thisiswhiteprivilege: White privilege is being able to say “it’s just a song/movie/tv show/joke” and ignore the implicit and explicit racism that PoC find inescapable.

Anonymous asked: I noticed your post on 'As Far as the Eye Can See'. I am really addicted to the story. It's really good. Yet I get a little uncomfortable with Sam cuz of his past despite his changes. The story gives me life but I know that in real life I would prob be completely against their relationship (again based on his past). You always have interesting views on race relations .What is your...

I prefer the term “standard” to proper, but I appreciate the spirit of this comment.

amberagron: Can you have a same sex OTP and an opposite sex OTP for one character? I just feel some kind of way about that. Like I’m discriminating in a way. *Sigh* I’m shipping Sancedes really hard. Like how I ship Samcedes hard. Or…have a harem. :-D

You know that moment when you’re reading a book and you just have to stop and bite your lip and squeal or sigh or close your eyes and wrinkle your nose and forehead and press the book against your heart and just like sit there and try to soak up the gorgeous literature via osmosis? That’s my favorite part of reading.

amberagron: I’m confused as all heck right now. Read More [[MORE]] Apparently you actually can’t feel a man ejaculating inside of you; it’s already messy and creamy down there, especially if the vagina was properly ready. However, yeah; if they were that concerned about no pregnancy, then Plan B would happen, unless they are anti contraception for one reason or another.

And why are all of Mercedes’ (and Tina’s) female ships relegated to the friendzone? And if they’re not, the only female romantic ship she ever seems to get is with Tina…with whom she actually has the least amount of sexual tension?

the-bitch-goddess-success: So, I posted those incarceration facts on Facebook. One of my friends said this: “It kinda bugs me that people give white people shit for not being equally represented in jail. Sure there are economic inequalities that tend to set Caucasians ahead of ethnicities financially and thus make them less likely to commit crime, but that doesn’t make it Caucasians’ FAULT...

Because the tags are always full of them -
I feel some kind of way with these rp ads where Mercedes/Amber is single and there is no other player in the RP who even considers her as a viable shipping interest, save for the occasional Sam Evans; and even more, when everyone lists every character but her (and sometimes Tina, but even she will get more love).

Anonymous asked: I don't think it is ignorant to like a character because of reasons like gender, race and/or sexuality when it isn't the privileged gender, race and/or sexuality. Like if there are six men and one woman in a movie I'm probably going to favor the woman (if she is not an awful character) because she is a woman. If every gender, race and sexuality were equally represented in the media...
