How Carmen Carrera’s interview on Katie Couric’s show went down

Carmen discussed her goal to become the first trans Victoria’s Secret model, so the interview had a good start

The interview started to go downhill after Katie Couric starting to only ask questions about  Carmen’s transition and introducing her by saying “she was born a man and that’s why she’s on our show” 

But she managed to handle it pretty well

And then Katie asked this

and said this

yeah, she went there

But Carmen then proceeded to shut Katie down and explain that there are other things to discuss

Actress Laverne Cox joins to discuss her role in her television show Orange is the New Black

And then Katie decides to direct the conversation back to Carmen and her transition 

Laverne Cox decides to step up on the subject

Watch the full interview here

LAVERNES FACE IN THE LAST IMAGE YES ME TOO ALL OF US TOO

Please reblog, I would like to this on here to show everyone the hate there is in high schools. Welcome to McGuffey High School. A boy started the idea to wear flannels to show “Anti-Gay Support”, and almost a hundred students participated. How can we still live in a world this cruel and hateful? People, including myself, were pushed down, hit, had stuff thrown at them, shoved into lockers, called “Dykes” “Faggots” and worse hateful words than that. I’m apart of the LGBT community, and I feel awareness should be spread. 

fuck this shit, man 😡

Look at all the closeted babies

there’s so many posts telling minors not to date adults but here’s a post for the responsible people: if you’re an adult don’t date a minor

even if you “feel like a child” in your 20′s you are still a legal adult with all the responsibility that comes with it. you are being creepy

you are the one with all the power in the relationship, stop forcing all the responsibility onto the literal child. stop making posts absolving yourself of this by telling kids to stay away from adults instead of telling other adults to not date minors

GIVE IT UP! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I’m so happy for him I bet his parents are so proud!! Immigrant/Brown kids are just as smart and worthy of an education as everyone else!! Drop out rate for Chicanos back in 50s/60s was so high because they were encouraged to do so. They were told they’d only be maids/farm workers. We are more than labor. We are intelligent, resilient, hard-working, and humble. Everything that holds this country together.

His name is Fernando Rojas, let’s not leave that out!

That last gif, though.

I KNOW capitalism and politicians are all pieces of shit, I get it, but this is a really important part of Australia’s political history because a woman in power just unapologetically slayed a misogynistic male in power on national TV and it was really cool.

Point blank.

Ok, so story time. I have never experienced a point in time where this was as powerful and as obvious as my freshman opening week back in college. They group everyone off and make you talk, people introduce themselves right and left, everyone talks about hobbies, and to me there was just this really cool vibe of, “Yeah, it’s easy to make friends, everyone is cool, yay!”

This quickly went away when I began to notice a disturbing pattern. I’d spend a while talking to someone only to mention something about my boyfriend (who by the way is now my husband) who also was starting at the same university with me. Usually along the lines of, “Yeah, me and my boyfriend both do this medieval fighting reenactment thing, it’s super fun. We’re hoping to start a club here,” because that’s pretty much all I could talk about at that point in my life. Almost immediately the face of the guy I was talking to would go from smiling and friendly to openly hostile, and he’d be like, “You have a boyfriend?” And after I gave any sort of affirmation, the person would instantly walk away and never speak to me again.

I was on a campus where the guy to girl ratio was 5 to 1, so as you might imagine, this happened to me way too fucking much in the span of a week. I was so fucking upset over it I remember sitting in my dorm alone in the evenings trying not to cry, feeling like an idiot and wondering why I wasn’t good enough for people to want to be friends with. A majority of my friends in high school had been guys, so the fact that these guys were solely interested in getting laid rather than making friendships really hurt (not to mention made me question a lot of the friendships with guys I already had). I had never made friends with girls easily (still don’t), and I was originally pretty pumped with the guy to girl ratio just because I much prefer to hang around men, so realizing that none of them would want anything to do with me unless it was for sexual reasons made me incredibly pessimistic about what my friendships would look like for the next four years.

However, there was ONE GUY the whole week who stuck around and stayed my friend. He ended up being good friends with both me and my boyfriend. We hung out all the time, joined the same clubs, went to parties together, etc. At the end of sophomore year, he actually came to visit our hometown (my boyfriend and I grew up in the same town but had attended different schools) and even stayed at my family’s house in the guest room. I was super pumped, because I saw him as a really good friend to both me AND my boyfriend. We were going to have like five whole days to hang out and show him the town, right? Come to find out, the only reason he’d been friends with me the entire time was because he was waiting for me to break up with my boyfriend so he could date me, and when that hadn’t happened after two years he actually got mad at me while I was letting him stay in my fucking house. He spent the rest of his stay telling me what a horrible person I was, how terrible my boyfriend was for me, and making me feel physically uncomfortable in my own home— literally telling me I owed him something for the two years he “put up with me.” To make a long story short, we haven’t spoken now in five years, and I don’t regret that at all.

Like I get it, the friendzone sucks, no one likes rejection. But holy fuck, I would much rather be rejected sexually than be rejected as an entire human being.

people will honestly criticize lesbian weddings no matter what like if they both wear dresses then they’re “enforcing traditional gender roles” but if one of them wears a tux they’re “imitating heterosexuality” but if they both wear tuxes then they’re “proving that they’re basically men” so like what the fuck do you want us to wear lol

Nothing, cause the only way those people will accept lesbians is in a porno.

And there it is folks

Things I wish I learned in Sex Ed.

1. All labia are fine. There is not such thing as “freaky labia” 2. Your vagina takes care of itself, warm water is fine to clean. 3. The clitoris is a magical thing 4. The best way to understand your genetalia to poke around a bit down there, your vagina wont bite. 5. Whatever you decide to do with your body is OK. What I learned in Sex Ed. 1. The vagina is shaped like the Chicago Bulls 2. Sperm will find you.

Oh my god. Sperm will find you.

repeat after me: Being offended is not the same thing as being oppressed.

this picture deserves endless notes
