Tumblr: “Oh Emma, you have a new blog with like a million new messages? Awesome. I’M GOING TO NOT WORK ALL NIGHT.”

So I am sending you all this message. Sorry for the form message!
Thank you so much for your interest in being a Femme Mentor!!

So there are two types of fat messages I hate
And they are opposites, and yet really similar.
The first: Concern Trolls.
“I’m glad you’re happy with your body, but aren’t you worried about your health?”
“Confidence is great, but what about being healthy?”
etc etc etc.
The second: Fat Police.
“You’re not fat, you’re only a size 16.”
“You’re not fat unless...

Anonymous asked: I'm asking this through anon, because I want to make sure that this would be right for me. Will there be womyn of color mentees? What about bisexuals? What about people who've experienced sexual violence? Can we stay anon throughout the entire process, only revealing ourself to our mentor?

Femme Mentorship Blog
I made it!
It is not finished yet (obviously) but I will work on it tonight! Please follow and spread the word :)
Femmeffirmations.tumblr.com
The concensus seems to be: NEW BLOG
I think I am going to call it: Femmeffirmations!
(get it - femme affirmations?)
Does that sound good?
remember that loan I applied for, and needed?
Apparently I’m not enrolled in enough credits.
I hate my life.
So I have to be honest
I was slightly unprepared for the amount of mentors/mentees I would receive.
So it may take a bit longer to get everything set up.
In the meantime, I have a few questions to help me make things.
Do you want this to be its own blog, or just a page on my blog?
Do you want all of the mentors to be posted and then mentees can pick who they’d like, or would you like to be matched up?
If...

mylifeasabroad:
One week into school and the only funny story I have is not actually funny, but mortifyingly embarrassing. It involves me pooping in a public restaurant.
And now that I come to think of it, it didn’t even take place after school started. It was the day before.
I was studying (yeah, I guess I do…

Fill your blog with your own face
Show off your arms, thighs, ass, shoulders
Make pages and pages of your own teeth and hair
Dedicate space to loving the cracks in your lips and the chewed parts of your fingers
And if you are called vain, then you have succeeded
In getting others to notice
How fucking beautiful and important you...

Anonymous asked: [TW: eating disorders] I also struggle with disordered eating and have struggled with it most of my life. I hear a lot of myself in the posts you make about how you're struggling and while I guess I don't have any advice, I want you to know you aren't alone. I hope that you are doing well today.

Food update
tw disordered eating
So whenever I post these I always lose a bunch of followers. Which is fine - I know people need to protect themselves and even though it’s under a cut it can be hard to ignore. I also understand that some people don’t care how some random girl in tumblr is feeling about her body and food.
But I feel like it’s important to document these things in my life...
