I've seen this idea several times now passed around that says the dynamic between trans women and trans men is identical to the dynamic between cis women and cis men because the "trans" factor cancels out to just leave women and men.

I just need to make this absolutely clear. Not only is this idea absurd on the face of it, there is no theoretical basis for this at all. It spits in the face of everything we base our understanding of oppression, transphobia, and misogyny on, and is especially a direct attack on the ideas of intersectionality.

This idea is self-serving prejudice/ignorance and nothing more.

“theres nothing wrong with him hes just annoying” is such a powerful grounding affirmation thank you toby fox. like you know what actually i don’t need to be mean to this person bc the thing that irritates me about them is perfectly harmless and subjective. it’s literally fine

*through gritted teeth* being annoying is not a moral failure

Apparently ICE now has agents posing as utility workers to get into people's homes. The electric and gas companies have posted information on how to tell if it's one of their workers, and numbers to call to confirm whether they've sent someone to do utility work on your house.

Stay safe, friends.

Hey in case nobody has told you and you need to hear it, you're not evil for being attracted to who you're attracted to.

Transfems, you're not hurting the transfeminism movement by liking men, you're not betraying your sisters by being attracted to guys. You're still queer even if you're in a straight/straight-passing relationship. You don't have to fall into gendered stereotypes just because you're in a straight-passing relationship, you can be masculine if you want to be. You don't have to pretend to be inconvenienced or grossed out by your attraction to men. You don't have to be ashamed of liking men. It doesn't make you any less feminist to date a guy.

Transmascs, you're not some gross fujoshi pervert for liking men. You're not fetishizing gay men by being one. You're not a delusional straight woman. You don't have to pretend to be inconvenienced or grossed out by your attraction to men. You don't have to be ashamed of liking men. It doesn't make you any less of a guy or a feminist to date a guy.

Transfems, you're not predatory for being attracted to women. You're not a creep for liking girls. You're not secretly a cishet guy trying to prey on girls who like girls, you ARE a girl who likes girls. It doesn't make you any less of a woman to date a woman.

Transmascs, you're not lesser for being attracted to women. You're not a queer woman trying to be a man for attention. You're not automatically evil for being a man attracted to women. You don't have to give into gendered stereotypes just because you're attracted to women, you can still be feminine if you want to be. You are just as attractive as a cis man.

Transneutral enbys, you're just as attractive and desirable as anyone who leans more fem or masc. You don't have to label your sexuality in any way that you don't like, don't let anyone pressure you into using any label that doesn't fit you. No matter who you choose to date it doesn't change your gender.

Someday you'll find someone who loves and respects you as you are, someone who won't try to detransition you or control how you present yourself. Someone who won't fetishize you and will love you genuinely. Whether that person be cis or trans, you will be loved. You're so very VERY lovable in ways you can never imagine. Someday you will find someone who loves you in all the ways you deserve and you will be very happy together.

i’ve warmed up significantly towards the concept of small talk ever since i learned that its sole purpose is to make friendly noises.

as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now.”

small talk isn’t to get to know a person. it’s just a greeting to affirm you’re buddies in the universe.

i am motivated by wanting the other person to know i am friendly, so i have gotten pretty decent at small talk when i used to hate it.

is this transandro guy implying that cis women can't understand misogyny.

the point is racism but you're fucking stupid

Conscentual non-con but the person getting pretend assaulted is putting on a god awful Australian accent and saying "NAUR OH NAUR NAUR I SAID NAURRR 😩🥴😉😉 NAURRR!!!!" the entire time

Yes they're moaning in an accent too, the acting is very bad too

The Dom just stops the scene and quits out of secondhand embarrassment and the Sub asks if it was too intense and realistic for them

this is what you're looking for to opt out!!!

It's under Visibility, noy Privacy like I assumed at first.

A lotta transfeminine resources tend to neglect that estrogen will give you the more stigmatised parts of having a female body as well as the cool stuff. Like. I have cellulite on my thighs. Stretch marks everywhere. Its so cool and pretty and neglecting to mention this to transgender women simply shows how stigmatised they are.

Its also worth noting that your body will be imperfect the way all women's bodies are. You'll never fit the patriarchal ideal. It took me YEARS to love my breasts in all their wonkiness and stretchmark-ness, and then I once mentioned to a cis friend I used to feel self-conscious about them and she said "All women do at some point"

Like my point is we are women, and we have the same expectations of unachievable perfection placed upon us. But learning to love your body and your womanhood with its imperfections, its cellulite its stretch marks etc. Is very good.

My Hater Post. Sorry

ALSO THIS

enby listen...

if you are going on androgens, have wolffian or phallic intersex traits and have aversion to touching or seeing your genitals because they are not accurate or dysphoric, im sorry.. but you HAVE to interact with your body in order to recognize what's happening to it and your relationship with it.

if you're on androgens and have rapid penile growth, you are going to have much more foreskin. you need to clean your foreskin otherwise you will get dick cheese - it smells, it makes your cock stink, and you would also taste like onions or plain coffee.

if you have wolffian traits, natal or neo, you need to clean your penis. if it's natal with foreskin, clean around and in it, throughly wash, and moisturize it to prevent chaffing. if it's neo, clean the pockets of skin the same way, but use scar gel, essential oils, or baby powder.

if you have intersex traits that results in penile growth or appearance, regardless of variance or size, you need to clean it!! use clean, sanitized hands around your genitalia and urethra.

if you cannot physically or mentally wash under the pressure of a shower, get a wet rag with a bucket of fresh water and wipe. DO NOT CLEAN YOUR URETHRA IN A BATH, you have high chances of getting a UTI that way.
