That's almost it for this Pride Month. Before we go, there's one more thing we'd like to show you. Please take a look:

A Transmasc queer academic saying that trans lesbians aren't real women and are all actually just fetishistic white transvestite men is some shit. And then referring to straight trans women as "street queens" as to make sure to misgender the rest of us for good measure.

Transmisogyny has so thoroughly spread through the queer community, that these fucks are willing to openly spout it as doctrine.

reclusive granny who has transformed her house in a library and who has passed away one day but didn't notice because her ghost form is similar enough and her cat doesn't seem to mind. anyway, now she's got more time to keep reading her books so she's happy

One thing that will improve your internet experience tenfold is remembering that you do not have to treat someone’s bad opinions as a serious threat if they have little to no influence on the world.

#my wife is on the SOR for being gay #no joke #she hit on a girl in a straight bar once #in 1997 #and while the girl was into it #the off duty cop sitting nearby was not #and so he arrested her for ‘soliciting homosexual activity’ #which in our state was still a felony #in 1997 (and would remain so until Lawrence v Texas in 2003) #and since ‘soliciting homosexual activity’ was a felony and a sex crime #she got put on The List #she is still on there to this day #because it costs MONEY to ask a judge to take you off #and she has tried four times#since 2003 #to get taken off the SOR #but every time the judge has said something like ‘no you pled guilty to the crime i can’t possibly take you off the sex offender registry’ #with no acknowledgement of what the actual crime was #(the crime of being a butch lesbian hitting on a cute girl who was into it) #(in 1997)

Reposting these tags with consent from the person that wrote them. The post about the Sex Offenders Registry is locked, but these tags are too important to go unnoticed.

Younger queer people need to realize that the SOR being used against queer people simply for being queer isn’t some ancient history thing. It still impacts queer people today. And it can quite easily be used that way again.

Listen!

When you hear people throwing around the talking point of “well there’s a high rate of sex offenders in the trans/queer community”, this has to do with why.

Being on the sex offender registry isn’t inherently equivalent to whatever horrific sex crime you’re meant to think of when it’s mentioned. It evokes imagery of pedophilia and rape, but there is a lot that can get you put on it and not a lot you can do to be taken off of it.

Public crossdressing used to be able to get you put on the sex offender registry (and by used to I mean as recently as 2011).

Public urination (you know, the literal only option for someone who’s homeless and doesn’t have access to public bathrooms, a venn diagram where trans people are more likely to rest in the meeting zone) can get you put on the sex offender registry.

Sex work is pretty much an automatic way to end up on the sex offender registry if you’re caught. (This is especially weaponized against black trans women who do sex work)

“Deviant Sexual Intercourse” (aka literally any sexual activity aside from penis-in-vagina penetration) could get you on the sex offender registry as recently as the early 2000s. That effectively impacts the entire queer community in one way or another.

The sex offender registry is, first and foremost, useless. It tells you nothing about what someone did. It’s mentioned to quickly associate a person or a group of people with the worst possible crimes imaginable.

It has been used against us time after time and it will continue to be used for that.

Also, it can easily happen to you.

You may be thinking: “but it is 2025 and I don’t do those things”

However, an aside from the fact you should care about other people, the average queer person’s internet history* will be sufficient to find some half-baked charge at least, for a motivated cop (and your ISP can usually be subpoena’d to give your history, and probably you haven’t been forensically careful to leave no trace).

*Precisely because there are many things considered “obscene” by your average judge’s conservative cishet sensibilities, and laws are generally written to allow for judicial interpretation.

If you think Tumblr auto-moderation’s idea of what is “potentially mature content” is woeful, wait until you find out what a court will consider “obscene” or “deviant” or whatever they want you to be today.

Having a nerdy girlfriend who loves to ramble with a relaxing accent is awesome because I get to listen to her nerd out about things and get sleepy from listening to her
