Anti-gay youth group leaders try to keep a girl from her gay dads

This incident still angers me for many reasons. My dads are gay, and when I was younger, someone at my school invited me to a youth group event. When I got there, they spent most of the time talking about how gay marriage is wrong, and it made me really uncomfortable. So I said, “I’m not feeling good, I’m going to call my dad to come and get me.” When the classmate that had invited me told everyone that I have two dads and they are gay, all hell broke loose. The youth group leaders freaked out and said that I wouldn’t be calling my dads. In fact, they did not want me to leave. They tried to get me to see that my dads were sinning, but I told them I wanted to leave and that I disagreed with what they were saying. I remember being in tears, scared and wanting to go home.

I went into the bathroom and called my dads. They were pissed and came to pick me up. My one dad called the police when they got there, as the youth group leaders would not let them get me. The police went into the church and brought me out. Charges were not pressed but I refused to go to any more of those youth group events. Thinking about it now still bothers me, I shake when I think about it. – Name withheld by request

Queenvenzhané Wallis

Fuck everyone’s “satirical” attacks on her.

Fuck everyone subtly coming for her for being a nine year old and acting like a nine year old should.

Fuck everyone coming for those who support her.

Quvenzhané, you’re a goddess in miniature. You didn’t need a damn oscar to validate your talent, and I hope you’re showered in puppy handbags and sparkly dresses because you deserve to be valued. You deserve to know you’re beautiful and talented and hilarious and precious and adorable, in a society that tells little children of colour, little Black children, that they can’t be any of those things.

Emad Burnat and his wife Soraya representing Palestine (Nominated for ‘5 Broken Cameras’) at the Oscars. Soraya is wearing a traditional Palestinian Thob.

They were also completely disrespected by us customs officials and detailed in complete isolation for several hours, where he was treated like dirt and told he was going to be deported back to Palestine. He even showed them the invitation to the ceremony, but they didn’t believe him. Eventually he contacted Michael Moore, who got help and got him released. Read about it.

I just wanted to note that as a reminder that even people nominated for Oscars get treated that way. Unsurprising, unfortunately, and utterly disgusting.

During his “We Saw Your Boobs” song Seth MacFarlane listed off women who’s breasts he’d seen in their movies. As if this isn’t grotesque enough four of the instances he listed were scenes of rape or the character was raped during the movie.

• Hilary Swank in Boys Don’t Cry.
• Jodie Foster in The Accused.
• Jessica Chastain in Lawless.
• Charlize Theron in Monster.

I HATE YOU SETH MACFARLANE YOU PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT I HATE YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FOREVER

Ugh. The entire organisation needs a slap in the face. That shit was approved by a bunch of people as totally okay. 

wtf

I sadly wasn’t surprised. McFarlane has a history of using rape as a joke on all his shows. I hope the motherfucker dies in a fire. He’s a disgusting piece of shit.
