"Gender Dysphoria" describes the DISTRESS that 'sometimes' comes with gender incongruence, but not all trans people will experience that distress, and many trans people are at a point where they no longer have dysphoria. "Gender Incongruence" describes the disconnect, why we we aren't the genders people think we are or thought we were. Gender Dysphoria =/= Gender Incongruence ----- A non-dysphoric trans enby.

My gender studies teacher is… A grown ass tucute….?

Can someone please send help. PLEASE.

I was a little blunt but - cmon….

You, broke: “Obviously my teacher is a biased tucute, I didn’t do anything wrong!”

Me, woke: “You’re teacher is very obviously grading based on their academic knowledge and you’re just wrong.”

[terflies]

It’s almost as if the prevailing psychological, medical, academic consensus is “tucute”.

This is literally the most dismissive, self righteous thing I’ve ever seen a student try to tell a teacher.

[antitransmedicalism]

OP stop calling everyone that agrees with the medical consensus “tucutes”. It doesn’t do anything good, and it doesn’t prove that you, or any other transmed, are willing to have any good debate/discussion without resorting to insults.

[pepsipigeon]

transmed: i only support SCIENCE and KNOWLEDGE

professor that has been through years of schooling and study: *gives facts*

transmed: i cannot FU CKIGN believw my teacher is a tucute…..im shooketh…… theure obviously WRONG and IM right

[lolbiit]

I can’t say how many times transmeds have said “WAIT TILL YOU GET TO THE REAL WORLD AND THE ACTUAL SCIENTIFIC TRANS COMMUNITY!!!” And then…. this is literally what the “real world medical community” fucking teaches and believes like

Welcome to the real world, we been trying to tell y’all that “tucutes” have been right this whole time.

I told someone about it and they asked to see it and I couldn’t find it.

[nondysphoric-enby]

This has to be brought back around because this girl ALSO got to college, started being transphobic in a women & gender studies class, then argued with the teacher before running and crying “discrimination!!!1!” to her followers who are, unsurprisingly, also racist.

transmeds never can understand the invisibility of black trans people. ever in their life.

[clonepa2]

when you are black and trans, no one believes you, no matter your identity or type of transition, the white trans community seems to think that black people being trans isnt real.

[clonepa2]

a transmeds view on what is means to be a man or a woman is 100% white. down to the personality, clothes, and culture. for them what is "cis passing" is all based on a white cis man or woman. it is one of many reasons why their mentality is harmful, it serves white supremacy.

[nondysphoric-enby]

"Black transmeds exist!!" And? So do black people who think that other black people are "asking for too much" when we discuss our basic rights. So do black people who think that darker skinned people are inferior. So do black people who actively engage in other white supremacist behaviors. What's your point? There are members of a marginalized racial community that have internalized racism? Shocking. /S

Using them as the Token Black Transmeds (tm) doesn't change the fact that the standards transmeds have only serve white supremacy (especially considering the white doctors who set these standards years ago)

[sadhoc]

if you’re a mentally ill adult, especially if you’re psychotic or have bipolar, i highly recommend you look into getting a psychiatric advance directive. basically they’re a form you can fill out where you can specify what kind of treatment you want and don’t want in the case that you ever get legally declared incompetent. normally, getting declared incompetent means that psychiatrists take away your right to make decisions about your mental health care. for example, they can force you to take medications you don’t want or institutionalize you longterm without your consent. also the state appoints someone they choose to legally “consent” in your place.

what a psychiatric advance directive does is put limits on what the psychiatrists assigned to you can do. you can appoint your own person to be your legal representative, someone you trust who knows you and cares about you. you can also specify what hospitals you don’t want to be sent to or what doctors you don’t want to see or medications you don’t want to take or whether or not you consent to electroconvulsive treatment. you can also say what you do want, like i put down that they decided to institutionalize me, i wanted it to be at a specific psych ward i’d already been to and had a not terrible time at. and now, if i ever get declared incompetent, psychiatrists are legally not allowed to put me back on the meds that gave me a seizure. 

