It is very appalling and sometimes quite frightening to see how trans-exclusionary feminists have allied with rightwing attacks on gender. The anti-gender ideology movement is not opposing a specific account of gender, but seeking to eradicate "gender" as a concept or discourse, a field of study, an approach to social power. Sometimes they claim that "sex" alone has scientific standing, but other times they appeal to divine mandates for masculine domination and difference. They don't seem to mind contradicting themselves. The Terfs (trans exclusionary radical feminists) and the so-called gender critical writers have also rejected the important work in feminist philosophy of science showing how culture and nature interact (such as Karen Barad, Donna Haraway, EM Hammonds or Anne Fausto-Sterling) in favor of a regressive and spurious form of biological essentialism. So they will not be part of the coalition that seeks to fight the anti-gender movement. The anti-gender ideology is one of the dominant strains of fascism in our times. So the Terfs will not be part of the contemporary struggle against fascism, one that requires a coalition guided by struggles against racism, nationalism, xenophobia and carceral violence, one that is mindful of the high rates of femicide throughout the world, which include high rates of attacks on trans and genderqueer people. The anti-gender movement circulates a spectre of "gender" as a force of destruction, but they never actually read any works in gender studies. Quick and fearful conclusions take the place of considered judgments. Yes, some work on gender is difficult and not everyone can read it, so we have to do better in reaching a broader public. As important as it is, however, to make complex concepts available to a popular audience, it is equally important to encourage intellectual inquiry as part of public life. Unfortunately, we are living in anti-intellectual times, and neo-fascism is becoming more normalized.

This review largely reflects what i thought of the film but absolutely wild to call barbera an elderly woman when she's literally in her 60s

Not only do i think she's waiting for them at the bar, I think she's waiting for them ON the bar and everyone else has cleared out 😌

leather and those big hoops oh we're winning

hell yeah hell yeah

it was, i distinctly remember missing my stop on the train (worth it)

*two votes!!

yeah fr no pressure. it's probably one of your most complex case fics (not to mention the emotions of it all!). i will wait patiently 😇

be prepared to bleed my beloved!! yes absolutely i think it tackles this subject so well. everyone say thank u lauren

lucille and i will absolutely be ur cheerleaders for writing this!!

Ohhh for sure. like maybe he wouldn't immediately notice but he'd be suspicious and then she'd be cagey/trying to hard and he'd figure it out

PLAY 🗣️ THIS 🗣️ IN 🗣️ THE 🗣️ CLUB 🗣️

and a relationship with elliot, i do think that would have massively helped her to orgasm. but i don't think it would be elliot specifically. it's why i wanted to focus on just her solo, to show that a lot of the time those issues are internal and it's not reliant on a partner

tbf i do think she could still have issues orgasming with elliot. that kind of mental and emotional schism doesn't always go away just because you're having sex with someone you love. if it was after she had done a lot of introspection and internal work to get to the point where she could have sex-

just remembered the Monsters of it all. Ur mind.

but also YES especially i think in the current day of the, quite frankly, hugeness of him. And how much he has hurt liv. him feeling like he can't hold anything delicate bcs he'll break it

even down the title UGH. CINEMA

he literally said 'ma'am your tits look heavy i can hold them for you'

in my werewolf!liv kinktober fic she was morose about being the monster she had always tried not to be and elliot literally said 'you're just more fluffy now' and i really think that sums it up. like he just loves her 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

It's a much more interesting perspective on her refusal to retire.

also this is why werewolf!liv would go so hard

never apolgise this is FASCINATING.she went into the work partially to prove that she is not a monster and now she is using the work to keep herself from becoming a monster (despite the fact that it puts her in far more violent situations than another path would. also, children of wolves my beloved)

genuinely insane how such an interesting, almost fully fledged character with realistic mental illness and characteristics comes from. this fucking show. heavily held up by like 50 women on the internet over the years

100000% all of this. and i think part of this is why the 'normalitis' scene is as emotionally impactful as it is - elliot sees this, understands this, and loves her anyway - we've yet to see another character understand her feelings about being the Other so acutely 🥺

what's the point of having hands the size of her head if he can't cradle it? can't give her a spot to finally rest 🥺🥺

also [REDACTED] but im in a soft mood today lol

*and after that her descending into weeping

her descending into weeping that elliot is at first worried about before realised it's an emotional release and she's not feeling horrendous and her gathers her up in his arms and strokes her hair 🥺

this is what adele was singing about so passionately

oh ur spitting. I do think she'd cry afterwards too

she makes both me and stabler feel feral like cmon. devastating that women do not think they're hot when they're not thin
