Consent Culture: Playing with Fire →
consentculture:
So this is Kitty Stryker speaking here.
I wanted to maybe encourage other people, Dominants particularly, to speak up for the Blog Carnival with a story of my own. It’s a time that I violated boundaries in a scene (ignorance? not bliss, people), and discovered how complicated…

consentculture:
Normally I wouldn’t repost a whole blog entry, but I think this is important enough to. If you agree, please consider funding our work?
There’s a Salon article out right now. Maybe you’ve seen it- “When Safe Words are Ignored”, safewords being those things that help people…
belliesandboobs asked: Dear Mistress, after Desi’s Tumblr, his Blogger too has been shut down! I guess he will remember Mrs. Stryker’s name for a long time… Ahahahaha!! Cheers, Mistress!

So Maggie Mayhem and Kitty Stryker did a Safe/Ward workshop discussing consent and entitlement in the kink community a few months ago and it was a roaring success. They pitched it to the feminism and sexuality conference Momentum at the same time. It was accepted, which is awesome- but they…

Stop SOPA: Why the Stop Online Piracy Act is Bad...
So January 18th is the Great Blackout, when sites all over will do everything from displaying a banner to blacking out their sites in protest of the Stop Internet Piracy Act and the Protect IP Act, a pair of proposed bills that will give private companies the power to shut off websites because they allegedly have copyrighted material on their page- allegedly, mind, it doesn’t need to be...

Disney’s latest t-shirt designs cause us to re-evaluate the way we see, interpret, and value female characters in mainstream media.
I’ve been thinking about this for a long time (read: basically my whole life), and it just keeps getting worse. I recommend you read the whole article and take a minute to think about it before you shrug it off (or reblog this...

And don’t let anybody make you think that God chose America as his divine, messianic force to be a sort of policeman of the whole world. God has a way of standing before the nations with judgment, and it seems that I can hear God saying to America, “You’re too arrogant! And if you don’t change…

candid pornography: call to action
Desi, from my Candid Pornography post about sites that take photos/videos of women without their knowledge or permission and then post the footage for money, has declared a war against my blog, bless his heart.
I’m getting a lot of traffic from his site, of course, because he’s posted on his blog, which has images/video of fat clothed women, no face photos, not the best angles, that...

The following is a list of some of the things that no longer matter in asexual public settings (and most other settings as well, with select, few and far between exceptions): - violations by cis straight men and cis queer women so I’d know…
A lot to think about in here. Well worth reading.

candid pornography
So posting candid images of girls’s asses without their consent or permission and selling it is a-ok with Tumblr, who recommends you just block the offensive content.
Taking photos of people without asking as wank fodder, particularly wank fodder other people pay for, is kind of… sinister.
That’s exactly what Desi’s Candid Big Butts is doing. They have a tumblr and a...
