“You don’t look sick”.

Chronic illness is often invisible

Many disabilities are invisible

People can look “fine” on the outside and have devastating disease processes inside their body

They can be living in constant pain, fatigue & exhaustion

Don’t judge a book by its cover

Ouais mais t’as déjà l’air de connaître bcp trop bien, plus que moi pourtant j’ai fréquenté la même religion et j’ai passé une décennie après a m’intéresser aux mouvements évangéliques et post 2cd great awakening

Je me demande quand même pourquoi t’as toujours autant de chicks tracts sous la main 🤔

Vous savez que la meuf de Jesus Camp est tjrs la et active 🫠 elle fait des vidéos mtn

Ah mais c’est un truc qu’ils disent très souvent aussi. D’ailleurs dans les milieux évangélistes et fondamentalistes c’est assez mal vu de dire que c’est une religion
interopidum.bsky.social
Aussi possible oui, de toute façon bcp de chrétiens sont très doué à ça, pour expliquer que toutes les autres branches chrétiennes ont tort sauf la leur

Nothing can be violent of hateful is it’s from God…

So they can do whatever they want and justify it with that
interopidum.bsky.social
The same way they’re saying that being violently homophobic is in fact loving, bc the most loving thing to do is to share the truth to someone about their sins (and Christ blabla)…

The whole “love the sinner doesn’t mean we have to accept the sin, in fact the loving thing to do is to reject sins” 🫠

The worst part is that he’s probably saying that not because he doesn’t know
But because he’s seeing the violent extremism as completely justify, “so it can’t be violent if it’s from God” way of thinking
interopidum.bsky.social
An evangelical pastor: “Christianity isn’t like the others religions because it is the only one who doesn’t have violent extremists”

Like… dude… in which world are you living in 😐

A 20 ans je voyais déjà des effets visibles du changement climatique par rapport à quand j’étais gamin, et y a des types de +60 ans qui viennent te sortir que c’est juste les saisons et qu’ils y a absolument rien de nouveau prc que le changement climatique n’existe pas

-is bc I want ti correct the fact my penis is invaginated, something I’m born with and probably one of the only things I would have wanted/needed to change anyway, if I had the choice but I didn’t

Yeah I’m in a similar situation, I need to be in HRT even if I don’t like that, since I was forced to take HRT at ~12yo. I also clearly need reparative surgery, it’s mostly to try to minimise the damage on the outside of the genitals and urethra from mutilations. But a small part of it -

Same. So it’s not only in the US. Also when intersex is quite international DSD is an English acronym so I clearly don’t see it used in French or German except by “gender critical” and bioessentalists
interopidum.bsky.social
-mostly a British exception

As far as I know, except stupid people who believe you need to fit their arbitrary criteria to be “intersex enough”, the push to stop using intersex is mostly linked to the anti trans pushback and anti trans legislation. And it’s probably not a coincidence that the normalisation of “DSD” is-
interopidum.bsky.social
-a probable sign of bioessentialism, pro forced medicalisation and anti trans bs, not saying you are any of that
interopidum.bsky.social
Not that I don’t want you to call you the way you want, but I have more of a problem when DSD is used as a general term and a way to erase intersex identity and decades of activism, and again about what it is implying. Also as we both explained a lot of people view the use of DSD as -
interopidum.bsky.social
-the fact we said our bodies are legitimate the way they are doesn’t mean we aren’t also completely legitimate to wanting/needing to change it. But we strongly disagree with the medical view of being intersex as an issue in itself for being male/female “wrong”. That’s not the issue.

-has mrkh, she was born without a vagina, but for her it wasn’t something she had a problem with, and what harmed her the most is the surgery she was forced to have. It’s precisely why we don’t want to categorise certain variations or traits as issues/problems,-
interopidum.bsky.social
-are against pathologising the variations in themselves, or having or not some traits as always a problem for everyone, bc what cause or not an issue is very personal.
I have a friend who’s an intersex activist (I can talk about her she literally write books about it) she -
