Actually no one should be having sex. All of us are aged-up minors and the passage of time is inherently problematic
The worst part about this is that some people genuinely have this take:
Oh god this being on my dash is like seeing my own corpse dragged through the town square
happy pride month everyone!!
As a non Jewish queer person, I find the obsession some queer people have with making the Holocaust, of all things, all about us so, so disgusting and disrespectful, and certainly the way some people can only find it in themselves to give a shit about a teenage girl murdered for being Jewish is because she might have been queer.
It’s not about us. It’s not about us. It’s not about us.
Seeing queers get angry because the Jews “get” to have the Holocaust, as if the generational trauma of 6 million genocided human beings and the overwhelming loss of memory and culture is somehow a privilege.
Yes, queer people have historically, and continue to face extreme oppression and violence around the world. Yes, we should talk about and commemorate our dead and fight for our living.
Sidelining and erasing Jews and antisemitism from the fucking Holocaust is not the way to do it. That is not our trauma. Just stop it.

All I ever wanted was a squirrel.
I have such weird trans experiences and every time I express them people get mad. I feel so fucking alone.
my autistic shutdowns feel disturbingly similar to my seizures. whats up with that
do you think it might be worth trying to describe your experience with shutdowns so other autistic folks can confirm in case its really a seizure type or smth
(i ask because im the dumbass who was having neuropathy cause occasional issues with my muscle control and thought thats what people meant by "adhd paralysis")
idk if its similar enough to get confused tbh, i thought my seizures were just weird ass migraines before i was diagnosed. my shutdowns come on fast as a result of strong unexpected emotions i can't process and usually my muscles tense really bad for most of it and my seizures have hours of building migraine and other neurological symptoms before them and i go atonic. the similarities beyond immobility are dissociation, difficulty with visual processing, a vague numbness to physical sensation, and speech, and the recovery feels almost identical
Absence seizure perhaps?
correct. thankfully the meds i got are working so i havent had one in several weeks (since 2 dose increases ago)
B"H glad to hear it.

