“I am so incredibly proud of you, you re just the prettiest boy alive.

You’ve always made sure to remember me -

clothes are just clothes and it doesn’t matter what I chose to put on my face.

You ve always seen me for the real me and you ve legit never put any stereotypes on me based on what you think I should look like. »

I m grateful for a simple act that made my journey easier and made my queerness a safer place for me at the time. You played an important part in breaking invisible limits and expectations I was putting on the validity of my transness.

Now I know it s hard for you too.

« I know it s scary, it feels like u give people power to perceive you a certain way ..and it s like you lose control. But I see you my darling and you are divine.

Makeup is art, you re a piece of work, it is queer as fuck.

I reject all notions of femininity cuz it s only based on a lie and comes from a system who tries to control our lives. ”

#transgender #makeup has no gender #everyone is in drag all the time #makeup is art #art is gender #I won’t let patriarchy have power over something that makes me happy #i won’t let people’s opinions make me feel bad about myself because only the important people needs to see the real me

Damn I’ve been looking good lately! Literally nothing has changed, but I’m suddenly REALLY vibing with how i look! My dysphoria is lower than it’s been in YEARS, I’m more confident, I’ve started doing a bit of makeup again, and I’m generally relatively happy! I don’t know how to handle this lmao, this has never happened before!

#trans guy #makeup has no gender #and I’ll wear it if i want to #now if only i could figure out eyeliner…

[bogkeep]

every time i read an autobiographical comic about a transfeminine person practicing putting on makeup as a visual metaphor for the difficulty of Performing Womanhood i can feel my whole heart vibrate with sympathy. like. one of the absolutely most common Girl Experiences is feeling like you're never girling right or enough. there's so many rules and expectations and there's fucking makeup. i could never wrap my head around makeup!! not even for gender reasons, it's just this whole culture i don't understand. trying to grasp makeup feels like being a street urchin at an extremely exclusive high end restaurant crying because i don't know what fork to use and they won't let me eat with my hands. my seventh grade classmates tried to help me be girl by taking me shopping for nice clothes and mascara and i couldn't even wear it for a week. not only do you have to go through the intricate rituals of application but you have to remove it at the end of the day??? and everyone acts as if this arcane knowledge is something inherent to girlhood that you're just born knowing and feel naturally inclined to do??? i don't understand!!! i don't understand!!!!! people treated me as if i was being rebellious and making a statement but i just do not understand all the powders and inks and pencils and gunks and creams and brushes!! they feel bad against my face and i'll flinch from anything getting too close to my eyes. it doesn't matter how many offers for help i get or how many tutorials there are, i never wanted this for myself! i shouldn't have to do this! i can be a person without it just fine if you let me!

watching anyone trying to learn how to do makeup from scratch is like watching someone learning a new language. if you think it's hard it's because it is hard and don't let them tell you it's not, just because they've been speaking it for a long time

#'you don't need a full face just five products-' #and every step will feel like a thousand knives #ultimately my relationship to makeup has very little to do with whatever my gender turned out to be. it's an absolutely baffling practice #u dont gotta wear makeup if u dont wanna!!!!!!! #but i also know society can be hostile to people who dont wear makeup when theyre percieved as someone who Should #so its not like im gonna tell anyone what they should or shouldnt do

what I was talking abt earlier. we have fully looped back around and away from feminism, societally, whereas before it was very Feminism 101 to acknowledge that many parts of existing as a woman in a misogynistic society are painful and upsetting. not that being a woman is Inherently Negative in a bubble. but that living on this earth, in the conditions we're living in, is hostile to women. and that gender is a performance. that many of the Staples Of Femininity as accepted by society are things that you have to create and perform and mold artificially and aren't inherent, that COMPLAINING about day to day difficulties of existing as a woman is something that you're allowed to do. acknowledging these basic, again, feminism 101 things, that something tied to womanhood is more time consuming or more expensive or more dangerous Because Of The Problems. does not CREATE the problems. that when women complain about having to perform femininity, they are not, in fact, oppressing themselves. the call does not come from inside the fucking house. saying that you HAVE suffered does not fucking equate that you believe you SHOULD have suffered.

