FREE PALRLESTINE

FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA PALESTINE WILL BE FREE 🇵🇸

Someone a while ago asked me why do I, a queer trans man, support Palestine when most Palestinians hate queer people. I'm only just now answering it because I'm hardly on Tumblr.

I support Palestine because Israel has killed at least 40,000 people, with almost half being children and women.

I support Palestine because Israel has been bombing hospitals. Which is a war crime, by the way.

I support Palestine because Muhammed Bhar, a young man with Down syndrome, was attacked by an IDF combat dog and later died due to that attack.

I support Palestine because of the flour massacre, where 112 starving civilians were killed when they tried to get humanitarian aid and humanitarian convoys.

So yeah. It might seem odd that I support Palestine as a queer trans man, but I have my reasons.

I think it's funny when transphobes say shit like "people can tell you're trans based on your bone structure" cause they're like wrong.

I'm a short, chubby trans man, and I can't remember the last time I got called miss or ma'ma. Unless random strangers are just being nice, I've been passing pretty consistently as a guy. 99.9% of people aren't studying people's bone struggles.

Most of the time, when people are trying to gender another person, they base it off their voice, the way they act, and talk and their clothes, etc. Things that are superficial.

Unless someone is like the picture definition of what a man or woman looks like (which most people don't) then you can't tell someone is trans just by bone structure

Happy Pride Month everyone! Remember 4 months ago when the CEO of this platform harassed and chased a trans woman off this website just for posting her transition timeline, then chased her to other social media platforms to continue harassing her, and threatened to call the FBI if she continued disputing the multiple dubious terminations of her blogs that did not violate tumblr's terms of service in any way? And despite tumblr staff insisting that the CEO was acting against their interests, the broad transmisogyny evident in the site's culture and moderation policy has still not been adequately addressed?

[lakemojave]

Remember that staff is continuing to nuke the blogs of trans women even after all of this. Remember this post when they call this site the queerest place on the internet again this month

Honestly, I feel bad for terfs. Their definition of womanhood is based on pain, misery, and being abused. They don't like the idea that the people who hurt them so badly (men) could become one of them. They also don't like the idea that a woman could become the enemy. It seems like Terfs and their beliefs come from pain.

As a trans guy myself, I do understand to a certain extent where they're coming from. Being raised as a woman, I was told be careful and cautious around men. Even though I pass, I'm still careful around men. However, that doesn't give them any excuse for their bigotry. They should how awful it Is to have people trying to control your body and how tiring it is to fight for bodily autonomy

[the-t-boy-king]

I think it would be helpful if we make it clear what a detransition is. Detransitioners and detransition is only now getting talked about, which is great because it is important to talk about. However, there's not really a set definition yet.

Since it's not a clear definition yet, it gives transphobes and terfs more ammunition. In some cases, people who stop medical transition are detransitioners, but it's not always the cases. Some people stop HRT because they're happy with their results and don't want to take it anymore. Some stop for medical reasons or financial reasons, yet they still identify as trans. These people get lumped together with actual detransitioners, which makes the numbers go up.

I think the definition of detransitioning should be people who stop medical transition and goes back to living as their Original gender assigned at birth. It's not perfect but it at least removes people who stop medical transition but still identify as trans.

It's so fucking ironic that JK Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter books which are supposed to be an Allegory for the holocaust, denies part of the holocaust. On the official holocaust Museum, it mentions that queer people were also a target of the holocaust. In fact, if I remember correctly, the most famous Nazi book burning photos is of Magnus Hirschfeld library book burning. The library where Hirschfeld kept his notes on treating transgender people. The pink triangle that gay men used in the 80s during the aids crisis is the same one that would mark queer people in concentration camps.

Goes to show you that being a terf rots your brain.

On February 29,2024, starving palestinians went to an aid truck to get flour and supplies. They surrounded the truck to get much needed aid and IDF soldiers opened fired on them. 118 Palestinians were killed and 760 injured. This has been called the flour massacre.

Unarmed civilians were killed by fully armed soldiers. Wait, let me rephrase that: Starving unarmed civilians were killed by fully armed soldiers.

Food and water shouldn't be used as a way to gather people only to slaughter people. It is a human right.

After being on testosterone for a little over a year now, I'm in complete awe of my body. Like my voice is nice and deep. My face has gotten a lot more masculine than I thought. My body hair is going insane. Facial is slowly but surely coming in. My hair has gotten darker somehow. My period stop which is amazing. Not to mention my T dick.

Hrt is a blessing from the gods and I'm lucky enough to have it.

Just a reminder to my trans brothers,sisters, and siblings, you don't need to defend yourself or your happiness all the time. I've been using the block button very often, and it made me happier. I know I'm a man. No matter what some transphobes say, I'm a man. Same goes for you. You're a man or a woman or non-binary no matter what a transphobe dumbass says.

Righteous Torrence 'Chevy' Hill was a 35 year old Black Trans Man who was murdered in Atlanta, Georgia last week.

He was the owner of an LGBTQ salon, meant to give Black/Queer folks a safe place to just be.

He was a father, a brother, a son, a friend.

Rest In Power and Rest peacefully Chevy

His story is not getting nearly enough attention.

“I know a story which America denies. And it denies it for the very good reason that my story, once told, confronts it with the truth about itself. In fact, my story, once told, will liberate America. The possibility of liberation—the necessity of becoming responsible for one’s own life—is what most people most profoundly fear."

I never understand why people are like "oh it's for kids so it's OK that it's poorly written" like why are you OK giving kids supar media?

Like with Harry Potter (yes, I'm going after Harry Potter again), it's a very poorly written book series. No character gets any character development and has one personality traits. The names for many of the characters are awful, and the books condone slavery with house elves. There's many more things, but if you point out any bad writing, people just write you off saying it doesn't matter because it's for kids, but it does matter!

Look at Percy Jackson! All of the characters have character development. The names aren't awful, and they don't condone slavery. In fact, the books call out the system where the Gods would ignore their kids by having Percy make the gods claim their kids. Harry Potter just went along with the system that let the bad guy rise to power.

I'm sick of people being OK with bad media just because it's for a kid.
