Queering the binary

Hey, I'm Gerome. I'm hoping to find other trans and/or queer blogs to get and give support from. Disclaimer: This is my blog that is made for my thoughts and rants. I will talk about cis and straight people. I am not here for your all's approval. So, if you are supportive, come on in. If not, move along.

Detroit teachers stage “sickout” over horrible conditions, force schools to close

Eighty-eight of Detroit’s 97 public schools were closed Wednesday when teachers participated in a districtwide “sickout” to push for demands related to school conditions and their rights as employees. The protests align with a very high profile visitor in Detroit.

Like I really encourage people that are so “YAAASSS DRAG QUEENS GET IT GURL YAASSSS LGBT COMMUNITY” to ask themselves why they find it so entertaining? Perspective. I, a trans woman, a year or so into her transition, an still constantly called “sir”, am clocked or misgendered every single day. Whatever.

But then I see the massive support for drag queens, in our community, at almost every lgbt event, on tv for fuck sake. And like, these LITERAL MEN DRESSING UP AND PLAYING FICTITIOUS CHARACTERS, yet they get called she/her/girl without so much as even a thought. It’s so silly, it’s all in good fun! Then you can take your cute lil costume off and thats that!! It’s fucking infuriating to me?!?

All I’m saying is, think about it. This is my perspective, as a trans woman on it. Think about why it’s so entertaining and fun and totally not transmisogynistic. Think about why men dressing up in costumes get respected as women more than actual women do. 😊

i just read a post that claimed trans men in queer spaces are more dangerous than cis men in queer spaces because trans men often try to convince people they don’t have male privilege

but

1) cis men also try to convince people male privilege doesn’t exist, or worse, whine about “misandry” 2) closeted/non-passing trans men in queer spaces don’t have the same privilege as do passing & out trans men. collapsing the category of “trans man” into one generalizable set of experiences and how others perceive their gender identity limits analysis 3) in queer spaces like gay bars, trans men are subject to a lot of transphobia cis men don’t experience. in trans queer community spaces, the presence of a cis man is invasive and predatory, whereas trans men deserve to have safe trans spaces

this does not mean that trans men who deny their male privilege aren’t at fault for doing so. this just means that it’s absurd to claim that trans men are worse than cis men because it’s potentially easier for a trans man to deny his male privilege. that is a bad and harmful argument and it rests on individuals to admit their privilege and understand what that means when they enter certain spaces.

Laugh tracks are so sad and depressing to me.

Trans women should not have to choose between hormones and paying rent, period.

Is it transphobic if I like guys and a trans guy doesn't have/want a dick so I don't wanna date him

so what you’re saying is you date genitalia

[saddestspaghetti]

This is ridiculous. It’s perfectly okay to not want to date someone that doesn’t satisfy you sexually. It’s not transphobic nor does it mean that you’re dating someone’s genitalia. Don’t let anyone make you feel bad for not wanting a relationship that doesn’t satisfy all of your needs.

[weklwejrwaejflasfkraewl-deactiv]

^^^^ it would be transphobic to say that you aren’t attracted to trans people or that you aren’t willing to date a trans person but there’s literally nothing a person can do about the kind of genitals they find attractive like if a guy didn’t wanna date me because I had a penis I wouldn’t find that transphobic or like unreasonable at all tbh?

[velvetbomber]

This is fucking stupid. I respect trans people & don’t have any problems with them or their struggle, but wouldn’t date one.

If that makes me transphobic, you can fight me.

Tumblr works TOO HARD to be OVER-INCLUSIVE sometimes

[heaven-chaos-deactivated2023090]

trust me if you micro-analyzed why you wouldn’t be willing to date a trans person, it’s probably rooted in transphobic ideology, even if you do not consider yourself consciously transphobic.
