3/ Sex and kinks are not inherently abusive/unsafe. But abusive people are always willing to use a scapegoat as an excuse for their own shitty behavior

Remember that.

2/ The next time you see someone claiming that sex is evil or that kinks are immoral/unsafe/exploitative, I really, REALLY want you to question whether or not that person actually understands the difference between CONSENSUALLY engaging in activities w/ others vs ABUSING people through manipulation

I appreciate the specific phrasing.

We have to wait until people aren't disappearing by ICE. I just hope it gets abolished fast enough that we haven't been made fully illegal to exist yet. I know that's coming fast. And I hope enough people care.
FWIW he did mention trans rights in a different video.

Pondering, "What sort of man do I want to be?" I was told asking for help, listening with empathy, and admitting when I was wrong would out me as FtM or gay. That only underscores how emotionally deprived men dehumanize themselves & others.

Honesty, empathy, and flexibility are not weaknesses.

That must be an incredible rush of validation. Sorely needed. I'm impatiently waiting until I get off work to watch it, as I already know it deserves my full attention and energy. (A few min checking bsky is shorter than the video :p)

FWIW, It made me feel better as a disabled trans man for you to even mention we're human too. Most queer people don't have a voice anyone will listen to.
Silence has been so deafening I confronted my work's executives-- terrifying. Still employed! People need to say that things are not acceptable!

Dirty Labs has a fragrance free dishwasher powder that is safe for even me, who is severely allergic to fragrances. It's not a cheap option but it's safe.

Remember when "woke" was not only an endonym, but a compliment? That's going to be very confusing for historians examining this period in history.
