Rubbing Slow Circles Over Your Clit While Sliding Fingers Deep Inside You, Building A Rhythm That Makes

i need a girl I can use whenever and wherever I feel like it. I want a girl who pretends to be taken aback by how vulgar and forward I can be, and maybe even scolds me a little, but starts getting a wet spot on her panties anytime I feel her up in public. a girl who gets turned on being dykehandled like a slut

And there was also a man. My manager, who openly admitted to having three relationships but not telling any of them about each other. But I expect less decency of men. I had a lot of fun telling him No and that I’m Only Interested In Women.

*People who hit on you, hoping to date you or simply hook up.

Very cool.

Feminine language for God in Christian history: a brief timeline

People have been employing words and images for the Divine that move beyond the masculine from the very start. I thought I’d compile some examples chronologically. 

Links in any of the points lead fuller explanations or excerpts. Feel free to add on to this timeline!

First Century: 

Paul himself, right there in the canonical Bible, implies that God is pregnant with all that exists! And he’s not pulling that image out of nowhere, but from his own Jewish scriptures.

100s:

“In his ineffable essence he is father; in his compassion to us he became mother. The father by loving becomes feminine.” - St. Clement of Alexandria .

There’s a long complicated history around Sophia being identified sometimes as the Spirit and sometimes as Jesus in Christian history, about which @fierysword has many posts, but Theophilus of Antioch is one of the early figures to describe the Trinity as being God, the Word (logos), and Wisdom (sophia), so that the Holy Spirit is described in feminine language because sophia is feminine. Meanwhile, see here for information about Jesus being identified with Woman WIsdom.

200s/300s:

“Come, secret Mother; Come, You who (fem.) are manifest in your deeds; You who (fem.) give joy and rest to those who are united to You (fem.)” - The Acts of Thomas .

”She is the kind and heavenly mother…” - Symeon of Mesopotamia (speaking of the Holy Spirit) .

St. Barbara envisions both God and those who follow God as Saints as being beyond the human gender binary

300s-400s:

the earliest Syriac Christians frequently employed feminine language to all three members of the Trinity, including Mother language for God and sometimes using She pronouns for the Holy Spirit .

“He who has promised us heavenly food has nourished us on milk, having recourse to a mother’s tenderness. For just as a mother, suckling her infant, transfers from her flesh the very same food which otherwise would be unsuited to a babe…so our Lord, in order to convert His wisdom into milk for our benefit came to us clothed in flesh.” - St. Augustine of Hippo 

1000s-1100s:

“And you, Jesus, are you not also a mother? Are you not the mother who, like a hen, gathers her chickens under her wings? …. And you, my soul, dead in yourself, run under the wings of Jesus your mother and lament your griefs under feathers. Ask that your wounds may be healed and that, comforted, you may live again.” - St. Anselm of Canterbury  .

“In Hildegard’s day there were other traditionally feminine theological ideas: for instance, the Cistercians feminized the language for God by replacing ‘God’ with ‘God is love’, and, because love (caritas) was a feminine noun, God could be denoted as ‘she’.” - Andrea Janelle Dickens For more on Hildegard’s feminine conception of God as Caritas, see here. .

“Our good mother Charity loves us all and shows herself differently to each one of us, cherishing the weak, scolding the restive, exhorting the advanced. But when she scolds she is meek, when she consoles she is sincere…” - Burgundian Abbot Bernard of Clairvaux

1200s:

“What does God do all day long? God gives birth. From the beginning of eternity, God lies on a maternity bed giving birth to all.”  - Meister Eckhart, German theologian (c. 1260 – c. 1328) .

St. Francis of Assisi envisioned the Trinity as a group of three women (who give him a feminine title!): “Three poor women appeared by the road as Saint Francis was passing. They were so similar in stature, age, and face that you would think they were a three-part piece of matter, modeled by one form. As Saint Francis approached, they reverently bowed their heads, and hailed him with a new greeting, saying: ‘Welcome, Lady Poverty!’” .

Poet and mystic Hadewijch wrote in Middle Dutch about God as Minne, or Lady Love (and it gets pretty gay; see this excerpt) .

