6 Damaging Myths About Non-binary People

The biggest myth about non-binary people is that they’re non-existent.

What does it mean to be non-binary? 

Non-binary gender identities cannot be fit into the male/female, accepted binary. It’s more simple to imagine an entire spectrum of gender and know that everyone fits somewhere on it and they don’t always necessarily remain in the exact same place. Yet, let’s remember that “male” and “female” do not begin and end this spectrum.  “Genderqueer” (GQ) is another word some use instead of non-binary. Here are six common ones that need debunking:

It’s just a fad
It is not an option to choose between male and female for gender identity for a non-binary person.  It’s not a game that anyone’s playing for attention…it’s very real.  Gender expression (the type of clothes you might choose to wear, for example) is not the same as gender identity. This is where a lot of people seem to get confused and think of non-binary people as if they’re folks trying to fit in with a trend.

Non-binary people are just confused
Confusion is natural for a lot of people and there’s nothing wrong with being confused.  It is part of the process of many trans people.  However, the fact that someone is non-binary doesn’t mean they’re confused.  It just means that they’re not male or female…or they are genderless (agender).

This is a new concept
The fact that non-binary folks haven’t received much recognition in the US until recently doesn’t mean it’s a new concept. There are  many cultures in the world who use words for genders that aren’t “male” or “female”.

Non-binary people want to destroy gender
Just because non-binary people want more options than “male” and “female” for gender doesn’t mean they’re trying to destroy gender.  This assumption doesn’t observe the fact that many non-binary people do have genders.

Non-binary is the same as intersex
Of course, this is untrue.  Being non-binary means you have a gender identity that doesn’t fit into the male or female genders.  When one is intersex, it means they’re born with a physical sex that isn’t classified as male or female.

Trans oppression is not experienced by non-binary people
Non-binary people experience more discrimination and violence in some circumstances, as they would have negativity coming from both cisgender and binary transgender communities.  This means less of a support system for non-binary folks as well as fewer safe places.  You can become a better ally to non-binary people by insisting on including them whenever the topic of gender arises.  You can be a part of the change that needs to happen in order for everyone to realize they matter just as much as anyone else.

Differences of Sex Development & Intersexuality

Inarguably, the intersex community was not dealt an easy hand to play with. The secrecy, shame and social marginalization they deal with has built a kind of camaraderie that those who undergo sexual assignment surgery often face: guilt for leaving their comrades, PTSD and difficulty adjusting to their new life.

Today activists are trying to enlighten others while letting those with intersex traits and differences of sex development (DSD) know that there are people out there who are advocating for and supporting them. Activists like Jim Ambrose, Pidgeon Pagonis and Bo Laurent want them to know they are worthwhile individuals who deserve the same rights, respect and love as everyone else.

Co-founder of The Interface Project Jim Ambrose says of this, “It’s hard for people to wrap their head around what exactly is going on. It gets everywhere — it’s nothing but sprawl. It’s not limited to the bedroom.”  The Interface Project is a website that collects personal anecdotes of those with DSD or intersex conditions. These conditions are not uncommon. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one out of every 1,500 or 2,000 infants are born with a visible difference in sex organs. For instance, in cases where women have androgen insensitivity syndrome, they will have testes and an XY chromosome. Going as far back as the 50’s, doctors would often advise surgery on a baby born with analogous genitals. Girls were generally chosen as the surgical procedure is easier to perform.

Complications arose in later times with intersexuals as Doctors began to understand that although they had assigned a sex, many of those assigned to be girls actually felt more like boys. There were whole generations of DSD and intersex people growing up in the wrong bodies. Some felt estranged from their parents. Often they hid their genitals from romantic partners. Many were filled with shame, angst, guilt and repressed anger. Sadly, they had no one to turn to.

Today the DSD and intersex population is more accepted than ever before, but they still face strong obstacles. It is important for DSD and intersex people to come to terms with who they are and learn to love themselves. That said, it’s also critical to address the particular situation as early on and as honestly as possible. More education, outreach and anti-discrimination campaigns must be enacted to protect this often silent minority. They must learn their self-esteem is not relative to other’s opinions, rather their own so they may move towards a successful and joyous life.

