hey there LGBTQ kids who are also Christian/Jewish! If you feel like you’re disobeying God, questioning your faith, or feel wrong and dirty for loving who you love, there’s this fantastic site I found today called hoperemains that accurately and thoroughly combs through scripture and its (many) mistranslations, validates your orientation, and basically let’s you know that you’re not pissing off God. It’s insanely thorough and after reading through every page on the entire site it’s super helpful. Go check it out!

[wearyewe]

No no no! Jewish LGBTQ kinderlach! Go to Keshet! 

hoperemains is completely from a Christian perspective, and not pluralistic or interfaith at all.

If you reblogged the first post from me please reblog this amendment so the Jewish peeps can access this resource too! 

[peppermintfeminist]

Trans Jewish kids, you can go to TransTorah as well!

[fuckyeahsexpositivity]

Muslim LGBTQ kids, you can go to iamnotharaam! It’s run by a mod squad of different genders and orientations, and they take submissions from everybody!

A Blessing for Chest-Binding for Trans, Non-Binary, and/or Gender Non-Conforming Jews

Baruch at Adonai Eloheinu Melech ha’olam asher kid’shanu b’mitvvoteha c’tzivanu al mitzvat y’tzirah atzmit.

Blessed are You, Adonai our G-d, Sovereign of the universe, who hallows us with mitzvot, commanding us to re-create ourselves. 

- by Rabbi Elliot Kukla and Rabbi Ari Lev Fornari, 2007, in Mishkan Ga’avah: Where Pride Dwells

It seems like this could work for various trans-related things, like taking HRT.

رَبِّ إِنِّي لِمَا أَنزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ

God full of mercy, bless the souls of all who are in our hearts on this Transgender Day of Remembrance. We call to mind today young and old, of every race, faith, and gender experience, who have died by violence. We remember those who have died because they would not hide, or did not pass, or did pass, or stood too proud. Today we name them: the reluctant activist; the fiery hurler of heels; the warrior for quiet truth; the one whom no one really knew.

As many as we can name, there are thousands more whom we cannot, and for whom no Kaddish may have been said. We mourn their senseless deaths, and give thanks for their lives, for their teaching, and for the brief glow of each holy flame. We pray for the strength to carry on their legacy of vision, bravery, and love.

And as we remember them, we remember with them the thousands more who have taken their own lives. We pray for resolve to root out the injustice, ignorance, and cruelty that grow despair. And we pray, God, that all those who perpetrate hate and violence will speedily come to understand that Your creation has many faces, many genders, many holy expressions.

Blessed are they, who have allowed their divine image to shine in the world. Blessed is God, in Whom no light is extinguished.

Be kind to your hairline!

Here’s the original Twitter post on this 

[halalgirlmeg]

If you got natural hair get you one of them silk caps from the hair store for like dollar and wrap it under your under cap. Keeps your hair from drying out and protects your hairline

[halalgirlmeg]

Also twists and cornrows do wonders to help your hair be neat under your scarf and they’re low maintenance (much like otherwise) and if you get box braids an undercap helps hold it up!

muslim wlw, you are beautiful
