I need poly to be destigmatized for the same reason I need sex work and LGBTQ+ folks to be destigmatized: so I don’t have to knee jerk support all moderately positive representation just so I’m not on the side of bigots

My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

*whispers* Glasses are a disability and accessibility aid. They've just been normalized so people don't generally think of them as such. Now, imagine if all other aids were just as destigmatized and normalized.

I have a hunch that the reason the target boycott worked so well is that it essentially destigmatized Walmart for my demographic.

I’m also all for sex workers having a space, and I gotta say their sentence should have ended there. Sex work is work and should be destigmatized and decriminalized.

'pоrn' was largely destigmatized by its rebrand from 'pоrnо', which sounds like the stuff of bozos

I don’t even take drugs except caffeine but on principle someone “taking a pill every day for the rest of their life” needs to be destigmatized.

They don’t actually believe this, they only say it about views they can’t or won’t defend on the merits but want to be destigmatized. https://bsky.app/profile/mmasnick.bsky.social/post/3k2cbcagsxw2m
Remember when Bret Stephens tried to get @davekarpf.bsky.social fired for comparing him to a bedbug? Anyway ...

Why do I say “if it’s a real thing”?
Because there are some trans women who identify as autogynephiles and argue it should simply be destigmatized.

Literally should be part of your annual physical just like blood tests and urinalysis.
STI testing needs to be destigmatized and free
STI testing needs to be destigmatized and free
If you think public health policy/ advice should be
“You don’t need testing if you’re sexually active and you’re super duper sure your partner wouldn’t cheat on you”
Instead of
“Sexually active people should get tested regularly”
You are reactionary

9. Bernie Sanders calling himself a "democratic socialist" destigmatized the world for progressive millennials (nevermind that he was really a social democrat) and Zohran's successful campaign is leading many more Democrats to recognize that "democratic socialism" is a valid position.

Decrim and destigmatize. It's become more normalized, but that doesn't equal destigmatized.

Megyn Kelly should google "blood coming out of her wherever" to be reminded why American boys need to have menstruation destigmatized
As I said the other day:
It's be super to have schools provide actual instruction about how a body with a uterus operates as it's painfully clear that most people without a uterus have no idea & many people with a uterus have been successfully socialized into thinking it's all too gross to discuss.
