Remember when it came out that Jeffrey Epstein and his billionaire rapist pals had deliberately manufactured modern movement transphobia to make us easier to exploit sexually and no one but us cared?

all of contemporary transphobia feels so manufactured and fake and it's hard to explain how and why to people who haven't felt it happen at them but like people used to not like Really Care; there were shitty people but like no one built their life around being transphobic

me: i remember when i was a kid, before they invented smartphones... my elf gf: When I was a child, Selarenréoþ had yet to sing the forests into being. me: oh my god 🙄 i get it. you're sooo much older than me. you still good with pizza tonight by the way? her: I am ever ready for pizza, sapling.

it's the famous My Girlfriend, from all the posts where i mention my girlfriend!! ❤️

"decisions about trans care for minors should be made by their parents" is an anti-trans policy position, inhumane to the point of absurdity, which only sounds pro-trans to people who aren't paying attention. what those words mean is "the children of bigots should be left to suffer with no recourse"

Valerie Halla@valeriehalla.dicot.moe · 2w ago

"decisions about whether or when minors access transgender medical care should be made by parents, not politicians" actually they should be made by the minors in question, who are human beings. if you don't need parental consent to experience one kind of puberty why should you need it for the other

World's going to shit but at least I look cute

I believe that we should all have the right to change sex, freedom from discrimination for changing sex, and access to the means of changing sex socially, bodily, and legally, without being subject to pathologizing regulatory regimes enforcing patriarchal law and mandatory heterosexuality.

important to revisit the words of the Founding Fathers on this day

I will just believe anything's secret origin is transmisogyny at this point. "Stonehenge was built for tracking druidic hrt injections but Roman terfs refused to write that down" I believe it! "Atlantis was real, and sank because it got weird about trans women" how could that NOT be true?

SHUT THE FUCK UP, HOLY SHIT IT'S REAL the essay deadass starts with "it is unknowable through what lens and mentality daisuke operated when he declared that bridget was a girl" i am going to Throw Up

I'll be honest, I've never really felt the same way about Death of the Author after learning its origins (Barthes was angry over a Balzac story about a chaser, written over a century prior, for referring to a character as a woman instead of a femboy no I'm not making this up)

It's the weekend, baby

being a trans woman on a day to day basis really is wild,, it's like vacillating between "it's so over, i'll be dead by 2030" and "i'm literally the hottest woman alive, i already killed god, i created the big bang, i can literally fuck spacetime so hard that the gravity waves will hit andromeda"

"I'm doing my part! Are you?" Promote transgenderism in your community today!

puberty blockers were the compromise and y'all couldn't accept that so now we're just gonna put estrogen in the water supply actually

Many people will shout, "No one is seriously suggesting that young people be put on hormones!" and to be perfectly, 100% clear, trans people are seriously suggesting that. Trans people of all ages would prefer if young trans people had access to HRT instead of the compromise of puberty blockers.

Why's sleeping gotta be a whole ordeal? We've evolved to do it for a billion years and we got special rooms and enthusiast equipment for it and it's still this whole fuckin process

You want a vision of "positive manhood"? Stop being afraid of being like women. Stop refusing to admit women can be like you. Can be better than you, even. And stop maiming and killing and destroying in order to preserve that fiction of superiority.

Apparently this post was made with the assumption that people would agree this is okay to do to a child

ICE must be destroyed 🏳️‍⚧️🏴@miawong.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Every once in a while you hit the Rosetta stone of American politics and yeah this is about 60%-70% of American gender politics in one post Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

so close to getting it (yes, many parents are irredeemably abusive pieces of shit and it’s so fucking normalized that people like this think it’s a gotcha to bring it up)

Quadlok@quadlok.bsky.social · 2mo ago

The point is most adults in the US have been guilty of the level of assault Platner is. Either its acceptable when its a child or most parents are irredeemably abusive according to the standard people are holding him to.

It's Pride Month, so once again here's Sappho's Reply, one of the most powerful queer poems ever. Written by Rita Mae Brown at the height of the post-Stonewall struggles, it's the origin of "an army of lovers shall not fail/cannot lose." Y'all, we are going to win.

a protest has formed outside the bathroom after my girlfriend's controversial decision to close the door for some privacy

happy pride hire trans women

Now is the time to make your thing. Stop motion with LEGO, webcomic, walking sim game, weird Halloween costume, backyard water feature, container garden. This is your sign. Make your thing. Stop waiting. Do it.
