18-22 is a confusing age. I got friends getting married, some in prison, and some still have to ask their parents to stay out past curfew.

If you know film and/or photography, you probably know the name Muybridge, the man who effectively invented cinema by taking photos in rapid succession of a horse galloping in order to settle a bet. And then went on to film endless movement sequences, mostly walk cycles, of various animals and human subjects (to the enternal gratitude of animators everywhere).

Apparently this is what happened when he got to cats.

I just heard two kids playing outside and one goes

‘I do not fear the dark side’

then another kid goes

‘YOU SHOULD’

and then I just hear a WHACK noise and then crying

[cascadingcrusader]

That is the sound of childhood happening

autistic trans people are incredible!!

[infinitimatti]

just a quick note- no trans person has ever said “did you just assume my gender.” trans people are very aware of how their gender and physical appearance differ and that visually one might assume that they are a man/woman when they are actually not. that’s kind of the whole idea of gender dysphoria. 

[infinitimatti]

and also you’ve beaten your “attack helicopter” joke into the fucking ground. cut that shit out.

[infinitimatti]

i wanted to add one more thing to this post that other people have pointed out: i know its an awkward question, but a lot of trans people are going to be 100% fine with you asking what their gender is, or with calmly correcting you if you get it wrong. and if they’re not, then they’re way more likely to keep it to themselves than get visibly angry with someone. this idea that trans people just go apeshit when people misgender them accidentally/when first meeting them is a complete fabrication for a stupid joke and that’s why i despise it so much. 

[petefoxshend-deactivated2018062]

I can’t afford to get visibly angry about people misgendering me because that puts me in danger of getting harmed. once a cis person finds out my gender, one of two things will happen: they either accept me to various degrees, or they reject me and potentially escalate the situation. politeness is the only way I can decrease the risk of the latter.

the “DID YOU ASSUME MY GENDER?!” trope only serves to make trans people look ridiculous/unreasonable in the eyes of cis people, and places in their minds preconceptions about us that makes it harder, ultimately, for us to come out safely. if all they know about trans people are shitty jokes, then we as a people become those jokes to them.

everyone talks about “did you put your name in the goblet of fire” being the worst book to movie dialogue fail but lets be real the worst is where hermione answers a question in class and snape calls her an “insufferable know-it-all” and in the book ron is furious and he goes OFF and says “you asked a question and she knows the answer! why ask if you don’t want to be told?” but in the movies they just make him say “he’s got a point, you know” and i’m still mad about it

[harrypotterconfessions]

same, never forgive for Rons character assassination

this photo as the text below shows this is coming from 1933 july. the photo was taken in a night club in berlin, the women shown in the photo are all male to female transwomen, it is images like these that prove that trans people have always existed even in the most hostile times (Hitler became chancellor in 1933). as a cis male i feel the need to share this to show my trans sisters and brothers that there is hope and there have always been trans folks in the world.

If taste buds didn’t exist, everybody would be so healthy and food would only be marketed based on its health benefits.

fast messy little thing about teenage insecurity that I just wanted to scribble out cause it was on my mind for some reason. (be kind to people because you never know how your words might impact them!) To everyone else who’s ever hated their appearance (which let’s be real, is probably everyone reading this right now), I feel you. there’s good days and bad days but hopefully more good than bad. have a great night! best, Kat

Didn’t realize someone had posted this on Tumblr. Cool.

As exhausting as all the blowback I’ve gotten for this (trans women are remarkable able to unify misogynists and radical feminists in their disgust of us), I’ve been really touched by how many people have reached out to say this argument has changed their mind on the subject.

I’m going to keep talking about it until it stops happening, or trans women cease being murdered for triggering male anxieties.
