Latinx - Tumblr Posts
I don't want this to come off the wrong way. I'm glad we have the BLM matter and now the SAH movement, and everything it stands for and is trying to do. But why is there no movement for Hispanic/ Latinos. Our families are being torn apart too. Our children are being locked in cages, starved, missing. We're harassed and told to go back to our countries and deported. Our LGBTQ get killed. We have to deal with hate and racism too. We have even less reprentation on shows and media, etc. So what about us? Where's our movement?

french recipes: if you’re not making this in paris then what’s the point. fuck you
italian recipes: use the left leg meat of a pig from one of three farms in this specific area of tuscany, or from this day my grandmother will begin manifesting physically in your house
So let me clarify this for you to not fall into conservative propaganda:
Latinx isn’t a slur, but it also isn’t the preferred term for us.
The hate this word gets is hella amplified by white conservatives, but most of the real dislike just lies in the fact that it’s not grammatically correct and weird to pronounce. Kinda feels like an American appropriation of the language, since x isn’t that much of a common letter in Latin based languages.
It’s more common to use the word Latino that is already gender neutral, but if you are educated on languages debates in Latin based languages and ends up preferring a totally gender neutral word, use Latine. It fits better, phonetically speaking and is less controversial.

"And the fault isn't mine, where I was or how I dress. You are the rapist."
Those are the translated lyrics of the Latin feminist hymn originated in Chile.
The lyrics have been criticized by anti-feminists (specially in mexico) and so many women started tweeting about their experience with sexual assault (where they were and what they were wearing) accompanied by the lyrics and DataPopMX just released some statistics based on 2,832 tweets:
In 68% of the sexual assaults occurred between 4 and 6 years old, they wore pajamas and were in family home.
In 26% of the sexual assaults occurred between 4 and 6 years old, they wore children's clothes and were in family home.
In 87% of the sexual assaults occurred between 9 and 11 years old, they wore their school uniform and were in family home.
In 59% of the sexual assaults occurred between 14 and 16 years old, they wore shorts and were on the street.
In 76% of sexual assaults occurred between 19 and 21 years old, they wore jeans and were at a friend's place.
In 8% of sexual assaults occurred between 19 and 21 years old, they wore skirts and were in public transport.
Of the 2,832 tweets in total 31% (877) occurred between 4 and 6 years old.
Feminists reunited in the streets of Argentina for "educación sexual para decidir, anticonceptivos para no abortar, aborto legal para no morir"

Mexico was painted purple by feminists today 🥰
Today, the feminist movement took the streets of mexico, with women marching for their rights and against the epidemic of feminicides that is taking place in the country 💕💓😭
When the march began to be organized in social networks, people were "worried" and critizised the lack of empathy (from feminists) with the women (specifically) who'd have to clean the streets after the marching - the cleaning ladies showed up to show their support tho 💖♀️
This was today and I'm filled with pride, I wasn't able to participate and it breaks my heart. However tomorrow is the mexican feminist strike - just like Icelandic women did in 1975 - tomorrow, Mexican feminist groups have called for a full on strike: no women in schools, work places or even on the streets. Women won't buy or sell anything tomorrow, or actively participate in the mexican society in any way, including social media. No internet tomorrow for us. So I wont see ya until the tenth. ✊✊✊
