Rants

[alitheapipkin]

When discussing marriage equality, can we please use 'same-sex' and 'opposite sex' marriage? Referring to them as 'gay' marriage and 'heterosexual' marriage makes all of us bisexual people invisible and it is VERY ANNOYING! I am not becoming straight just because I'm marrying a man.This rant is bought to you by listening to Women's Hour this

I hear you on both of these.

'Real sized' and 'real women have curves' and so on are just so depressing. What do these people think thin women are made of, plastic?

[alitheapipkin]

Well quite!
Although, to be fair, I appear to have misunderstood the person I assumed was guilty of this. But the rant still stands for the numerous other people I've witnessed who do mean it that way.

And I'm plus-sized and significantly lacking in curves, as my weight goes on round my waist. I'm turning cylindrical!

[rosathome]

Cylinders have curves!

Rant away!

Thanks :)

Although I'm thinking I might try something more constructive now, like washing up, doing some knitting and then cooking dinner.

Gizmo is flaked out next to me with her head on my rolled up towel improvised wrist-rest - oh to live the life of a spoiled moggy!

Yes! :) My pansexual girlfriend with no boobs approves of these rants :D

[usmu]

Amen! To both rants and your icon.

I co-sign all that. Very rant worthy.
