Debated even making a post about this, but it really sucks that the oversexulization of trans women is treated like online micro-discourse. Transfeminity being seen purely as sexual is the basis fueling a HUGE percentage of the transphobia sweeping through the US and UK. Behind almost every single bathroom bill and legislation defining being trans as obscene is a politician saying something akin to “we need to protect womens spaces from dangerous biological males who will sneak in and sexually assault them.” People automatically assuming trans women to be sexual predators is exactly why groomer became the go-to insult on the right.

So of course trans women on tumblr get mad when you say “why are you posting about misogyny when we could be fucking? 😋” or respond to them asking you to be normal about trans women with a “YESSS I LOVE GIRLCOCK step on me tgirls 😍” It’s perpetuating the same problem in the other direction.

I love you being trans I love you trans women i love you gender exploration I love you self discovery

[link to the Reddit post]

[ID: two screenshots of a reddit post on r/offmychest by user awaythrowjessie, titled "My girlfriend made me realize I'd be happier as a woman". it reads as follows:

I am 33, born male, and have had major self image issues my entire life. I hated seeing myself in mirrors, pictures, you name it. I honestly thought it was kinda normal so I just accepted it.

Now about 3 weeks ago I was at my girlfriends house, we have been dating a little over a year now, and have plans to move in together soon. Now recently she has shaved her head to support of her friends with cancer (side note thenl treatments for that friend are going very well). She had since bought some wigs to wear while her hair grows back out. We were joking around as I have male pattern baldness, and when she went to the bathroom I jokingly threw a wig on and waited. She came our, saw me we laughed for a bit and she said "you know I think you'd make a pretty girl" we laughed some more but those words triggered something in me.

Cut to a few night's ago she asked why I've been acting weird lately and I just told her how i was feeling. She said "alright let's do this " and when I asked what she told me she was going to give me a bit of a makeover and put me in one of her dresses and if i liked it then good. I was nervous and asked what if I did like it would she still be attracted to me. She just responded with "Baby you know I'm bi, guy or girl you're still mine." Her words reassured me honestly i love her so much.

Anyways she finished the make up, fitted a wig on me perfectly and got me in a dress and even helped me put a bra on and stuff in a little so i could see what breasts would kinda look like on me. Now I expected to see myself in the mirror, laugh this off and move on right, but I didn't. She did an unbelievable job, like I looked like I had been born a woman, and when I saw myself in the mirror for the first time in my entire life, I liked what I saw. I probably stared at myself for a good 10 minutes before she finally asked me something. She asked what I wanted to be called. After a few seconds I said Jessie, I always like the name Jessie. She whispered in my ear "well Jessie, you look beautiful." And that was it, I knew this was who i wanted to be.

I'm nervous now though, my friends will accept it but my family are, well let's just say not very progressive. But this is what I want.

over christmas when i came out fully to my mom she did tell me i was beautiful and gave me some of her old jewelry and told me she was excited to have another daughter and that was all wonderful, but the part that meant the most to me was when i told her "i want to get my facial hair taken care of sooner than later, the whole "girl" thing is a lot easier to swallow when im shaved" and she examined my use of the phrase "it's a lot easier to swallow" and said "Scout, I didn't have a good relationship with my mother. you know that." (i did know that, my grandma was NOT good to my mother) "but your grandma kim [friend of my grandma's, unrelated by blood in any way, but was adopted as a grandma through familial osmosis] was the greatest woman who's ever been in my life. and up until the day she died, she had a beard and a moustache [which is true, my grandma kim, a cis woman, had VERY thick facial hair]. if you kept your facial hair for the rest of your life i wouldnt think of you as less of a woman" and ya know what? THAT'S the part of her support that made me cry.

my grandma kim was an amazing woman and she had peach fuzz that she didnt give a FUCK about. and everyone loved her.

you can have your own fuzz too, and that doesn't make you not a woman.

Congrats on opening the new Shop! What kind of "junk" are you selling?

They insist it's SUPER high quality junk.

A couple years have gone by since monsters officially reintegrated back into surface society. Families have settled into homes, suburbs have been built, and the sun shines above it all. But in a world of potential and limitless possibility - some things just never change. Or, in Bratty & Catty's case, some things change - just not by very much! Having upgraded from a back-alley shop to an actual building, "Buy Our Junk!" is moving up in the world! In fact, they just wrapped up their grand opening! To promote such an occasion, Bratty & Catty have set up a company email to answer the burning questions of all their dear customers!

Inspired by The Female Armor Bingo, I present to you my short guide to armor bust areas, to better help you decide what to wear :P

Any resemblance to particular armors, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Well… mostly.

Edit: Here’s a follow-up picture- the butt area

Bratty & Catty headcanons

Both are transfem. Bratty is pan while Catty is a lesbo. The two were killing time one day and Bratty randomly blurted out "D'you think that. Like. Girls can kiss other girls?" and Catty paused and looked at Bratty as if she had just had a divine revelation.

Bratty often gets lost in her thoughts. Head in the clouds. Very often will space out or get distracted. My blorbo autism be upon ye. She talks to herself a lot and will randomly blurt out something unimportant and Catty will immediately jump on it like a genuine suggestion

Catty has that Ed kinda vibe, except a lot more upbeat and wacky rather than genuine con-artist. She's always cooking up schemes and ways to cut corners, to which they never work. Not maliciously, more in a "something to do to kill time" kinda way - they do it to earn a quick buck, sure, but mostly just to spend time together.

Catty has this fascinating ability to always succeed on Charisma in every context except for when she's actually trying to. She will accidentally spill a drink all over someone and say "oopsies! my bad ;P" and they will have zero problems with her. At the same time, a scheme of hers will go wrong and she'll try to "charm" her way out of it, to which it just lands her in even worse trouble.

Bratty is super sweet and well meaning, but she has trouble like. Softening the blow if they makes sense. If you say something to her that she doesn't like, she will just stop talking to you. If you wanna do something with her that's like. Negative sensory. She will say no and refuse to elaborate. Once again, she gets my autism.

^^^ Bratty does genuinely try to be helpful and patient with people, though she's *very* bad at helping. While Catty has zero chill if you piss her off. She'll be friendly and have good intentions, but if you say the wrong thing she immediately snaps into mean-girl passive aggressive "don't talk to me or my girlfriend ever again" mode. And she has every right to do so.

They are both kinda dumb but in very different ways. Best way I can explain this is like. If you ask Bratty for directions, she'll get you where you want to go, she'd just explain it in the least-helpful way possible. If you were to ask Catty for directions, she'd give you the complete wrong directions. She doesn't know her lefts from her rights and Bratty has to constantly remind her.

My girls deserve more acknowledgement and every day I get this much closer