Also I got a ton of free expired chips from work. You fucking wish you were me.
Call me baa baa Black Sheep the way I got three bags full.
Once again yelling on my soap box about how you don’t GET to love my posts on the beauty and complexity of butch identity and queering masculinity if you don’t support trans men and transmasculine people.
Butch identity doesn’t just go hand in hand with trans manhood and transmasculinity: they are chosen family, they’re friends and comrades, lovers and beloved.
If you deny the lived experiences of trans men and transmasculine people you don’t get to pretend like you see the beauty in the complexity of butchness.
Fuck you, fuck off, you don’t get to claim you love me while you hate my closest kin.
remember to bury the dead with a phone, everyone. these days the ferry terminal at the river styx wants you to download a fucking app
How has inflation impacted the coin I pay with? Do I have to bring a $20 bill?
unfortunately divas you have to let people love you
Got this when i asked what transemasculation was.
Why the fuck are they making terms for oppression against trans masculine people in spaces that we arent in? We should get to decide on our own vocabulary. That just feels straight up rude.
The discrimination we face is actually kind of rooted in us being men. And i really wish people would stop trying to tell transmen/transmasculine people about the roots of our own oppression. We know it better than you do. And there is so much more to the oppression that we face and theres more causes than just "doing man wrong".
Trans women aren’t the frigging end-all-be-all of trans people, they are not the “most trans”, and they do not get a voice louder than every other trans person.
And they sure as fuck do not have a right to create terminology for other trans people. Transmascs have agency and brains, WE make our own terms.
It’s outright insulting to imply that the theorizing done under the terms transmisandry and transandrophobia are not transfeminist in nature, and that only this term made by a trans woman to encapsulate just a small segment of the types of conversations transmascs have been having that she’s approved of can be.
This is how the people trying to make “transemasculation” a thing discuss trans mascs’ and trans mens’ contributions to theory.
"Women having to do the work for men" then fucking don't??? Let us continue to do the work we have ALREADY been doing??????
"Further understanding around the"-- you mean saying shit that makes you feel better and isn't a real description of what is going on?
Fucking lol, such self-congratulatory bullshit.
Can people be normal about us existing as trans people for 3 fucking minutes?
Right?
Let’s not leave out the fact that the main person who initially coined antitransmasculinity is a trans man of color, the main people who initially contributed to the coining and establishment of it are trans men and trans women of color, largely Black trans men and trans women who built ATM theory with Black transfeminist politic + transmisogynoir theory in mind. This is not only rewriting history it’s whitewashing it. Sophia is a white woman who has no right to bulldoze over the theory Black and brown trans people have created.
The funny fucked up part about this is that antitransmasculinity theory has always; always; always been intersectional. It has always considered and included the perspectives and experiences of people who are not transmasculine, it has always considered and included that gender is influenced by race and ethnicity. “Transemasculation” is nothing but another attempt at creating a colorblind gender theory that only pretends to be intersectional as it consistently ignores the ways that other oppressions influence and compound antitransmasculinity. It is gross and antiblack.
Not only that, the term “transemasculation” makes it seem like the biggest concern transmasculine people are facing is not having their masculinity taken seriously, like everything would be just fine if only trans men were truly treated like men. Like? What the fuck? And how much do you wanna bet that if transmascs did start using “Transemasculation” people would start accusing them of “desiring all the privileges of the patriarchy and being mad you don’t get them”. When what transmasc ppl (and person with a gender expanse that includes trans/masculinity/manhood) really need (and what “transandrobros” have been trying to do!) is to be fucking listened to and taken seriously as PEOPLE who MATTER.
Transandrophobia, transmisandry and antitransmasculinity are all terms created to give people the space to articulate their experiences and understand them as functions of greater oppression. Period.
It is extremely sinister to position someone contributing to one of the absolute PILLARS of transmasculine oppression (deliberate erasure of terminology, culture, influence) as “doing the work for transmascs”. Shes doing work for transmascs for sure. Working to further erase them. Working to erase the contributions of Black and brown trans theorists.
It's also just SO insulting towards trans poc. It's not emasculation to be seen as a dangerous masculine predator. Something that many groups of people of colour face is hypermasculinization! Black people, regardless of gender, are understood as being more masculine, stronger, angrier, and more dangerous than white people. This masculinization is inseparable from general anti-black racism.
Black cis men, for example, are seen as being especially masculine. You can see this in how Black men are hypersexualised - the whole idea that Black men have large penises, that Black men are dangerous rapists, look at how interracial porn with Black men is characterized- it's "this big Black dick is gonna dominate you cause I'm a real man", especially with gay porn. Black men are seen as hypersexual and violent BECAUSE of the characterization of having dangerous masculinity (rather than, eg, protective masculinity).
Black women are also seen as especially masculine. Black women are degendered and seen as more masculine than white woman are. Black women are seen as angry, violent, and dangerous, and that the cause of that is the lack of appropriate femininity and the proximity of masculinity. Black women are also seen to have a dangerous promiscuous sexuality that is degendering because it's not the appropriate sexuality associated with desirable white womanhood. Black women are seen as ugly for masculine (and animalistic) traits as well - big noses (characterized as masculine in comparison to the desirable button noses of white ideals), strong jawlines, being hairy, etc are all tied to masculinity in a way that devalues Black women as women AND as people.
I am the most familiar with this with regard to anti-Blackness, but the overall phenomenon of men being hypermasculine, hypersexual, and dangerous, and women as being masculine through a lack of femininity, ugly in comparison to white beauty standards, and angry through proximity to masculinity, is a phenomenon that many racialised groups experience, especially Black people, Indigenous people, Mestizo people, South Asians, and many other groups.
So how do gender non-conforming people in these groups fair, whether they're trans, intersex, queer, or generally GNC?
Not fucking well!
We are seen as whatever is the most dangerous or worst in the moment. We are seen as simultaneously the sluts looking to lead white men astray, and the monsters following white women in the dark. We are seen as especially dangerous because our gender non-conformity marks us as people outside of the normal gendered social order. We are degenerates causing the downfall of society, monsters hurting (precious, valuable, and especially WHITE) women and children, freaks of nature abusing science to get what we want.
The idea that trans fems, trans mascs, and trans neutrals face entirely different forms of transphobia is incorrect.
And the idea that anti-transmasc sentiment is due to EMASCULATION is fucking insulting, and absolutely fucking racist.
A self admitted "biggest hater of trans men" should probably not be making theory about trans masculine experiences.
Being asexual and racist is embarassing as fuck. Being racist at all is obviously embarassing as fuck but the amount of racism and especially antiblackness i have been seeing from asexuals recently is obscene.
One of the only asexual activists is Yasmin Benoit, a Black woman. She has raised so much awareness for the community. She was the first asexual person to lead Pride in London, she started the #thisiswhatasexuallookslike movement and is THE leading voice for the community.
And you all will celebrate international asexuality day on April 6th but we wouldn't even have that if she hadn't cofounded it.
Edit: why are you all too scared to repost this. Cmon. Be vocal about being against racism
Edit 2: if you feel the need to announce in the comments that you're not reblogging for whatever reason just know that I genuinely do not care.
But also know that I will look through your account and if I notice that youre actively a racist or you just dont reblog stuff about that I will ridicule you in a reblog. Idc idc. Not reblogging is fine but if you feel the need ti announce it youre annoying asf.

I talk about Russia, China, and Turkey a lot in the most scathing of terms. But what do I think of their citizens?
I think they're people.
Much of my early childhood was spent interacting with a Russian expat community, and Russian was even my first language because of my babysitter. I've known so many great Chinese people; a scientist from Shanghai was my lab boss for four years in grad school. I work with Turkish subspecialty fellows. Everyone is a person. They're all deserving of kindness and safety, either here or at home.
EVEN IF THEY SUPPORT THEIR GOVERNMENTS.
I don't want ethnic Russians kicked out of a free Ukraine, Han Chinese out of Tibet or Taiwan, or Turkish nationals out of the Caucasus or Kurdistan. Everyone deserves a home, and "this land BELONGS TO X group, not Y group" is disgusting ethnonationalism on the level of everything leftists claim to despise. Land "belongs to" no one. Land is shared. It's a loan from the planet. Any other view is just repackaged xenophobia.
And no, I don't support what the US did in Dresden or interrogate Germans about what their grandparents did, either. I don't refuse to interact with Lithuanians despite them gunning my family down in 1941 and probably taking their homes. A human being is a human being.
The fascist section of the left could learn a little something from me.
This goes for every country. Yes, even that one.
