Today for Black History Month, we honor lesbian icon Gladys Bentley, who is a pianist, entertainer, and a blues singer of the Harlem Renaissance.Harlem during the roaring twenties was a time where racial, cultural and sexual boundaries seemed permeable in a way that they hadn’t been before.
While living in a place where she wasn’t entirely accepted, Bentley never backed down. Bentley questioned her identity as a child and showed an interest in women at 8 years old, with a crush on a female schoolteacher. After her public marriage in 1931, Bentley continued performing in gay clubs like Mona’s, the country’s first openly lesbian nightclub.

Skeptical Liberalism
TERFs are trash. If your “feminism” has as a tenet the supposition that trans women are engaged in the “erasure” of women, you are not someone worthy of polite company.
Yes, you. I am challenging you, if you are thinking about a snarky reply. I am talking to you, person about to reply that “men can’t just decide to be women.” You’re trash. Garbage.
Trans men are men, trans women are women. Keep your concerns as to the gender of other people to what is in your own pants, and out of others. Thanks.

Today for Black History Month, we honor Josephine Baker. She is one of the first internationally recognized African American entertainers who identifies as bisexual. After facing abuse and racial discrimination in America, she moved to France where she became a celebrated performer and the first black woman to star in a major motion picture. When she returned to the U.S. a decade later, American audiences rejected her, with The New York Times calling her, “a negro wench”. She used her platform to advocate for desegregation, refused to perform in segregated venues and even spoke at the 1963 March on Washington.
Sex with Timaree
I'll say it again: if Harris is the nominee in 2020, she has my vote against any Republican. But if she wants to ride LGBT community support to that point, she has to reckon with her attempts to block treatment for trans folks in prison.
There *Are* Asexual Polyamorous People, You Know - Poly.Land
A lot of people assume that this idea that polyamory is about having loving, committed relationships is all a bunch of hooey. Secretly, they argue, deep down inside, all polyamorists are looking for is sex. It’s about the sex. The ease of having more access to greater sexual variety. And the abili...

Non-binary NASA intern goes viral for hitting out at Trump's trans military ban
It comes after a Supreme Court ruling backed the Trump administration's planned policy.
Transgender Resource Center of New Mexico
Bad news out of the Supreme Court this morning.
"The Supreme Court on Tuesday revived the Trump administration’s policy of barring most transgender people from serving in the military. In a brief, unsigned order, the justices temporarily stayed trial court decisions blocking the policy while litigation in the lower courts moves forward.
The vote was 5 to 4. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen G. Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan dissented."
How Human Bones Reveal the Fallacy of a Biological Sex Binary
Science keeps showing us that sex also doesn't fit in a binary, whether it be determined by genitals, chromosomes, hormones, or skeletons.
Alex Sebastian Morgan
"Too often, for Cohen and countless other LGBTQ patients across the country, the problem begins not in the exam room but in the classroom — physicians lack sufficient training in how to provide competent, affirming care for patients who identify as members of sexual and gender minority (SGM) groups, especially for transgender people.
This educational gap has led to alarming health disparities for SGM patients, experts report. According to Healthy People 2020, a program of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, transgender people alone experience disproportionate rates of suicide, homelessness, substance use, HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases, mental health disorders, and victimization, yet they also confront barriers to accessing effective health care.
Students, faculty, and staff at Harvard Medical School (HMS) are joining forces to change that.
This fall, Harvard Medical School launched the Sexual and Gender Minorities Health Equity Initiative, a three-year plan to amend the core M.D. curriculum so that all students and faculty clinicians can become exceptionally well equipped to provide high-quality, holistic health care for sexual and gender minority patients of all ages. The plan encompasses curriculum reform, faculty development, continuous quality assessment, and global dissemination, as well as increased efforts to recruit and support students, faculty, and staff with interests or experience in SGM health."

Approximately 75% of people living with HIV globally were aware of their HIV status in 2017. The remaining 25% (over 9 million people) still need access to HIV testing services. HIV testing is an essential gateway to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support services.

Trans People Say They #WontBeErased As Trump Administration Mulls Defining 'Sex'

***UPDATE : Thank you all for your enthusiasm!! I received over 1500 requests for books, and I'm gonna try to honor all (or most) of them, but as shipping will be quite expensive (15 to 20$ each package), I won't take any new message until the GoFundMe campaign has reached at least the first goal. So please pledge to the compaign or share it so I can send as many as possible!
The Body Is Not an Apology
“In my reporting I heard from several people who said that the word is particularly troubling for trans and gender-nonconforming people. “As a transgender woman, I consciously began trying to stop using guys some years ago,” says Brad Ward, a college counselor at a high school in Atherton, California. She added, “When I’m included with a group that is called guys, there’s some pain, since it takes me back to my male days in a way that I’d rather not go.””
❤️💙💚💛🧡💜🌈🌈🌈
The ruling is a victory for many who have fought to end discrimination against same-sex couples.

"I think eating disorders often go undetected in the LGBTQ community because there aren’t always safe places for us to access resources."
