Is Feminity In Male Natural?
Ask yourself these questions before reading further! You discovered one of your siblings, children, relatives or family member always act feminin. Would you because of that hate the person? hurt the person or kill the person because of feminism? The same way you love them, kindly spread the love to the ones you're not blood realated with and protect them.

The Power of Representation
In honor of National Coming Out Day, I’m reminded of the power of representation in shaping our understanding and empathy toward the LGBTQ+ community. As a non-queer creator and ally, I’ve come to realize how vital it is to see diverse, authentic depictions of queer lives in media, pop culture, and literature. Representation acts as a mirror of view, allowing individuals to see themselves clearly, and for allies, it serves as a window into experiences we may not personally share, but can deeply resonate and relate with.

A Journey into the LGBTQ+ Experience
As a non-LGBTQ+ creator and ally, my journey toward understanding the complexities of the LGBTQ+ experience has been shaped significantly by moments of genuine queer representation. One of the most impactful experiences was watching the television series Pose. Set against the vibrant backdrop of New York City's ballroom culture during the 1980s and 90s, the show features a predominantly transgender and queer cast that portrays the struggles, triumphs, and everyday lives of its characters with remarkable authenticity.

Carl, Karl, Carl & Karl: VENUS VALLEY’S favourite philosophers
Bittersweetly, it’s almost time for me to finish doing what I’ve been doing and hand over to you, queerly beloveds: Over to you, to take what you’ve hopefully learned from what I’ve hopefully taught, and give it a go yourself.

The Children Matter. Top Story - October 2024.
I follow a mostly-upbeat social media platform that features millions of photos and short videos, and I spend maybe an hour a day scrolling though the pictures, reading the captions and the comments. I often find news items that aren’t reported in popular sources, which then forces me to dig up the facts and uncover hidden truths. Some of the comments are spot-on hysterical. Others, however, get trolled to death until the original poster deletes the photo. Standards, both written and unspoken, are followed, and certain original posters (OP) are famously followed because of their unique perspective on things.

Existing Within the +
While I understand that the Community has made great strides in equality and representation over the decades, I still have to argue that there are many members of the Community that don't get the same representation that everyone else does. I am speaking of those of us in the Community that are reduced to being Represented by the +.

Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.
I've met myself in media many times seen myself on subways, highways and byways in books, in mirrors, in sad and happy voices