Americans Identifying as LGBTI+ Increased

According to a recent survey from the Gallup research firm, 5.6 percent of Americans are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or intersex people. This significant increase, which means about 18 million people, is attributed to the greater acceptance of LGBTI+ individuals in the society.

While this rate was 4.5 percent in Gallup’s 2017 survey, the result from the 2020 survey indicates a record jump of 24 percent. The main reason for the increase is from Generation Z adults aged 18-23. 15.9 percent of this generation say they are LGBTI+.

“At a time when the public is increasingly promoting equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, ınterex + people, a growing percentage of Americans identify as LGBTI+,” the Gallup website said.

In the 2020 election, the US saw Pete Buttigieg as the first openly gay presidential candidate. LGBTI+ candidates have had multiple historic wins, including Sarah McBride, the first open transgender state senator.

According to the Washington-based research center Public Religion Research Institute, Americans’ support for same sex marriage, which was legalized in 2015 and seen largely as a synonym for LGBTI+ rights, rose from 36 percent in 2007 to 62 percent in 2020.

The Gallup survey shows that 54.6 percent of LGBTI+ Americans identify as bisexual, 24.5 percent are gay men, 11.7 percent are lesbians and 11.3 percent are transgender.

For the first survey conducted in 2012, 15,000 Americans were randomly interviewed by phone throughout 2020. While 86.7 percent of the respondents identified themselves as heterosexual, 7.6 percent refused to respond to the interviewers. This rate was around 5 percent in past surveys.

There were significant differences between generations. Among those born before 1946, seniors were much less likely to see themselves as LGBTI+. The lowest rate was recorded as 1.3 percent.

Researchers found that women were more likely to describe themselves as LGBTI+ than men. While this rate was 4.9 percent for men, it was 6.4 percent for women. From a political point of view, 13 percent of liberal respondents and 2.3 percent of conservatives identified themselves as LGBTI+.

It is noted that there is a similar trend in England. According to government data, the proportion of people identifying themselves as lesbian, gay or bisexual increased from 1.6 percent in 2016 to 2.2 percent in 2018.

Rainbow Tattoo Ideas

Although the Indians, Japanese, Native Americans and some tribes in Africa used the tattoo as an ornament, in many societies the tattoo was applied as a protective talisman (amulet) against illnesses and evil spirits, the position of the individual in society (slave, master, adolescent, worker, soldier) It is known to be used to emphasize.

The tradition of tattooing is quite old. It was understood from mummies that tattoos were used in ancient Egyptian society in the 2000s BC. Apart from the Egyptians, Britons, Gauls and Thracians also had tattoos. The ancient Greeks and Romans used to make tattoos on criminals and slaves, which they deemed “a barbarian occupation”. Tattoo was prohibited in the Christian faith. In contrast, the first Christians had tattoos on their bodies bearing the name of Jesus or a cross. Centuries passed, Europeans forgot about tattoos. They encountered tattoos again in American Indians and Polynesians on overseas trips in the late 18th century. European languages ​​have taken the word tattoo, which means tattoo, from the Tahitian word tautau. Tattoo became widespread especially among sailors after the early 20th century. Tattoo was widely used to indicate romantic feelings, patriotism or piety, and is still used today.

Tattoos are also used by the  LGBTI+, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex+ Community.

I’ve compiled some rainbow tattoos for you…

Homeless Shelter for LGBTI+ Opened in Naples, Italy

Friday, February 5, was an important day for the Neapolitan LGBTI+ community: The House of Cultures and Hospitality opened to host LGBTI+ people who are victims of discrimination, abuse and violence.

The municipality structure, whose address cannot be disclosed for security and protection reasons, is three-level and will be managed by Antinoo Arcigay Napoli and ten other partner associations.

