Ties that Bind: Familial Homophobia and Its Consequences, Sarah Schulman. 2009.

idk about the lgbt movement inventing visibility (?) but god the rest of this hits home. i’m always going to feel like an outsider in my own family. i have all these fantasies about telling the truth and in real life nothing comes out, i am silent, i am scared, the anxiety keeps me from moving…not just with this but with everything. i am so stuck. stuck & quiet can’t call for help just…wasting.

Unnecessary “fillers” in our speech. I’d rather have “like” than up-talking, though (if we had to choose one, that is). Ewwww, up-talking. Then again, a combination of the two would render me homicidal maniac.

Like, did you ever notice? That, like, the speech patterns people, like, think are stupid?  Are, like, commonly associated with, like, women?

And, like, there’s this thing? Where, like, women aren’t supposed to be, like, assertive? So they, like, qualify their speech? Because, like, we’re not supposed to, like, stand by our opinions?

1) humiliate women so they don’t feel qualified to speak authoritatively about anything

2) humiliate women for speaking in such a way that reflects how you treat her

3) laugh, you are superior because you don’t use words like “like.”  It isn’t as if being a huge stupid asshole has ever made you worse than a woman who speaks with verbal tics.  

Like, one of my, like, favourite things to do is follow up a “like”, or a “totally” with a large word such as disconcerting, or “”on the precipice”, or a huge verbal smackdown about philosophers. Because, I mean, HAVE WE NOT LEARNED ANYTHING FROM LEGALLY BLONDE?

I THINK LIKE THAT AMERICANS ARE SOME ESPECIALLY STUPID FORM OF EVIL BECAUSE THEY RAISE LITTLE GIRLS TO BE NERVOUS AND THEN HUMILIATE THEM FOR IT.

Back in early high school I actually couldn’t help saying like a lot and my English teacher told me to think of the boys with a feather in their butt every time I was about to and I never said like again except deliberately

In Spanish, we don’t really say “I love you” we say “traeme una cerveza” which roughly translates to “you are the light of my soul” & I think that’s beautiful.
