@jacasiegel Congrats! Bloomington is not far from me!

Career update: I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as a Research Fellow at the Kinsey Institute! I am so inspired and impressed by the research (and the researchers) at Kinsey, and I'm looking forward to getting involved with this work!

only caring about your own rights is exactly how you lose them

If you’re opposed to fascism, please make sure you’re working on internalized ableism. The link between fascism, eugenics and ableism is well documented. Fight for disability rights. Make resistance efforts accessible. Wear a mask & stay home when sick. Don’t leave us behind.

The University of Michigan has always prioritized diversity when it comes to faculty hiring and research, and that is why it’s one of the best! An excellent op-ed by the one and only @LiliaCortina ! freep.com/story/opinion/…

Unfortunately, my politics are rooted in a deep love for humanity and the exhausting belief that a better world is possible

Looking for a postdoc position? Apply for the Thrive T32! You do not need to be an HIV researcher to qualify - and, in fact, if you have queer women’s health interests- you could apply to work with me and the @SoqirS team!

Come work with me in Ball State University's masters of social psychology program! Feel free to DM with questions! bsu.peopleadmin.com/postings/44883

Amber Thurman died following Georgia's abortion ban in 2022, less than 2 months after Dobbs. GA's maternal mortality committee did not review her case until July '24. Most states' boards have not reviewed deaths through '22, meaning we have limited data on Dobbs-related deaths.

@NBedera Thank you, Maude, for your service! 🫡

@NBedera @ucpress @PSLiterary @Maura_R @claire_m_harris I AM SO EXCITED TO READ IT!!!!!

The Gender & Women’s Studies Dept at UW-Madison is hiring someone to come in as our new chair! 🎉 Full preferred but advanced Associate profs can apply, too! This is an exciting opportunity for us to bring in a new leader in feminist scholarship. Pls share & apply if interested!!

Sexual authoritarians dislike asexuality just as much as other queer identities. That’s because their goal isn’t simply to “repress” sex—it’s also to compel heterosexual, procreation-oriented sex. Sexual authoritarianism both represses and compels sexuality.

@bisexualarchive I think it might really blow their minds to realize a significant minority of bi women are non-monogamous, and may be partnered with people of different genders at the same time 🤯 or that many bi women’s type in a man is queer. Even if he’s not out to you he may be out to me ☺️

i think what’s interesting is the implication that bi women who date other women & bi women who date men are distinct groups of women with no overlap,,, op cannot digest that bi women are bi & not either hetero/homo despite it evident in the label

@bisexualarchive The idea that we pick a gender and stick with it is baffling. op is very much reinforcing a gender binary that just doesn’t align with the attraction capacity most bi women have—did they forget nonbinary people exist and we date them as well?

@singer_joseph It’s definitely not everyone, likely just a vocal minority! I love and am in community with many gay and lesbian people. 🩷

@aecipriano I'm ashamed of my fellow queer people for doing that

For me, this pride month has been a constant reminder of the prejudice prevalent within and outside of the Queer community towards bi, ace, and trans people. We need community spaces, solidarity, and collective action. B with the T & A, always. 🩷💜💙 🩵🩷🤍 🖤🩶🤍💜

@adamfare1996 One of the many ways asexuality is seen and treated as a threat to hetero patriarchal institutions. This exact logic has been used to blame survivors for the sexual violence they experience, just wielded in a different way.
