fags are allowed to say dyke and dykes are allowed to say fag in the same way that youre allowed to run up and slap your sibling on the back of the head

[aethersquid]

I fully agree with the sentiment but also seeing this reblogged onto my dash by my sibling feels like a warning.

gender is soup

i keep forgetting tumblr exists

[wheelie-sick]

if someone is asking for sign language advice, or Deaf character advice, or Deaf community advice, or Deaf anything advice, and you have to start your reply with "I'm not Deaf but ...." you need to do a couple of things:

find the backspace key on your keyboard

press it until you have deleted everything you wrote

write nothing else

that question is not for you to answer! you are not qualified! there are Deaf people on Tumblr and every other social media who can answer that question. it does not matter if you took ASL classes or Deaf culture classes and in fact having that background actually just means you should know better.

Your daily reminder to not put "You SHOULD be reblogging this" in your posts because you're going to trigger somebody's OCD. Especially when it comes to topics such as social justice or politics. Yes, your message is important but guilting people into reblogging it is not just reblog bait, but it can harm somebody mentally.

Intersex Terminology Masterpost

Click the links to read more (pride flags too) and feel free to add on! All terms are intersex exclusive unless otherwise stated.

General Terms

Intersex (Adj.) - A term to describe those who were born with a sex variation that led to having sex characteristics that aren’t traditionally male or female. Abbreviation is IS. Noun form is Intersexness (the word I personally use is Intersexuality). Read more here.

Dyadic (Adj.) - A term meaning “of two” used by intersex people to describe those who are not IS. Noun form is Dyad(s). 

Perisex (Adj.) - A term whose prefix means “around,” “near,” used and coined by intersex people to describe those who are not IS.

Endosex (Adj) - A term whose prefix means “within" - used to describe people who are not intersex.

Juxtasex (Adj) - A term whose prefix means “close to” - used and coined by intersex people to describe those who are not IS.

Variation - A term used to refer to the cause of someone’s intersexuality. It is generally to preferred instead of condition/disorder/etc., although every intersex person is different. Variations can involve chromosomal, hormonal, and/or gonadal differences. There are some variations listed on LGBTA Wikia, the main source for this masterpost.

DSD - An abbreviation meaning either “difference of sexual development” or “disorder of sexual development.” The latter is generally considered stigmatizing.

Intersexism / Inter(sex)phobia - The discrimination, prejudice, dislike, and hatred of and towards IS people.

Dyadism - [TW] The belief that being Dyadic is normal, correct, the default, etc., and that IS people are unnatural, wrong, diseased/deformed, insignificant, etc. Can also be called Perisexism, Endosexism, or Juxtasexism.

Assignment Related [TW]

Sex Assignment - Different from gender assignment, sex assignment is the process by which a person’s “biological sex” is determined. Everyone is assigned a sex and gender at birth, and for intersex people, sex assignment can be complicated and traumatic (see; IGM and Forced/Coerced HRT).

AXAB - Assigned “X” At Birth. For IS people who did not have a sex assigned to them at birth. A similar term is UAB.

AIAB - Assigned Intersex At Birth. For IS people whose intersexuality was recognized at birth. May be used in place of/alongside “AXAB.”

IAFAB / IAMAB - “Intersex Assigned Female At Birth” and “Intersex Assigned Male At Birth.” For IS people regardless of when their intersexuality was recognized.

CAFAB / CAMAB - “Coercively Assigned Female At Birth” and “Coercively Assigned Male At Birth.” These terms are not intersex exclusive and are generally used to underline the fact that gender assignment is nonconsensual. [TW] In the IS community these may be used to describe people who underwent IGM or other medical methods of assignment.

FAFAB / FAMAB - “Forcibly Assigned Female At Birth” and “Forcibly Assigned Male At Birth.” Used similarly to CAMAB / CAMAB in the intersex community.

IGM - [TW] Infant/Intersex Genital Mutilation. Used by IS people in reference to the surgical procedures used to alter intersex people’s genitalia/remove internal organs in order to assign or reassign our sex and/or gender.

Forced/Coerced HRT - [TW] Forced/Coerced “Hormone Replacement Treatment” is an experience that probably deserves its own name independent of HRT, however is called this due to lack of terminology. It refers to the hormones given w/o proper consent to IS people in order to make us appear dyadic. It also may be given as a result of IGM impairing or destroying organs responsible for the production of certain hormones.

Hey, I’m sorry if this question is bad or makes you uncomfortable (feel free to delete it if it does)

If I’m a trans man with bottom growth and many other changes to my body caused by testosterone, am I considered intersex? Because I have traits of the male and female biological sex

(Sorry if this is worded poorly)

no, intersex refers to a certain kind of sex nonconformity. our intersex variation is something we're more or less born with (i personally include people with acquired conditions as well, especially since they often have a genetic component). i can't explain why this is significant very well rn, but the term intersex was specifically coined so we wouldn't have to use diagnostic terminology or slurs to describe ourselves - it's a term that was made to empower and humanize us.

if you'd like though, some terms you could use are sex nonconforming (SNC), varsex, and i think mesosex? bisex and androgyne are some more specific terms (yes androgyne can be used for sex as well as gender). there's also transsex(ual).. and technically there is also altersex and while i dont have as strongly negative feelings towards the term altersex as i did before, it's coining circumstance still isn't the best.

It's my 3 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

[powerfulwizard]

some facts

-the stigma against vaginas in our society is rooted in misogyny

-laws that try to restrict and control vaginal health are also rooted in misogyny

-not everyone that has a vagina is a woman

-not all women have vaginas

-there are trans women with vaginas

-there are trans men with penises

none of these statements have any reason to contradict each other
