I work with other people's sexuality, yet I'm still discovering my own. What moves me, attracts me, awakens me? The more I learn about my body, the more I realize how much remains unknown. And I love that ✨

Remember how Speaker #MikeJohnson talked about how he and his son use #CovenantEyes mutual #surveillance to check whether each other have been viewing porn? (Remember how Josh Duggar used the same software?)

The SCREEN Act is an attempt by #MikeLee to impose a similar degree of religious #voyeurism and #censorship throughout the #USA and everywhere using #US based Internet services. It would require every site that allows any form of user-generated content to collect ID from every user, and would criminalize any publication of facts (as opposed to Mike Lee's narrow-minded counterfactual dogma) about #sex, #gender, #sexuality, or #genderIdentity. It would also specifically ID verification to accessing the web from any known #VPN egress point.

A quotation from Joseph Joubert

My dreams are more amorous than my actions have ever been.

Hmmmm... Why am I having #DejaVu?

From 2022: "Vladimir #Putin has mentioned 'gender freedoms' more than once to justify #Russia’s war against #Ukraine and simultaneously crack down on its own citizens.

"Most directly, he alleged that Russian citizens who seek '#GenderFreedoms' (alongside foie gras and oysters) are part of the anti-Russian 'fifth column.'

"Gender and sexuality freedoms — or rights, as they are more typically called — are about #BodilyAutonomy, #diversity and #inclusivity. #Feminist and #LGBTQ+ activists assert that every human being deserves respect, recognition and equal rights regardless of their gender or sexuality.

"What’s the connection between Putin’s animosity toward Ukraine and toward #gender and #sexuality rights in Russia and around the world?

Gender and Putin’s regime

"Putin’s regime has increasingly relied on very conventional gender and sexual norms.

"When he first ascended to the presidency, image-makers used Putin’s #KGB background and penchant for physical fitness to frame him as a #macho #strongman who could reverse Russia’s waning power and 'remasculinize' the country after a decade of supposed geopolitical flaccidity in the wake of the #Soviet collapse.

"In other words, an inflexible and clearly #patriarchal notion of masculinity has been central to the Putin regime’s legitimacy.

"Russia’s foreign policy has relied on rigid gender norms as well. When Ukraine underwent its first pro-democracy revolution in 2004, Russian media questioned its leaders’ masculinity.

"Putin likewise used homophobic terms to dismiss #Georgia’s #RoseRevolution in 2003, responding to a reporter’s question by saying: 'A rose revolution — next they’ll come up with a light blue one.' In Russian, 'light blue' or goluboi is slang for “gay male.”

Gender and appealing to constituencies

"Putin has often been represented as the unquestioned leader of the pack ruling Russia — a masculinity-driven image.

"However, even as the leader of a personalist #dictatorship — a regime in which there are few institutional limits on the leader’s power — Putin must balance competing interests among significant elites and maintain at least the appearance of public support in order to be considered a legitimate ruler.

"Until 2020, Putin was using gendered language in his speeches to signal his alignment with a variety of elites and public constituencies that supported him. He was sending mixed signals to both relatively progressive Russians who value women’s roles in the workplace and to #conservatives wishing for a return to '#TraditionalFamilyValues,' in order to keep everyone in his camp.

"But after July 2021, when he published an essay contending Ukrainians and Russians are a single people, Putin no longer shied away from making sexist and LGBTQ+-phobic comments in prominent settings.

"At an October 2021 meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club — a Moscow-based think tank and discussion forum that Putin is closely associated with — he said teaching children about #GenderFluidity was 'truly monstrous' and 'verging on a crime against humanity.'"

Dr. Anderson’s paper, which is relatively easy to read for non-specialist readers can be read and downloaded for free here:

Since getting comfortable with locating myself firmly on the #aromantic & #asexual & #queer spectrum, I’m thinking a lot about compulsive #heterosexuality / #sexuality and compulsive #romanticlove as a model for intimacy and how women are taught through the Love myth to self-enforce patriarchal misogynistic patterns of behaviour. Ellie Anderson’s explanation of her concept of hermeneutical labor is really good at making clear how these mechanisms actually work.

“If possible, of course, some bad luck could be produced for the victims or for their institution. Pranks, you know. But again, this is not necessary, and may even get in the way of our pure experiment in mind-fuck and image-manipulation. Let the bastards produce their own bad luck out of their inner sadness at being such evil assholes, out of their atavistic superstition (without which they wouldn’t be such media-wizards), out of their fear of otherness, out of their repressed sexuality. You can be sure they will – or at least, that they’ll remember the ‘curse’ every time something bad happens to them.”

WHAT IS KINK? An essay in thread form.

This thread is about kink and sexuality. It is primarily text with a bit of imagery, but there are some who may be offended by the subject matter itself. So out of respect for the Mastodon community, I’ll be putting the rest of this thread behind Content Warnings.
