My detailed post of my Palestinian lesbians (original piece), just as a short little introduction to some Palestinian cultural items!

it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.
i feel like ppl who are against kids transitioning don’t understand the degree to which pediatrics are fine with medical intervention for kids. like really? this is where you draw the line?
when i was like ten i couldn’t sit still in class so a bunch of adults unanimously decided to give me meth. like. hello

“Tell him baby” had me kicking my feet and blushing.
femme, in what way?
femme in the way i place kiss marks on everything
femme in the way i routinely wear the jewelry that makes me feel pretty
femme in the way i play dress up in my room every chance i get
but also femme in the way i walk with my chin held high
femme in the way that my heels clack on the floor everytime
femme in the way i beam out a smile and a “good morning!” when i walk into a room
but also femme in the way i quirk my brow at offputting statements
femme in the way my eyes glare at the sight of people placing discomfort towards the ones i love
femme in the way the tone of my voice immediately changes as i defend butches and studs with my life from people who discriminate against them
but also femme in the way i always remind the ones i love to take care of themselves
femme in the way i dote on my beloveds whenever i can
femme in the way i never shy to say i love you to the people i care about deeply
"Trans women are actually women for real, not in a metaphorical sense, not in a "anyone can be anything" sense, but genuinely actually make more taxonomic sense to classify in the category of women than any other group you could classify them in" is a position you'll find is pretty radical even in queer spaces
I recently posed a question to my cis followers on Bsky about whether they could defend the idea that trans women are in fact women.
The overwhelming response was, while well-meaning, sorely disappointing and along the lines of "of course trans women are women, 'woman' is ultimately a meaningless category, you can be whatever you like".
It was such a profoundly sobering experience because I realized that most people have framed their conception of trans rights around owning bigots and dunking on them in arguments instead of an affirmative understanding of trans marginalization, a comprehension of the struggles we face in a cissexist, patriarchal society, or even a basic familiarity with how we are seen and regarded and treated institutionally.
'Woman' is not a meaningless category in a patriarchy. It is a positionality, one that trans women undoubtedly occupy, and most cis people--even allies, even the ones who believe they want to do right by us--do not fundamentally accept the premise that we actually inhabit this position and navigate society as women.
It's an epistemic chasm I don't quite know how to cross, which is unfortunate as I've inadvertently dedicated my life to doing so. Ascertaining just how wide that gap in understanding is was alarming, if necessary.
To cis readers, all I can say is that if you only think trans women can be women in a world where the word 'woman' holds no meaning, you're more aligned with the Gender-Conservative position on us than you think. You might want to unpack that.
