for the little guys

to all newly out or questioning queer kids/people who are struggling with internalized queerphobia of any/every kind, or just queerphobia from other people…

be yourself. even if it’s hard, even if it makes you cry sometimes at night, even if it takes you a while until you can fully accept it or be in a place surrounded by those who love and accept you for you, BE YOURSELF.

it gets better. it gets easier. it’s worth it. you’ll have those low moments quite a lot, but buddy, you’re gonna miss out on yourself and the life you want if you don’t take that leap.

you being you is perfect. you being you is enough. you being you is not wrong. you being you is okay. you are not going to hell. you are not committing a sin. you being you is incredible.

you’re gonna have euphoria. you’re gonna meet your goals. you’re gonna find queer friends. you’re gonna build an accepting family for yourself.

it. gets. better.

and you’re valid. you’re valid for however you may experience your labels. you’re valid even before you can look masculine/feminine/neutral/preferred. you’re valid even if you can’t date girls/boy/people yet. you’re valid even if you’re in a relationship and are discovering these things about yourself. you’re valid even if you haven’t dated anyone before. you’re valid even if you did have crushes in the past. you’re valid. you’re valid. you’re valid. you’re valid, simply by being you.

you’re valid. and it gets better.

don’t deny yourself from being yourself.

IT GETS BETTER !!!!

i wish i could prove this without violating someone's privacy and getting in trouble for it but one of my co-workers who is very.. uhh. let's just call him ignorant for now, changed his last name legally from his birth dad's last name to his step dad's last name because of family drama that is none of your business. His first name is super common and is shared with 2 other people here so we call all 3 of them by their last names and over the last 6 months while everyone was continuing to call him his birth name (because, look, honestly, it really is difficult to adjust to changing someone's name you've all but carved into stone in your mind and memory) I have gone on a pissing-people-off-by-correcting-them crusade. It was hard for me too, but I changed the habit, and so everyone else can too. He doesn't even really care if others adjust to it, it was a personal issue and if everyone else continued to call him by his birth surname it wouldn't affect him because legally it's different and that's what matters, but to me names matter so I correct people and had all of his work credentials painstakingly changed even amongst opposition from higher ups. And it's not even strictly on the principle of contemporary transgender issues, names have always been very very important to me before I was even aware transgender people existed (i live in the southern us, not my fault), but I'll be god-damned if I didn't risk my job and health to bitch and complain DIRECTLY in favor transgender issues because of it. After over 6 months of making whole rooms uncomfortable with loud interruptions, hands slamming on tables, and direct eye contact correcting people from referring to this long time coworker from name 1 to name 2 and this same motherfucker tells me today he doesn't get why a transgender person (not the term he used) thinks they can "force" others to call them by a girl's name just because they think they're a girl (same for trans men and boy names but that wasn't his specific rhetoric)

just imagine this.. imagine someone saying something that is ignorant, not specifically hateful just.. they don't get it, they don't get it in a way that has unfairly bred hate and they don't see it. they feel uncomfortable and due to that discomfort they say this stupid thing and

everyone at the table just stares at him quietly.

im probably the only leftist at the table, i think literally everyone else is a trump supporter, fox news loving, tucker carlson mentee and they all have endured my relentless lectures reminding them over and over to respect this man and his decision to change his name. they all see my effort swept under the rug by this utterly stupid comment because they want to agree with him, they really do, they hate "THE TRANS AGENDA" and YET they know they can't say anything because they have been made well aware by me for six mother-fucking months how this deadnaming issue has affected a cishet, how trans issues aren't an agenda and how they affect everyone. They rolled their eyes and called me names but they still have such a slight modicum of respect for me because of the experiences they've shared with me on the job site and my absurd work ethic that for 15 full seconds they see it now, they see what the FUCK I've been talking about. 15 seconds is so short but when 24 people suddenly go quiet and look at you, it becomes an eternity, and he felt that weight, and he said "oh" and everyone said "uh huh" and i hope it made just a little bit more fucking sense to everyone.

Why Trans Women are Not "Biological Males"

Jessie Gender You often hear the phrase “trans women are biological males” thrown around, mainly by those trying to discriminate against trans people. But aren’t trans people really just biologically male? Isn’t that “the whole point of being trans,” as some people say? Even trans-supportive people seem to agree on this point. Or, is it, as anti-trans people argue, that trans people do not…

Smack about Transphobia.

Smack is a mini podcast in which I try to tackle topics with common sense and logical reasoning, without bad intentions or ulterior motives. If a take happens to align with any political, religious or other kind of ideology, that is purely coincidental. It will inevitably upset someone, but please hear me out and remain civil.

Senator Rafael Edward Cruz of Texas has introduced a bill that would limit the use of preferred names by trans people. You might better recognize the senator by his preferred name of Ted Cruz

they won't ever stop. no matter how much we scream. no matter how many of us fall dead. no matter what we put in TV or books. we aren't humans to their understanding. we're savages, villains, deviants of God's order.

