"

processing, which, to me, means trying to understand and move beyond, is me-centric.

forgiveness, which, to me, requires empathy and being the bigger person and pushing down how something makes me feel, is him-centric.

being the bigger person is much, much over-rated.

"I think it’s degrading to women to say porn is inherently degrading to women. Of course, not all women choose porn out of desire or free agency, and especially during Sexual Assault Awareness Month, we should be cognizant of this fact and the institutional factors that make it so. But many women consume and/or participate in porn actively and frequently, with enjoyment and discerning ethics. Discounting our participation erases our sexual agency and restricts our free sexual expression."

"maybe my problem is that it all feels other-ish. like in trying to feel good about ourselves we’ve further perpetuated the idea that there’s something fundamentally strange or wrong about ourselves. the fact that we’re submitting proof that some fat people are sexy is in agreement with ideas that being fat is inherently un-sexy, right?"