Shelter; It will serve LGBTI + individuals who are exposed to violence, harassment, discrimination and exclusion.

Naples Mayor Luigi De Magistris said the municipal shelter is the only one of its kind in Italy.

“Today is an extraordinary day for rights, freedoms and justice,” said Luigi De Magistris.

De Magistris said, “This building is a sign of change. Our city believes in emotions, brotherhood, solidarity, justice and reaching out to people in need.”

The associations that will be responsible for the operation of the shelter stated that this project will strengthen their efforts to “protect civil rights in Italy and the Mediterranean”.

Antinoo Arcigay Napoli Association, which is involved in the project, also stated that the shelter will “host Covid victims as well as victims of intolerance and hate”.

The association drew attention to the fact that the coronavirus epidemic mainly affects the most vulnerable people.

Italy is in the last rank for LGBTI+ Rights

In Italy, the law granting same-sex couples legal status under the name of “civil partnership” was passed in 2016.

Although this decision is a historical turning point in the country where the Catholic Church has strong influence, Italy is still at the bottom of LGBTI+ rights among Western European countries.

According to a Eurobarometer survey conducted by European Union institutions in 2019, the acceptance rate of LGBTI+”Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, +” individuals in Italy and the proportion of those who say that same-sex couples should have the same rights as heterosexual couples is below the European average.

The LGBTI Solidarity in Turkey

Homosexuality in the Ottoman Empire

Especially Most of them are slim waist and tall. As they surrendered, they showed softness with each limb.

Gelibolulu Mustafa Ali is a famous Ottoman historian who grew up in the sixteenth century. He was born in 1541 in Gallipoli. He started his education at a young age and graduated from the madrasa at the age of twenty.

He was appointed as a divan clerk by presenting his work named Mihr-ü Mah to Prince Selim II. Later he was appointed as the council clerk of the Damascus chieftain Lala Mustafa Pasha. He went to Egypt when Mustafa Pasha became the governor of Egypt. After a while, when Mustafa Pasha was taken over from the governorship of Egypt, the Prince in Manisa became one of the beneficiaries of the Third Murad. From there, he was appointed as the council clerk of Bosnia Governor Ferhat Pasha.

During the reign of Sultan Murad III, he worked as the governor of Georgia and council clerk.

When Sultan Mehmed III ascended the throne, he was appointed as the governor of Damascus with the rank of mir-i miran.

Finally, Mustafa Ali, who was given the emirate of Jeddah, went to this duty through Egypt and Mecca and fulfilled his pilgrimage. He died in Jeddah in 1600.

In addition to having his name written as a good poet, he has an important place in our commentary literature. He interpreted the poems of Sultan Murad III. His giving pseudonym to some poets like Nefi is clear evidence that he is one of the masters of our poetry.

The real field of success is history. In his historical work titled Künhü’l-Ahbar, he explained not only the Ottoman history, but also the history of the Prophets, Islamic history, Turkish and Mongolian history.

WRITTEN THE SOCIAL RULES

“Künh-ul-Ahbar” is his greatest work. Some of his other works are Heft Majlis, Nadir-ul-Maharib, Menâkıb-I Hünerverân, Âdab, Hülâsâtü’l-Ahvâ der-Letâfet.

In his work named Kavaidü’l-Mecalis, written at the request of Sultan Murad III, he explained how people belonging to various classes, arts and professions should act, how to dress, in short, what to do and know what to do in order to live in a proper manner in the community.

His work “Nushatü’s-Selâtin” is about social life. This work, which is an example of the politics tradition in the Eastern world, was written to guide the sultans. This work is important in terms of showing the political and social situation of that period … It tells about the works that the Sultan should do during the state administration.

TELLED THE STUFF

The eighth chapter title of Mustafa Ali, who has deep experience and knowledge about the Ottomans and the Sultans, published in two volumes, titled “Banquet Tables on Manners and Social Rules”, published by the conservative Tercuman publications, “Describes the team of those who have not sweaty mustache and have not grown beard” ‘is written in capital letters with the definition.

