you know, i dont think that most cis people realize that being a trans boy isn’t “I’m a girl who wants to be a boy”

it’s “I’m a boy who everyone insists is actually a girl”

and the same goes for trans girls too, although I’m not one so I worry about talking over them. but like with trans boys, it’s not “I’m a boy who wants to be a girl,” it’s “I’m a girl who everyone insists is a boy”

it’s not that trans people “want” to be genders that they aren’t, it’s that they ARE a certain gender but most people won’t accept them as such. what we want is to be seen and accepted as the gender that we really are

how to deal with your kid being trans

1. buy them new clothes and other accessories to make them feel more comfortable 2. slam dunk the old clothes into the nearest donation center where they belong 3. respect your child’s identity and use whatever name and pronouns they want you to use

I’ve been trying not to be on tumblr as much lately. It eats my time like mad and I need it for Uni, so I’m sorry for the silence.

Me: *writing in English*

German Side of My Brain: Put more commas.

Me: Why?

German Side of My Brain: You gotta.

PASS THIS ON.

The first transgender suicide hotline is now up and running in the U.S. You can reach Trans Lifeline at 877-565-8860.

I’m glad it’s not as much of a daily problem as it used to be. I’m only very rarely missgendered, and seeing how I’m meeting less and less new people the longer I’m here, the less it happens, too. But it’s still an important part of who I am, so I still have the urge to talk about it, so I want to give it positive attention.

I feel like before I wanted to ignore it so, so badly, because it only ever got negative attention, but now it’s the other way round.

[transingermany]

I wish I knew whether there were more trans people at my school. I really wish there was a place to talk and help each other here, I can’t be the only one among *thousands* of students.

[transingermany]

All I need now to get top surgery is literally just to contact a surgeon... but I’m kind of hesitant for two reasons

1) How am I going to schedule this alongside Uni? I don’t want to miss too much. I don’t know exactly when we have vacation days.

2) I’m absolutely paranoid. I’m very afraid of not waking up again. I had the same fear when I merely got my wisdom teeth taken out. 

I do want to do it, I have bad dysphoria about my chest whenever I don’t bind/hide it, but binding has become so stressful and unpleasant, and I’m not even cursed with a big chest.

I want it to be done, and I just don’t want to go through the process of doing it, pretty much.

And I always want to go swimming with friends so, so badly. We have a swimming hall nearby that even gives students discounts... fml.

Reblog if you think gay trans boys are valid

[transingermany]

Not going to lie, it really annoys me when people just straight up assume I’m heterosexual, especially in such a context like the following;

In one of my classes I always sit next to one girl because we’ve become pretty good friends, and it’s just become a thing that THERE we’ll seriously always sit together. One day she was running late, so I was keeping a seat next to me free for her. Some other friends of mine were sitting to my right, and two girls I know came up and wanted to join group.

When I told them to please keep the seat next to me free, one of the girls got all defensive, and asked me if I wanted something from that girl (Asking “Do you want something from X” in German directly implies something romantic/sexual)

And... man. It’s both assuming heterosexual is the norm, and people of opposite genders can’t be friends? Really miffed me.

The girl who said that did some more annoying shit over the course of some days, damn. That’s one person I’ll be staying away from.

That post though

Self diagnosers are literally the reason why no one takes triggers seriously anymore. Hell, even I don’t, and I fucking have ptsd (which, if I might add, just now flared up for the first time in a while, which makes me incredibly furious with myself). You don’t get post-traumatic stress disorder from the internet, or seeing a dog get kicked, or breaking your pinky toe. You get it from real life trauma, such as getting shot, or raped, or, in my case, waking up on the wrong side of the operating table as I like to put it.

It’s not fun.

Try having flashbacks in the middle of Target, or nightmares, or, ooh, the most fun - mother fucking hallucinations. Try feeling yourself slowly spiral into this mess of confusion and fear and self-hatred all because you don’t know why your brain is being so horrible to you, and try reaching out to someone only for them to tell you you’re just being an attention seeker.

Try having that person be your own mother.

And, later, a psychiatrist.

And do you know why they get that idea?

People like you.

People who scream about being triggered by grass and blankets and dog food.

People who fake panic attacks to avoid responsibility.

People who have created such hysteria surrounding the disorder that no one takes it seriously.

So shut the fuck up about how “self-dx isn’t ableist” and “self-dx doesn’t hurt anyone” because you are wrong. You are so wrong.

Time to bring this back because nothing disgusts me more than retards on here faking mental illness for attention.

THIS. THIS. THIS.

For any lesbian, gay, bi, transgender folks alone for the holidays...

http://www.yourholidaymom.com/ is a blog run by a bunch of moms (and sometimes other parents) who will post a letter to you daily until Christmas with words of acceptance and welcome.  It was designed specifically as a project for kids and adults who face rejection over the holidays because of their sexuality or gender.  This meant a lot to me the first year that I was isolated by my family, and I wanted to share it with all of you.

[transphysics]

Hi, all!  It’s drawing close to the holiday season again, so I wanted to bring this around again!  <3

There is no conclusive evidence that sex change operations improve the lives of transsexuals, with many people remaining severely distressed and even suicidal after the operation, according to a medical review conducted exclusively for Guardian Weekend tomorrow.

There is no conclusive evidence that sex change operations improve the lives of transsexuals, with many people remaining severely distressed and even suicidal after the operation, according to a medical review conducted exclusively for Guardian Weekend tomorrow.

The review of more than 100 international medical studies of post-operative transsexuals by the University of Birmingham’s aggressive research intelligence facility (Arif) found no robust scientific evidence that gender reassignment surgery is clinically effective.

Since the only way to bookmark this garbage post is by liking it, I’m going to instead reblog it while I compile very well-researched links to wreck your shit with. I will be back soon. You should probably spend this time scheduling an appointment to fix your soon destroyed asshole. It also wouldn’t hurt to read up on empirical data and being able to tell legit sources from pseudoscience in the mean time.

[aa-aaaa-aaaaa--aaaaaaaaa]

So. Ugh. Really?? Even though you’re a terf, and therefore a complete barnacle by nature, I didn’t think you’d stoop low enough to support the ideas of Dr. Paul McHume, a widely criticized religious zealot who insists that the Bible is a valid scientific resource. The study referenced in your source has been debunked multiple times for being incredibly biased and unfounded. (This video is a very good deconstruction of the study, btw. It touches on the methods used by the research used and how they basically set the entire thing up to be rigged)

Despite what an overly religious zealot has to say, countless other sources say that transgender people’s lives improve after transitioning. Transition regret is indeed a real thing, but it is also highly exaggerated. People don’t feel transition regret because transition isn’t a way to deal with gender dysphoria. People feel regret because they weren’t transgender in the first place. Gender dysphoria is caused by your brain’s map of your body and your physical body having a misalignment. Transitioning while not being actually dysphoric will end up causing gender dysphoria, due to the fact your body will begin to change in ways that it doesn’t have registered in the homunculus cortex. That is no different than someone having adverse reactions to taking ritalin when they don’t have ADHD. Using people’s bad experiences with medical procedures they didn’t need to discredit a procedure that saves the lives of people who need it is absurd.

As I stated before, there are a fuckload of sources saying that transition has improved the functionality of transgender people. Really, that should be enough to get people like you to fuck off. Transitioning comes with no more medical complications than your average medical procedure. It’s not some kind of scary procedure that will destroy your whole body and your life, as idiots like you so blindly suggest that they do. Take your pseudoscience and fuck off. Really.