nobody wants to be legally declared incompetent. it’s really scary to think about, but it does happen, especially to people with psychosis or bipolar disorder. it’s better to have legal safeguards in place ahead of time and not need them than to get declared incompetent and not have an advance directive

[stantler]

Many lgbt teenagers and young adults growing up on the internet today have socially conservative beliefs that they voice at all times that they got from their conservative parents which they’ve never challenged because they think the life experience of being gay or trans makes them politically progressive

[stantler]

This is why I hate it when people say something homophobic and then go “so you’re really accusing me, a whole ass lesbian, of being homophobic 🙄” like yeah

[official-transsexual]

"Super Straight" is pure, unadulterated fascist propaganda being promoted by 4chan for the purpose of radicalizing people.

The tactic they're using involves taking their intended idea ("trans people are actually their AGAB"), abstracting it slightly ("trans ppl are actually their AGAB" -> "straight people who date trans ppl are less straight than the ones who don't" -> "straight people who don't date trans people are Super Straight"), and then presenting that transphobic core idea embedded into a reasonable and uncontroversial one ("anyone can refuse to date another person for any reason"). From there, it is a simple matter for bad-faith actors to twist criticism of the transphobic core into criticism of the reasonable concept they've coated it in.

This folder has some uncensored (tw for basically all the slurs & lots of nazi shit) screenshots from one of the 4chan threads they made to plan this, including a couple of comments openly discussing their intent to use it to radicalize people into fascism: https://preview.tinyurl.com/SuperStraightOriginReceipts

The discussion of whether it's transphobic not to date trans people is completely irrelevant. Attraction is complicated, transphobia exists in degrees, and frankly, most of is are a lot less concerned about whether a cis individual would date us than, say, whether that means they'd be biased against hiring a trans person, or less inclined to show compassion towards us, or sympathetic to someone pulling out the Trans Panic Defense if they were sitting on a jury.

I reblogged this last month, tagged it, and said “might as well see if it works.” I used this video as a reference to find all the forms that i needed (which is A LOT, especially if you’re a dependent) and sent them through the mail, not really allowing myself to hope.

dude.

$2,714 of medical debt from my top surgery - gone. im shaking this was such a weight on me for 2 years and it fucking worked. what the fuck.

people who are so DEEPLY against the use of the word enby are so weird. like i completely understand not wanting people to call YOU that but WHAT is wrong with other people calling themselves that. its literally none of yor business.

[trenderish]

LIKE HONESTLY.

plus, even if it IS infantilizing, literally what does it matter if youre not the one using it

[yamchass]

it is literally just the pronounciation of the letters n and b together omfg why does everyone have to shit on nonbinary ppl for every single harmless thing we come up for ourselves 😭

[professorabacus]

[ID: tumblr tags reading: this this this people say it’s infantilizing? literally how like what about it is infantilizing it doesnt HAVE any childish connotations bc its such a new word all it has is the basic meaning of ‘nonbinary version of man/woman/boy/girl’ and honsetly very few cis ppl even know about that trans nonbinary /End ID

[trenderish]

okay ive seen some tags talking about how “everytime nonbinary people come up with terms for ourselves cis people call it infantalizing” and like yeah, cis people do that all the time, but this post was specifically about toother nonbinary people policing the use of it

[trenderish]

its not infantilizing. period. stop adding onto this post now

i know i said no more additions but ^

I was confused about this until I saw a video on TikTok by a nonbinary person which was basically, "I'm not like you other "enbies" who like frogs and possums, I don't reduce myself down to a stereotype! Being a stereotype isn't good. *implies that all nonbinary people who use "enby" are just AFAB (which was used to imply "women") trying to be quirky*" and now I get this.

[nondysphoric-enby]

(R-pe mention, aphobia)

Seeing all the aphobia and exclusionists whining on @space-trender page reminds me of all the things exclusionists have done.

