if you go onto one of my posts to try and derail it to make it about any other demographic (in a way that is obviously bad faith), i hope you keel over and die lol

#make your own fucking post #my posts are for AND ABOUT transmascs first and foremost. #my blog is centered around transmasculinity and the issues we face as transmascs. #don't bring up anyone else unprovoked ESPECIALLY to try and convolute what i say #yes this is about a certain user whos blog name rhymes with 'mite-sub' #stop crawling the anti-transmasculinity (and adjacent) tags #get a fucking hobby #uchi.txt #vent? #transandrophobia #anti transmasculinity #transmasc #transmasculine

i think the solution to seeing more of the content about your specific kind of trans existence to follow blogs that actually post about it instead of expecting different trans ppl to cater to you. tumblr is not activism and ppl are allowed to do whatever they want on their personal tumblrs, so like??? i am not expecting a trans girl to blog about transmasc experiences and vice versa. it is not a "denial of resources" and it is not oppression to not be blogged about on Tumblr Dot Com. this is literally just a little journal. we're not changing the world, we're venting or posting about things we like. allow others their space. "waaah there's too much x on my dash, why aren't they posting about y" why do you follow people who only post about x then, why aren't you following the million blogs that post about y? it's tumblr. we're not running out of space. there is room for all of us, so curate your dash and stop whining.

#trans #basically my personal philosophy #i will not end anti-transmasculinity by posting shit on a blog about taking demon boy cock #it's all venting #it's not activism in the slightest #demanding that someone post more about a certain issue #is pretty much asking for virtue signaling. #using a platform is for people with more than 14 followers #using a platform is for ppl like celebrities #big youtubers #that sort of thing #most tumblr users do not have that kind of reach #so if a trans girl on here doesn't talk about transmasc issues ever? #why do i fucking care #it's her blog #it's not some vital queer resource #i'm not entitled to her silly little journal #where all she does is post things she feels #we need to stop acting like it's bad praxis to just have our own spaces for our own experiences #not everything is about everyone #sometimes it is just about you #sometimes it is just about me #and that is FINE #because tumblr posts are not a limited resource

I was on reddit a year plus ago, and I recall coming across a comment where someone identified as trans effeminate, and if I recall correctly that person was ftm.

I often am unable to fit myself into the culture of transmasculine people and trans men. I view myself more along the lines of male than say a man or a boy, although I’m open to being referred to as either, I don’t care much. I do not view myself as masculine, but for convenience when relevant I’ll be transmasculine, or a trans man.

I no longer mind being referred to as she, I mean I do, but it’s sort of gender lore. I feel like me being misgendered adds to my gender history.

I’ve come to somewhat of a conclusion that my identity very well could change, as it has and continues to.

Currently, I’m seeing myself as transeffeminate, as well as butch, transsexual, and male. This could change, and it may. I still am a gender monster, I want to become more of a gender monster. Top surgery is an interest I have but due to feeling that I could morph my chest into a male presenting one without surgery.

If I do get top surgery, I’d like to try prosthetic breast some time. Sounds conflicting, sure, but it’s very gender.

Also, boy boobs are really cool, I feel confused about my chest and I almost don’t know what to do about it. On one hand, boys and guys with breasts are insanely awesome , on the other I do not have an interest in keeping them to be truthful. I love transmascs and trans men who have and desire to keep their breasts, I’m not sure I’m one of them.

I’ll add I’m also agender, genderless, monstergender, and bigender m,x

I don’t know if I’m way behind in this kind of knowledge, but there was a difference for me between logically knowing that women can be HIV+ / get AIDS and seeing numbers for women around the world who are HIV+ or have died from AIDS-related complications

I understand why the narrative is as it is, the way homophobia meant/means a lack of treatment development + a lack of ability to access healthcare, but the way it’s affecting women is massively intersectional with racism/colonialism and poverty, and goes hand in hand with a lack of education because of (you guessed it) homophobia 

I just think everyone should take in these numbers as a matter of education, both to support women around the world and because we’re seeing yet another case of homophobia-is-stopping-people-from-getting-tested/helped with monkeypox:

AIDS epidemic update: December 2000 (worldwide)

compare

AIDS epidemic update: 2021 (worldwide)

here are a few testimonies from british women in the 80s/90s

and Rebel Dykes, the documentary about working class S/M political lesbians in London, talks briefly about awareness raising/invisibility of HIV+ women in the 80s

I’ve also anecdotally had conversations around women and HIV about the rates in middle-aged divorced women, who haven’t been educated on the risks after possible years of sleeping with one partner, apparently that’s a significant risk group (because, again... lack of education+ homophobic institutions) 

#hiv #aids #monkeypox #queer rights #womens rights #colonialism #there's a difference between knowing intuitively and Knowing through educating oneself #think a lot of people still subconsciously think of it as A Disease That Hits Queer Men and trans women and drug users as an afterthought #and faaaar far in the background of that thought is *oh yeah and some countries in africa* #(what countries? some... countries...) #which is our internalised racism and colonialism #and #because it was first used to attack queer men and then gay men for obvs reasons created a lot of mutual aid around it #have a lot more research to do -- mainly want to look for testimonies from women non-western countries #*in #i also wonder whether there are any transmasculine/trans male anecdotes #there's some unlearning to do and some learning to do #obvs we cannot individually protect every person in every country but i think it's good to be educated on this #id hazard some of the countries with the highest rates in women are also countries where it's still illegal to be gay #colonialism and homophobia and the aids epidemic go hand in hand #whaddayaknow... there's always more to intersectionalism than one knows #how do we utilise global connection for good? (not as in *burn yourself out on everything all at once*) #but as in -- we have siblings across the world and our actions affect one another across the world #ex. how covid vaccines were being hoarded #or how statistically at least as many women globally are hiv+ as men... at LEAST possibly more (and there's less resources/education) #or how i think about my transmasc and trans male and non-binary siblings across the world who either do or do not want to be pregnant #or i think about this documentary about the band mashrou leila and the activist sarah hegazi who was arrested/tortured #for unfurling a rainbow flag at one of their concerts and how one man who runs an lgbt+ center in beirut talked about the need #for global queer solidarity #lots of thoughts going in lots of directions apologies ive gone a little off topic on this post

