getting into transfem culture? i'll show you something interesting.

the two types of transfem culture are "co-opted by tmes" and "harmful to the greater trans community". all transfem culture is placed into these two categories.

blahaj? co-opted. referring to each other by familial roles? harmful to the community. the term egg? co-opted. age regression? harmful to the community.

tranny? co-opted. transfeminism? harmful to the community. despite being co-opted into forcemasc, forcefem is "harmful to the community".

[bookyred]

Hello TME. In front of you is a post in which a transfem laments the fact that she and her sisters cannot have anything, not even a cute plushie shark, which she will list alongside several other, more serious things.

You must reply without belittling said transfems pain and if you d- Oh that was quick. Bravo! Now into the acid with you.

I wonder why this person only mentioned the sharks and none of the more serious things?

Then again, it probably wouldn't sound quite as high, mighty and above it all to say:

"god I'm so sorry that someone co-opted an intra community slur whilst you were trying to reclaim it, that must be so difficult."

Or:

"god I'm so sorry people who claim to be your brothers siblings and allies frequently repress your civil rights movement, that must be so hard for you."

Huh.

I guess we know why now!

Hey all, while we're busy normalizing women with hairy legs, hairy armpits and bushy pubes, let's also normalize women with hairy upper lips, hairy chins, hairy side burns, hairy chests, and all the other places where women are supposedly magically hair-free.

Hi, it’s me, your Flix Bus driver. I heard some of you back there asking why we’re on this dirt road in the middle of a cow pasture if this is supposed to be a direct line from Berlin to Munich. To that I say: you all need to mind your own damn business and look at the fucking moo cows.

Some people in asylums in the 50s were crazy. Some of them were psychotic, screaming at things nobody else could see. Some of them were aggressive, kicking and punching and biting without provocation. Some of them were a danger to themselves. Hell, some of them were a danger to others. And they were people. They were human beings. And all human beings deserve human rights, something those people, by law, didn't have.

Some people in mental hospitals now are crazy. Some of us are psychotic. Some of us are aggressive. Some of us are a danger to ourselves. Some of us are a danger to others. And we are still humans, who deserve human rights, which we legally do not have.

Some of us, a few of the crazy people you talk about, are exactly what you say we are. Psychotic, aggressive, a danger to ourselves and others. That doesnt change the fact that we are human. That doesnt change the fact that every individual human that exists, has ever existed, and will ever exist deserves human rights. That doesnt change the fact that we don't have those human rights in every situation. "Few of us are aggressive," while true as a statement, fails to acknowledge and insist that those of us who are still deserve to be treated with the same dignity and respect as any other person.

Some of my series were about utensils, furniture, houseplants, and even lightbulbs! So please don't worry about wasting people's time, because people are scrolling through my blog looking for a poll fix and that's what your requests contribute towards! 🧡

Speaking of which, thank you for the poll request, I shall do it below! Keep 'em coming, folks.

i made a post like this before but I can't find it now. so. I'll just redo it.

What's the first "big news story" you remember from when you were a kid?

It's something I love to ask mixed-aged groups sometimes because I think it's really interesting to see the responses. I've gotten answers from the Olympics of [whatever year] to Watergate to more recent stuff from my niblings.

My first news thing I remember is the OJ Simpson trial. I vaguely remember watching the news with my grandparents before that, but that's the first story I remember, in part because my second grade teacher had us go play so she could watch the verdict 😂

People on Tumblr love sharing information about themselves no matter how asinine it is. And I'm the same way. Everybody tell me what the last thing you drank was.
