Thinking about how in the book version of Fight Club, Marla Singer’s post-coital line is, “I want to have your abortion,” and the film studio said it was too controversial and replaced it with, “I haven’t been fucked like that since grade school.” Anyway I don’t like it when men make things and I wish they’d stop.

Native Women's Association of Canada launches interactive MMIWG map | CBC News

The Native Women's Association of Canada (NWAC) is launching an interactive map of cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls 

[inukradfem]

"The Native Women's Association of Canada (NWAC) is launching an interactive map of cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls to collect data and help identify patterns of violence in geographic areas.

The project is called Safe Passage."

"Every day I talk to moms that have lost their children and they can't find them," said Lynne Groulx, NWAC's CEO.

She said that as a mother herself she can't imagine not being able to find the remains of her child.

The final report of the national inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls found a significant lack of data on cases.

"If we don't know the scope of the issue, then it's very hard to actually really deal with it," said Groulx.

So far, the map has been populated by just over 300 pinpoints where someone was last seen or remains have been found.

Users will be able to click on a pin to get information about how many Indigenous women in that area have gone missing or have been killed.Link to the project (https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/f545d93082d24547b5100784b709c303)

Dick-havers (prostate bearers, sperm people, semen producers, non-women, non-birthers, non-creators, etc) attacking women physically, sexually, or threatening such action will never be revolutionary.

I ran out of testosterone patches today and I'm honestly considering detransitioning. Even if I ordered another batch now, I wouldn't get them for another 3−4 days at least, so part of me is like, this is my chance and it's most likely the only one I'll get where I won't be questioned why I stopped T. But another part of me feels like I'm too far gone. I have been on HRT for five years. Everything about me has been masculinized to the point that I pass as a man without even trying. (1/?)

(2/?) I have an extremely deep voice. I've lost some of my hair due to the testosterone and it's... pretty male-looking. When I look at myself in the mirror and try to imagine myself in a female-only space, I only envision myself as an imposter. I feel like I'd scare the women there, thinking I'm a trans woman or even just a man breaching on their privacy. I'm a lesbian and I can't envision another woman wanting to date someone who destroyed their body with hormone treatments.(3/3) I know that the general consensus on here is that detransitioned women are still women, but I had already decided to shed myself of that label as a stupid teenager and now I feel like no matter what I do, I am stuck. None of my friends know that I am/was transgender. My family spent so much money on me to ensure I could transition. No matter what, I'm letting someone down. I'm sorry for all of this, I just wanted to let it out somewhere anonymously. Thank you for listening.

It sounds like you are experiencing Sunk Cost Fallacy - the belief that too much has been invested to back down now, despite the fact that backing down makes much more sense than going deeper.

I'll tell you this - you get one life. And you can live it for other people, or you can live it for yourself. And living our lives for ourselves is often messy, and uncomfortable, but it is always worth it.

Your parents didn't waste that money. They made an investment in your happiness at the time, and it probably made you happy then! There wasn't a way for you to know what would make you happy long term, you were a kid. And they love you, and when/if you tell them you're detransitioning, they'll love you then, as well. And you can even phrase it as "thank you for always investing in my happiness, I cannot thank you enough".

So my advice is to not go deeper when you want to stop. There is an amazing community of detransitioners on here, Twitter, and even IRL who I know would welcome you with open arms.

Your friends, if they truly care for you, will accept you as a detransitioner as well. It might be a bit of a shock for some of them, but vulnerability is the root of connection.

Overall, you can only make the decision that's best for you. You don't have to rush anything. Maybe it starts with quitting Testosterone and seeing how you feel. Nothing says you have to update friends and family that same week. Take your time. Trust yourself.

Also, if anyone is detrans or has detrans blogs to recommend, or resources, please link them. I hope this helps!

anon sounds a lot like me, or their fears sound a lot like my fears when i was first detransitioning. i actually stopped T because i ran out of testosterone (injections) and couldn’t find a doctor in a new city to represcribe it easily so i decided to just go off and see how i felt. turns out i felt better and better the longer i was off. i also didn’t tell anyone until i was like...6 months off? then just my mom and some friends. everyone was fine with it. i eventually told everyone who mattered. nowadays, i still tell people but it’s totally reversed. instead of telling them i’m going to be detransitioning, just yesterday i told a new friend i once lived as trans and he was surprised to learn it. time changes everything.

anon, like you i was on T for many years (over 5 for me) and i felt “too far gone,” but now, 3 years detransitioned, i am relieved to say i wasn’t too far gone, neither are you! i passed very easily, i had a deep voice and a masculinized hairline. both of those have changed. my hairline has grown back completely, something that until recently has still been changing. my voice is still deeper than it was originally, but it is not as deep as it was on T. i’ve heard a lot of mixed experiences from detrans women on this front, but my experience shows me it’s possible for change to happen, and i haven’t done any “voice training.”

i was so afraid of being seen as an imposter in women’s spaces or of other lesbians no welcoming me or being attracted to me, but women recognize other women. it’s scary at first, but i’m confident you will find acceptance and community among women, of you want it.

please reach out to me, you are not alone. best of luck, welcome home.

I wanted to post this because I thought it was sweet, but I think it’s also a good reminder to allies and also fellow lgbt members that people seeing you is important and for lgbt+ people when you are ready to come out, if you ever are (if you aren’t that’s also okay, and you should only come out if you are ready), it can make a world of difference to other people and you are doing something good!

