Élève : Madame, ça existe, une éléphante ?

Moi : Techniquement, oui. Mais ça s’appelle quand même un éléphant que ce soit un mâle ou une femelle. De la même façon, une baleine, ça peut être un mâle ou une femelle !

Élève : :O ça existe, des baleines mâles ??!

TIL the world’s oldest beer advertisement was on a Mesopotamian Stone Tablet dated approximately 4000 BC. It read “Drink Elba, the beer with the heart of a lion” and was accompanied by a “large breasted woman holding goblets of beer in each hand”

I reblog this every time I see it. I just cant

THIS IS WHERE THE MEME CAME FROM

Seriously, though, the French LOVED Edgar Allan Poe,
thanks in particular to Jules Verne.

He even wrote a sequel to Poe’s only novel,
and numerous essays about how great an author Poe was.

By all accounts, Poe (who lived a penniless life in the US)
really *was* baffled by all of this.

Reblogging because I never saw that part before!

“biological sex is a social construct” doesn’t mean “chromosomes, anatomy, hormones, and genitalia don’t exist”. it means “these exist, but assigning roles, labels, and expectations to certain combinations of these characteristics is a social construct, and an unnecessary and pointless (actually harmful) one at that”.

“what would you tell your 12 year old self?”

me: aye you a lesbian homie

One thing that people with age gaps don’t consider is what the younger person could REPRESENT to the older. When I was 17 I “dated” a 34 year old man for a couple weeks. It gave me a bad feeling and I broke it off before any damage was done to me… but later I was told that he had a thing for some girls under 12. He didn’t really care for me, I was just a nearly legal stand in for some of his HORRIBLE impulses. Good older people simply aren’t interested in younger people romantically.

so often just admiring butches, whether from afar or more intimately, stirs up this almost uncomprehending excitement in me – it will hit me, all at once, how butches truly are the most beautiful people on the planet and just how goddamn lucky I am to know that and be able to appreciate them in so many ways. lucky. that’s how I feel around butches. lucky such gorgeous, incredible women would even give me the time of day.
