I was going to make a post here about how I don't really know what to do when someone comments on a fic I wrote and says they've been hurt or offended or both by it, because I did X, Y, and Z, and I still don't. And eventually I'll come up with something that isn't crying or wanting to hide in the corner of shame and cover it all over like scat, or ... something. There were a mix of reactions. I'm trying to fix what I did wrong, and hopefully I will, but then I got distracted by this unbelievable mind-fuckery and audacity and misogyny.

A friend of mine posted this. I just. I. What. WHAT. NO. STAY THE HELL OFF PEOPLE'S BODIES. NOT YOURS. NOT YOUR PLAYGROUND, NOT YOUR PETRI DISH, NOT YOURS. STAY. THE FUCK. AWAY.

Her chosen excerpt from the article: At annual visits after the surgery, while a parent watches, Poppas touches the daughter’s surgically shortened clitoris with a cotton-tip applicator and/or with a “vibratory device,” and the girl is asked to report to Poppas how strongly she feels him touching her clitoris. Using the vibrator, he also touches her on her inner thigh, her labia minora, and the introitus of her vagina, asking her to report, on a scale of 0 (no sensation) to 5 (maximum), how strongly she feels the touch.... Poppas has indicated in this article and elsewhere that ideally he seeks to conduct annual exams with these girls....

This is the article by the doctor describing these procedures and this is a response from Psychology Today.

Christ. What the hell is it with today and... well, everything. California, you're pre-emptively on notice. California has not, as yet, done anything with or to Prop 8. And my comment notifications are still showing up late if at all. Ugh. On the plus side, did discover exactly how much of my Original Big Bang I have to have done by the end of this month. So there's that.