honestly as a butch, i just gotta say it: that "chivalrous knight in shining armor" crap is objectifying as hell and it's not fun, cute, or validating to apply to us, it provides a burden for us to bear, it makes us paranoid, tired, weary and feel like we're being reduced to a stereotype, or like we're being forced into a mold.

i'm not a knight just because i'm a transmasculine person who looks tough and can theoretically protect femme queers. i'm literally just standing here, being transsexual. i'm not inherently "chilvarous," i don't have any obligation to protect people just because i adopted the label "butch". what if i'm weak? what if the butch needs to be protected? what if the butch is disabled, traumatized, or just scared? i'm a wheelchair user.

why can't femmes protect their butches? why does it always have to be the butch being the chivalrous knight in our yearning posts and poems? why do we have to weave a performative ass narrative of the masculine partner swooping in to protect their defenseless feminine partner? how the HELL is this progressive or subversive at all? this is literally reinventing the binary.

the way the (white) cis lesbian community treats its butches is alienating as all hell. we are not here just to protect other people. we are not inherently protectors. we are not all strong. we are allowed to be weak. we are allowed to be scared. we are allowed to be hurt. we don't HAVE to protect our femmes, if we like femmes at all. not every butch is attracted to femme people in the first place.

butch isn't a lifestyle, it's not a set personality type. it's not a specific set of actions; it's just queer masculinity, that can be expressed by a multitude of queers for a multitude of reasons. it's not one specific set of traits. masculinity is not just found in protecting others and acting tough, it's also in being soft, vulnerable, weak and tender.

just let butches be people, don't turn us into objects before we even get out of the gates. all of this removes the human element of being butch. if the queer community can't afford that, we can't get it from anywhere, because we sure as hell aren't seen as humans by cisheteronormative society.

don't force me to see myself as a knight when i'm the one who needs help just because i'm masculine, or just because i'm a man.

butches need help, too.

"reported instances of bigotry against asexuals and transmasculine people are actually just misidentified instances of misogyny and not types of queerphobia" says tumblr user who I'm sure is really really cool about aces and transmascs if you search keywords on their blog

Hey, I saw a post from another tumblr user that you are a Zionist and spreading false info about Jewish people being excluded from pride parades and I don't know what a Zionist is (they just said it was nationalist) but I enjoy your blog and wanted to ask you about it directly to understand better whats going on if thats okay? Im not anonymous in case you want to privately answer or tell me youd not want to discuss. 💕

first, i wanna thank you for being respectful about this, and for asking this off anon. this tells me you're asking in good faith, so i'm happy to answer.

i've had to state numerous times on my blog that i'm not a zionist bc people love to slap that label on any jew they disagree with, which is exactly what's happening in this situation. they disagreed with what i said about a lot of jews not feeling comfortable at pride because of the pervasive antisemitism in queer spaces, and several queer events banning the jewish pride flag because it "looked too similar to the israeli flag" and decided that made me a zionist. it happens a lot bc ppl know that that word is very taboo in activist spaces, and labeling you a zionist is a surefire way to get you kicked out of a lot of progressive circles. interestingly (said with a huge dollop of sarcasm) this rarely happens to gentiles.

zionist is also a pretty useless word for determining what someone actually believes, because depending on who you ask their ideologies can range from "i think that jewish people should be able to live in the land that is currently israel and palestine alongside palestinians and other indigenous groups" to "i think that only jews should get to live in that area and we should kick everyone else out." and as you can imagine, there's lots of people like me who agree with the first statement but vehemently disagree with the second. it's become somewhat of a dogwhistle, to the point that alt righters popularized "zio" as a slur, which was then picked up by leftists (because there is also a huge problem with antisemitism in leftist and non palestinian gentile-dominated antizionist spaces.) one of the events i mentioned in the first paragraph deleted a tweet using this slur.

the person you're probably talking about also claimed that i, a genderqueer trans man, am a misogynist, because i said that jewish masculinity is very culturally different from white masculinity and that i find a lot of comfort in it. they cited a bunch of problems with misogyny within the orthodox community, despite the fact i'm not orthodox or even ashkenazi. what it boiled down to is that they disagree with the takes i have on anti transmasculinity, and they needed something else to pin it on.

so in the future, if you see someone accusing a jew of being a zionist, take everything they have to say with a bucket full of salt and do as you did with this ask and go ask the person what they actually believe. sometimes you'll find their beliefs actually don't line up with your morals and you can unfollow, but the vast majority of the time you'll find that they just said something someone didn't like and it was the easiest way to discredit them.

in general, i don't share my opinions about zionism/antizionism on tumblr because that's not what my blog is centered on, and also i oppose the expectation that jews should have to disclose our opinions on zionism in order for gentiles to determine whether or not we are worth listening to. i also have a lot of thoughts abt how the focus on anti-anything makes it easier for activists to weaponize that activism against marginalized people, but that's an entirely different post.

anyway, i hope that answers your question, and i will probably pin this ask somewhere on my blog since i have been asked this a few times now and it seems unavoidable since ppl just won't drop it.
