this has probably been said before but transphobes' obsession with genitalia is actually fucking creepy. When I have a grownass woman in my DMs assuming I have a "female" body, and calling me "she" even though they've only ever seen a username, it kinda makes me feel queasy.

Mfs need to get normal about different body types
I saw a vid the other day on a short form content app which was a drawing "tutorial" (major stretch to say it taught the viewer anything) on how to draw different body types in women.
The body types? oh. slim and curvy: the two most acceptable body types for women to have (even if men will still criticize them for it).
Where is the tutorial on drawing bigger bodies, muscular or fat?? like, actually different body types? where's my tutorial on how to draw fat women and other people?
lemme tell you, it's definitely not on that person's page.

OP here, please don't apologize! Add whatever you want to add if you think it's applicable!
they/them pronouns can be used to de-gender people. Queer people need to understand this.
I'll tell you a story to illustrate my point: my parents suck. They're conservative and think that the generational trauma they're inflicting on me is normal. They refuse to listen to my experiences. They've gotten violent before. I've had to flee my house.
Before I was ever outed as a trans guy, my best friend used they/them and identified as non-binary. They still do. I would say they definitely helped me sort my own shit out.
My parents knew about this, and they consistently deadnamed and misgendered them. They pulled out the "they is for multiple people, it's too confusing" card many times. This is one of the reasons I completely shut my feelings and emotions off from them, because obviously, blatant transphobia was not acceptable to me. I defended my friend openly and corrected them every time they would say "she". It got heated, sometimes.
Fast forward to when I was outed. My mom now suddenly insists that he/him is too hard for her to use, and that only NOW she can choose to use they/them for me.
This is de-gendering. I pass more nowadays ever since I started testosterone, but I'll hear a "they" coming from my boss at work even though he knows I'm a trans man, or even people in queer spaces when I have a he/him pronoun pin on me, clearly visible.
It's frustrating because now, my parents being assholes, I think I legitimately might have mild trauma sourced from being called "they" by my parents, who have actively humiliated and abused me ever since I came out.
So, I ask: please do not use they for people who have explicitly outlined otherwise. This should be simple. Apparently, for a lot of people, it's not.

Are you really an ally?
Are you really an ally when you sit back and watch as your queer classmate (or any classmate, really) get dogpiled on during class because they said something in support of queer rights?
Are you really an ally when your sibling comes out to you in one of the most vulnerable moments of their life, only to ask tell them "maybe you should rethink this"?
Are you really an ally when you, a queer person, is willing to ignore other subjegated minorities because they supposedly aren't as oppressed as you are?
Are you really an ally? Seriously? Because you aren't acting like one.
I'm not asking for activism (though that would be nice). I'm asking for support. That is what allyship entails.

Deleting the tumblr app for a bit. Some of this stuff is genuinely affecting my mental well being and I’m forcing myself to slow down.
Might hop on desktop every now and then but don’t expect much for like ~3 months
Free palestine, trans rights, fuck terfs, yadayada. <2

From @transexualpirate
“Manly” was more so me talking about my personal experience as a trans guy vs “metal” as a general statement about periods. Could’ve made that more clear mayhaps
so sick of “feminine products” and “feminine napkins” and that stupid shit.
SAY PERIOD, say menstruation/menstrual cycle if it’s more formal. fuck you
Me bleeding out of my pussy once a month is the most manly thing i could’ve done for the past 8 years of this hell on earth. Periods are fucking metal. show them some goddamn respect

some people will say they’re allies to autistic people and then immediately start chastising autistics whose stimming is too annoying or gross to them…

Hi, you. Do you ever find yourself doomscrolling through radfem tags? Do you scroll through Tiktok/IG Reels/YT shorts looking for bigoted comments? Do you ever open twitter.com…ever?
Hey. This isn’t good for you. Hell, my therapist even referred to it as a form of self harm.
You, an everyday queer person, are not going to find much anything you haven’t seen before. It’s gonna be the same idiots using the same long-debunked talking points they always have in order to discredit your lived experience and tell you that you’re delusional and degenerate. They want to dehumanize you and degrade you.
You aren’t going to convince people online, you, the everyday queer person. You may even know that yourself; but it’s addicting, isn’t it? The sense that you have control of the misinformation? This takedown’s gonna show everyone, they’ll finally see. If I tell this terf to fuck off, it’ll make me feel better…
Really, they won’t. More likely than not, internet users don’t listen to a faceless username. Deradicalization is powerful, but that best happens when it someone you know and not some random guy’s well-thought out rebuttal.
Hey. You—everyday queer person. Go take a rest. Put your phone down, just for five minutes. Take a walk if the weather’s nice; write a fic; draw your blorbos; eat a meal; text a supportive friend.
There’s people out here that are going to support you no matter what. TERF tumblr isn’t as big as you think it is and it’s going to get smaller. Bigotry will become far less socially acceptable. It’s going to be ok.
A better future isn’t inevitable, but when you take time to give your mind a rest, you’ll be here for it if we make it happen.
