Intro post

[discount-supervillain]

[weirdly-specific-but-ok]

yes, India made legal gender change impossible but the doctor down the street who gives me my T shots in a clinic so small that it's just two rooms was excited for me when she said my voice had dropped yes, India made legal gender change impossible but the receptionist who could see that I was a man didn't bat an eyelash when I asked to see the gynecologist and called me sir when he asked how I wanted to pay yes, India made legal gender change impossible but the barber cuts my hair exactly how I want it and never gave me strange looks for being in a men's salon not even back when I didn't pass as one

yes, India made legal gender change impossible but my friends have always gendered me correctly and stick to it even when it confuses other people and my friend's little sibling calls me older brother in Kannada yes, India made legal gender change impossible but my dog learned my new name quicker than the humans and she runs to give me a kiss when she's told to without being confused about who's being referred to

yes, India made legal gender change impossible but I can feel the Adam's apple growing in my throat and my muscles getting stronger, and my smile more real and I'm growing a beard, and I talk more freely

yes, India made legal gender change impossible but I'm here, and I'm alive, and so are you and there are good people, people who care and don't let them make you forget that-- you are not alone.

An angel dies every time you say ‘neurodivergent’ but are only referring to autism/ADHD.

[nungusposts]

Honestly I'm starting to realize that my issue with TADC is less of the show itself but rather the fandom acting like it's some modern masterpiece by the ranks of Shakespeare and Homer and you need an IQ of over 300 to understand it when in my humble opinion it's a very OK 6/10 show.Not all fans are like this but there are enough fans that will tell you to kill yourself for having the slightest issues with show for me to start having a problem with it.

[gayvampyr]

if you want to dress gay but aren’t sure how, you need to focus more on finding clothes you actually like and that make you feel good when you look in the mirror. develop your style independently of what you think looks gayest and trust the homosexuality will follow. it goes where confidence and self acceptance are

[mawofthemagnetar]

The problem with being low support needs is that people mentally autocorrect that to “no support needs” and then proceed to give you absolutely nothing and then get surprised when you implode after six months.

[cuppydogshane]

all the rights that come with marriage you should be able to have without marriage btw. you should be able to designate a person who can visit you in the hospital regardless of your relationship to that person.

[luxiomahariel]

anyway. amab does not mean that someone has or has ever had a penis and testes.

afab does not mean that someone has or has ever had a vulva and a uterus.

stop using an event that happened at birth where doctors put a letter on a birth certificate as indicative of someones genitalia.

[luxiomahariel]

THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PERISEX PEOPLE

DOCTORS FUCK UP ALL THE TIME

A COMPLETELY CIS AND PERISEX MAN COULD HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED FEMALE AT BIRTH DUE TO A DOCTORS FUCK UP

A COMPLETELY CIS AND PERISEX WOMAN COULD HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED MALE AT BIRTH DUE TO A DOCTORS FUCK UP

STOP TREATING GENDER ASSIGNMENT AS REPRESENTATIVE OF GENITALIA

[crippy-tangerine]

"erm actually this thing you said you experienced, where doctors treated you wrong, is illegal!!" Do you understand that medical malpractice is a real thing and not just a plot device from House MD. You get that, right. Right??

[alagaisia]

Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?

[alagaisia]

It was a huge milestone of scientific and technological advancement. (Plus, at the time, politically significant). Humanity went to space! We set foot on a celestial body that was not earth for the first time in human history! That’s a big deal! I’ve never thought about it before but now that I have, it’s ridiculous to me that that’s not part of our everyday lives and the public consciousness anymore. Why don’t we have a public holiday and a family barbecue about it. Why have I never seen the original broadcast of the moon landing? It should be all over the news every year!

[alagaisia]

It’s July 20th. That’s the day of the moon landing. Next year is going to be the 54th anniversary. I’m ordering astronaut shaped cookie cutters on Etsy and I’m going to have a goddamn potluck. You’re all invited.