30+ year old queer people talking about the history of the community and how ace and aro people have always played a role, just under different labels? Not even really "arguing", just saying they're wrong? They begin to complain about how "adults can't talk to minors like this!", accuse the adult queer people of being groomers, mass report them to get them kicked off of the site.

Studies showing the oppression asexual people face and how they also face corrective r-pe are brought up? Exclusionists scream "racism" because "corrective r-pe is a lesbian only term made by south african lesbians!"

Actual south african lesbians begin saying that it ISN'T a lesbian only term and that many in the lgbtq+ community face it? They ignore them because they never actually cared about racism.

Black trans people, the group that made the term "Cishet" to describe our COLLECTIVE oppressors, tell them to stop using the term "cishet" incorrectly because it doesn't apply to ace or aro people? They tell us to shut up because, again, they don't care about racism or defending people of color (in this case, black people).

It's pointed out that they are literally just reusing anti-gay talking points, like accusing us of "going around telling people about our sex lives", or "shoving our sex lives in people's faces because we told them our orientation".)? "Actually, you're homophobic because this isn't the same! How dare you compare US, the ~real~ LGBT/Queers, to those (slurs)/cishets!"

Also the whole doxxing people, outing people to their caregivers, sending graphic porn to ace minors, talking and laughing about their lies within their circles, etc. Etc.

They're the major reason I still doubt people's intellectual honesty and their intellectual laziness going into these "debates". We had a massive masterpost absolutely loaded with documents proving the history and oppression, plus many of us were willing to post the breakdowns of the sources, but they decided that they weren't going to even try and to this day they insist that their side is the one science and history agrees with.

Identical to truscum and "transmedicalists" ("medicalists" is a misnomer considering every major physical health, trans advocacy, and mental health organization and more explicitly disagree with them, hence why the quotations).

from an epileptic who did this test they talk about: DO NOT CLOSE YOUR EYES. IF YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES, YOU WILL HAVE THE SAME SEIZURE OR EVEN A STRONGER ONE.

when doctors are testing you, they put the headset on and they ask you to close your eyes to see seizure activity. this is bc closing your eyes makes it worse or does nothing, depending on the person. PUT YOUR HANDS ON YOUR EYES AND LOOK AWAY. CLOSING YOUR EYES WONT DO SHIT.

Please I am begging you, DO NOT BUY CYBERPUNK 2077 and DO NOT SUPPORT CD Project Red. It's not worth risking your money, health, or time on. If you must play it wait a few months for this stupid shit to inevitably be fixed by the modding community that's sure to sping up around this game and then PIRATE the game. Piracy is not difficult and this is a situation where you are morally obligated to pirate the game if you must play it. CDPR treats it's employees like horse shit, treat their fans like horse shit, and actively pander to na*is and alt-R*ght fuckasses. I repeat, if you must play this game *STEAL IT*

What’s gnc???

Gender Non-Conforming. I've seen older generations use this to also be another way of saying "trans", but we now typically use it in reference to not performing gender the way society expects us to. Not conforming to gender roles/expectations.

There are women who use he/him or they/them, men who wear traditionally feminine clothes, people who aren't women wearing makeup, people (kinda like me) who try their hardest to not pass as cis, women who take on traditionally masculine roles, etc.

To anyone pissed at Nevada right now,

I get it. And the memes are hilarious. However, as a native Nevadan, I also think y'all deserve an explanation. Trump is currently suing Clark County, the most populous county in Nevada, for voter fraud. So every single disputed ballot is being reviewed by a judge, and a lot of the actual counting has slowed down for diligence sake so his suit has very little to go off of. That's why it's taking so long. Keep making the memes, they're hilarious, but the actual villain here is still the shitstain in the White House.

[nicoleartist]

oh so THATS why

[justsomeantifas]

[full article]

An Ohio public school has been giving students extra credit for watching videos from PragerU, a right-wing website that produces clips of talking heads such as Candace Owens and Ben Shapiro discussing conservative viewpoints, HuffPost has learned.

