πͺΌ : do you want to be an activist for radqueer or are you all ready one? how do you spread awareness for radqueers?
π : in your opinion, the biggest problem in the community is?
πͺΌI would like to be an activist for radqueer but i'm not really sure how at this point !! I often try to explain rq to people around me in a way that's digestible to them, since i know what converted me as a former anti and it tends to work !!
πI think the biggest problem is fighting !! Infighting, outside-fighting- we're supposed to be the accepting community and i think we shouldn't be agressive to people we disagree with because that's no way to get someone to agree with you !!
Transage tips pt one: basics and 0-11 years of age
This includes specific age groups from baby to 11 and also general transage tips
The specific age groups will be based in the present. If you want specific time-age (for example a teen in the 2000s) tips, please send an ask :]
It's below the cut :]
General transage tips
Research the following for your age group:
fashion trends
media tastes
slang & communication style
routines
priorities
aesthetics
Also consider which era of time you want your transage to be from. Do you want to be a teen in the 2000s? A grown man in the 1800s? The choices are endless, so figure this out first.
Adjust your aesthetic. This could be:
Clothing (looser or tailored, playful or minimal)
Accessories (backpacks, purses, tech, jewelry)
Hairstyles and makeup intensity
Color palettes (bright/pastel or muted/neutral)
Consume media associated with that age:
TV shows, cartoons, YouTubers, or movies
Music playlists from that era
Games, apps, or hobbies common at that age
Different ages tend to have different routines...
Sleep/wake habits
Free time structure
Responsibilities or play
Socialization style
Example:
Younger -> more play, comfort items, structure
Older β more independence, planning, solitude
Adjust slang usage, emojis, or tone
Notice formality levels
Observe how people of that age express excitement, stress, or humor
Sounds good? Okay, let's move on to specific age ranges.