[watermelon-converse]

Hey. Hey. Tumblr. Ides of March ppl. We can do this

[emi--rose]

Hell yeah moon holiday

[hello-delicious-tea]

Ooh coming up we should celebrate

[ariaste]

PITCH: We call it Moon Day, and then every 7 years when it falls on a Monday, that's an even BIGGER deal and we call that Moon Day Monday and go absolutely apeshit about it (the next Moon Day Monday is in 2026 so we have a couple trial runs first)

[sarostheghostcat]

MOON DAY MOON DAY MOON DAY

[wafflebloggies]

moon day is 20th July!!!

[silly-jellyghoty]

Scheduling this a day earlier to remind you all and myself about the Moon Day tomorow!

[sashaforthewin]

Happy moon day to all who celebrate

[kitsuneofthemist]

This is your reminder to prep for Moon Day on July 20th.

[inkyrainstorms]

MOON DAY MONDAY THIS MONTH NOT A DRILL!!!!!

[steveevening]

OH IT IS MOON DAY MONDAY WOO

[scramratz]

It sucks there seems to be a concerted effort to distance the transfem and transmasc communities from each other. If it weren’t for trans women, I probably wouldn’t have realized I was trans until much later in life.

The cis women in my life were so miserable in their womanhood, I thought that misery was normal. Seeing trans women actually love and fight to be seen as women made me question my own misery

[steveevening]

Some vent art pieces about my chronic pain in my legs, which has worsened in the past few weeks.

[crippleculture]

scrolling through disability stickers on Etsy and a LOT of them are themed around invisible disabilities which is gr8 but im specifically looking for stickers to put on my wheelchair on a spoke guard and like... the idea of having stickers that are like "not all disabilities are visible" on a literal wheelchair is very funny to me

[boycreaturefeature]

”transandrophobia/anti-transmasculinity isn’t real” When i was younger one legitimate thing o had against transitioning (in the future) was that instead of being a women scientist, instead of being progressive and boundary breaking, i would just be a man. What would all the little girls think if i abandoned them, left the harshness of female hood to become a man instead, become not the idol they looked up too?

[ted-undead]

literally used to get so upset that i would not be a “woman in STEM” and would be taking spots away from women who could be in STEM instead of a man like me. that once my gender changed i was the statistic we were trying to push against. who needs more men like me in STEM?

[boycreaturefeature]

Not to talk over you but use this as a way to get the conversation outta the tags — it’s younger trans men who needs men like you in stem. When you transition, the world doesn’t just lose a women in stem it also gains a trans man/masc.

@echoiiing said it very well.

So, for everybody that feels that strange shame and pressure of needed to be the Women Scientist, the Women Role Model in the room — you’ll instead be a Trans Masc scientist, a Trans Man Role Model.

[this-is-trans-joy]

Not to mention the fact that the world is always gaining new women every day in the form of trans women. They get to be the Women Scientists and the Women Role Models for women and girls to look up to. It’s not our job to fulfil that role when trans women are doing it so much better than we ever could.

Whenever the world gains a new trans person, future generations of trans people gain an extra bit of hope that they wouldn’t have otherwise had, so never ever feel guilty about transitioning. The world needs you exactly as you are!

[steveevening]

[id: a screenshot from a tumblr comment by the user @/echoiiing. It reads "I was worried about this for a while, until I realized I wouldn't be "just another man in STEM". I'd be a trans man in STEM. If I ever make it anywhere, I could be someone for young trans boys to look up to, because they have even less role models than young girls. end ID]

Some of the repetitive questions here made me think "Do y'all need a visual guide?" So I did it.

If I did any mistakes in interpreting your many answers, please say! I will edit anything I need to for it to be actually respectful & accurate.

OH MY GOD THANK YOU THATS PERFECT

Do you mind if I add it to the FAQ (with credit of course <3)
