Polite Nerd Mantis Guy

He/It - Sideblog, follow+ask+like from NonexistentNull

[mantischatters]

Hey! I only heard about the mollis/virago community recently, but I wanted to join and decided to make a sideblog for this. 

Call me Null, I use it/its and he/him, masc terms please. I’m a trans man, mollis, butch, soft-masc. I’m aromantic allosexual and straight (also lesbian, it’s complicated). I also have autism, depression, and chronic pain. 

I struggle with tone, so sorry if i come off as rude. I try to be polite and understanding, I’m not trying to fight. 

Feel free to send asks :) i like talking. anon is turned on for now

I draw and write. I’m pretty busy working on my comic (among other life stuff), but I share art occasionally

I’ll mostly here to observe, but i do post some :)

WARNING i don’t tag reblogs with content warnings, and i reblog stuff that includes gore, self harm, suicide, bigotry, nudity, etc. if you follow me and something really bothers you, just message me and i’ll start tagging it

image ids : 6 userboxes (all made by me), with text and a matching picture. they say ‘this user is mollis (masc 4 masc)’, ‘this user is a trans man and uses he/him’, ‘this user is void punk and uses it/its’, ‘this user is aro allo (aromantic allosexual)’, ‘this user has autism’, and ‘this user has chronic pain’. end id

Nonlesbians saying that the definition of lesbian is women loving women or nonmen loving nonmen will never not piss me off because lesbianism is NOT defined by what it excludes. Its not defined in three words. Its not a bite sized concept. Its a culture, a lifestyle, a fucking religion for some of us. Its not just girls kissing and I'm so sorry to burst your bubble

[drpepperwhoree]

remember that pride is still a protest

[trans-yaoi]

Happy pride! Please be respectful towards GNC people. They're not secretly trans or secretly cis. They are what they say they are.

I forgot to post this. But also appreciation to the studs. I've seen appreciation for the butches and that's valid and good, but what about the studs? I adore you guys and we love you for all you've done in fighting for the community since the beginning. For constantly fighting societal representation of black queer women. We see you and appreciate you.

fucked up my T shot today and last week (only got like half my dose each time) and i am so upset. goddammit

something wild about watching the "men and women are not two different species, individuals should get to choose which gender roles they follow" feminism come back it fills me with hope and joy

for years i was told by feminists that my gender nonconformity, which i started showing at 3 years old, was me "emulating the patriarchy" out of internalized misogyny

at the same time, i was constantly told by both men and women that i was worthless and ugly because i wore mens clothes, because i didnt shave my legs, because i didnt wear makeup or style my hair like a girl or sit with my knees together or act demure and soft and gentle

anyway, "divine femininity" needs to die

i think we should talk about degendering more as a very real form of transphobia. you should not be calling a trans woman "they" when she's explained her pronouns to you. you should not be calling her a "person" instead of a woman. she's not too gnc, she's not too androgynous, you're not "confused" about her identity, you're degendering her. I fear we've gotten to a point we've forgotten the very basics of this movement is "trans women are women" and "trans men are men", and not just "trans people are someone who's pronouns you have to memorize so you don't offend them." you see her as a man in a dress and it pisses me off

the state does not need to assign you a sex, nor does it need to keep inalterable record of it btw

[mousidy]

a very interesting terf objection to this one boils down to "but how would the state know who to protect?" because it speaks to the incredible privilege of being in a class the state actually ever remotely wants to protect. most oppressed groups do not want the state to have a registry of them, lol

[mousidy]

the patriarchy has done a great job convincing white cisgender women that it's in their best interests to maintain it

[mousidy]

[flintloc-k]

oouuuughhhh I know I'm meant to be supporting female-gaze men/male characters in media but the problem is straight women and me have very different taste in what makes a man beautiful

[quioro]

As a virago straigh woman i fckin agree feels very isolated

[pjharvey]

we have to start running a massive PSA campaign to young gay people so everyone understands there is a difference between being a dom and being a top and between being a sub and being a bottom. and also that sometimes you are neither a sub nor a bottom and you're just like shy. we need to be handing out flyers we need ads at every train station spreading the word

When I was in 5th grade a girl told me that “black boys couldn’t be pretty” it took me a long time to see something worthwhile in the mirror

[cowboy]

A girl can be a handsome fella. This is obvious
