“More and more people are coming out about having chemical sensitivities, or what some folks refer to as chemical injury. There are many of your friends who have asthma, have MCS, have been through chemo, etc, who don’t mention it cause they don’t feel entitled or want to get in a fight, but if you cut down on scents, they will be really happy. A lot of people are chemically injured through doing industrial labor- cleaning houses, using or being exposed to pesticides as farmworkers, and growing up in neighborhoods with a lot of industrial pollution. Chemical sensitivity is a POC issue.”

this is not only a great educational resource on MCS, but has a TON of resources/product recommendations for going fragrence free while being a fierce brown femme (or not brown/not femme)!!!

awesome! yes! everyone please read this and consider using less fragrances when in public or sharing spaces with friends who may have chemical sensitivities! especially if you hang out with me then i will be less likely to puke or have seizures around you thanks.

Ugh yes so thankful to see Leah doing a post about MCS/being fragrance free.  I keep trying to have conversations with femmes in my life who feel really strong attachments to the fragrances they use and I just get so frustrated because most of the online resources I’ve found about being fragrance free are not that useful for them and damnit I just don’t want to have asthma attacks every where I go and I just want my friends to not be made sick every time they go to an event because you felt entitled to yr perfume. 

AMAZING YES <3<3<3
i would like to add some 2cents in, i’ve found that “hypoallergenic” things often STILL have fragrance (essential oils OR the toxic shit) i cant tell you how many times i’ve taken home “hypoallergenic” products only to have them be full of chemical fragrances and set me off. you really have to be read the labels :(

also for real, bathrooms need to stop being full of scented soaps and shit. at the least, i cant wash my hands anywhere. ugh.

this post is amazing. this post is amazing.
thank you thank you THANK YOU

thank you.

I’m sometimes asked if I mind being called gay. My answer is no. To answer otherwise is to insult gay people. I feel most people’s sexuality is enormously complicated. That’s what it means to be human. Wouldn’t it be great if we honored that complexity rather than turn it into gossip or ridicule? Wouldn’t it be great if we accepted sexual diversity, in ourselves and others, without condemning it?