The PragerU videos — with titles such as “Build the Wall,” “Why the Right Was Right” and “The Left Ruins Everything” — were assigned to a 10th-grade history class at Maumee High School, along with a series of questions about the videos’ “most important messages.”

The assignment came at the same time that the website has tried to gain further influence in K-12 classrooms. Earlier this month, the organization launched a program directly aimed at parents and educators, complete with study guides with sections such as “Conservatives Are the Real Environmentalists” and “The Ferguson Lie,” based on a HuffPost review of the materials.

…

The homework assignment appeared unrelated to PragerU’s latest venture, called PragerU Educators and Parents, or PREP, which launched several weeks ago. The inception of such a program suggested that these types of assignments may become more prevalent in schools. 

Already, “2,000 parents and educators have already signed up for PREP,” Craig Strazzeri, chief marketing officer of PragerU, said in an email to HuffPost.

“We constantly hear from educators and teachers who use our videos in the classroom,” Strazzeri said. He declined to disclose how many public school teachers specifically joined the new program. “Ideally, every school in America would show PragerU videos in the classroom on a regular basis to help educate the next generation.

”PragerU started the PREP program in response to COVID-19-related school shutdowns, which “forced us to take a closer look at what is being taught and not taught across the country,” said Adrienne Johnson, PragerU’s chief of staff and lead of the PREP platform, in a video interview with conservative news channel One America News Network. “America is not being fairly portrayed.

If your teacher seriously assigns you a PragerU video please dunk of their ass so hard 

[call-me-bitchmael]

Hi, social studies teacher here: if your teacher assigns you one of these videos in any context except for the following, drag them to hell. Call your principal, sure, but also. Ruin them on twitter. Make it a big public stink the whole district has to scramble to hush up. Complain to your local news if you have to. Complain to the ACLU– they have a whooooole department on education. Make that teacher a liability to the school. See how fast their shit changes.

Now, exceptions include:

- you are studying propaganda and these videos are an example of such

- you are studying conservatism (alone or as compared to other ideology) and the videos are a case study in alt right thought

- you’re studying things like media literacy and critical media consumption and this is one of the examples you have to deconstruct

- you’re making comparisons between the message of the videos and other messages in history and whether they’re coming from the same root

- basically ask “am I being given this video to inform me or have I been given this video to analyze?” and if the answer is inform, as in your teacher is using this shit as part of introducing new info, FUCK that. Drag them to hell. This shit cannot be used as direct instruction. But if the answer is “critically analyze the video” or “the video is an example of something really happening that we are learning about” then that’s actually very useful to you to learn because it will help you identify this thinking when you see it and understand how conservatives you’re up against are coming to their conclusions.

Basically, videos like this are only good for studying the alt right like the wacked out, neurotic, inbred lab rats that they are at heart. Teachers trying to use them as factual direct instruction need to get as fucked as possible as soon as possible.

[advanced-procrastination]

Don’t forget, public school teachers are *~*strictly prohibited*~* from anything that might be deemed political indoctrination. If your teacher tries to use PragerU as a legitimate, credible source that you should parrot all your opinions from, DRAG. THEM. AND. THE. DISTRICT. THROUGH. THE. MUD.

American Airlines Policy Effectively Bans Power Wheelchair Users From Flying to 130 U.S. Airports - Wheelchair Travel

American Airlines has established a new policy which prevents many disabled people from traveling with power wheelchairs on regional jets.

[theunholystromboli]

You should read this article, but in case you don’t read the article, the reason they suddenly won’t transport power wheelchairs is because THEY WERE BREAKING TOO MANY OF THEM. They CONSTANTLY break wheelchairs and their response is to BAN DISABLED PEOPLE FROM TRAVELING RATHER THAN TEACH THEIR EMPLOYEES HOW TO SAFELY HANDLE WHEELCHAIRS
