TIL that in 1916 there was a proposed Amendment to the US Constitution that would put all acts of war to a national vote, and anyone voting yes would have to register as a volunteer for service in the United States Army.

bring this back and suddenly capitalists don’t wanna go to war no more

Bring this back bc tbh its just common sense. If you truly think war is the best and only way to solve a dispute, then you must be willing to die for that cause.

How many times does this need to be said?

Asexuality doesn’t mean “doesn’t fuck”. It doesn’t mean “doesn’t like sex” or “thinks sex is dirty” or, worst I’ve seen at this point “can’t get their dick up”.

Asexuality is a lack of sexual attraction.

Not a lack of libido or sex drive. Not a lack of sex-positivity. Not a lack of the physiological processes that cause erections, tenting, production of vaginal lubrication, or other things of that nature.

Can asexual people feel or have a lack of those things? Sure.

Do they all? No. Are they defined by those? No.

Asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction. That’s it. Stop saying this shit to try to give a “hot take” or make asexuality out to be something it’s not to be easier to get people to exclude it.

There are lesbians and bi women who are not penis-repulsed.

And there are some who are penis-repulsed.

“I would never date a trans woman,” is transphobic because it is a blanket statement on all trans women, implying they are men.

“I have penis-repulsion, which limits my sexual compatability with some women,” is a better, less transphobic thing to say cuz it also refers to incompatability w/ cis women who prefer using strap-ons and dildos, while validating womanhood regardless of genitals.

Thank you for this. I had no idea how to ever adress this without sounding like a TERF. 

Also: not all trans women have penises! Surgery exists, and can be absolutely excellent for those who choose to have it! Whether or not a trans women has a penis is entirely up to her (albeit with considerations like the availability of doctors, her budget, and her general ability to undergo surgery).

And trans women can be penis-repulsed themselves! I would know, since I’m a penis-repulsed trans lesbian.
