As a queer femme of color, I keep close relationships with people who go beyond allyship; theyre true accomplices in the fight against white supremacy, queerphobia, and misogyny. If youre not going to support marginalized folks, then we cant be friends, let alone date. The personal is political.
Beyond the lovely cushioning, happiness and support that we receive from our platonic relationships (which are, in all honesty, soul-feeding and essential), feminists also date! But there are questions we have to ask before we get close to someone.
The following list of questions is applicable to all relationships certainly not just cisgender, heterosexual ones:

In California, they think they run the place and I don't think they even believe in conservatives. The look of shock when they get smacked with a truth bomb is very satisfying.

Well done!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You RULE! Glad others recognize that too.
Merry Christmas!

I just went back and read them, and holy smokes...you ever get the thing where someone takes a college course of some kind and thinks all the neat things they learned in the class are completely unknown to those not privileged enough to have taken the class?
I almost choked (with laughter) reading all the gender class terms she throws out again and again, almost as if she is doing it just to show how “down with the LGBTQRIXZNDIOYSAMC agenda” she is! And after her repeated claims that “she doesn’t want to leave her lane”, it made me wonder if she has issues with driving as well...:)
I better stop there with the driving...I might make claims about someone of Asian and female persuasion having an issue with driving, and that stereotype would REALLY get me in trouble...
Looks like an ice-pick in the side of your neck while sleeping...probably for leaving the seat down!
And a Merry Christmas to you too, FRiend!
Indeed! A compliment which I will accept!
That was masterful, my FRiend!
Heh, didn’t even have to consider or edit my responses, either! (Thank you)
