    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Rhode Island House Passes Marriage Bill By Overwhelming Margin

    2013-01-29 17:38:57View | Delete

    Is there a chance it’ll clear the Senate committee and get to the floor, though?

    Better wording would be “Randall’s statement prompts the question: What was all the fuss about?”

    To beg the question means to assume the conclusion in the premises.

    A woman who is disgusted by the mere existence of women… how sad is that?

    45 beers has the same amount of alcohol as 45 shots of distilled liquor or 9 whole bottles of wine. With several times the volume. That’s more than enough alcohol to turn anyone crazy. But anyone so vastly beerlogged is better suited to extinguishing fires instead of starting them.

    Oh my God that is so beautiful. Thank you!

    “We don’t believe there is such a thing as a gay teen, because no teen is mature enough to define himself as gay.”

    How insulting to young people! The age group that we librarians call “young adult.” That statement is not only insulting, it’s utter horseshit as anybody with a lick of common sense could see.

    Funny, it doesn’t seem that long since Huckabee was promoting veggies and speaking out against greasy unhealthy chain fast food. But it was about 10 years ago he went on his health food kick, right? Now he seems to have reached a different assessment of which side his political bread is greased on.

    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Pope to nuns: stop worrying about the poor and sick, focus on the homos

    2012-04-22 14:46:56View | Delete

    The CDF is the Vatican goon squad that sucker-punched the nuns. The CDF is the new name given to the Roman Inquisition. This is literally the modern Inquisition being used to silence women.

    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Colorism to the max: skin whitening product for private parts

    2012-04-06 13:26:37View | Delete

    I’m blessed with a Mediterranean olive complexion, which I love and would not change for all the world. But at my age I’ve developed some discolored areas on my face, which people of my genetic heritage are sometimes susceptible to. I prefer to even out the skin tone. But I use gentle concealer makeup for that. It doesn’t work perfectly, but I’m at peace with that. The idea of bleaching or otherwise chemically assaulting my skin is horrifying to me. Especially after seeing those SA pics. And lay the hell off of my pussy with that shit!

    It goes to illustrate the arrogance of power and the snafu principle. When you get so high and mighty, you’re at greater risk of making bad decisions because the only people you allow close to you are those who tell you what you want to hear.

    Correction–it has the ł (the Polish letter L with a slash through it) and the original pronunciation is gwo-vat-ski.

    Glowacki sounds like it could be the name of a phosphorescent plastic toy from Wham-O.

    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Q Of The Day: What To Think — What To Do — With Visual Gender Cues

    2011-10-31 10:28:26View | Delete

    In the real world, there is no “outside of the real world.” Hypotheses of unreality don’t interest me when it comes to living my life as a woman. Only the cold hard reality of looking out for my own security every day is what matters.

    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Trans Activist/HRC Board Member Meghan Stabler And Marriage Equality

    2011-10-18 06:03:07View | Delete

    For a trans woman to renege on her own self and say “I am a man” is a complete contradiction of her struggle to transition and be her true self. It’s a damned lie and it sets back all of us! I bitterly, vehemently, reject this tactic and urge all trans people to shun it.

    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Safety First: A Call to note the oft-forgotten on National Coming Out Day

    2011-10-10 10:57:07View | Delete

    I was all for it. I indeed came out at work on National Coming Out Day a few years ago. In less than 4 weeks, I was out of a job. The reason given was that being trans was classified as a mental disorder, therefore I was ruled crazy for having transitioned. They gave me that reason in writing, just because they could, because the laws didn’t protect me from discrimination.

    How depressing… I have to wonder how some of you can stand a daily news diet of this poison.

    A clutch is a small handbag. So a VIP clutch a small handbag passed out to participants as a souvenir, stamped with the Presidential Seal and the date. Sometimes they come stuffed with freebie makeup or condoms or whatnot.

    Hypatia1 commented on the blog post Keeping the memory of Carl Walker-Hoover alive as Bachmann says ‘Anti-Gay Bullying ‘Not A Federal Issue’’

    2011-09-19 11:56:34View | Delete

    To oppose anti-bullying legislation out of nothing but homophobia is plainly evil by any definition of the word evil. Unalloyed, unmitigated, obvious evil. Shame on Bachmann.