like I could talk about this for hours. how braindead and one-dimensional the Takes are getting. "being a woman is looking in the mirror and going fuck yeah i'm a woman" damn. I guess any negative experiences you have by living in a misogynistic world... are your fault if you are anything but positive? "you don't actually want liberation" we've fully gone back to telling feminists "you WANT to be oppressed" when anything negative about our society is pointed out. it's not real until I say it out loud, I guess, and then I'm actually the one who caused it. if anybody expresses any unhappiness with how they're treated or the status quo or the language and culture surrounding womanhood and femininity. they've created it, right that second. they invented it just now. it wasn't a problem before somebody complained, right? also trans women aren't braindead zombies who just follow the flow of whatever cis women around them say. I am pretty fucking sure they are very much aware of pain, and are MORE than aware of the swirling torrent of misogyny and standards of femininity than anybody else. actually. and I am pretty sure someone complaining on tumblr that being a woman means always putting on a performance is going to make someone change their mind about transitioning. also "performing femininity" as a necessity to being treated well as a woman is not fucking NEWS to your Local Trans Woman. I AM PRETTY SURE SHE GETS THE CONCEPT. using trans women as a scapegoat for this braindead perspective on gender politics is spineless, meritless, and pathetic.

#how I feel about my gender is not the same as how I feel about the living conditions of my gender #when I saw that post I screenshotted here I literally sat w my mouth open for a minute #sent it to my friends and was like am I fucking crazy. is this what we're doing now #Forced Positivity and that there is no war in ba sing se and actually #you're ruining children's lives if you complain about misogyny on twitter #I don't HAVE to tell little girls about the downsides because they are already being mistreated #before they have even heard the word 'misogyny' let alone know what it means #you do not have to be fucking happy all the time about the cards you're dealt. #you don't live in a bubble where it's just you and your mirror and your pretty dress and nothing bad has ever happened to you #unfortunately bitch. we will have negative experiences that are in fact. part of the package of being a woman #and IGNORING them doesn't make them not exist. actually they will continue to remain status quo unless acknowledged #sergle.txt #I see so much rhetoric that is JUST old-fashioned gender ideals being presented with liberal language on tiktok #that is just telling women that womanhood is just being a girllll and loving pretty things and being kind and gentleeeee and nurturing #and not working and just like being wholesome and being happy and being a light in ppl's lives and just LOVING LOVING LOVING being a woman #so if for even one second. you don't love it. you are actually failing at being a woman #if you complain about the standards for shaving or putting on makeup. which used to be Baby's First Feminism online #that's actually just you creating problems. you're not supposed to acknowledge it. you're supposed to shut up and smile into the mirror.

Okay idk if you take requests/suggestions (if not just ignore) but fem!Neuvilette x arlecchino being her regular girlboss self would be so cool

Seeing as Neuvi is trans but hasn't physically transitioned, if I made him fem he'd look exactly the same as he always does ;;;___;;;

#asks #he already wears makeup has a pretty face and has birthing hips in my art #would a genderbent neuvi just me mtf or would he simply be his birth gender

I love how i have pointless headcanons about gregorys transness because his whole ggy era got twisted around to me thinking about how hes trans and how that might connect with his time glitchtrapped especially since he was referred to with fem terms (in other languages but shhhhh let me have this) and how his recovery period of taking back his life could include reclaiming his gender and hitting that "tboy enough to fuck with gender without being scared of being misgendered" type thing and thats why i find any headcanons of him wearing skirts/makeup/nailpolish or other traditionally feminine things so so so special

#like i think a lot about him being a stranger in his own body #he acts like himself and talks like himself but sometimes just isnt himself #and the way the therapists use fem terms and the discomfort that could bring #but he cant do much because its not him #and he end up not remembering a good chunk of his life #everything has been taken from him #but even before that #he had to cut his own hair and everything and he still didnt get to keep his own fucking name because someone else stood in his place #and pretended to be him #but its not him #and idk how this truly connects to transness but i resonated with it #and i think in his goal to truly heal from everything #it include a massive fuck yo to that rabbit and society #he'll wear skirts and makeup and do what he wants because nobody controls him. not a rabbit and certainly not societys perception of gender #does this make sense #i think abt trans gregory a lot its canon to me #tzu rambles

I feel like it's a little cringey to say "Yeah Good Omens helped me figure out my gender identity" but like. It gave me the concept of being able to look like *gender* and use that gender's pronouns and be mostly cool with being perceived as that gender, but not actually be that gender.

