Hey folks-
We've gotten a couple of reports for this thread and I want to come in and add some guidance here.
First, Femmadian, thank you for so eloquently addressing what can become super problematic in threads such as these (and by this I mean threads where desire, sexiness, and Feminism (Femme-inism?!) intersect in ways that sometimes make folks uncomfortable or brings out political policing.
Second, this is a thread in the Femme zone started by a Femme discussing lingerie worn by women-identified folks.
*Any* critique from non-Femme-identified people about how Femmes aren't doing the lingerie thing, the sexual thing, the bedroom thing, or any other thing correctly (and extrapolate that with looks of desire, arched backs, or the myriad other ways we might "do" sexuality) will be unwelcome and out of place in this thread.
It is a really shitty feeling to be finger-waggled by *anyone* for the way I as a Femme do my sexuality. I am sure that the Femmes in this thread would also appreciate a little respect for their space and while they do not at all need me to speak for them I am issuing a reminder to all non-Femme-identified people coming to this thread that your participation in this thread needs to be respectful and consensual or you need to stay the hell out.
Thanks to everyone for their cooperation,
Angie
