Guess who forgot that the term t4t existed.

Orientation question.

It just clicked with me what my romantic orientation is and I'm not sure what term to use for it.

Essentially, I'm just not into cis people, I'm only into other trans people.

I've heard the term ceterosexual/ceteromantic which kind of fits, but a lot of people define it as only having interest in non-binary individuals but I've definately had feelings for binary trans people in the past.

If anyone knows the name for this, please let me know!

And before anyone says anything, I understand the sentiment behind the "you don't need to label yourself" thing, but it's not for me. Labels make me comfy.

IM SO MAD AT THE SHAME SOCIETY PLACES ON DYNAMIC DISABILITIES

yes, I was walking unaided yesterday; yes, I am using forearm crutches today

yes, I was using forearm crutches but left them behind to go to the bathroom yesterday; yes, I need to use them even to walk two steps today

yes, I went up the stairs unaided yesterday; yes, I needed my crutches to go up to the stairs today; yes, tomorrow I might need to scooch upstairs on my ass because I won't be able to walk them

yes, I walked unaided to the car to get my crutches out of the car in the morning; yes, I will use them to go on a walk in the afternoon

DISABILITY CAN BE DYNAMIC, MOST PEOPLE ARENT ON A FIXED POINT OF SUPPORT NEEDS AND MOBILITY, WE'LL HAVE GOOD AND BAD DAYS AND I DONT NEED TO EXPLAIN MYSELF TO YOU

If I may add, it's not only important to call out inappropriate behavior for ones own sake but it can be important to the individual behaving that way as well.

I'm autistic and sometimes I can do or say things that are mean or uncool without realizing it (Playful teasing is a big part of my love language, but I can sometimes go too far without knowing). I cannot stress enough that I don't want to hurt anyone and it's not something I do on purpose!

I need people to speak up when I behave in ways like that because a lot of the time I can't tell when I'm upsetting someone and blatant expression of emotions or boundaries (ie, "this is making me sad because-") makes it easier to understand what I did wrong, when I need to apologize and remember not to do so again in the future.

Having a disability does not erase one's need to take accountability for their actions, and when you don't speak up about being treated in a way you don't like, not only are you doing yourself a disservice, but you can be doing it to the person you're interacting with too.

(of course the situation is very different if you're having this issue with a person that is fully aware of where your boundaries are. It doesn't matter if the person is neurodivergent, if they know your boundaries and are violating them anyways, do NOT tolerate that shit. Disabilities are not a get out of jail free card.)

You should cut autistic people some slack when it comes to being blunt, not understanding social cues, or not understanding social norms.

But.

If somebody is being a dick to you, if they’re flirting with you and won’t stop when you ask them to, if they’re being really inappropriate or invasive, it doesn’t matter that they’re autistic! You’re allowed to be uncomfortable with that.

I am autistic and sometimes I do have trouble with social interactions. I often cannot detect sarcasm unless it’s clear from context, I can’t always tell when something is a joke or when somebody is exaggerating, I often can’t tell what people are ‘saying’ if they don’t say it outright, and, though I try to guess anyway, it is extremely taxing and confusing for me.

But that doesn’t mean I can walk around stomping on everybody’s boundaries after they make them explicitly known to me.

I have read far too many stories of specifically some autistic men being completely inappropriate around women, only for the women to be told something along the lines of, “he can’t control it, he’s autistic.” If he can independently go places, he should be able to learn to stop when you say to stop. If he really can’t learn that, then he needs more support (maybe a carer to be out with him and to help him navigate social situations), but, either way, it is completely unacceptable to write off sexual harassment or bigoted behaviour just because somebody is autistic.

interesting how transmascs & transfems alike think losing weight is the answer to pass as our chosen gender.... almost as if fat people are never Truly afforded a passing gender regardless of trans status. as fat people we are never Truly seen as Men or Women. anyway fuck that notion & if u think u need to lose weight to pass that's the devil talking

#I'm fat and I'm androgynous as fuck! #I am proof that it's possible! #This could be you!
