#queer people please interact

[textk4kira]

No group of trans people has inherent power/privilege over another group of trans people.

Trans men are not your oppressors.

Trans women are not your oppressors.

Nonbinary people, regardless of AGAB, are not your oppressors.

It is important to interrogate your own biases towards your fellow trans people.

Oftentimes, a decent place to start would be to make friends with Other trans people. You'll probably find that you have much more in common with them then you realize.

I'm a transmasc demigirl, if you'd like to know more about our community and my experiences, please feel free to leave a comment, send a dm or send an ask.

the thing i think most chronically online queer people don't get is that yes there are femininity enforcers in terfblr, yes they show themselves when confronted with "too intense" nonconformity, and no - most of us don't tolerate their bigotry even as many of us will have reblogged good posts from them prior and even as many of us will continue to reblog from them either because another useful post or because we just aren't aware because we don't obsessively stalk one another like that

#terfblr #radblr #radical feminists please touch #radical feminists do touch #radical feminists please interact #radical feminists do interact #terfsafe #it's that ''i aint following or endorsing all of your ideas but i'll endorse this post of yours'' #which - chronically online queer people only and specifically allot such approach to males

[ID: a banner that's a pale magenta color, with a cropped he/him lesbian flag in the left corner. Black text sits beside the cropped flag, saying 'this blog is a safespace for he/him lesbians' end ID]

[ID: a bluish, slightly darker shade of lavender, with black text reading 'this blog is a safespace for she/her gays'. A cropped she/her gay flag can be seen on the left side of the text. End ID]

I tried my hand at making banner things, lol. Feel free to use if for some reason you like these janky ass banners that took about five minutes each. /lh

credit is appreciated but not necessarily needed, as these were made for fun.

Just saw a post by @/mscl*ritea saying drag queens arnt a marginalised group and are “just employees”, while also saying trans is a cult amoung other awful and baffling things after Kevin Bacon voiced support for drag queens on his social media.

Anyway, reblog or reply if you think drag queens are more than just “employees” and deserve a place in the lgbt+ community!

Saying this for the 100th time here but some of you are so out of touch from reality when you make your "it's okay to be straight!!! It's okay to be a man!!!" posts like I get it there can be some context or exceptions to this but most of the times it's just people thinking straight people or men are somehow being oppressed cause the people they have oppressed for an eternity are speaking their truth loudly online now

And no, you don't get to take the defense that people feel bad about themselves when they read these things because the real world still fucking favours y'all. You don't have to sob in your bathroom for hours and hide your whole life away from your family from a young age. Y'all still don't care about queer kids, especially queer girls who never find any comfort anywhere except that small family they created online. I'll take you feeling bad any day over another girl feeling trapped in this society cause no matter what she does, she will always feel inferior or another queer person having to take their secret to their deathbed

Get a grip, touch some grass. You are not oppressed because a 16yr old said they hate men or made a joke about how being straight is actually awful. Y'all have said worse shit to us for centuries now. "Learn to take a joke :)"

#and yes I know some of these posts are in context of trans men which is totally fucking fine #i get that #I'm not talking about those posts #I just think y'all should maybe interact with real life people more #i really hate when people say ''oh hate is a two way street'' PLEASE #like some jokes by queer people or women will ever match up to what straight people and men do everyday to us #reminds me of that bs someone said about how its awful that queer people joke about straight people and how its a hate crime 💀💀 #yeah sure that joke totally compares to actual hate crimes against queer people

my favourite irony of the current shipping discussion is the folks who allege WolfWren enjoyers sent “threats” to people who enjoy cishet ships (I have asked for ANY examples or usernames of anyone doing this multiple times), have also been calling for Filoni to suffer & die if he doesn’t make their ship canon. but don’t forget, it’s definitely the sapphics and queers who like WolfWren that are the problem

#queer nbs & women get harassed for MONTHS by sabezra stans: [complete silence & all the major sabezra blogs still interact with those folks] #wolfwren gets a little love from the cast: “UMMM ACTUALLY THIS SHIP WAR IS SO TOXIC NOW AND THE WOLFWRENS ARE THE PEOPLE THREATENING OTHERS #are there wolfwren fans that suck? probably. & if you would like us to do something about it please give us examples and show us who #so we can make sure we aren’t supporting ANYONE sending threats and hate. #I’ve even seen wolfwren shippers giving sabezra shippers advice on blocking IPs + turning on stronger privacy settings #but where the fuck were Sabezra shippers when other Sabezra stans were talking about rape + murder + abuse in queer peoples posts? #I have about more than 20 examples of disgusting vile HATE (actual hate & not “haha RIP this ship) that I’ve been directly sent #multiple wolfwren fic writers have had to turn off their comments on fics because of homophobic hate #artists have been getting dumb shitty homophobic comments on their wolfwren art with “gay garbage!!! Sabezra of life!!!” #and I’m not seeing anyone calling out sabezras as a whole for being bad toxic people (which no one should because they aren’t) #do you understand & feel the hypocrisy now? #I have no doubt there are “mean” WolfWren fans that are saying silly shit like “hahah we won” and “our ship is better” #and yeah! That’s mean. HOWEVER it is not fucking harassment or the same as “fuck this LGBT shit” #and it’s wrong that queer sabezra stans are being harassed too- there is way too much biphobia & homophobia in this whole fucking fandom #but let’s not act like being called homophobic is the same as suffering under homophobia #and let’s not forget that queer people are capable of being homophobic themselves by perpetuating harm #thank you for coming to my TEDtalk #text

toy/house users dont understand how dnis work i think

#one said dni if you like vore #another accused several very popular artists of being zoophiles and said dni if you look at these peoples art #one was more okay with christians interacting (and they didnt like them interacting) than people with complex queer identitiea #anyway i did not read your th dni grow up please #the only time i obey dnis is if smth specific applies to me and no one makes em specific enough

literally just saw some radfem bullshit on my dash, & then when I went to their blog to block them not only was it full of anti-trans half arguments & accusations of other people being childish, but one of the very first posts was about how a certain show would be better if one of the main characters was a young woman instead of an old man because they "don't like old people"

#there is no point to this other than i'm pissed and tired of having terf bullshit pass my dash #i feel like i'm gonna have to get that eye thing because i don't super vet the blogs i interact with casually #so as long as they're not immediately anti queer i usually don't notice #and then i've got fucking radfem shit in my 'based on your likes' feed #all because i interacted with feminism stuff that - without the anti-trans lens - seemed totally fine #& like terfs are already shitty people but i feel like the anti older person sentiment just further highlighted the fact that #terfs are just shitty hypocrytical people who play the 'poor me boo hoo you're all childish' card & act like they're so fucking superior #& that any trans folks are terrible #and then turn around and spout all kinds of bigotry #but it's okay i guess because they've got a vagina <3 (& experience the exact same kind of misogyny that tons of us do but they're special) #ALSO #I learned what 'moid' means and you guys are fucking assholes #men are not just mindless sex freaks you fucking cunts #& the fact that you think that just shows how warped your sense of the world is #you 'hate the patriarchy' but aren't interested in actually dismantling it #how could you when you don't even view half of the people involved as really human! #fuck off #terfs and radfems aren't welcome here and you can all kick rocks #i try my best for this to be a queer friendly space and i want that to be clear right fucking now #if anyone who follows me has bothered to read this please let me know if i've accidentally reblogged something from the 'drop the t' crowd #i am not the golden standard queer or whatever the fuck the term is #but i dont ever want someone to think that i'm part of that crowd

My identities!

I am a nonbinary femme (specifically I identify as a demifem), toric (nblm), gray-asexual, aegosexual and apothisexual.

I'm happy to explain any of these labels if anyone is interested. It may help someone to discover a label that resonates with them!

