Reach AND Flexibility

721 Days on HRT (06/23/16 - 06/13/17) - Hello one and all! My name is Gwendolyn, or just Gwen. I'm a trans woman of color looking to find happiness and acceptance with who I am and the people around me. If all you bring to my page is prejudice, discrimination and hate mongering, then go fuck yourself, and fuck off my page. Also! I'm NSFW LITE. Which means there may be some not safe for work things on my blog, but it won't be anything hardcore. Just a warning for those UNDER 18! Thanks!

tHIS IS THE SINGLE MOST BRILLIANT THING I HAVE EVER HEARD I WAS IN HYSTERICS AT 2 CUIL

[butchyena]

i find this hilarious considering The Cuil Theory was a popular meme back in 2012, with a similar format as a popular Welcome To Nightvale meme. “weird” posts would usually have an additional reblog with “and now, the weather” in reference to WTNV but for a few months, “weird’ posts would be ended with “i give you a hamburger”. the peak of the meme was around late october of 2012, the actual video itself being published february of 2012. 

its a meme revival

And now… The weather.

The reality is the world is an extremely dangerous place for women because men continue to feel entitled to rape, murder and attack us especially when alone.

[hydropepper-deactivated20190707]

M’y boyfriend went on a week long solo backpacking trip through Montana and Idaho. I told him I wish that I could do something like that. To which he replied « the only thing stopping you is experience » (I am admittedly an inexperienced backpacker). No, no it’s not just experience. It’s never about just experience.

[officialweatherwax]

A college friend of mine started travelling the world after he graduated and when I said I wished I could do that he gave me the same speech about “what’s stopping you, you have nothing to be afraid of”. They just don’t understand how different the world is for women.

[agrarianradfem]

I did it. I backpacked to 8 countries around the world solo in the course of a year. But my experience was much different than that of men who do it. I knew not only where I would be sleeping every night, but made sure they were well rated hostels (usually female only rooms) or families. In New Zealand I also slept in a car but only at official sites. I took cabs rather than hitchhike. I made sure my flights arrived in my next country early in the day so I didn’t have to rush about for any reason. When I went hiking in NZ and Switzerland people always knew where I was and when I expected to be back or they were trails popular with families.

It takes extra vigilance and extra money to solo backpack as a woman.

[fallopian]

The amount of men who have questioned why I can’t just backpack through vietnam or bribe my way across borders like they did is astounding. How do they not know what it’s like?

[littie-titties-deactivated20190]

I always thought how dumb that dude who got his arm trapped in a rock and had to cut it off was for not telling anyone where he was going or where he would be. Then I realized the socialization really jumped out there. Women are forever having to take precautions to make sure we don’t get murdered or some other horrific ending and that everyone knows where we are in case we go missing. Men do whatever tf they want, often carelessly, because they’ve never had to experience the reality of being female in this world.

If you would report an undocumented immigrant to ICE you would have reported me to the Nazis and I don’t fucking trust you

[prismatic-bell]

A note:

I live in a state where you “have to” report anyone you suspect of being undocumented (that wonderful hellhole of Arizona). Now in practice this law has fallen far short, thank goodness. But if you live in such a place and they start enforcing it, here is how you get around it:

Assume everyone who doesn’t speak English is visiting.

Never ask about their job, because if they tell you they work here then you know they’re not visiting. You see them a lot for several weeks or months? Hm. Someone in the family must be ill. That’s terribly tough. They always dress in old, ratty laborers’ clothes? I feel you, my dude, I can’t afford new clothes either, and my dad has the fashion sense of an aardvark, so sometimes it’s not even about “affording” them. They say they’ve been here for years? You must have misunderstood. Spanish isn’t your first language, after all. First and last name? It never came up, or you don’t recall–you meet a lot of people.

And then, if you’re asked: no, you haven’t seen anyone residing illegally in the United States. Just people visiting.

[date-a-jew-suggestions]

Very good very important addition

[appropriately-inappropriate]

Essentially, this is the civil society version of a work-to-rule strike.

Don’t do more than is expressly asked of you, and do what you are asked with such an intense attention to protocol that not asking you at all becomes more effective than even bothering.

In this case:

“Have you seen an illegal immigrant?”

“Could you describe an illegal immigrant, officer?”

*officer describes a person who is in the country without appropriate paperwork, or who has crossed the border illegally*

“No, sir, I haven’t seen any illegal immigrant.”

And this is correct. You have NOT seen an illegal immigrant, because you have no way of knowing if Jose Fulano is here legally or not. And since you can’t see his paperwork (or lack thereof), and did not personally see him cross the border illegally, you are only answering precisely the question asked.

[dancingwiththelostboys]

I’m not American, and I have like, three followers, but this is important.

[thelawfulchaotic]

So, I’m a lawyer, who deals with immigration though does not specialize in it. But here’s the thing(s): 

1) Even someone who’s working could be here on a migrant (or other sort of) visa (hey, there are a few thousand per year, and *someone*’s got to get them, right?) or could be waiting for their case to resolve in immigration court, after having come to America to join a born or naturalized American family member. 

2) Even people who are working improperly could have come into the country legally – and just overstayed their visa or be violating the conditions of their visa, and you have no idea what the niggly little regulations that govern that might be. 

3) If a law enforcement officer asks you about a neighbor/friend/etc., take this moment to remind them that, unlike them, you cannot ask a random person off the street for their ID and be entitled to a response. 

4) Even if someone has told you that they are undocumented, you still don’t know, do you? Humans lie all the time. How could you know for sure? You can’t, because they can’t prove that they have a lack of papers. Just because you haven’t seen papers doesn’t mean they don’t exist! 

5) Don’t ever talk to cops in general. Why are you talking to a cop? Stop that, as soon as it is safe and feasible. 

Love,

a very tired public defender
