puelhathnofury:
I am indeed, and oh lord, my list of narrative kinks is about as long as my arm. I’m going to try to keep this to narrative tropes, not character or relationship ones, but the three categories kind of blend together in my head because of how I think about stories, so!
Long slow painful drawn-out redemptive arcs where characters accept responsibility for what...

Goddamn, I love how many words mean “vagina” in Elizabethan English.
Vagina’s not usually their only meaning, but you can bet that Shakespeare’s audiences were going “hurr hurr hurr he just said wit hurr hurr.”
I should make a grand list of Words That Shakespeare Used To Talk About Vaginas. They never teach you that shit in school.
Puel, yes. A thousand times yes....

(I will probably be able to talk longer about fandoms that are either current favorites or that I’ve written a lot of things for, but it’s me, I can ramble about nearly any character’s sex life if you give me enough time.)
Ask for one at a time, please; after I answer your first, you may proceed ad nauseum.

Trans Sexuality - A Safe Sex Zine →
insurrectionarygrapefruit:
boybitch:
tobitastic:
Safe sex information is almost universally designed for non-trans (and straight) folks, and then that information is given to us when and where it applies. However, there is a lot of information that is unique to trans people and trans bodies that never gets included. This zine answers the question, what would sex ed look like if it was...

It’s a traditional folk song of D12, by that point, probably. ^_^
I’m pretty sure Mr. Mellark knew it, anyway.

aimmyarrowshigh replied to your post: I’d venture to guess that you’re not a big Johanna/Gale shipper. But maybe that’s me projecting my distaste for that ship.