Like occasionally I might feel a little bit like a girl (but never like a woman) but most of the time I'm agender, and I think there's a lot of pressure in the queer community to present a certain way or use different pronouns if you're anywhere on that spectrum. And it's totally awesome that that works for a lot of people. But I always kind of felt like if I'm cool looking like a girl and using she/her then I couldn't claim any kind of gender fuckery.

But Crowley and Aziraphale both (usually) look like men and use male pronouns but aren't actually men? Oh cool, I can do that? Good to know.

#i mean i certainly don't look like a FEMININE girl but i do wear makeup and all that #people just think I'm a tomboy or a punk and I've always been ok with that #as long as I'm not being sexualized i don't care how people perceive me #but if gender was a buffet I'd take a tiny bite of girl and say yeah no thank you to a full serving #good omens #my hatred of the word woman has always been a ??? to me like i am SO uncomfortable being called a woman #i don't identify as a man but I'm even cool with being called that #just the word woman makes me feel gross #so that's some kind of hangup i have #unfortunately I'm Old so that's probably how a lot of people perceive me #can't win 'em all i guess

"the new clawdeen just isnt as fierce as she used to be-" to YOU. to me he's butch but you guys arent ready for that conversation

#aimed at g3 haters or even just yall who keep restyling clawdeen without her glasses and putting her in miniskirts and shit #like youre trying to revert him back to g1 :/ #like i love g1 clawdeen but g3 clawdeen is a different character entirely and it feels like some of you dont respect that #also before the real butches come at me i know g3 clawdeen doesn't really look butch cause she still wears makeup and heels #and skirts sometimes #but hear me out: her and like jade and ruby from rh are about as butch as mainstream fashion dolls get #g3 clawdeen isnt like stone butch or anything but her gender is very interesting if you view her as a stud #and i think hes just undeniably more masculine than g1 clawdeen #g1 clawdeen dabbled in butch swag here and there #but g3 clawdeen wears like big chunky sneakers and has unruly hair and thick eyebrows and has almost no releases where shes wearing a skirt #monster high #g3 monster high #clawdeen wolf #dollblr #evilmartin430.txt

venting in tags about gender n shit (long as hell) (u can comment and talk 2 me as always :3)

#okay so i got a really masc haircut about a month ago and i know it's just a haircut but holy shit has it changed EVERYTHING for me #like.... i've always leaned masc except 1) before i came out 2) when i was actively in love with someone who i knew liked femmes #and they always described me as a fem. because that's what i showed her. because i wanted to be with her. #but lowkey whenever i'm in a not-impressing-anyone raw-dogging-life-no-crush era i always resort to a very masc style #like masc being my default and i'd only lean fem to impress people whether it's for love or peer pressure in a specific setting #like ''dressing up'' has always been a form of drag to me. like something i HAD to do to fit in or impress my parents (scott favor core) #but ever since this haircut i've realized... i could just BE masc innately like i really don't have to be womanly if i don't want to #which i usually don't. again i have only ever dressed fem for other people. but it's not even being masc that attracts me on its own #it's like. being masc in a distinctly lesbian way. as in whenever i look in the mirror i don't wanna be like a Guy i wanna be a dyke. #like lesbian as a gender identity too sort of thing honestly. okay i've been waffling but basically i sort of want to call myself butch #but i don't know if i like... can?? if i'm allowed to??? #everyone always says it's MORE than just wearing boy clothes and not wearing makeup and having short hair (which i already do all those) #i mean i've always id'd as genderqueer because it literally just means gender weird and i experience gender in a queer way #what's probably the most telling is that my friends (all queer) CALL me a butch lesbian #like every time they do i feel really internally validated. it's not just my clothes but my personality too ig is what people tell me #i have a higher pitched voice relatively speaking but apparently the way i talk is quote ''very clockably into women'' #which?? gender euphoria asf. my best friend specifically he (gay trans guy) always uses butch to describe me very intuitively #people have also noticed that i ''transitioned'' in all aspects except hormonally. like ppl have commented and noticed my masculinzation #but at the same time i always feel rly haunted by my ex relationships because one wanted me to be more masc #(she's the one who came out as straight and would treat me like a man) which i didn't like and i didn't like playing up being fem either #bc now it feels like she (butch) won't believe me if i called myself butch too bc she remembers me being femme #idk i feel like there's her voice in my head all the time that sees everything i do through her eyes (i'm lowkey still in love) #i feel like even though this comes so naturally to me i must be putting on a performance #even though i've actually read stone butch blues and done research into the history and i truly love and id with the culture like i rly do #that im still just a sad imitation of a butch lesbian and can never really be a part of it because i used to enjoy dressing up sometimes #like it's so stupid but can i still be butch if i wore a dress to prom and i think i looked good in it?? #even though i was envious of my friends who wore suits?? that i used to try goth makeup?? that i liked long dresses?? #that i enjoyed stacked necklaces and rings on every finger??? #and tbh ALL OF THAT CAME FROM A CONCIOUS EFFORT TO FEMINIZE MYSELF IN JUNIOR YEAR OF HIGHSCHOOL WHEN I WAS 16 #because omfg it was 2 months before junior prom and i was worried that i was too masc and wanted to get comfortable with being fem