Aside from the harem scenes of the “Magnificent Century” series, which has fixed its place on the agenda that has been discussed recently, it describes the concept of sodomy of that period in all its nakedness.

In the episode, it is explained that boys who did not grow hair and beard mustache at that time were preferred by attractive women. It became evident to be friends with the people of the world, they started to walk with them everywhere in their seated worlds without hesitation, and they never carry the moon-faced women with them in the same period.

On pages 59 and 60 of the book, see how the experiences are described:

“Because the namahrams of the beloved women’s division are kept secret from fear of dignitaries. Now, friendship with the mercenaries is a door on the way of falling and getting up with them, which is always secret, obviously open.

Most of those who are descendants of the hairless bite are Arabian bastards and the veled -i adultery of Anatolian Turks.

Until they reach the age of thirty, they do not see hairs on their beautiful face that will be sad in their hearts. Turkish children are unruly children in Arabia who are short-lived in terms of beauty.

As they reach the age of 20, they become out of vogue and fall out of lovers’ jobs. But the fine figures of İçel, Edirne, Bursa and Istanbul are ahead of them in perfection and beauty in every way.

On the other hand, those who lack beauty and charm make it look cute with its freshness and sweetness. But Kurdish hairless people were healthy, gentle and docile, according to the experience of mother-born sons, and they would listen and do whatever they offered. They used to paint their waist down with henna and decorate themselves by painting them down to their knees.

Most of them are especially slim — waist and tall — they are. As they surrendered, they showed softness with each limb. In short, seemingly behaving softly, actually standing against, most of the Icel beauties would stubbornly.

Accordingly, their blessing of vuslat exists for these burdens. It is in the square where they left their lovers wandering with them unfortunate and without money, they say. And they say that it is impossible to touch, that two young people benefit from each other at times of opportunity, or if one of them gets drunk and gets above the other.

In short, it attracts famous beautiful faces and has a silver-cypress shape in front of it. Those who want to use tall, swinging walkers should not be surprised by Rumeli Köçek. Do not be tired of the Circassians of the type of Kul with a face of Yusuf and those of Croatian descent who have a fragrant breath.

Even though there are some people in İçel mahbups too, most of them are painful beauty who want to upset unfaithful people. The peace and comfort of those who have them is rare. But the Albanian breed also takes the hearts of the lovers, there are so many that they are very stubborn.

But Georgian, Russian and Görel breed are like the manure of other tradesmen. Looking at them, those of Hungarian ancestry are the other crews who are natural and acceptable.

However, most of them betray their masters; every person sees their ugly side from their fall and their behavior. What is surprising is that the Egyptian households are fond of the Abyssinians. Coldness intervenes, they say, each one is a human sable. In fact, they were masters in bed service, that is, they wanted esbap incense, mattress and pillow upholstery. The males and females were evident: it was easy for them to show softness by behaving docile and nice in whatever district they were seen. ”

Here are the lines telling from Mustafa Ali’s mouth that sodomy reached the extent of sodomy in the Ottoman Empire, and that it was preferred over women. We do not know how Islamists reacting to the love scenes in the TV series Magnificent Century will interpret these lines of Mustafa Ali, the Ottoman official historian. However, the fact that Nazlı Ilıcak, one of the Ilıcak family, who owns the publishing house and that the book in question was published by the conservative Tercüman Publications, was a member of parliament from the party of Milli Gorus who protested the events seems to be a separate contradiction.

Green Tea For Weight Loss: Fact Or Fiction?

Weight loss, and green tea’s popularity has been hype with regard to the few recent reports on green tea. There is a ongoing debate among the experts of the various green tea varieties or tea types for weight loss. The latest reports suggest that there could be benefits from most green tea types and that any single type of tea may not be such a big thing. That in turn leads one to question “Is Green Tea a Weight Loss Fad?”

The basics

There are four basic types of tea including: Green, Black, Oolong or Wu-Long.

