How The Rise of Androgyny Changed Our Passports

The rise of androgyny and unisex fashion in the 1970s was apparently responsible for the introduction of a sex marker in passports.

[milf--adjacent]

Oh wow so me saying "no government documentation should ever include a gender marker for any reason" has been right all along. For exactly the reason I stated when people were giving me shit for not supporting x markers on documents.

i see a lot of fanart etc of gideon where she is drawn as a very big and tall person and like yeah, valid and cool interpretation but like. consider. perhaps gideon is mostly perceived as so big because harrow is really tiny. like these ppl have been living in basically caves for thousands of years. maybe gideon is like 5’7 but harrow is only like 4’10. maybe gideon is 5’4 and harrow is 5’2 and gideon only rlly appears huge because she swings swords and harrow is a twig. yk?

[elevenbenevolentmammoths]

ah, but see, Gideon is an inch taller than Babs, who is "not a short young man". If Babs is of average height for a man (and all we know is he isn't shorter than average, he could very well be a bit taller), Gideon would have to be significantly taller than the average woman. #babsforscale

(we can assume that Gideon is under 6' though, through doing some math around the Tridentarii)

[itsrenactually]

I would be so fucking happy if we started using Babs as a scale for everything else in the TLT universe. The size of the cavaliers? Use #babsforscale. The size of the Erebos? #babsforscale. The depth of Drearburgh? #babsforscale. How big is Varun? Well, here's #babsforscale.

i wear desperation so well. i almost don't want to take it off

[maletolion]

my friends all refer to the smiths as killing yourself music but they only have like twenty songs about suicide. there’s lots about wanting to have sex with literally anyone and being mad that you’re gay

[beguilingcorpse]

and you may tell yourself: this is not my beautiful circus! and you may tell yourself: these are not my beautiful monkeys!!!

tme people, when a trans woman is being vocal about grieving the childhood that she never got to have, it is incredibly disrespectful to lecture her about the things that suck about growing up as a girl, because we DID grow up as girls. girls who were deprived at every angle of all the joys we sought, shoved into places and spaces where we did not belong, tortured by a community with a deep hatred of transfemininity.

if your instinct when confronted with a trans woman's grief is to contradict her and "correct" her, you need to do some serious self-reflection about why you believe it's your place to speak over her.

[fudamnshi]

(barely contained rage) wow. im so happy for you. enjoy your happy and healthy relationship

transitioning is like putting on the They Live glasses and seeing that 90% of people looking at you are either jerking off or furiously sharpening a knife. or both. and i do not mean that in a sexy or fun way, and i dont like clarifying that, but i know there's a 90% chance you are thinking it, because i wrote it while being a trans woman.

[paper-mario-wiki]

to clarify:

when considering the sexual violence against trans women, it's important to remember that "people only view us sexually" does not mean the same thing as "people only find us attractive". it means "people can only conceptualize of our existence within a sexual light" because that's how the majority of our coverage in media has been tinged in the past century. as a result of the chaste and patriarchal nature of modern capitalism, gender and sexuality are inseparable in much public discourse by virtue of propaganda, and as a result, a trans woman is seen as sexual because efforts towards projecting specifically femininity is only categorized as sexual. and when paired with the uncharitable perception of "man", that propaganda can often evolve how people view us directly into "sexual threat" anywhere, for any reason. i could be in the freezer aisle of costco looking down at the ground while i push my cart and i'd still get dirty looks for wearing a dress (this has happened).

when i say "they're either jerking off or sharpening a knife", i mean we're either viewed sexually, or as sexually threatening, in almost all scenarios.

you don't understand, you gotta take the estradiol to balance your humors. otherwise the black bile will overwhelm you. you just gotta

[what-even-is-thiss]

I’ve lived alone cooking for one and I’ve been the main cook in the house for several people. I’ve worked with a budget of ten dollars and I’ve worked with a weekly budget of three hundred dollars. And either way there’s just never enough freezer space somehow.

I don't take it as a gimme that a supposedly pro-trans environment is transfeminist. I go for months in a deep south red state getting she/her'd and ma'am'd by strangers, but in "woke" contexts I've been extensively they/them'd/degendered and spoken over due to being "an amab".

Obviously the average conservative would be far more dangerous to my person if clocked than any amount of microaggressing Portlanders, so I don't consider it the absolute worst thing to deal with. But it's of note to me that I am less likely to be seen as a woman by so-called allies.
