I don’t care who you are, so long as you possess the cuntmentality. I want you naked. I want you clothed. I want your stories. I want your differences. I want you just the way you are and I want you on this blog.

This blog is owned and operated by a bad ass genderqueer who uses they/them pronouns or any gender-neutral pronoun.
What's the Cuntmentality anyway?
A few things first. You don’t have to own a cunt to have the Cuntmentality or even want one. Cunts exist all across the gender spectrum, and affect a wide variety of people. Though just a disclaimer, cis men should tread carefully here, I don't have time to hold your hand and break that down for you.
The Cuntmentality is raw power, derived from a sea of unlimited thoughts, experiences, opinions, fears, dreams, goals, and so forth. It is a call to remove genitals from gender, for cunts are not wed to only one dot in the entire Universe of Gender. It is an idea, an undying answer to those who are need of a safe space, of acceptance and acknowledgement of your pain or shared with others like you. It is the force that bashes back, that doesn't give in, that raises a fist against every oppressive force trying to drive you back into the cultural rot so you can degrade in ignorance and in false messages that claim you're unworthy or that who you are isn't good enough. This is you, this is me, this is every follower that I have in a collective of uncensored beauty that doesn't follow the direction label of the magazine rack. This is the be who the fuck you want to be so long as you're not hurting anyone else mentality. This is the stand up for the people around you mentality. The fuck you I'm queer mentality. The I don't always love myself but today I might mentality. The I'm fucking fabulous mentality. This is the change in perception, the challenge of social norms that dictate how you think, and breathe, the acknowledgment of institutional oppression and every voice that has had the courage to speak up about it, mentality.
The world is unbalanced my friends. We have been lied to on countless occasions. Just know that here, you are never alone and that if you ever need it, I'm never too far. My ask is always open and you're more than welcome to add me on my messenger accounts.
Love,
Taylor
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
happy femme fashion friday, my fellow femmes, femme lovers & admirers!
i shaved a lot of my hair this morning minus the top patch you can see. it was really scary and exciting, for a while there i wanted to cry at what i had done (plus a little blooper underneath the patch of hair i have but you don’t need to see that! jaja). i know there will be great chance i will get a lot of crap for it this weekend at various family get-togethers too but it is okay because now i know i made a good choice: i feel like the beautiful, amazing, sexy. fat, xicana femme that i am.
your hair, your face, amazing inspirational!
Everything about you is amazing. We also have similar hair but yours is more colorful!
Love,
Taylor

So presh and so clean ♥: hyperbole and a half and depression: not a depression bible
tl;dr while that depiction of depression is valid and true for that person and even many others, it is not for everyone, and going around propagating it as some profound and all-encompassing insight into everyone’s depression is going to HURT someone you know with depression because you will be forcing them into a framework that doesn’t apply to them
or: why i was scared for a whole five minutes that i’m not actually a depressed person and i might just be a worthless sack of shiti kind of wish she would have clarified that her experience is not definitive in the article.
#i loved this and related to it a lot #and it was brave of her to speak that candidly #but it sucks if ppl use that as an excuse not to listen to other ppl’s experiences #because a lot of us our depressed because of specific traumas #and she isn’t #and that is a very different experience #and that is just one of many ways that she can be different from other people (via horcelain)
yeah!!!!!! all of this is rly good
my friends are all v wise pplI rebuke anyone who claims Allie Bosh herself somehow did wrong by posting to her personal blog an autobiographical web comic showing a self-portrait having her own lived experiences without saying “btw this is just my experience!!” in a blinking disclaimer or some shit
I’m so done with that politic it’s not even funny
I’m confused here. Where did Allie ever claim that THIS IS HOW EVERYONE’S DEPRESSION WORKS EVER.She also says “The beginning of my depression”. Not Your Depression. Not Everyone’s Depression.
I just don’t know how you took a personal narrative about HER “Adventures in Depression” and made it into NOT EVERYONES DEPRESSION IS LIKE THAT. While your point is valid - not everyone’s depression is like that - that wasn’t the point she was trying to make.
Love,
Taylor
i don’t think the problem is at all w/ the comic itself but rather the way that a lot of people have reacted to the comic and shared it. overwhelmingly, the response i have seen all over my FB, tumblr, etc. has been: EVERYBODY MUST READ THIS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT DEPRESSION IS LIKE, THIS IS 100% WHAT DEPRESSION *IS* FOR EVERYONE
which is clearly not the case.
Reblogging this because I feel like this is what the OP was trying to get at. I haven’t seen these things - not saying that I don’t believe it just haven’t seen them…yet - so I can understand why people would be so upset.
Love,
Taylor

hello another person who did not read the post or the comments really
i am calling out OTHER people not bosh herself
no love,
not putting up with your sarcastic fucking bullshit about something i did define as MY EXPERIENCE AND HOW IT INTERACTS WITH POPULARIZED MEDIA DEPICTING ONE KIND OF THING THAT I SUFFER FROM
Hi.
You do know that this is linked to someone who wrote:
i kind of wish she would have clarified that her experience is not definitive in the article.
Which…was actually what I was commenting on mostly…I did skim your post - because the text on your blog is very hard to read - but while I did understand that you were more focused on the media’s depiction of depression, the title + your tl;dr summary doesn’t all seem to be too Bosh friendly - and I can take that many people have made this MISTAKE.
But for what it’s worth, I am sorry that I responded to something without fully reading it and that I jumped the gun to assume what you meant.
Love,
Taylor
(p.s. I actually use this in good faith. Unless you’re being bigoty but then my sarcasm wouldn’t be tied up solely in the neat signature that I literally put on all of my posts.)

Nineteen-year-old Tarikuwa Lemma is a survivor, of an international adoption scandal. When she was 13, she was effectively sold from her native Ethiopia to an American family. The corrupt “adoption agency” convinced her father, who was a widow, that Tarikuwa and her younger sisters were headed to the U.S. as part of an educational exchange program, and that they would return home every summer and on holiday breaks. Little did he know, his daughters had been placed with adoptive couples in the U.S., never to return. Tarikuwa’s name was changed against her will, and she was forbidden by her American “family” from speaking her native language. The issue of transnational adoption, its evangelical Christian component, and the exploitation of communities that sometimes results, is the subject of the book, The Child Catchers: Rescue, Trafficking and the New Gospel of Adoption by Kathryn Joyce, who appeared, along with Tarikuwa, on last Sunday’s “Melissa Harris Perry” show on MSNBC. Below is Tarikuwa’s satirical look at the “rescue” of children from her home country, to “better lives” in America.
