so much of being an ok person is just 1) not panicking, 2) not taking things personally, and 3) not letting the vindictive gargoyle that lives in your head tell you what to do. this sucks because brains love doing those things

Actually materially help trans people in hostile territory by donating here

"Your love language is what you were deprived of as a child" actually no you're allowed to want, prefer and like things without everything tracing back to some dormant unprocessed trauma. You can just say you want to bounce on it without having to explain how as a child you always wanted - but never got - a trampoline.

[academicblorbo]

Yeah this "love language is what you were deprived" take is a tiktok-pseudo psychology bullshit and we are more complex than th- wait what was that again

ik i've been mostly inactive for a while but i would like to state for the record:

tma/tme is not a "new binary" it's a useful way to discuss transmisogyny

"transandrophobia" isn't real, these guys are just misogynists

become transfeminist or die

[what-even-is-thiss]

You become at least 1% more patient I think when you remember that literally nothing is obvious. Nothing.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I spent years teaching Sunday school to toddlers and then spent a few years teaching British literature to adults and both of those experiences combined taught me that literally nothing in the universe is easy to understand at first glance. I ended up explaining just as many “obvious” things to the adults as I did the toddlers.

I’ve tried and failed to explain to a two year old that the world isn’t flat and I’ve tried and failed to explain to a 24 year old that Baptist doctrine didn’t exist before the reformation and I’ve tried and failed to explain to both age groups that girls can do boy jobs and boys can do girl jobs and some people go to work on the bus and don’t have a car.

And at a certain point? You start to realize that it takes years for even the simplest concepts to get into someone’s head. We’re born knowing how to breathe, swallow, scream, and suck and everything else is extremely confusing.

[porcelain-dollbones]

got called a misandrist for saying i think its bad if a man has no women friends

[porcelain-dollbones]

never understimate how hostile overtly liberal men will become if you start talking about feminist ideas in any way that suggests misogyny is still a major social force, especially if it implies even slightly that they or anyone they know might be misogynist

[notecardpasta]

I think when you correctly identify a trauma that is the base of a woe of yours it should just disappear. It should be like "aaahh. you got me" and vanish and leave 100 dollars behind

[countthelions]

#if you line up several neuroses and identify the interlocking connections between them they should all vanish like clearing a line in tetris (via @karliahs)

[strawberry-crocodile]

when someone says its bad to assume that someone else is a trans woman as opposed to a gnc cis guy what i hear is that if i do not pass they WILL misgender me

[strawberry-crocodile]

"No, I don't want to misgender you! It's just that if it came down to misgendering a cis man or misgendering a trans woman, I would care more about the cis man."

it is absolutely essential to have friends you can have extremely insane pervert conversations with. this is kind of what makes life worth living

[sexhaver]

hung out with cousin's DJ friend last night and he said the best compliment he's ever received was when he was DJing an orgy and did his research ahead of time and came prepared with Portishead/Massive Attack/Cocteau Twins/etc and halfway through the set, a woman stopped mid-blowjob and pulled the dick out of her mouth to say (to nobody in particular) "damn, this mix is incredible!"

[sidecast-text]

hey americans there is a recall on testosterone gel because they found benzene in it! please check the lot numbers on your batches, benzene is really not something you want to be rubbing into your skin, also you might be eligible for compensation because this is just insane what the fuck
