Sapphic-bottom - Loving Women

Being gay often comes with doing a lot of things later than everyone else. Having your first kiss later than everyone else, having your first relationship later than everyone else, and all the things that we missed in middle school or high school we scramble to catch up on as adults. But doing things such as going on a date for the first time in your late teens or your twenties, or hell, even your thirties, does not make those experiences any less important or worth any less than if you had done them earlier. Do not be ashamed of “missing out” on common middle or high school experiences. You still have a long life to live, and plenty of time to make up for it.

Something people don’t understand about child abuse

One of the things that I really hate is that people don’t understand that survivors act differently and respond to their traumas in different ways.

I’m a survivor of csa and so is my friend. Her trauma made her extremely hypersexual while I could literally cry if someone even touched me.

My bf is a survivor of csa, I can talk for hours about my trauma if I felt safe enough while he NEVER brings it up.

A friend of mine is a survivor of emotional abuse and so am I. Her trauma made her angry while mine made me soft and defenseless.

My bf remembers every little detail about his trauma, while I repressed most of my childhood and traumas.

There’s no special “criteria” that you should fill in order to be a “valid” survivor, and there’s no specific way you should act if you were abused.

People respond to their traumas differently and it’s okay, your abuse is STILL valid no matter how you respond to it.

SPECTRA, an LGBTQIA app is live on Kickstarter!

SPECTRA, an LGBTQIA app is finally live on Kickstarter! But what is SPECTRA, exactly? SPECTRA is an app designed by members of the LGBTQIA community for the LGBTQIA community. At SPECTRA, we believe that our community deserves a Digital Home, a welcoming space to meet our needs in a non-judgmental environment. We exist to make you stronger. We are a network of businesses and people who get it.

So, what’s our mission? We plan to become an online resource center for our community, a space where your voice will not only be heard but where your voice will also help the members of our great family feel safe anywhere in the world. Here’s what we have in mind!

A Complete Resource Center For LGBTQIA People

SPECTRA is a movement emerging from a digital platform built for iOS, Android and the web. It is a network of LGBTQIA people and their allies fighting for a more inclusive future.

Because there are so many in our community that feel insecure and unsafe in unknown spaces. Because we found out that more than 70% of LGBTQIA youth said they felt more comfortable being themselves online than in the real world. Because SPECTRA is an opportunity to use the power we have online to rally our community together and find the safe spaces for us in the real world.

SPECTRA is an excellent opportunity to create an online resource center for the LGBTQIA community, where you will be able to know where to go, where to work and even where to live. SPECTRA has been created by a union of inclusive people, employers, and places. It is a movement towards social equality and will be available on iOS, Android and the web. Because we believe in a future where everyone can feel safe in the world. We invite everyone to get involved, especially allies!

How Will That Work?

We have designed three unique features to help you find the best friendly places to have fun:

Rainbow Ratings

SPECTRA Rewards

Rainbow Maps

The rainbow ratings will work similarly to YELP but for the LGBTQIA community! SPECTRA members will be able to rate businesses on how welcoming they are. These ratings will help other members of our community avoid spaces where they could feel unsafe, and encourage businesses where they are welcomed. The ratings are calculated based on actual interactions through user-generated reviews. SPECTRA is a global app, which makes it easy to find affirming businesses all over the world.

You will be able to avoid places with low inclusion ratings. Plus, in the near future, you will be able to look for window stickers on businesses with a HIGH inclusion rating!

As for the rainbow map, we plan for it to be a resource that makes it easy for you to plan a journey. You will be able to take safe routes around your city and anywhere in the world! Every SPECTRA object is pinned to the map for your convenience. You will also be able to filter businesses by several criteria such as:

Exclusive deals

Health & Wellness

Safe Spaces

Queer Spaces

Gender neutral bathrooms

Hotels & Hostels

Crossdresser Meet-Ups

Virtual businesses

LGBTQIA and POC owned

Clothing Swaps

Private Events

Pride Events

Finally, with SPECTRA rewards, you will be able to earn rewards at inclusive businesses and gain access to exclusive deals that are only available within SPECTRA Rewards! You can earn points as you shop with our partners and inclusive businesses all over the world!

There are so many more things we have in mind for SPECTRA and we need your help to make it happen!

We Are 80% Complete!

Due to some complications and homophobic forces in the world, we had to hide for the longest time that we were building an LGBTQIA portal. This secrecy resulted in extra expenses and longer development. SPECTRA was started in summer of 2017.

We are finally coming out and need your support to complete the development and refine, test and release SPECTRA in BETA.

Our Kickstarter campaign went online on February 19 2019, and our goal pledges is at only 10,000. Thanks to our several backers we are a little over 10% of our goal! We ask for your help to bring our project to fruition and we have planned several tiers and rewards for those who believe in us!

We invite everyone on Tumblr to Signal Boost us and help us reach our goal! Reblog, like, share it with your friends! It might seem like a small gest, but SPECTRA will be a revolution for LGBTQIA inclusion!

Be part of our future today!

I think a lot of people are anti vax not only due to mistrust in science, but because they’re so used to the benefits of vaccines that they forget what life would be like without them. They’re not seeing anyone die of tetanus. Or children paralysed by polio. They’ve never been concerned with measles. Herd immunity (because thank God, most people do get vaccinated) has been protecting them for so long that they don’t know how horrible these diseases are. They fully expect that their children will make it past childhood.

However, not everyone gets that privilege. In some countries, people will go to hell and back to get their children vaccinated. They have 5+ kids expecting that maybe one or two will live to see their adult years.

Vaccines do not make you sick. It is not within pharmaceutical companies’ best interest to make people sick with their vaccines. It’s not only bad for people, but also bad for business. Developing a vaccine is a decade’s long investment, and if a vaccine is dangerous it’s pulled from the market before it can generate sufficient profit. Besides, you don’t think pharma companies WANT to be known for good vaccines? Who wouldn’t want to be known as the business that eradicated a horrible illness?

Whether you like it or not, the diseases that vaccines prevent are more dangerous than you imagine. We wouldn’t vaccinate if it was unnecessary! Vaccinating is so important- speak to ANY doctor about it. The side effects of vaccines are extremely rare (so rare in fact, that the WHO doesn’t have enough figures on this matter to run a statistical analysis) and they are much better than the diseases they prevent. Vaccinating is one of the best things you can do for both your own and public health.

Lets talk about how hard it is to open up to someone about being sad for no reason. Lets talk about how hard it is to explain to your friends and family that you have this heavy feeling in your chest for no reason. Lets talk about how hard it is to understand why you’re having a panic attack while just taking a walk back home. Lets talk about how hard it is to understand your own self and how scary it is to feel like the whole world is falling on your shoulders and you have no idea why .
