Halloween party.
(Also: YES I am aware that the image says twink and not otter, the people who I discuss one piece with are straight as fuck and do NOT know what an otter is. also i can't rlly add an img id cuz i'm supposed to be doing hw rn. srry >n<)
I'm aware that some of these comments might not be completely accurate, but these are just the things that stood out to me the most.
If you see anything you saw that wasn't listed feel free to add! :D
The mistake is thinking that no men would be into this. Au contraire, I can direct you to whole forums of feminine straight men who would love a gal like her.
Trapeze artist, strongwoman, and all around badass Laverie Vallee, stage name Charmion, flexes for the camera in this (colorized) picture from around 1905. Born in 1875 in Sacramento, Charmion was a pioneer. She shocked conservative Victorian/Edwardian men with her daring "Trapeze Disrobing Act" (which was the subject of one of Thomas Edison's first films) and her insanely jacked body. But the ladies loved her, and her performances, which were viewed as practically pornographic by the extreme standards of the time period, were mostly attended by women. Throughout her career, she inspired women to exercise and to free themselves of the restrictions society placed on them. Charmion criticized the prudish attitudes of the time and told women they could be just as strong as men (this was a radical claim for that era, but her own body was the proof). A brilliant woman, she was fluent in six languages and regularly lectured and wrote newspaper articles about fitness. She was the highest-earning performer on the vaudeville circuit for much of her career, sometimes earning as much as $500 per week (equivalent to almost $20,000 today). Charmion was known to curl 70-pound dumbbells as part of her workout regimen and she could walk 12 miles without feeling fatigued. Charmion's biceps reportedly were almost exactly the same size as those of Eugen Sandow, who was widely considered the world's strongest man, and in a friendly sparring match she fought on an equal footing with the then-famous boxer Terry McGovern. She retired in 1912 and lived a quiet life outside the limelight until her death in 1949.
EDIT: I made a second post with some more info about Charmion if anyone's interested:
"I love a man who acts like a woman and is prettier than me" "Lol date a woman then" STFUUUUUUU
