I'm so glad I get to share a world with indigenous trans men & mascs! The world is so much better because indigenous trans men & mascs are in it!
If you're an indigenous trans man, an indigenous transmasc, or just a queer indigenous person in general: I am so proud and happy to share a community with you.
You have always been a core and incredibly important part of the queer community. You matter so so so much, don't let anyone convince you otherwise!

i dont think whites understand how being white makes literally everything easier.
it effects everything.
being trans is easier when youre white.
being gay is easier when youre white.
being disabled is easier when youre white.
being a woman is easier when youre white.
being autistic is easier when youre white.
oppression is eased when you are white, as you get extra privileges, and your whiteness is seen as a positive characteristic that in some ways counter-balances your other forms of being a minority. whiteness controls everything.
you are automatically way more innocent in your own oppression as a gay, trans, disabled person because of your whiteness.
So I've been thinking about @macdenlover 's "levels of headcanon" chart (about how heavily a HC is influenced by canon), so I decided to make my own scale about how likely a HC is to be true (including different levels of canon) using queer cartoon characters as examples :)
I just spent an hour making this because I was bored. Enjoy. Image description under the cut.
Inspiration:
it came to my realization that 99% of my fandom related headaches would be cured if everyone understood this
ID courtesy of @hatreds-og-imagedescriptions (thank you!!)
[ID: a chart going from 10 to 1, with explanations of the ratings on the left and images of characters with queer flags and descriptions of said characters on the right.
10: "Explicit canon. Clearly stated in the original media." Trans Barney from Dead end Paranormal Park. "Barney says "I'm transgender"".
9: "Implicit canon. Never explicitly stated, but 100% canon in the original media". Nonbinary Raine from The Owl House. "Raine never says "I'm nonbinary," but uses they/them and is never referred to as a man/woman (also, confirmed by Dana)".
8: "Creator confirmation. Never stated in the original media, but confirmed canon by the media's creator". Aroace Lilith from The Owl House. "While never mentioned/implied in TOH, Dana has confirmed that Lilith is aroace".
7: "Heavily implied. Never confirmed, but likely true (either by canon evidence or creator implication)". Genderfluid Nimona from Nimona. ""Aaand now you're a boy" "I am today" (anyway, the whole movie has trans/GNC themes)".
6: "Possibly implied. Hinted at in the original media, but could be explained as something else". Trans Doofenschmirtz from Phineas and Ferb. "Doof COULD be transmasc, or the whole "raised as a girl" thing could just be for the bit".
5: "Fanon. Never confirmed, but generally accepted by the fandom". Aromantic Alastor from Hazbin Hotel. "While only confirmed to be ace, most of the fandom also sees Alastor as aromantic".
4: "HC with evidence. Headcanons supported by a dedicated fan's detective work". Bisexual Mabel from Gravity Falls. "People have noticed bi flag stickers hidden on Mabel's scrapbooks".
3: "Canon neutrality. Could be true, could be false, but overall makes sense and doesn't contradict the original media". Genderqueer Pleakley from Lilo and Stitch. "Maybe Pleakley is genderqueer, maybe he just wanted to crossdress for the mission, who knows? That's why it's a headcanon."
2: "I made it the fuck up. Based on vibes, has absolutely nothing to do with canon". Bisexual Megamind from Megamind. "No evidence, no explanation, he just has Disaster Bi™ vibes".
1: "Um? No? But go off. Directly contradicts canon (but who cares, that's why it's fun)". Trans Stanley Pines from Gravity Falls. "Even though flashback scenes prove Stan is AMAB, some people HC him as transmasc." End of ID.]
I am a trans man. I am also a mother. These two things do not contradict in my mind. I wasn't a seahorse dad, I gave birth while still identifying as/believing I was a woman and raised my child to call me "mom." This is part of my identity just as much as being a trans man is.
I've been kicked out of every mom group and every mom forum. I'm taking motherhood away from women. I'm invading safe spaces for mothers. I'm a gross man preying on single moms and their children. I'm not allowed at Muffins with Mom because I'm a man. I'm not allowed at Donuts with Dad because I'm a mom.
Fine then. I'll just take my kid out for ice-cream.
had to block an anon for insisting that I should “transition young” because “transitioning late makes you ugly”. that’s not true. please don’t send me anything along those lines.
I’m really sorry that people feel this way about themselves, it makes my heart hurt for you, but projecting these insecurities on a stranger is really not the kind thing to do. you’re not “protecting me” from “being ugly”, you’re unfortunately just sending me hurtful sentiments.
trans people of all walks have beauty. I’m not just saying that. some of the most beautiful trans people I’ve seen have been elderly people who only just found out that they’re trans. don’t project your insecurities onto me, please.
heres my real woke take: kids should absolutely be raised gender neutral. im so serious. like they/them pronouns and everything until they decide what they wanna be called. and its not even because of the fact that its a lot easier for trans and queer kids to discover what they like and feel comfortable with on account of not being forced into a gender (which does come with gender roles even if you dont intend for it to. you're not the only one raising your kid!), like thats a part of it but most of it for me is that when you gender a kid youre basically just telling people what external genitalia the kid has and how to be misogynistic and weird to them and thats just some weird shit to me. it also weeds out the little freaks who REALLY want to know what genitals your fucking baby has for some reason
