Let me describe to you what kind of world gender abolitionists actually dream about: When a child would be born it’s biological sex, being an actual physical reality, would be noticed but not a single assumption regarding the child’s personality would be made based on it. Growing up, children would be free to chose what toys and clothes they prefer. If they want to play with toy trucks or dolls, it would be fine either way. If they want to dress comfortably or in frilly colorful dresses, it would be fine. Certain personality traits would not be encouraged in members of one sex and discouraged in the other. Females would be free to be strong, brave and assertive and males would not be shamed for being shy and soft spoken. No female child would be called a tomboy and no male child would be called a sissy. No kid would ever be bullied for what we in our gendered world call “gender expression”. When children would reach puberty they would still be free to dress how they want. Females would not be pressured to wear clothes that reveal their bodies and males would not be shamed if they chose to. Everybody would have a free choice of accessories, which would not be categorized as “men’s” or “women’s” but people could should whichever they liked. Or chose to not wear accessories at all if that’s what they are more comfortable with. Females would not be pressured to keep their bodies slim, soft and hairless. Males would not be pressured to be athletic and muscular. Expectations of femininity and masculinity upon the body would not exist and affect negatively people’s relationship with their own body. Everyone could choose a career without fearing stigmatization within that particular field because of their biological sex. The most important thing would be competence and not what someone has between their legs. Domestic work would not be considered “women’s work” and would be shared equally between the sexes. Biological sex would only be thought about when relevant. And everyone would be free to be themselves without ever having to worry about gender expectations. Nobody would feel the need to repress certain parts of their personality and exaggerate others in order to fit into some gender role that is being forced on them. Gender abolitionism is not about restricting people’s choices but about giving them greater freedom. - http://burningax.wordpress.com/2014/10/06/a-gender-free-world-boring/

NGC 1015

A strongly barred spiral galaxy, 110 million light years away in the constellation of Cetus. 

As galaxies age, the central black hole increases in size, and it’s effects become more pronounced, leading the a galaxy moving from Spiral to Lenticular and then finally to Elliptical. The central section of this galaxy looks look very similar to elliptical galaxies, with no obvious features, just ancient stars that create an almost haze like feature. 

While the outer edges of the galaxy, outside of the barred area, are full of star birth and activity. This is likely because they are out of the range of the impact from the central black hole, but also because the galaxy itself may have taken on new matter from a galaxy merger at some point. 

Eventually, it will become a elliptical, just as our own galaxy will, no doubt after several more merges along the way.

Body Neutrality for Females with Dysphoria:

Are you dysphoric? Are you sick of body positivity? Are you female? Here are some affirmations that you can try out to counteract your negative internal monologue.

Whenever you think a negative/dysphoric thought, tell yourself one of these affirmations. If it feels corny or dumb, that’s a good sign. It means you’re challenging your brain’s self-hatred. You are redirecting your brain and challenging your usual thought patterns.

General body:

My body allows me to perform the tasks I need to survive

My body is worthy of respect

This form is the product of years of human evolution

Uterus:

Thank you uterus, for providing structural integrity and support to my bladder, bowel, pelvic bones and organs

Period:

Cramps are temporary

Periods are a natural, normal biological function

Ovaries:

Thank you ovaries, for helping me regulate hormones and stay healthy

Feel free to add any that you come up with!
