  3. Armed robbers are using Grindr to target queer victims, police warn after string of crimes

     
    City of Atlanta Police Department suspect armed robberies Grindr

    Police in Atlanta, Georgia have warned that thieves are using Grindr to find their victims.

    At least eight people have been robbed between February and May after planning dates on Grindr, the City of Atlanta Police Department (APD) said at a press conference on Wednesday (5 May).

     

    The APD said the robberies happened in remote locations throughout the city and that they believe there are more victims, but they may be too afraid or ashamed to come forward.

    Sergeant Rodney Jones explained how the suspects use Grindr to “lure the victims to their location”. He said the suspect is usually armed with a handgun and robs the victim after the date has concluded.

    “After the date concludes, the suspect then robs the victims often taking wallets, keys or vehicles,” Jones said.

    Police also released a surveillance video of one of the suspects, asking the public to help identify him. According to the police, the man is one of three suspects thought to be involved in the string of robberies. The Atlanta Police identified the suspect as a Black male, in his late teens or early 20s, around 5’11” or 6″ in height and his hair is in “small twists or dreads” that are about 3 to 4 inches.

     

     

    Officer Eric King, the APD’s LGBT+ liaison, warned LGBT+ people to take precautionary measures before meeting anyone on a dating app. He advised people to notify a friend or partner when “you’re going to meet somebody” and to always meet in a public place “before you reconvene somewhere more intimate”.

    He added: “Listen to your inner voice.”

    One victim told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he was carjacked by someone he met on Grindr in March. He said he met the suspect and drove him to an area of Hightower Road in Atlanta. Shortly after they arrived, the man said his date pulled out a gun and demanded: “Give me the car and everything you got.”

     

    The suspect then drove off with the victim’s car, the police said. The vehicle was later recovered.

    Crime Stoppers Greater Atlanta posted about the incident on Facebook. The organisation also included photos of two individuals thought to be related to the incident and asked anyone with more information to come forward.

  4. 1000 Thrusts should do it!

    The researchers founded a spin-off company, HydroGlyde Coatings, for the innovation. Stacy Chin, chief executive and co-founder of the start-up, says the self-lubricating condoms can withstand at least 1,000 thrusts, compared to regular condoms' only around 600 thrusts.

    Most lubricants used on latex condoms tend to be sticky, repel water and diminish during use. The researchers at Boston University, however, found they could bond a thin layer of hydrophilic – or water-loving – polymers to the surface of latex. When the polymers come into contact with water they become slippery to touch. This means they could use moisture from bodily fluids to remain slippery and reduce friction throughout use.

    Nothing wrong with a little saliva.

  5. And sometime I forget Google is your friend but in my case duckduckgo:

    For those who may not be familiar, transgender men are people who were assigned a female sex at birth but feel it not an accurate description of who they are inside, so they then begin to identify themselves as men. Let’s not forget, gender is a social construct that differs from biological sex. Where biological sex identifies your chromosomal makeup and the appearance of your genitals, gender largely relates to social and cultural differences. So if you really think about it, it seems totally possible to chromosomally be a woman and have the biological makeup, but identify as more of a man.

    Transgender Men and Menstruation

    Many transgendered men take hormones and/or have surgery to make their bodies more masculine, but for those that have not and still have periods, it can be a difficult time. It often can serve as a reminder that their bodies don’t match their gender identify.

    Most conversations about menstruation happen in the context of girls and women, and that’s not a totally accurate reflection of modern society. Menstruation is not exclusive to women anymore. We need to remember that we have brothers-in-arms out there that need our support, our recognition and our compassion. They menstruate too, and to be mindful of those members of our society who are made invisible or invalid by the discourse that elevates periods as the source of womanhood or femininity is to recognize their unique struggles. I think we need to consider the implications of the statements we make and the attitudes we have and examine how they may hurt both women and transgender men.

    Inclusion

    It’s important to remember that inclusion is about more than what we say, but also how you say it. Exclusionary language equals exclusion in everyday life. Our language and the overall discussion of periods need to be inclusive and not exclusive. Remember that the views that express menstruation as feminine are gender essentialist and they harm and marginalize an entire group of people, including other women that no longer menstruate.

    So in the future, I challenge you to think about how you view your period and how you communicate that to the world around you. Remember that there are many different types of people on this planet, and the world is made richer by that diversity. Respect yourself and in doing that, remember to respect other people whose experience is different from yours and include them in the conversation.

     

    This was followed by many articles about trans men being ashamed of having periods.

    The point is they want to market their tampon/pad for transmen and allies by saying the current products are gender bias. 

    I think we can all agree they want to sell a product...my question, I guess, is are trans men having periods? or is this product just a way to comfort them over the loss of menstruating? why would they think that's a loss? or is it something else?

    Now I'll stop beating this dead horse...thanks for your patience spoon.
