“A long-term study of children raised by lesbians found that these children were less likely to suffer from physical and sexual abuse than were their peers who were raised by heterosexuals. This is thought to be due to the absence of adult heterosexual men in the households (Gartrell, Bos, & Goldberg, 2010). Girls raised by lesbians tend to have higher self-esteem, show more maturity and tolerance than their peers, and are older when they have their first heterosexual contact (Gartrell et al., 2005, 2010). Children raised by same-sex parents seem to be less constrained by traditional gender roles; boys are less aggressive, and girls are more inclined to consider nontraditional careers, such as doctor, lawyer, or engineer (Gartrell et al., 2005; Stacey & Biblarz, 2001). Over the course of more than 20 years, scientists studied the psychological adjustment of 78 teenagers who were raised by lesbian mothers. Compared to age-matched counterparts raised by heterosexual parents, these adolescents were rated higher in social, academic, and total competence, and lower in social problems, rule-breaking, aggression, and externalizing problem behavior (Gartrell & Bos, 2010). There are fewer studies of children raised by two men, but gay fathers are more likely than straight fathers to put their children before their career, to make big changes in their lives to accommodate a child, and to strengthen bonds with their extended families after becoming fathers (Bergman, Rubio, Green, & Padrone, 2010).” ~ Martha Rosenthal, Human Sexuality: From Cells to Society, p.247.

I love that this is cited and sourced ahhhh. Actual researched support! So good.

I will always support girls who figure out that they’re lesbians after thinking they were bisexual and girls who figure out that they’re bisexual after thinking they were lesbians. It can be really hard to determine whether what you are feeling is compulsory heterosexuality or genuine attraction, and we should always show a girl love and support when she tries to figure that out and when she does figure it out.

The current status of Tumblr.

About 2 months ago, I stumbled onto child pornographers on tumblr. It came up on my dash and I couldn’t believe it. I immediately unfollowed the user and reported the blog to Tumblr itself.

They emailed me that they had received the report and were working on it. I communicated with them on a daily basis asking why the blog was still up and what they were doing. It was almost TWO WEEKS before anything was done about it.

Im not surprised this is happening, and I’ve lost quite a lot of faith in the site. I run two blogs right now, this one, and @Somecutething which has now been flagged as NSFW. Which doesn’t make any sense because it’s a cute animal blog.

What doesn’t make any sense to me is HOW DOES CHILD PORNOGRAPHY GO UNNOTICED BY @staff FOR SO LONG!?!? Tumblr has let those kids down. Tumblr fucked up and needs to know they fucked up. I’m glad Apple and the iOS store took a stand.

If I find anything, ANYTHING with Child pornography on it I’m not relying on Tumblr Staff anymore to take it down, I will report it straight to NCMEC or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. They’ll actually make sure that something is done.

Good info
