It’s that time where I once again open up commissions. Bills from a past surgery are mor expensive than anticipated so every little bit counts—even if it’s just a signal boost. (‘:

Gender and Rape
GuyFriend: There’s a guy at work that like tries to touch my crotch,he kisses my neck and ears, and just touches me all the time.
Me: Do you ask him to stop?
GuyFriend: Yea but he never does.
Me: That’s sexual abuse.
GuyFriend: But I’m a dude. That can’t happen to me.
Me: Ya know what? Next time he tries to get you to go to his truck with him during lunch break, do it.
GuyFriend: NO! He’ll fucking rape me!I don’t want-…
Me: *wait for it*
GuyFriend: So wait I can be sexually abused and raped.
Me: Yes, you can. Gender or gender identity don’t matter.
GuyFriend: … Its fucked up that not even our parents taught us that while we were growing up…
If you choose to have sex with your SD, ALWAYS use your own condoms.
Omg this makes me want to vomit.
but WHY. And yes ALWAYS at the very least inspect your condoms. I’ve had clients ask if we could use theirs due to allergies and such. Make sure the air levels doesn’t change when you squeeze it and check this from multiple areas look for any tears or hole. Packaging should be fresh and stiff. Also check exp. dates/
I sincerely hope this man gets run over by a car.
REBLOG!
THIS IS WHY I STATE BRING YOUR OWN CONDOMS!
DON’T LIKE, REBLOG!
Signal boosting in case anyone needed to know this.
This is informative as heck. Show this to everyone!
This is actually some great info! Why can’t they teach this kind of thing in school??
Wow, I’ve taken health and sex ed three times during my educational process and never learned any of this. Thanks.
Definitely some important information here!
this is supa awesome. i do think it should be noted that side effects of EC *really* vary. when I took EC I didn’t have any symptoms whatsoever.
Its really sad that in my country we don’t have EC pills because people still believe it is like an abortion. I have even heard of health professionals saying that! Ugh…
I’ve had to take this twice, and I just felt a bit out of sorts – the way you do when a heavy period is on its way.
And in the UK there are two ways to get hold of it.
Go to your GP’s walk-in, or a women’s health, or sexual health clinic, and you can be prescribed it.
Alternatively you can buy it at a chemist counter. They should take you to a small consulting room/ quiet corner and ask you briefly your medical history so they know whether they’re safe to sell it to you. They will also talk to you about other methods of contraception. So don’t feel like they’re trying to lecture you, it’s just what they have to do when they sell it. It is more expensive when you buy it without a prescription (the last time I bought it I paid about £22.00 for it) but it’s the quickest way to get hold of it.
EDITED TO ADD
It’s called Levonelle in the UK, so if you’re feeling awkward about asking for ‘the morning after pill’ or ‘emergency contraception’ in the chemist, just ask for the brand name and they’ll know what you mean.
A pregnant woman has had her baby forcibly removed by caesarean section by social workers.
Essex social services obtained a High Court order against the woman that allowed her to be forcibly sedated and her child to be taken from her womb.
The council said it was acting in the best interests of the woman, an Italian who was in Britain on a work trip, because she had suffered a mental breakdown.If you are not absolutely terrified and outraged by this you are wrong. The precedent this sets put every person on earth in danger.
oh my god read the article this is FUCKING HORRIFIC. she got back on her bipolar disorder medication and is in recovery but they won’t give her her child back “because of the risk she might relapse”. What you’re fucking saying with that is that mentally ill people shouldn’t even be allowed children even if they’re safe and well *just in case*, that we’re a permanent threat to ourselves and others even when we’re in treatment and recovery and living a stable life. I am FUCKING LIVID
Over a fucking panic attack. I’m fucking serious, all of this over a single panic attack. They took her baby in the most horrific way possible because she had a fucking panic attack.
From the Article:
She suffered a panic attack, which her relations believe was due to her failure to take regular medication for an existing bipolar condition.
It’s worth noting, that it’s very common for people on psychiatric medication to go off of their meds if they become pregnant, because of risk of side effects.
I bolded the above. I wanted there to be no one to think that she was being irresponsible for not haven taken her meds regularly. She did it for good reason, for the health of her own baby. And she got punished for it.
i fucking cant
So she did what was best for her kid, has ONE SINGLE PANIC ATTACK WHICH IS A THING THAT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE WHETHER THEY HAVE A MENTAL ILLNESS OR NOT and decide that they can literally violate her body in a horrific manner and take her kid away. But she’s the dangerous one.
Terribly sad. I hope this gets worked out in her benefit.
I can’t even imagine how terrifyingly awful that situation had to have been. Forcing a woman, against her will, to undergo sedation and then waking up in pain, without the fetus you’ve been carrying for 9 months? That’s beyond the pale. How much do the rights of an unborn fetus circumvent the rights of a full-grown adult? How much do we have to other the mentally ill, treating them (us) as less than human? She was literally treated like a breeding animal, with no cause of concern for her safety, mental health or well-being. Fuck. Fuck.
This is literally the stuff that horror movies are made of.
When K was relating this story to me, I couldn’t believe it until I read the article for myself. Have we really gotten to the point that a woman who, even just from the stress of being pregnant, has a panic attack can legally have her baby ripped out of her body and be thrown into a mental institution? Did we slip back into the 19th century, because I don’t recall any horse-drawn buggies going by outside.
This is why we need mental health reform. This is why we need women’s rights. This is why we need to treat fellow humans like fucking humans, not livestock to be cast aside when they seem a little “off.”
Likewise, fuck.