“Even if you gave me everything that you possess in Heaven and on earth, I would not consider myself satiated until I had you, because you are the life of my soul, I do not have a father and mother outside of you.” - Marguerite d'Oingt

1300s:

“As we know, our own mother bore us only into pain and dying. But our true mother Jesus, who is all love, bears us into joy and endless living.” - Julian of Norwich  .

In various places in medieval Europe starting around 1320, Jesus’s side wound was frequently depicted as a vulva. Scholars have suggested various reasons for this depiction, including: making Christ androgynous as androgyny was seen as more holy than belonging to an earthly (binary) gender; and helping women see themselves in their Lord (birthing girdles were even made bearing Christ’s wounds so that one could imagine their labor pains in parallel to Jesus’s pain on the cross) - See my #androgynous Christ tag for more info + scholarly sources

1400s-1500s

Madre Juana de la Cruz in Spain imagines the Trinity as working together to weave divinity and humanity into one being (Jesus), just as a seamstress sews a shirt. She also envisions God the Father as having a womb, and, speaking in the voice of Jesus, said: “And all those who seek in me a father, will find in me a father. And those who seek in me a mother, will find in me a mother. And those who seek in me a husband, will find in me a husband. And those who seek in me a bride, will find in me a bride. And those who seek in me a brother, or a friend, or a neighbor, or a companion, likewise will find in me everything they desire…” .

A convent in Belgium commissioned a painting of Jesus in which he has breasts  .

God cares for us with an everlasting maternal heart and feeling.” - Martin Luther, who also pictured scripture as God’s womb.

1800s:

1800s: “My Father, my Mother, it is in You that I sleep, it is in You that I breathe. Awaken!” - Saint Mariam Baouardy (1846 – 1878)

I recommend Lynn Japinga’s article “Language about God” for information on how and why to expand what gendered language one uses for the Divine. I share excerpts from the article in this post, as well as a link to the full thing.

In your regression, you have failed to take into account the possibility of being strapped to a rocket which is moving a good fraction of light speed.

In reality, I will be walking away with a reasonable fee, all under the table of course (wouldn’t want the ethics committee to find out), and the lucky patients will eventually notice they don’t bleed when they get a papercut.

I’d be 100% a necromancer if possible. But I wouldn’t be the type that brings back mindless hordes of zombies. There are plenty of other ways to be…ethically ambiguous.

A slight breeze at this moment sprang up, and the great sails began to move, seeing which Don Quixote exclaimed, "Though ye flourish more arms than the giant Briareus, ye have to reckon with me."

So saying, and commending himself with all his heart to his lady Dulcinea, imploring her to support him in such a peril, with lance in rest and covered by his buckler, he charged at Rocinante's fullest gallop and fell upon the first mill that stood in front of him; but as he drove his lance-point into the sail the wind whirled it round with such force that it shivered the lance to pieces, sweeping with it horse and rider, who went rolling over on the plain, in a sorry condition.

- Chapter VIII, Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes

Just so you know… There is no “the queen”. Why? 

There are so, so many queens.

They make up half of the human population.

We call them “women”.

annoying bloggers are having another Gossip Season it seems and its mad stupid and evil but this is making me laugh so hard im gonna throw up. fuuuuuuuck #staysafe

I have been watching a few shows lately and there is a type of recurring character type that I enjoy which I like to call The Appreciator.

Appreciators enjoy the small things especially food and they are always be vocal about what they like in an exaggerated way, but they are not pretentious or obnoxious about it.

My two favourite appreciators are Dale Cooper (Twin Peaks) and Senshi (Dungeon Meshi).

Dale Cooper is constantly proclaiming about how good his coffee and pie is and has several food-related catchphrases. At the start of season one he was loud about the scent of the pine trees and threatened to inhale them at one point.

Senshi is rather single-minded about food, which I appreciate. He enjoys making it and teaching the process to others, which I love. In fact, I love the whole show because of how often the characters are expressing their appreciation for foods.

I personally love it when people are very appreciative of good things, because it means that they living and are merely consuming something for its constituent parts. You will see people saying things like “I like consuming this type of media” or compliment a meal for its nutritional balance, which is a little sad if that’s the only thing they have to say about it.

Personally, even if I have had the same delicious meal many times, I will still say what I liked about it.

Some guy: “I love falin and marcille, but what about falin and sh…”
