Nope none of that here. Take your slavery apologetics out of my mentions. You want to negotiate with scripture in such a way as to keep stepping on the oppressed and marginalized, do that elsewhere.
PS. Jesus hung out with sex workers. Like, often. Go do likewise.

I don't mean "Christmas is political" like the war on Christmas or similar shit.
No, Christmas is political in that we're celebrating the birth of a brown baby born to peasants in occupied Palestine, who preached about toppling systems of power. And right now thats toppling Christian Nationalism.

Our downstairs bathroom was installed in the most ridiculous location, with the tiniest corner shower. The gymnastics me and my home care aid used were absurd. No handholds or safety bars, and it's too small for a stool, or for the water to point at my head when sitting on the floor. We used bowls 😂

We'll wax poetically about beauty standards for women and the way it harms us and how we're concerned for young girls, and do what we can to divest of those systems... And then turn around and really happily participate in the same fatphobic culture reframed for men and packages as healthy fitness.

It's not that there are no conversation about male beauty standards. They are happening. But so many of the conversations women (and folks perceived as women) are having about the return of the 90s/00s ED culture completely cuts out men.

There's a lot of us older folks rightfully talking about the misuse of ozempic etc and its fueling of the return of harmful beauty standards for women.
But a lot less of a discussion of how the gym culture and overly-muscled male bodies in media depictions, and how dangerous that is.

Like, I'd be willing to lay a bet that when folks who learned to read this way are watching or listening to a different media, they're unconsciously using and adapting the same cues, which amounts to skipping something they don't understand or basically just guessing at its meaning.
