Don’t come at me about the Bible and homosexuality if you’re using it to justify your homophobia. I will demolish you.
Also, for some cultures including early Christianity, sodomite could very well have ment someone gravely inhospitable, as the sin of Sodom was inhospitality and not anal sex.
I wanted to talk about that too but I was running out of tweets I could put on a singular thread 😅 thank you so much for this addition!
I’m reblogging this partially because it’s frickin awesome, and partially for future reference, cus yeah the evangelical community is really scary to be in as part of the LGBTQA community
Whoa this is one of the BEST things I’ve ever seen!! And I learned a lot from it which I can tell my LGBTQ+ friends so that they can also destroy someone with this knowledge! Thank you so much for making a stand!
This was some hella good stuff here. I knew there was corruption with Bible verses and such but wow this was supremely informative!
I’ve reblogged this before, but I always feel like someone might need to see this.
people are now criticizing the ‘feral, goblincore, rabid’ trends and that’s valid if people are using this language to knock themselves down and your own personal feelings on it belong to you
but honestly? like, for real? this is like, a lot about gender
there is an insistent and deep rooted (western) historical belief that women are inherently a ‘civilizing force,’ they tame the barbaric men and bring society to the unkempt masses, the ‘fairer sex’
young girls are expected to mature faster and restrain themselves more, be the ‘voices of reason,’ the tempering wife, the nurturer
and like, fine, okay, but maybe we’re sick of that? maybe we deserve to be silly and dirty and exist for ourselves? calling myself a ‘feral bog witch’ doesn’t make me feel bad
it frees me from the pressure of having to micromanage myself at all times, much less others
WE LIVE UNDER THE EVER PRESENT MALE GAZE AND THERE’S NO PROBLEM WITH RAISING A MIDDLE FINGER TO IT
Also, all that babble about “girls mature faster” and “she’s the voice of reason” somehow never translates to, “and therefore women should be in charge and make most of the important decisions.”
“She’s the sensible one” always means she should operate the brakes, not the steering wheel. And fuck that.

Let. Me. Be. A. Swamp. Witch. In. Peace.
Let’s not automatically dismiss criticism from our Jewish friends about the way ‘goblin’ terms have anti-Semitic history. We should absolutely sieze autonomy from being forced into roles we didn’t ask for, but while we do it, let’s not forget who our friends are.
Can we just… normalize teens loving their parents? Like obviously you’re not obligated to if your parents are shitty, but damn, I love my mom. She’s there for me all the time and sure we have rough patches but honestly she’s the greatest. Like. We need teens to know that they don’t have to hate their parents just cause.
It must be nice to come from a nonabusive family. One that doesn’t traumatized every emotional interaction to the point where you drive away any sign of love as a form of manipulation because that’s all that you were raised with. 🤷♀️
It is.
Reading Comprehension
but loving ur parents is already normalized and its the kids w/ abusive parents that actually have to deal with misunderstandings and ignorance from others regarding this topic.
Hey there, I’m talking about the trope where it’s seen as super uncool to like your parents that was literally pushed on teens through the media since the culture shift in the early 60s. The post has nothing to do with abusive parents. I was abused as a kid and honestly if the trope where teens have to hate their parents to be cool died, then kids with actual abusive parents would have an easier time recognizing abuse this has been a psa
“if the trope where teens have to hate their parents to be cool died, then kids with actual abusive parents would have an easier time recognizing abuse”
Teen with abusive parents: I hate my parents
Teen influenced by society: Me too mine are the worst
The takeaway for teen 1: This is normal and it’s supposed to be this way
The takeaway for teen 2: My friend’s parents are like mine
The takeaway for any adult listening: All kids who complain about their parents are just being rebellious