The difference is in the way these teas are processed. teas that are black usually require oxidation which oxidizes the tea color, giving it a rich rich aroma. The processing does not affect the active ingredients of the tea. Green tea which is less processed is less oxidized giving it a more delicate flavor and aroma, this leads to black teas with a more robust flavor and aroma. This is what makes green tea the choice tea for weight loss.

The benefits of green tea

• The primary ingredient is caffeine, which gives you an energy boost, promoting thermogenesis and thus resulting in increased fat reduction.

• Several research has shown that theanine, caffeine and the catechins (chemicals that give green tea its sweet flavor) are all from the leaves. The anorectic and catabolic (break down fat cells) affect by the tea, and are believed to promote weight loss, as the active ingredients speed up your metabolism and help to burn fat faster.

• The antioxidants in green tea also help to protect the body against arrived harmful substances, which in most cases are in the form of free radicals, which are given to the body because of stress, unhealthy eating and even pollutants found in tap water and food.

What kinds of green tea should you buy?

There are three tea types that you can buy. The top of the line being wulong / wulong buds, which are steeped two times before seasoning. The popular Oolong tea, has gotten much media attention recently. Oolong tea comes in bags and also depending on the brand or cartons, as well stir-filled or in solo tea bags.

Tea for weight loss – and other health benefits

Tea, in its naturally raw state, is nutrient rich. It contains powerful antioxidants such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). In addition, green tea contains the modifying polyphenols called Binding affinity proteins. A binding protein is a tag- affiliate protein that unites with a dilute sample of your blood supply to dilute the effect of the sample on your circulation. With the aid of this dilution, the amount of harm to our bodies is reduced. Online sources say that an EGCG study showed that it helps regulates blood pressure, reducing plaques and reducing bad cholesterol.

Tea, in it’s natural form, is rich in many other nutrients than those that are processed or added in the forms of supplements. Other benefits include that it helps prevent certain cancers and may even have been used by the ancient Chinese to treat diseases such as cancer and control theirappetite.

Studies of the effects of green tea on health and diet longevity are still underway. For example, currently in theorbination of tea, the ORAC value is only taken as a measurement of the amount of polyphenols and anti-oxidants present. The study so far has focused on green that is whole plant extracts not just green tea itself. However, from the studies, it would seem that green tea benefits are far more than what has been discovered by the research and testing to date.

Is it really weight loss tea?

Yes, it might be from the “herbs” category of tea, but if you search for reviews on that kind of tea you will find many other kinds of tea, so if it’s green you’ll find a whole new set of benefits.

Some other health benefits of green tea are:

• helps preventBLE nails and belly wrinkles

• protect againstER HEIGHT Accumulation

• protects againstARY2017bs dipped into it

• helps prevent tooth decay and other cavities

• helps combat premature aging• helps keep you cool

• increase your endurance• help fight Teranish disease

• and it’s a natural antibiotic

• and because it contains antioxidants, it’s a very powerful weight loss ingredient.

It seems that green tea weight loss programs are beginning to pop up everywhere. Remember, before you invest in a weight loss tea, research and make sure the product you use is made of 100% whole plant parts and is as pure as possible. Limit your use of supplement tea to three times per day.

Kate Plays Christine

Kate Plays Christine is a low-budget horror/romance about a young girl who moves to the small Massachusetts town of Busfield, where the local teenage librarian, Maxine, has a crush on her classmate, Kate. Kate accidentally murders Maxine’s boyfriend, Mike, then pretends her death was the result of an assault by a masked man. Tomatometer score: 66% Tomatometer rating: 4.7 (“Fresh”) 89 % What Happens in Vegas: Season

