"a major challenge during 2022 was the increasing misuse of the term “grooming” to justify violent rhetorical and physical attacks on marginalized LGBTQ+ communities, sex educators, sex workers, and even CSA prevention researchers and clinicians." buff.ly/3GUDu6a

When conservative anti porn lobbyists encourage financial discrimination against porn & sex workers, they aren’t “rescuing” anyone. They’re pushing vulnerable people into even more precarious economic situations. It ruins lives.

"Fantasy has been widely acknowledged for its therapeutic benefits by mental health professionals for some time now. Naturally, it can initially be very painful to revisit these traumatic memories through fantasy." buff.ly/3GRBsoo

"So whether you enjoy fantasy to help in overcoming trauma or as an outlet for your sexuality, do so with the peace of mind knowing what you’re enjoying is a harmless human instinct. And you aren’t alone." buff.ly/3GRBsoo

"In a fictional space we are free to explore and express even our most stigmatized feelings of attraction, romance, and arousal. All without the anxiety that we might be putting ourselves or anyone else in harm’s way." buff.ly/3GRBsoo

OMG.

Going to Family Court? Worried CPS could TAKE YOUR KIDS? The Supreme Court ruled you have no constitutional right to counsel, because you are not at risk of losing your liberty by going to jail.

No lawyer for you! Say goodbye to your kids!

Parents need support to help provide for their families, but what they are getting is surveillance, regulation, and punishment.