Perhaps it's time we start acting like it.

one thing that makes me mad is when english speakers says that the pronouns “ele”, “ela” and “elu” are invalid but these are pronouns in portuguese lol

like, they act like the english was the only lenguage in the world and that's sad

some pronouns in portuguese: (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

ElA - She / DelA - Her

ElE - He / DelE - Him

ELU or IlÊ - They (neopronoun) / DelU or DilÊ - them

ElEs, ElAs, ElUs, IlÊs - They

DelEs, DelAs, DelUs, Ilês - Them

some people (cof cof- north americans) pissed me off saying my pronouns are invalid but I use ele/ilê, what is, HE/THEM, but IN PORTUGUESE

um- sorry, i got mad but I'm ok now

btw, I'm from Brazil and no, we don't speak Spanish, and yes portuguese!!?!

(MY ENGLISH IS VERY BAD BYE)

Help a polish trans guy afford transitioning

Hey all! I'm Maksymilian, 19, from Poland. I'm trying to transiton, but money's tough and we don't earn a lot. Stuffs expensive. This is really important to me and I'm trying to save as much as possible, but it's just not doable. I'd be so thankful if you just shared this post. Thanks so much!

Also … a little off topic but I am not even sure I’m bisexual anymore because someone straight up asked me one day if I would date a transperson or non-binary person and I answered with a resounding “yes!” and they told me that I can’t be bisexual then because bisexual people are only attracted to male and female. And when I argued back and said that transpeople are male and female they said transpeople don’t count.

And I was confused as fuck. And also very irritated.

Transpeople are not male and female? What?!

See this is why I hate the term “transgender”. People act like it’s an entirely separate gender from male or female. But it’s not. It’s just the opposite gender from whatever the person was assigned as at birth.

So if they were assigned male, they’re now female.

This would still make me bisexual if I was attracted to them and dated them because they’re a female.

If they were assigned female, they’re now male.

This would still make me bisexual if I was attracted to them and dated them because they’re a male.

At what point are they separated from the binary of male and female? They’re not. They’ve transitioned.

I know on the bigger scale there’s more than the gender binary and it’s more of a spectrum. But if you personally and specifically identify as a gender, then you are that gender. No buts or ifs about it. Imagine telling a transperson that they’re not the gender they identify by or as because “transgender doesn’t count.”

The last time I checked transgender was very much of the binary of male and female because they are still one or the other depending on how they identify.

And if I dated a transgender person then I would very much still consider myself as a bisexual person because I’m not going to invalidate that they are the gender they identify by just because they’re not “male” or “female” in the eyes of transphobic people.

So yes, according to this person I was talking to I’m not bisexual. I’m pansexual because pansexuality includes being attracted to transgender and non-binary people. Yeah, that is very confusing to me. Maybe I would have to think on it more closely if I was dating a non-binary person because many non-binary people don’t like to be referred to as either “male” or “female”. But transgender people should count because all that’s happened is a transition from one end of the binary to the other end. It’s not separate. And the binary is still very much there even though there’s more to it than that. Even though there can be a spectrum and nothing is permanent and yeah. But don’t invalidate the male and female aspect to it because that doesn’t just insult people who are cisgender but it can also insult people who aren’t.

The changing of gender and sexuality together is headache all of its own. But don’t erase any of it.

But I have to ask… Is it actually true that if you’re attracted to somebody that doesn’t identify as the gender they were assigned as at birth and date them that you’re not bisexual? That seems wrong to me because that’s like saying they’re some other gender from the gender binary of male and female. And that’s just not true. Nor is it a very nice thing to hear. That you’re some other sexuality because you’re attracted to and dating a transperson. I don’t like that at all.

So if it’s true then I hope they reassess that principle.

And hang on a minute! What if I didn’t identify as bisexual? What if I identified as a lesbian/gay but I dated someone who transitioned from female to male? Would that mean I would remain a lesbian? Or would I now be bisexual because I am dating them? Or would I also have to transition gender just to justify it?

You see this is what happens when we put ourselves into categories and go strictly by ever-changing terms and definitions instead of the relevant experiences. We end up running rings around ourselves to try to fit into these specific boxes that are not even permanent. We attempt to change and adapt from what we are in the present to satisfy what we MIGHT be in the future.

And all because the alphabet soup says it’s so.

That’s backwards.

But people do it every day. Identify themselves by categories, terms and definitions and not by their subjective, personal and relevant experiences.

And you wonder why I think identity is bullshit.

No, it’s true that I do not like ignoring, invalidating or excluding minorities. But at the same time - I do not and will not do that to myself, as a minority, either.

Telling someone to kill themselves. You are abusive towards a trans man who was sexually abused yet you claim to care for women. You’re the most hateful women hating on women out there. You are not helping anyone by being so hateful and there is proof of this. You have no idea what someone has endured.

This is who defaults are; monsters. Oppressors. They are the Queen in Snow White, the Ursula in Little Mermaid, the vampires of the world.

They will not stop till all of us are dead and gone. They are not empathic. They do not care for people who are not them. Straight people are the scum of the earth. Diseases. Bloodsuckers. Felons and warmongers.

Be safe. Be violent. Be ANGRY.
