"There are more things in heaven and earth,...,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
--William Shakespeare, "Hamlet"

"The twins were too young to know that these were only history's henchmen...civilization's fear of nature, men's fear of women, power's fear of powerlessness. Man's subliminal urge to destroy what he could neither subdue or deify." -- Arundhati Roy, 'The God of Small Things'

"Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." -- Benjamin Franklin

Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it"
-- Omar Khayyam, 'The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam'

"I do not wish them to have power over men; but over themselves."
-- Mary Wollstonecraft, 'A Vindication of the Rights of Women'

You search for the tag 'lesbian' in the photography category and all you see are pictures of naked women having sex. Artists, what is wrong with you?! You are supposed to be challenging these stereotypes! Lesbian is not a bunch of pictures to masturbate over, lesbian is not an excuse to double your quota of beauty-standards-compliant women, lesbian is not a way to serve YOUR sexuality; lesbian is an identity, lesbian is a lifestyle, lesbian is LOVE. And Love looks the same. Why can't you see that? http://renjoo.deviantart.com/art/Lesbian-Love-74104014 and http://tynas.deviantart.com/art/LoVe-143790232 and http://yoshi-matsumura.devi

Dear Artists

0 min read
It breaks my heart when I go back to enjoy your work again some months/years after favoriting it, and discover it's been put in storage. I understand you may need to keep turning over your portfolio as you develop as an artist, or maybe DA has some storage policy, but surely it isn't important to erase your tracks as you journey forward? I would really like to look at those artworks again, and share and think about them.

Thanks for the fav ! ^^
Hi, I'm just going through my watchers and just wanted to say hello. I wanted to mention you may be better off following me through my website, blogger, twitter or what not as I very rarely update here. My links are in my sig if you're interested, and I also send out of a when-I-remember-but-should-be-monthly newsletter that just recaps my updates to email, which you can subscribe to through my site. I will try be more active on here but as it is, I remember to go on here every 6 months. Thanks :)
Thank you very much for the watch :heart::star:
