As an afab enby person, I’m tired of the reactions I get to growing my hair out. No I’m not detransitioning, and no I’m not “embracing my femininity”. I’m growing my hair out to be more like Jonathan Sims. Nothing else.

Just thinking about how I often avoid saying I'm afab in online spaces (where people can't automatically "tell" from looking at me like they can in person) because I'm nb and find the stereotype of all nb people being afab or just "women-lite" so horribly uncomfortable that I'm almost ashamed at times of being afab even though it shapes my identity and experiences

friendly reminder that you naturally weight more during your period, so you don’t have to get scared if you see the number go up, it’ll go down once your period passes!!

i got my period today and i had to go back to the bathroom after i just went, to get a pad, and someone noticed and asked why on my way back, and i had to say i was on my period (something along those lines) and then i started crying as soon as i got to the bathroom because gender dysphoria fucking sucks

I have personally spoken about transandrophobia,,,, once. ONCE in the entire history of this blog, aside from reblogging a post or two. I have been utterly silent.
I grew up hating men and masculinity for trauma reasons. I still feel actively unsafe in male dominated spaces. Fuck, I’m even kinda scared of butch lesbians. These are all things I’m unlearning and actively work to heal from. So I get it. I do. You see a transmasc person who has medically transitioned and you don’t see how they can possibly be treated differently to cis men.
But if the fact that I, a pre-t non-passing transmasc nonbinary, can’t even express sadness that I feel excluded from my LOCAL community without literally being called names and cussed out isn’t proof enough that we’re treated differently idk what is. As if being “largely unseen by bigots” is at all a blessing or even fucking true. It’s the same mindset as aphobia and biphobia — that just because we’re able to hide a little better in some cases proves that we don’t have it as bad.
All trans people are fucking oppressed, yes. We all deserve equal resources and say within this community.
You can’t literally tell us constantly that we’re oppressed differently (or not oppressed at all????) and then be mad when we make our own words and lines of awareness to bring attention to that difference.
We’re not tearing the community apart. We’re not “whiny transmisogynistic bitches” (interesting use of a largely feminine insult 🤔)
Transmasc people are not your scapegoat. Stop turning your hatred inward — don’t let the real enemy use your self-loathing to tear us apart. All we’re asking for is recognition and support.

Question to any trans folk who find this. (Or anyone who can help)
I'm questioning and looking in the mirror kills me. (I'm AFAB). Part of me feels so wrong when I hear my name or see my body. It makes me want to cry. Idk if i should go to doctors because my mom isn't the richest, and my dad isn't transphobic exactly, but im scared to talk to him about it. To make it worse, I'm in Florida, and I'm scared what could happen to me or my parents if I tried to talk to therapists or doctors about it. I don't own binders, and I'm too scared to try other methods. I'm scared and I really need support. The internet and my mom are the only reliable support I have in this

Thoughts I have about CHB as an afab girl
If a demigod gets their period at camp how does that work? Does the same gift shop that has the orange shirts also have sanitary products?? From what I remember it should have everything that is necessarily hygiene related.
then again a few demigods might just stop having their period bc of training like if they train too hard, that wouldn't last forever probably but yeah
Do they have bras at camp?? I guess that's probably a thing kids would usually do when it's not the summer huh but like what about annabeth where did she get bras. Did like another camper give her the first one? That would be so sweet tbh and if they have them at the gift shop, she would prob at least need help choosing one
Why are all the camp shirts the same gd color I hate orange sm at least have some pink ones lmao
The aphrodite kids have definitely complained about that before. Why orange. Why did Rick choose orange. Ew.
If you are sharing a cabin esp if you have sisters how the hell are you keeping track of your shirts if they're all the same damn color
This is more of a statement than a question but i think itd be cute if like the first time one of the girls has a period on the Argo II boat they send one of the boys to go get stuff and he brings back like 15 boxes of things bc he panicked
Logically they could probably just send 1 girl along with but I think that the first thing is funnier
Hair ties
How the hell do you keep track of your hair ties
On quests the girls are probably using everything they can find to tie up their hair
stealing Leo's zipties and shit
Except for Annabeth who has been doing this long enough to know how many to bring and then some but she will share only sparingly
The girls were also probably taking only one or two bras for the entire trip
The demigods can't afford to care abt cramps and that must suck

How tf do afab people go to work with period pains? Genuine question, help me out because this is unbearable. Pills don't work, nothing works and I'm supposed to be painting a 2m × 2m wall, while I feel like my uterus is gonna explode...

Ftm thoughs.
If bendage is supposed to go around what needs to be fixed I'd become a mummy.
My lungs can't take this pressure, the air running away, searching for a place with more space to exist. I wish I could do the same and find a place where I don't need to compress myself.
Bendage is suppouse to heal, but my ribs have started to break and my heart to sink since I know that the price of a deep breath is higher of what I'm willing to give.
