💕support nbs who don’t want to shave!💕

💕 support nonbinary people with facial hair, whether it’s just peach fuzz or a full-out beard

💕 support nonbinary people with hairy arms or hairy legs

💕 support nonbinary people with hairy armpits

💕 support nonbinary people with hair between their legs

💕 support nonbinary people with hairy chests or backs

💕 support nonbinary people who have ALL KINDS of body hair and don’t want to shave it for whatever reason and yes, this ABSOLUTELY includes feminine or androgynous or otherwise non-masculine nonbinary people. body hair doesn’t determine your gender identity or the validity of your presentation. you should be allowed to have your body hair however you like it and however makes you feel the most comfortable!! 💕

I haven’t seen a lot of positivity for nonbinary individuals with facial/body hair, so I made these. Whether you have no body hair, a little bit, or even a bushy beard like me, you’re just as valid as a nonbinary/genderfluid/trans brother/sister/sibling to the rest of us. You’re loved!

Amab nbs who wear “men’s” clothing

Amab nbs who don’t fit into most NB positivity posts

You are valid. You are loved. You are NB.

getting someone to rush to reassure me that amab nbs really are like 20% of nbs after hundreds of comments from amab nb’s talking about how they dont often talk openly about their gender or go to lgbt spaces cause they feel like theyre ‘invading’ due to feeling completely illegitimate in claiming their gender due to being amab sure is … something..

I call mine the hallway thing and say hello to it now. It seems to make things more peaceful.

Ive seen them. I like to think they are shadows of people from an alternate dimension or maybe even two universes inhabiting the same loction in both time and space but existing at different frequencies so we can easily perceive them.

americans, months ago: hey we just discovered that local news stations are actually being turned into state sponsored propaganda tools with terrorist alert desks and biased information about the fascist president which would influence public perception of him for those who trust their local stations. and we’d love to see more international news but apparently we’re not even getting accurate reports from our own backyards so for a lot of us common everyday folk we have to go out of our way to get news that’s not us-centric AND accurate

y'all, for some inexplicable reason: why don’t y'all know everything that’s happening everywhere else always? you must not care, that’s the only reason

“oh but you don’t look latine”

what? i have no idea what you’re talking about. i’m guessing you have a preconceived idea of what a latine should look / sound / do based on the “classic” latines that you see in the media all the time, like:

and they’re great, but there’s also white latines, like:

and don’t forget about the black latines, such as:

and the indigenous latines are also very important:

and there’s also chinese latines, like Harry Shum, Jr. yeah, thay guy from glee and the shadowhunters (the netflix show). i don’t know if he self identifies as latino, but he was born in Costa Rica and lived there for six years, so that makes him latino by definition.

in fact, there’s presence of many asian racial / ethnic groups, but they’re not very common in the media. that’s why i’m not including any pictures. but they’re here and we love them.

and let’s not even talk about the mixing going on with all of the above because this post could go on for years

so bottom line:

latinoamérica is a big beautiful melting pot of everything

latine is not a skin color, it’s an ethnicity

there’s no such thing as “looking latine”. all latines are different

and it is possible that not every latine self identifies as poc

So two weeks ago was Pride for us here in the city i call home. Everyone was out in their various outfits and flags and colors representing who they are. My partner had a booth set up for their small business and I was mingling with folks, promoting my partners wares, but most importantly; i was celebrating my existence as a member of this wonderful community. This year i wanted to be bolder with my outfit. I wanted to stand out a little more than i was comfortable with. I wanted show off my body hair with pieces that accentuate it. I wanted to be seen. So i did. I danced and sang and spent lots of time with my friends and chosen family. I got many appreciated compliments and welcome nods of approval. I even got interviewed for the local university’s magazine. Not that i needed those, but seeing how people reacted positively towards me dressed as i was made me feel empowered. Like i could do anything and not have to worry. I admit that i was nervous. I speak for myself when i say that as an amab with body hair its hard presenting in any way feminine. This Pride celebration was me taking a step for myself to be brave and normalize my body. I don’t need to change it for me to be beautiful. I don’t need to fit into your puzzle. I don’t need to blend in. If anything i need to stand out and emphasize the best parts of me. All of me. I was born this way and i accept this. It’s a struggle but i know i can do it. For all of my friends in this wonderful, beautiful, and colorful community, wherever you are in the world, you can do this. Your bodies are gorgeous. You are loved. Your hearts are strong and you are valid. You will find love. You will find joy. You will find your own peace and you will never be alone. Happy Pride. P.S Tumblr Id like to give a little shout out to D.Thomas of Thomasvisuals.com for taking the great picture of me above. They were so much fun to work with and get to know. If youre looking for some photos done, I highly recommend them.
