Building an Abolitionist Trans & Queer Movement with Everything We’ve Got

from Captive Genders (eds. Stanley and Smith) (2011) by Morgan Bassichis, Alex Lee, and Dean Spade. 

This is pretty accurate. Gay marriage only alleviates these issues for those who 1) get married and 2) whose socio-economic status affords them privileges like health care they can share with a partner, whereas the queer solutions recognise that many of our issues are shared with people outside the queer community with POC, the disabled, women, and other groups (and the queer intersections of those groups) and work to make the situation better for every disadvantaged and oppressed group, not just those we perceive to be just like us – that is, unlike gay marriage which mostly only benefits heteronormative white gays and lesbians, queer resistance (as described here) is concerned about fixing the causes of the problems which intersectionally affect many groups. Gay marriage is a very sloppy patch atop a decayed and amoral system and has been accepted by the mainstream precisely because it doesn’t challenge or upset the status quo. It is patriarchal, white, income-privileged, and aside from normalising sexual relationship between two people of the same gender (so long as they marry!), it does nothing to help single queer people raising children, undocumented queer people, queer people in non-monogamous relationships, queer people in polyamorous relationships, and so on. It is as stodgy and uninnovative a change as could possibly have been made, and that is precisely is why gay marriage because THE solution for achieving gay rights, because it doesn’t actually change anything – it just ever so slightly broadens the privileged caste to include people for whom their sexual orientation was the only thing keeping them out of the clubhouse in the first place.

3: A fictional person that you think would be good in bed:

     Dale from Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. I think he’d be sweet and submissive and also he’s srsly fucking hot.

47: What is one song you’d like to have sex to?

     I dunno, I usually just play whatever’s on my mix and don’t pay much attention to it. I suppose Video Games by Lana Del Rey cuz it makes the special dude happy.

59: How would you feel about taking someones virginity?

     We’d have to talk about it first, make sure that we both were clear on what was going to happen and how we would feel afterwards. So I suppose a little nervous.

6: The most awkward moment during a sexual experience was when ______________
I can’t really think of any. I guess there was a time I had to tell a guy he needed to go back to the shower because things weren’t as clean as he’d thought they were… but I was just like eh, it happens.

14: Is one orgasm enough? Are multiple orgasms necessary?
One is fun but if we have the time I’m always a fan of going again.

18: Weirdest sexual act some has performed [or tried to perform] on/with you:
Nobody’s really tried to do anything weird yet. I’m pretty open-minded when it comes to sex and most of the stuff people want to do I’m like “yeah, cool”.

27: Worst possible time to get horny:
During meetings. Ugh.

28: Do you like it when your sexual partner moans:
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

30: How much fapping is too much fapping:
When it starts to hurt.

5: Where is one place you would never have sex:
I dunno… a daycare probably.

9: Handcuffs, Rope, or Other [if other please explain]:
ALL OF THE ABOVE. Especially rope, I’m getting really good at it.

17: Two things you like [or dislike] about oral sex:
Um it’s basically the pizza of sexual activities. It’s hot and wet and
ideal for making me cum. I will give and receive and go again ten
minutes later. The only thing bad I can say about it is it puts you at
risk for gonorrhea, chlamydia, etc. So get your stuff tested regularly!
