Sapphic As Fuck Books That You Haven’t Heard Of

yeah bitches i’m back and I have some God Dang Thoughts. all of them are about sapphic novels I’ve read this year and have seen nothing about on this platform!! sapphic fiction is getting its day in the sun and y'all have not yet NOTICED and it’s time to fix that

anyway read my fucking weird gay books you’re welcome

I can’t really understand people who complain about the possibility in “TEO: Skyrim” to marry a same-sex NPC ‘cause “it doesn’t fit with the whole medieval setting of the series”. Yeah, you’re right, how could Bethesda dare to do something so anachronistic? I mean, the wonderful Middle Ages, such a beautiful period. Remember those old good times when we could marry hot lizards?

Yeah Me neither

Ah yes, the Elder Scrolls, the medieval setting complete with orbital space stations, time-traveling cyborg demigods, and magic email.

Plus, institutions very like same-gender marriage did exist in medieval Europe. Up until around the 13th Century, “spiritual brotherhood” ceremonies that were identical to marriages all but in name - including joining hands and reciting prayers at an altar and a ceremonial kiss at the end - were commonly performed between two men. Though prohibitions against the practice began to arise in the early 1300s (prohibitions which in themselves constitute evidence for the prevalence of such ceremonies - you don’t specifically ban something that never happens!), it’s believed that in some regions it persisted well into the 16th Century.

(And that’s without even touching on the matter of pirates…)

Vacation in Costa Rica with my fiancé, sister, and her fiancé. One of the best trips ever!!!

Tilda Swinton risked arrest waving a rainbow flag in front of the Kremlin in violation of Russia’s new homosexual propaganda bill. And she wants everyone who can to reblog it in solidarity.

Guys please reblog this, it won’t ruin your blog, this is important

“Newlyweds in Australia shaded opponents of marriage equality Down Under in the most epic way: Stuart Henshall and James Brechney shredded “Vote No” posters into confetti for their wedding Saturday atop a float at Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.

The couple, who both campaigned for marriage equality, held onto the homophobic fliers after the nationwide postal vote.”

So I just heard about “Primed: The Back Pocket Guide for Trans Men and the Men Who Dig Them.” It’s the first sexual health resource written by and for gay, bi and queer trans men/ transmasculine people, put out by Rainbow Health Ontario, and it’s a very frank guide that answers basically any questions you might have about safer sex. They’ve released it for free download here.

A similar guide geared towards trans women/ transfeminine people (though not really sexual orientation specific) is “BRAZEN: Trans Women’s Safer Sex Guide.”

We have always been here.

My grandmother spent her teen years as a chambermaid in a Nantucket hotel during the summer. This was the 1920s. She once showed us a photo of her and the other young women in their uniforms, standing in front of the hotel. She pointed to two women in the group and said they were girlfriends.

“I didn’t even know women could do that!” she said, in a tone that was more delighted than scandalized.

All I ever wanted and more ❤️ @liberatedlove

Awww♥️

Remember us? Almost 3 years of knowing you and almost 2 years of being in love with you, I got really lucky with you.

Grateful that I’ve had days full of you

this caption is incredibly misleading.

this isn’t sylvia rivera “calling out gays and lesbians.”

watch the linked video.

this is sylvia rivera calling out the white middle class, mainstream gay rights movement for not doing shit for the most at risk people of the community, like trans folks (particularly trans women), poor and homeless folks, poc (particularly black folks), drug users, etc.

the caption above seems really reductive and ignores the fact that the lesbian, gay, AND bi folks she was calling out were majority cis, WHITE, middle class people.
