this regards @jimmy_dore´s recent commentary on a particular @postmates commercial. 🫤

the ad perpetuates the ignorant fallacy & profoundly damaging myth that "sεχ between men = αηαl s∈× & αηαl s∈× = sεχ between men";

 1/📜
that an act most folks (male, female, LGB and hetero among us) find inherently off-putting is a necessary or predominant or inordinately prevalent component of sεχ between men.

(↝ i say this as an LGB♀ who researches for & writes LGB♂ characters – for a gay man´s perspective on the matter, check out actor/comedian @stephenfry & his documentary called _out there_ ↬ , specifically at 1:20:34)

.@JoeBiden is nominating the most diverse cabinet in U.S. history.

MEDIA: It’s up to YOU to report on nominees fairly. Leave the sexist and racist attacks out and give these nominees the chance they deserve.

Would be great if English media and politicians could follow recent examples in Ireland of NOT using victim-blaming language of 'revenge porn'. Its easy to do and has a direct impact on victims AND how we understand these issues: telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/01/0…
Read any of the legislative debates on the Irish Harmful Communications and Harassment Bill and you will find most politicians talking about intimate image abuse or image-based sexual abuse or similar #TerminologyMatters

Here's just one example of a clear headline - tells you what the problem is: it's abusive. It's not about what the victim might or might not have done or deserved

Communal sense making crisis:

“Rules out..”
“No Evidence of..”
“Rules out for now..”
“Multiple Church Fires..”

“Rules out” does not mean “No evidence of” and there’s simply no such thing as “Rules out for now”. Similarly reporting on multiple fires isn’t helping. #GetItRight
I don’t know how to say this politely. This is Norte Dame. Journalists need to tell us what happened & not jump the gun. Take your time and pass us information, but only the information.

We have time. Just don’t incite our passions or lie to us to cover anything up. Just facts.

My birthmom and I testified in support of #HB2725 yesterday in the Public Health Committee hearing. Although our bill isn’t about reunion, it was a testament to the fact that anonymity in adoption is a myth. #AdopteeRights @txadoptees @gina_calanni
I’m an adult. I made the decision to reach out to my birth mom and she made the decision to reciprocate. The state should treat all adult citizens equally regardless of their connection to adoption. This might become a long thread...
Additionally, if my birth mom chose not to be in contact with me, why would my OBC have anything to do with that? We are adults and adoptees aren’t going to force contact with a birth parent or any other person for that matter.
