“Visually representing or presencing the lesbian erotic has always been difficult for lesbians. Unlike gay men, who have been free to depict differing modes of sexual practice for their own pleasure, lesbians have had difficulty escaping the ever-present male gaze. The representation of two women engaged in sexual or sexualized activities remains extremely problematic because, traditionally lesbians have been portrayed as objects for male fantasies of lesbian eroticism.”
— Harmony Hammond, “Camping Out in the Southwest,” in Out West (Santa Fe: Plan B Evolving Arts, 1999), unpaginated.
i strongly recommend that people add things like “gender critical”, “radfem”, “radical feminism”, “terf”, and “terfsafe” to their filtered tags. tumblr’s blacklist system will hide reblogged posts if the op put one of your filtered tags on it. this is a really easy way to not accidentally reblog posts by transmisogynists so often. it filters posts both on desktop and on mobile. and you can always click to view the post and double check the op if you want.
on mobile: go to settings > general settings > filtering > +new
on desktop: settings > account > scroll down to filtering and click the lil pencil

I’m back on making wholesome, friend-loving memes
the idea that anyone who approaches sex in an unconventional way (asexuals, kinky people) is LGBT is a direct product of the perception of gay sex as deviant and strange
