Its Crazy That Before I Realized Im Trans I Never Wanted To Grow Up, And Could Never Imagine A Future

Queer 👏 people 👏 are 👏 not 👏 all 👏 fucking 👏 activists 👏

Stop quizzing us on queer history and asking us questions we aren’t qualified to answer about the world and about politics and about our identities

Stop trying to back us into a corner so you can justify your discrimination on the basis that we don’t know what we’re talking about or can’t “defend” ourselves to you

Stop treating every queer person that stands up and says “I want to be treated like a person” as if they’re an activist

Cut that bullshit out

Marginalised people just want to exist and be happy

I don’t know everything, and that doesn’t make me undeserving of your respect or my human rights you fucker

I don’t even owe you the stuff I do know- I still am entitled to basic fucking respect

TLDR; Queer people shouldn’t have to be historians or scientists for you to not be a fucking dick

therapy is such a scam. all you need to do is buy a 5'6 zweihänder and swing it around your home now and then to feel better. been doing it for years and im the very picture of good mental health

It's tiring how every time there's a new anti-trans law a million liberals try to um actually 🤓☝️ the wording as if conservative politicians are fairies who will melt away as a result of a law being poorly worded. Yay everyone is technically considered female now because of a bad definition of female-ness, how does that fact help me not get unpersoned? It really only matters if you're a lawyer arguing in court

Adobe is going to spy on your projects. This is insane.

I wonder how deeply the stereotype that it’s easy for trans men/mascs to pass is rooted in survivorship bias. I came out and started to transition long ago under the old WPATH standards, which demanded social transition prior to medical transition for trans men. My therapist directly told me that if I were a trans woman, she would have written the letter for HRT for me almost immediately; instead, I had to jump through hoops for years—I missed the window to gain significant height from T because of this. (Informed consent/DIY was not accessible to me; this is another discussion.) If I were not already a bit tall and butch by sheer luck, would I have been able to persist as a trans man? Would I have gone back into the closet, to some miserable end? Would I have lived at all? If I died, what name and pronouns would have been on the obituary? The 2015 US Trans Survey gets trotted out a lot—but one figure that always jumped out at me was the age graph from page 46. Look at how young the trans men skew—only 10% are 45 or older. (The non-binary category is of course even worse.) How different might that be, if things had truly been safer in the past for trans men?
