“Native Americans have fought hard to be allowed to have cultural identity — a basic right that was outlawed by the government until relatively recently. So yes, seeing a spray-tan sexy Pocahontas raising her hand in “hau” is more than an annoyance. It trivializes the fight that my parents and grandparents devoted their lives to. It trivializes my life and my sense of self. And I refuse to believe that any decent person would tell me to move on, to get over it, or to be flattered by it. My great-grandmother is not a Halloween costume. This shouldn’t be so hard to understand.”

- Itacawin

To the people who like to appropriate Native American culture. Take very close notes.

If you’re great grand mother was a “Cherokee Princess” why would you mock and dishonor her? - the question no “costume play” racist will ever answer, though hey swear they’re 1/14 *insert random romanized First Native and add a western royalty title*

Something that makes me happy is we still don’t know what the one time was, because it’s not when they’re married. He says that’s when he’ll tell her his name but instead he reveals that he’s really inside the teselecta.

She also didn’t learn it at Trenzalore - she already knew it, and that’s why it was spoken. So everyone saying we’re done seeing River for awhile, let me tell you, we still have some serious business to address between these two. And I am happy to wait to find out what it is, because that means we get more River guest starring on the way there.

River also said she made him tell her (all sorts of naughty thoughts came to mind, baha!) but I’m sure it was a good reason.

My Culture is Not a Cash Cow!

My Culture is Not a Cash Cow!:

inriri:

Disney has continually attempted to “include” Latin American culture in an attempt to make money, including trying to trademark Day of the Dead.

Disney’s been attempting to profit from Latinos a lot recently - from a fake “Latina” character that was pulled back on a new show, to their disastrous attempt to trademark Day of the Dead, now they’ve released a line of god-awful, ridiculously expensive quinceanera dresses.

I’m not necessarily expecting this petition to make them stop, but I want Disney to realize that they’ve been overstepping and continue to do so. Mickey Mouse, the Colonizer, is coming for your culture.

Latin@s are not your personal cash cow, Disney! Stop trying to make money off of us.

"I asked all of the gay male students in the room to raise their hand if in the past week they..."

Wed, 22 May 2013 12:39:37 -0400

“I asked all of the gay male students in the room to raise their hand if in the past week they touched a woman’s body without her consent. After a moment of hesitation, all of the hands of the gay men in the room went up. I then asked the same gay men to raise their hand if in the past week they offered a woman unsolicited advice about how to “improve” her body or her fashion. Once again, after a moment of hesitation, all of the hands in the room went up.

These questions came after a brief exploration of gay men’s relationship to American fashion and women’s bodies. That dialogue included recognizing that gay men in the United States are often hailed as the experts of women’s fashion and by proxy women’s bodies. In addition to this there is a dominant logic that suggests that because gay men have no conscious desire to be sexually intimate with women, our uninvited touching and groping (physical assault) is benign.””

- Gay Men’s Sexism and Women’s Bodies by Yolo Akili (via plightofthepretty)

I DO NOT want to hear from a single gay man that he is immune to misogyny and male privilege. NOT ONCE.

If River Song can concentrate on a dress size and this is her second regeneration, why can't the Doctor concentrate on becoming a ginger?

inflammatorystatements:

Woman Time Lords can control the way they will look when they regenerate, while male Time Lords cannot. This was established in Classic Who, when Romana regenerated.

Also, the Doctor wanting to be Ginger is not about the hair color. In Gallifrey, the only ones to have red hair were the people called Heroes which were beings who were time-sentient (meaning they could see all of the time at the same time). So I doubt they will ever make him ginger.