Also I think it’s important to remember, amongst the discourse and the horrible things that happen in the world, we have allies and we have each other ✨

I know this dates back a while, I saw it last year and cried.

I hope everyone involved here, especially thst sweet young dude, is doing great.

“Hi there adult stranger!

My parents and legal guardians don’t agree with me compressing my chest,damaging my lungs and deforming my ribcage. I know better them and so I’m asking you, random stranger, if you wouldn’t mind helping me go behind my parent’s backs to do myself physical damage!”

This is not a yay. This is a “holy shit where are the fucking adults?!”

What the fuck

[just-shower-thoughts]

Doofenshmirtz isn’t incompetent; he *plans* his inventions to fail. Why? Because it was never about the inator. He just wanted Perry to show up so he could talk to him about his past struggles. It’s how he overcomes his trauma, it’s therapy.

Hey, you know how TERFs say that gay men are attracted to penises and lesbians to vaginas. Well, I have been doing some thinking and realised... how?

Because some trans people look like this:

Like, if I saw them out and about I wouldn't even think they were trans.

And we don't all walk around naked. So, how can you be attracted to something you can't even see? I just don't understand the logic here lmao.

[blocktostaysafe]

Neither of these people actually "pass" IRL... but that's not really the point.

And so what if a gay person is superficially attracted to a trans person for a moment? The attraction will quickly evaporate once we realize they are not our same sex. Because we are gay.

When I was in HS, I went to see le tigre with a straight classmate who thought JD Samson was hot based on the gig poster. Once she realized JD is actually female, my classmate was no longer attracted because she is heterosexual. The fact of JD's biological sex was enough to kill any surface attraction she initially felt. Similarly, some heterosexual men may be superficially attracted to feminine transwomen, but lose any attraction when they learn he is male.

This is not a complicated concept.

[garden-owler]

Yeah the difference is one is somewhat calm, capable of being articulate, approachable, and kind. The other is loud, overbearing, entitled and obnoxious. Androgynous people have always existed, that does not disprove homosexuality, youre just superficial, not to mention homophobic.

Also the fact youre trying to entice osa people into desiring ssa people is disgusting. Isnt one round of gay conversion therapy (Lesbian -> straight, Gay -> straight) enough? You have to attempt another? Leave them alone.

I mean it from the bottom of my heart when I say some of y’all truly don’t deserve to have internet access

[kaccvcate]

Terfs all have picrew icons because they lack the creativity to make their own art and they all have the same boring ass taste. Bunch of fucking losers and assholes.

On a related note if any trans furries out there want a free icon of their sona in honor of pride month lmk. I know pride month is coming to a close but I'm extending it like mardi gras because I'm in a bitchy mood

[opabiniawillreturn-deactivated2]

it's actually the literal opposite lmao

[butterflybi-moved]

It’s so hurtful to know that people genuinely think that bisexuals point out instances of biphobia because we enjoy drama and discourse and not because biphobia is something that causes pain and hardships in our lives

[butterflybi-moved]

When you think about it, this issue comes from people once again not being able to separate bisexuality from its stereotypes and framing bisexuals who mention biphobia as those pesky Attention Seeking Bisexuals

[radfemetc]

[illalwaysbehere]

The definition of woman is “hate speech”, but advertising how much you want to kill feminist women is “activism”.

I. Hate. The. Left.

[old-school-butch]

I have never seen a trans person calling for the death of men who murder them. I defy anyone to send me such a pic.

It’s just so much safer to hate women.

[pharahsgf]

it always makes me sad to see the cropped image on my dash cuz like

the original specifically centers bi women’s sexuality & that context just gets cropped out 😔

[whilommm]

you know usually biphobia is a lil more subtle than “literally cropping the bisexuality out of the image” but well, least they make it easy sometimes

[ms-gay-frogs]

i really hate to cry biphobia but there’s a uniqueness specific to bisexual women’s sexuality that i feel we should represent. i like it both ways, even if i personally wouldn’t fuck a guy.

[badapplebisexual-deactivated202]

ehhh. my main critique here is that with the man it appears to be more intimate, whereas with the woman it’s more distant. also the guy looks like a unique human being whereas the woman looks like a copy of herself with a tan.

[skunkpig-deactivated20210725]

wow, i had the same thoughts but i didn’t want to say anything 😩 although i would agree it’s kinda tacky to crop out the original image and put it on a blog for “lesbian art.”

[mclennonyaoi]

at the department store and saw a shirt w just the word “queer” across the front. kind of feel like companies have gotten WAY too comfortable taking our words and slurs that have been used against us, to belittle and harm our community- and then selling them back to us.

[mclennonyaoi]

terfs don’t fucking touch this. i block on sight.

[aa-terf-deactivated20231025]

Hey there, do you mind answering whats your opinion on "female privilege" when it comes to male rape victims? Cause Ive seen this post https://nunyabizni.tumblr.com/post/175308191247/montana-woman-with-machete-hides-behind

And the notes are stating bs like "feminists changed the law to protect female rapists" "As long as you have a pussy you can break into someone's home and rape them" "

I cant imagine that "female privilege" is real tbh but im a bit unsettled by this. Im curious what you think about it ❤️

TW: rape.

Show me a single woman who has broken into a man's house or violently raped him to death, show me a group of women gang raping a man to death until his organs prolapse. Oh wait, women don't do that men do. So even if women had privilege when it came to getting away with rape, which they don't, the reason people don't believe men when they say a woman raped them is because women don't rape very often and men are the ones who lie about rape not women