Mention gay people for one dollar

#radfems do interact #radfems please touch #radfem safe #radfem friendly #pride #grizzy posts #unless of course “queer sex” means gay sex #and if so why are we queer and trans people aren’t? all under the same umbrella until it comes to who gets called slurs and who doesn’t

⚠️trigger warning, violence mention⚠️

Thinking about the time I had an exclusionist reblog my post to tell me that queer people are dying, and then they proceeded to yell at me for being an mspec lesbian. 💀

They were unwittingly admitting that there are more important issues than somebody's identity, while trying to invalidate my identity lmfao. I suppose they thought it was some huge ‘gotcha’ moment, cuz ooh I'm so selfish for expressing my distress toward mspec lesbians such as myself being crucified for calling themselves lesbians, while people are facing REAL issues! Give me a break.

I know queer people face acts of violence, and mspec les/gays saying ‘hey guys, we'd like to be allowed labels and spaces too’ isn't in any way invalidating that. Exclusionists need to get over themselves.

#also not to mention how weird and low-key fucked up it is to use the deaths of queer people against somebody's identity #something tells me that they actually don't care about those deaths cuz if they did they wouldn't weaponize them #it's just... so weird and gross to me idk. It rubs me the wrong way #exclusionists are dumb #mspec lesbian #lesbian #rad inclus #critinclus #queer #lgbtq #lgbt #lgbtqiia+ #Oh boy I can't wait for an exclus to interact despite me having them in my DNI #/sarc if that wasn't obvious. Having someone interact with your stuff against your wishes is annoying asf in the very least #it's like wow dude do you not have the capacity to be a decent human being #or do you not know how to keep your mouth shut and your nose out of places where you aren't welcome? #they're like... nats tbh #annoying asf like I don't care what you think lesbianism is 'SUPPOSED' to be Rebecca please leave

Can you please not use the word f*ggot if you’re not a gay man?

no but you can kiss my fag ass

#anon #asks #please interact with a real life queer community with people over the age of 30. i’m begging you. #you should see my main 😭😭 it’s used as a term of endearment for every member of my chem on there 😭 #also i’m a bisexual man*. like. this ask feels like very obvious transphobia.

A Discussion on Christianity and Islam, and How Critiquing Said Religions is Perceived in the Western World: by a Queer Person Raised in a Muslim Country

DISCLAIMER: I do not mean to offend the followers of any religion. I myself am religious, albeit neither Muslim nor Christian, and understand the importance of religion. I do not mean to insult anyone.

So with this whole fiasco of "Anonymous Sudan" taking down AO3, I think people know by now that it was a ploy to get people to be islamophobic by making the world think they hate the LGBTQ+ community. And it got me thinking about my own experiences as a queer person oppressed under Islam.

Now, obviously, if you are a Muslim or Christian reading this, I want to say right here that if you are accepting of queer people, then this post is not about you.

I just want to discuss how often I see ex-Christians critiquing Christianity for how it is used as a tool to oppress marginalized communities, and how this discussion is normalized/destigmatized in Western circles. Critique of Christianity is unproblematic in the East too, as it's a critique of a foreign religion, so no one really cares.

However, as someone who has been oppressed under Islam, who has been told that I am going to hell for being queer and that the Qur'an forbids my existence, I feel very isolated that there is no platform to talk about my experience without being accused of islamophobia.

I'm not islamophobic. My two closest friends are devout Muslims. I got lucky enough to see the beauty of Islam through them, but that doesn't change the fact that I still was traumatized by the religion.

In Muslim countries such as mine, I could be imprisoned for making this post. People have been killed for less here. But I need to talk about how in any society where religion is considered to be the most important thing there is, people will be oppressed by that religion.

Christians did it in the West (and most of the world, thanks to colonization), but Muslims are doing this in many Eastern countries. And I hate that unlike ex-Christians, I cannot be angry at the God and His people that traumatized me without being accused of islamophobia.

I'm not going to pretend that I love Islam in its entirety. It has beautiful facets, but of course I harbour resentment towards the religion. Of course I am angry. I deserve to exist and I hate that this religion was forced on me the way that it was whilst I was growing up.

