Honestly literally all the women in the game are a million times more interesting than he is, so I don’t know why Astarion fangirls keep trying that line.
I should also say, that even before this appointment, Stonewall have presided over the biggest rollback of gay rights in the UK in all our lifetimes. The Green Party have shown that Stonewall's "throw trans people under the bus to save gay rights" strategy was always a crock of shit.
An article in the Times today by Kathleen Stock in which she claims, incorrectly, that ‘when the gay rights cause first got going, the ideal was toleration’.
To correct the record:
The gay rights movement I was a part of in the 1980s and 90s was not aiming for ‘toleration’.
Mere acceptance was not enough.
How would that help the isolated queer kid?
No. We wanted that child to know they would be loved and celebrated just as they were.
I must confess that I hate Astarion on principle. Mostly because I'm from a GRT background, which the Gurs are a stand in for, and he's racist towards them.
FIGHT ME YOU CIVILIZED COWARD
If I ever have to see 'he's a woman to me!' or '[yaoi couple] are lesbians to me!' being used unironically in the wild one more time...
Praising JK Rowling when asked a question on trans rights is akin to praising Anita Bryant when asked a question gay rights. No money to Stonewall. No Stonewall at Pride. They are already experiencing a funding crisis, and this chairwoman appointment should be their last. Traitors.
Same energy as 'Kylo Ren was a queer femme.'
An image showing a soldier in olive drab military gear, including a helmet and tactical vest, using a long-handled tool to dismantle or strike a life-sized, upside-down statue of Jesus on a crucifix. The statue is white and positioned outdoors near a stone wall, a solar panel, and some greenery.
This is an IDF soldier in Lebanon smashing a Jesus statue with a sledgehammer. It's obviously unacceptable but what gets me is the outrage this elicits when the political class never cared about the destruction of Mosques in Gaza. It takes their religious symbols being destroyed for them to care.
Prime minister why did you appoint Mandelson despite every fish and dog knowing this? Will you plea to be an ignorant fool or straight up corrupt and in cahoots with his type?
a black and white design that reads "you could learn a lot from a lesbian." to the right of the text are various items such as carabiners, a boot, a lollipop, a hammer, a boot, an apple, a lighter, cherries, a bouquet of flowers, a butterfly wing, and many stars. the entire image is textured to be grainy.
happy #lesbianvisibilityweek!
Me (41) and my mother (74) are housebound without any car, and desperately need new transportation. If we could raise enough for a down payment, we could get a used car.

i legit think it's because usually they know who "she" refers to, because there's usually just one woman character. They don't need to think about that at all, so it's weird to ask them to do that. Whereas they're used to doing it with the men, so they don't even think about it at all.
It's really funny that no one critiques books with tons of male characters as saying "it's hard to tell which pronouns belong to who" even though it's the exact same issue. I've only ever heard that complaint come up in regards to F/F stories.
lesbians :)
It is important to keep in mind that a lot of the natalist panic in the West is in response to a successful feminist push to reduce the rates of child rape.
(Teenage girls are statistically most often knocked up by adult men. I think the average age is around 23.)
I think about this all the time
Multiple male protagonists at that
Worth noting that not a single trans or LGBT org has condemned Stonewalls conversion to anti trans hate group, and only one has even engaged on it at all (well done @tacc.org.uk ).
Out of touch and far too close to political power to serve the community they supposedly represent.
I always took it to be more Dying Earth and Book of the New Sun.
The British upper classes, media classes, and their lackeys are like parasites, not only in that their relationship to normal people is purely exploitative and extractive, but in that they deal with threats to their reign by having one of their number wriggle inside and take control.
Can y'all keep your fucking Pope knobslobbing where decent trannies can't see it
Writing is a skill, and you're not gonna get good at it without actually doing it.
I briefly thought this was about Brock from Pokemon and fully accepted him having a sex scandal.
Comic. I’m at my desk, leaning over to the doorway, saying “Hey! Foghorn! Foghorn Leghorn! Get in here!” Foghorn Leghorn is walking past the doorway, “Boy, I tell ya, I tell ya, not so loud, boy. What, I say, I say, what d’ya want?” Next panel, I’m gesturing to my computer. “How do I find that really good manga you recommended? It’s an anime now? I keep getting Halloween costumes.” Foghorn leans over my chair, “well, boy, I say, I say, you ain’t typin the entire title.” Last panel, I turn around- “you said ‘witch hat.’ Foghorn gets in my face- “open your ears, boy!! ‘Witch Hat Atelier, I tell ya! I tell ya ‘Atelier,’ I tell ya’”
