Queer Academic's graduation thesis circa 2100AD: It cannot not be assumed that any Gunmetal Olympus character was transexual or transgender, as these terms do not appear in the texts themselves and from what we can tell the authors did not support the term.

aw man who elses sexuality is a weird little puzzle box that needs a particular external cipher to make sense of

i dont even hate being called bro and dude i just tell cis people not to do it as a litmus test

women kissing each other reblog if you agree

The myth underlying this is that trans people (trans women specifically) were ever "invisible." We were objects of fascination, scorn, mockery, and fetishizing long before 2014 (for about the entire history of mass media really). What really broke a lot of brains was the idea we deserved dignity

GET THIS COOP, THEY CALL THEM STANDS. HORRIBLE SPECTERS MANIFESTED THROUGH THE SHEER WILLPOWER OF THEIR HOST. THE SHEER ABILITY OF THESE HORRORS CAN RIVAL THE GODS OR SIMPLY BE A NUISANCE, A REAL COIN FLIP. IT SEEMS TO ONLY MANIFEST IN THE MOST FLAMBOYANT AND OVERLY-DRESSED SO I SUPPOSE WE'RE SAFE.

ominous....

"the path boy->man is not the 'natural default, from which transfemininity is deviation, but rather forging a man out of boy is active ritualized process'" & "the boy [insofar as one is girl, fag, man-in-training etc] is often a nonbinary mode between girl, woman, and man" are useful rules of thumb

Transitioning isn't any more bourgeois or neoliberal or reifying sex than not transitioning. We are all prisoners of patriarchy, dollface, so grab a fucking shovel.

i wanna know what goes on inside cis people's brains. how do i get hit with the "so he can- she can bla bla bla" from people that i've worked with for years that have never known me pretransition. What is wrong with cis people.

I think that once they know you're trans, in their head you change from "a woman" to "a man that wants to be called a woman"

fetishizing trans people's bodies doesn't normalize them

girl I have got to stop meeting girls who are living fully visibly as women but haven't started hormones yet because I hit the sales pitch like NOBODY'S business but also because like... who is telling people to do things in this order why is this so common?? there's a better way 😭😭😭😭

However, what jumped out to me when I first read it wasn't the "gender critical" kind of transphobia but transmisogyny specifically. The specific ways Brianna's killers dehumanised her prior to murdering her were based in sexualisation and a puerile fascination with her genitals.

thats MC HamHER to you

When I'm in a making things the fuck up competition and my opponent is somebody who supports trans medical gatekeeping.

She says that Brianna would have been "safer" not growing up online. How? Spell it out. Would Brianna have been safer, or would she have been cut off from the resources that allowed her to advocate for herself, learn who she is, and transition? Does "safer", to Esther Ghey, mean "closeted"? "Cis"?

Esther Ghey hated her daughter and hated that she was trans. when she was murdered she empathised with her killers over the child she lost because she already felt she lost the child she actually cared about

social media that's bad for minors is obviously bad for adults too. crazy to me that the move seems to be to just accept that and ban minors rather than regulate the obvious design patterns that were put in there on purpose which make it harmful to its users

@badambulist.bsky.social once again your writing is my favourite its so fkn funny that you've distilled my relationship w my cousin from the other side of the country down into one single email reply joke

theres something about a like 8mo pregnant doctor telling a trans woman she cant raise her dose bc high hormone levels are simply too dangerous to risk that makes me want to rip my own brain out and flatten it with a rolling pin

All this happening under a Labour government, too. Between this, the anti-trans stuff, the anti-immigration things, and everything else happening over there, they really are not setting a good example of the benefits of "lesser evil" voting if they get power and immediately try to outflank fascists.

"you can't change your sex" ok maybe YOU can't, but i can. now watch this drive.

need my NYC whore phase fr

my boobs are woke btw

>talking to a trans woman with low energy and libido >ask her if her hrt dosage is creepy or wet >she doesnt understand >pull out illustrated diagram explaing what is creepy and what is wet >she laughs and says “it’s a good regimen ma'am” >learn her dosage >its wet

what trans youth need is the right to change sex. it doesnt help trans kids that the most popular argument in "support" of them is that most of them do not change their sex. i need cis ppl to make peace w the idea that more kids would change their sex if anyone would actually let them

gender-affirming care for minors is an actual miracle cure. for all of human history prior to the mid-1900s trans people just had to scrape together whatever life we could amidst the constant debilitating mental and physical suffering when administered early enough, GAC completely prevents that

...send link to misandrist feed pls.

trans children deserve the puberty they want as much as cis children, a puberty being “natural” does not make it better or less of a choice, and that most people think otherwise just shows that most people have very parriarchal, essentialist, biologist and teleological views on human bodies.

girl, an upper class boyfriend can estrogenate me anytime are you joking

A positive masculinity is one which annihilates the distinction and so annihilates itself entirely.

Wizards:

crucial reason to talk to people not caught up on your personal lore and neuroses is you can get reality checks like "why do you think you dont pass, are you insane"

my outlandish wish for this pride is id like no more trans people to die

one day itll be totally normal to customize your endocrine system

hahaha by shit NOBODY knows how to react when you have a complain about being misgendered like it happened like four times yesterday and I told three separate people, all of whom went "oh you know people just don't know" or "yeah dudes just love to call everyone 'man', even full females" dawg

sentences you can read, even when you can't

controversial opinion but I think random trans women should be allowed to have slightly problematic beliefs on the internet without being harassed and dogpiled off the internet

My 'old ladies think i'm cis' shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by the shirt