Again, I mean no hate to any Muslims. Many are actually amazing people. But many are not. I was suffocated by Islam growing up, and I have no space to talk about it on any platform, which is just further intensifying my resentment.

In conclusion, this whole disjointed rant was just a way for me to say that there needs to be a space for ex-Muslims to safely talk about their negative experiences with the religion. Americans call Evangelicals a cult, and it is in quite a similar vein that Muslims in certain countries are. Muslims in the East are intolerant of any discussion against Islam and Westerners accuse you of islamophobia the minute you start talking (or else they're right-wingers who want you to call Muslim people terrorists).

If any Muslim people want to contribute to the conversation, my DMs are open, my askbox is open, reply to this post, reblog, put in the tags, whatever. If you want to discuss this, please do. I would genuinely love to hear what you have to say.

Shout out to all cishet polyams out there you’re 100% queer and belong in the community as much as any gay trans person

#polyamory is queer and polyamorous people are queer and if you disagree then please never interact with my blog in any capacity

[hecksupremechips]

I don’t wanna jinx myself or anything but sigh. I think it’s officially something I want. It’s time for me to talk about fixing the persona 4 group dynamics to not be so uncomfortable 😩

Main things I’ve decided just by thinking it out:

The perspectives may change but I want it to start with Naoto. It’d take place after the events of the game and he has a bunch of pent up frustration over being outed to the group when he never wanted that. It’d be putting up with constant teasing that he must be into Kanji, being included as a girl in the group, and being made to dress feminine that pushes him over the edge. I think he’d have an angry re coming out scene to Kanji after getting in a spat with the group

I want Kanji and Naoto to both confess their feelings of invalidation from the group and also for them to feel like they can be honest about their true selves around each other. They’re like each other’s safe spaces

The two of them sorta allow themselves to feel more hostile towards the group after letting out their emotions to each other and it becomes apparent. Chie and Yukiko are the ones to reach out and they prove to be pretty understanding. They’re also secretly dating and Yukiko is also trans cuz I say so

The four of them talk out their feelings and Chie and Yukiko want to stand up to the others more. For Teddie and Rise they’re mostly just making teasing remarks that can be hurtful without intending to, like suggesting that Naoto and Kanji like each other. For Yosuke I think I’d have Chie maybe confront him in a bit more firm manner and have her threaten to break off their friendship if he doesn’t stop being an ass. It takes time but he does get his shit together. He apologizes to Kanji in particular and confesses that he’s confused about his own sexuality and was projecting it onto the other. Their relationship will probably still be rocky but at least the apology will be out there

Cuz I’m a bastard I want there to be some Naoto x Rise shit there. I like the idea of Rise being straight and Naoto having a bit of a crush on her but feeling hopeless after being outed and being treated as "one of the girls" be Rise. And they can then talk it out when Naoto comes out again and they both begin to like each other better and form a stronger relationship, and they have feelings for each other. This particular concept means a lot to me okay do look at me

A cute concept to me is Naoto being like "I don’t really like being a part of a lot of the girly activities I’m invited to" and Kanji’s like "okay man I’ll just go in your place" and he has fun makeover montage and has fun. Naoto can still hang out of course but just doesn’t wanna participate in the feminine stuff much. Also Chie being more butch 👍

I’m still deciding what I’d do with Yosuke in particular and whether or not he’d still be friends with Kanji and Naoto at the end. Either way I would want him to change his ways and accept himself better, and still be close with Chie and Yukiko

This is something I’ll make either tomorrow or never 🤪

#persona #persona 4 #trans naoto #p4 #theres so much i could tag this as but ehhhh whatever too lazy #naoto shirogane #kanji tatsumi #those are the main 2 characters thatd need the attention so yeah ill just tag them #i think the main thing that holds me back from doing this idea sooner is that interacting with p4 makes me so genuinely upset #but idk for some reason it just felt right to at least share the ideas #plus uh. kanji and naoto are really fun to draw ahdjsks #if this sees the light of day by people who arent assholes about queer characters please share youre thoughts 👀