Director: Keith Calder Hawkins

From the director of Timecop, the award-winning Timecop has two incredible trade franchises. The first film’s premise – a series of haphazard events that loosely connect ones that could get messy – is exceedingly clever. The second film’s premise is even better: a group of 40 or so young characters are caught in a tragic and sexually charged situation: 13-year old high school girl Lindsay finds out she has a kinky turn on and decides to expose her to risk it all by dating a stranger. It’s the ideal sum of all the best parts of those film series, and works magnificently in its own special way, when it needs to. DP-PA Oliver Jean sees his chance to shine, but having previously explored the psychological films Super Troopers and Torn, he’s ready for anything. “Making this film allows me to delve into other avenues and territory,” he says. Tomatometer score: 73% Tomatometer rating: 4.8 (“Midnight”) 91 % Purge

Director: James DeMonaco

Our second film review looks at a crime thriller. Mark, the hero of this tale, is enrolled in a man-made commune where he may or may not be in touch with the spirit world. He immediately gets a taste of what it’s like to be hunted by criminals and starts to experience supernatural occurrences. Tomatometer score: 6% Tomatometer rating: 2.4 (“Fresh”) 40 % Anna Karenina

Engrossing themes such as the vicissitudes of parent-child relationships and the survival of the family tree can be found in numerous works. All The Young Dudes and Strange Days gained their high scores on this one. Tomatometer score: 40% Tomatometer rating: 2.4 (“Fresh”) 24 % Freaky Friday

Director: John Waters

Who would’ve thought that a film using footage of a soap opera would strike a chord with viewers? A classic that posts beautifully, Freaky Friday is the stuff of dark comedy, and a rare example of a film with both a socially-conscious message and a well-crafted film noir twist that stays balanced and doesn’t veer too far from social commentary. Tomatometer score: 46% Tomatometer rating: 2.3 (“Midnight”) 40 % Adam Blampied

Director: Adrian Thomas-Hunt

Adam’s journey to got to television is a truly wild one, but his unlikely quest toward respectability is plotted just right. Situated squarely in the get-crazed noir genre, this is an inviting but archetypal tale of a sly cop in L.A., trying to do his part in fighting the industry’s rampant misogyny. A steady stream of terrific performances and a well-realized intent cause to root for Adam throughout, but his tragic fate doesn’t offer the same comfort. Tomatometer score: 43% Tomatometer rating: 2.3 (“Fresh”) 57 % Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li and Ryu

Director: Joe Haythe

Our first film review looks at a martial arts film. Deep sense of family ties are the drive behind this film, and its ensemble cast of an international cast must pull together to fight perceived stigma. And that can only be done with a bit of baddies. FX’s stop-motion epic Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li and Ryu features some of the greatest sketches and animation in blockbuster history, and continues to impress, thanks to its hyper-rebellious and reclusive protagonist, Ryu, and a sumptuous and funky score by the late, great, De-Gaetano Waller.

LGBTI Meaning: What is LGBTI?

The expression LGBT, which stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transsexual, has been used since the 1900s.

Expressed as a rights struggle, LGBT was used as GLBT for a period, but it started to be referred to as LGBT again because lesbians were ignored in the society, later added intersexual people.

What does LGBTI stand for?

LGBTI Which Stands For Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans & Intersex

The LGBTI operation dating back to antiquity, 2000-3000 BC, has succeeded in shedding light on this issue by reflecting on the works of that period.

Although Christianity prohibits homosexuality, it is known that homosexual relations, although not very common, continued in Western countries throughout the Middle Ages. The bans, court orders and executions of the popes and cardinals prove that sexual relations and love continue to exist among LGBTIs despite these prohibitions.

With the French Revolution, homosexuality was decriminalized again in Europe, with the abolition of all crimes and punishments based on religion. When the French emperor Napoleon enacted the civil law in 1810, he did not give up this practice. In the 19th century, countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Bavaria and Italy accepted the Napoleonic laws, but homosexuality was no longer a crime in these countries.

What is a LGBTI Honor Mark?

A frequently cited goal of activist or social movement among LGBTIs is social equality for LGBTI people; some people also sought to develop LGBTI communities or liberate the wider society from sexual oppression. LGBT movements organized today are lobbying and street walks; social groups, support groups and community events; magazines, films and literature; academic research and writing; and business activities, as well as a wide range of political activism and cultural activities.
