“Let boys be masculine! Let them be strong and assertive! Let girls be soft and pretty and scared to walk out at night! Let girls love boys and boys love girls! Support your local conglomerates that produces pink drones! Pink navy jets against breast cancer!”
she lost the internship bcuz a bunch of alt right shitheads saw this blow up and found out she was trans and started dogpiling her and sending a bunch of shit to nasa about it lmao
“
She reached out to me with an unnecessary apology which I heartily accepted and returned with my own. After talking to her, I am certain she deserves a position in the aerospace industry and I’m doing all I can to secure her one that will be better than she lost. I have also talked to the folks that had to do with her internship and made absolutely certain that there will be no black mark on her record.

It’s all good folks
The term “safe space” originates in LGBT communities and designates a place where homophobia isn’t tolerated.
The argument usually goes that safe spaces keep people from encountering ideas they disagree with, that they have an infantilizing and silencing effect.
I respond that when gay people are so sheltered that they have no idea what homophobia is, well, then I’ll admit that maybe things have gone a bit too far.
In the meantime, gay people not experiencing enough homophobia is not really striking me as a pressing social issue.
having a personal sense of style is gay culture and the reason why gay men are seen as fashionable and lesbians as tacky is because the standards are so low for men and so high for women send post
and FURTHERMORE the standards set for women are centered around how appealing they are to men and not actually about style at all a lot of the time. Lesbian style doesn’t care what men find attractive and is therefore considered “wrong”