something about finding the people who sit through your info dumps with joy on their face and enthusiasm for your passions. something about finding the people who info dump right back at you because they know you love hearing about their passions. something about finding the people who manage to sum up your being in one niche, oddly specific sentence that lives in your mind rent free for the rest of time. something about finding the people who not only accept you for who you are but embrace you for who you are. who not only tolerate your quirks and differences but love and cherish them.

#i’m in my feels today if you couldn’t tell #just thinking about one friend in particular who i don’t get to see in person nearly enough but i text all the time #idk it’s the little things #the way we send each other videos of ourselves explaining whatever we’re learning about right now #the way we don’t write it in a long message because the emotion and vibes don’t translate properly #the way he’s told me that the way i dress is so gender nonconforming in his eyes #how even though i’m afab and i wear glittery makeup and crop tops and have pink hair #i still look so queer and so gnc and so Not Girl in his eyes #how that felt so validating #how i could feel the genuine love in his words #how he told me once that i’m ‘not a person with lore but rather a person with a schtick’ #and how he explained to me what my schtick was and how accurate it was #how he told me he can’t wait for me to get my degree(s) and be an openly queer person in stem #how he can’t wait for me to defend my thesis sometime in the future and be wearing the brightest makeup and the biggest earrings #and the tallest boots #how he loves that i go to my chem lab every week with glitter on my eyes #how it’s cool that i don’t care if i stick out like a sore thumb because i’m me #i remember how he dropped the she/her pronouns immediately upon ne saying i didn’t really vibe with them #(even when they were still technically on my list of ‘ok to use pronouns’) #how his boyfriend who i don’t know very well has always they/them-ed me because my friend does #and if my friend is doing it then it must be the right thing #idk i just love my friends #and this friend in particular is someone i’ve gotten really close with over the past 6 months or so #and i’m so glad to have him in my life #platonic love #friendship #tell your friends you love them

Cis femme she/her lesbian but in a stoner dudebro frat boy loser kind of way

#does this make sense #like yeah i wear a shit ton of jewelry and makeup and i like dresses and have long-ass hair and my favorite color is pink but #i lowkey get gender euphoria from wearing men's clothes and cologne and acting specifically like some loser dude #like smacking my partner's ass and drinking beer and talking all ''fuuuck dude. sheeeeyit'' like i just hit a joint. lmfaoo #sometimes i just love wearing gym shorts and a wifebeater or a big-ass ugly t-shirt and no make-up and calling myself some dude #idk why it HAS to be a loser of a man but nothing gives me gender envy like Just Some Guy smoking a cig outside a college party #with like a beer and a beanie and ripped jeans and a shitty old hoodie and he has big-ass bags under his eyes. a line cook dude #that's literally me sorry #if i were to be any other kind of lesbian it would be rue from euphoria 1000000%. she is my exact gender #oh and kurt cobain also gives me gender envy lmao #personal #gender #gender identity #lesbian #butch #femme #wlw #adventures in gender
