Lady reporters too sexy for Twitter
jessicavalenti:
In case you didn’t see this gem, media and politics blog FishbowlDC thinks that female journalists should stop being so damn sexy in their Twitter avatars. They even provide some examples of these scandalously whorish women with a couple of happy looking ladyreporters, and ask readers to send in similarly slutty pics.

tobitastic:
Safe sex information is almost universally designed for non-trans (and straight) folks, and then that information is given to us when and where it applies. However, there is a lot of information that is unique to trans people and trans bodies that never gets included. This zine answers the question, what would sex ed look like if it was...

Trans*/gender non-conforming individuals within...
squared-em:
would you be interested in participating in a Skype interview answering the following questions:
why is it important for trans*/gender non-conforming individuals to have a visible presence within the feminist community?
what are some ways in which cis-gender and fellow trans*/gender non-conforming individuals can be more inclusive on both a personal scale and a large scale?

Miss Piggy On Beauty
homeisaheartbeat:
What are your top beauty tips?
Start out perfect and don’t change a thing. Always accentuate your best features by pointing at them. And conceal your flaws by sucker punching anyone who has the audacity to mention them.

The excellent Chris Coltrane’s ‘letter of application’ to UniLad, a site that likes to make ‘jokes’ glorifying sexual violence. [Parody]

I was the only student invited. I guess because there’s no black faculty and they wanted to make the guest poet feel comfortable. So why not invite a black student who is an English major and...
