WIBTA for sending my parents my wedding pictures?
I should preface this by saying that I don't think I am TA, but I can see why I would be and am open to criticism. Also, I haven't done this yet.
I (call me N, 27mtf) am getting married to my wonderful girlfriend, P (27f) in a little over a month. This is something I have wanted to do since we were teenagers and I am beyond thrilled that I finally get to put a ring on her finger. I love her very much, and generally our relationship is very good.
For context, my parents are incredibly bigoted. Christian fundamentalist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, the whole deal. Actually, every single member of my family is like that (except for one of my sisters and a couple of cousins). As you can expect, our relationship is basically nonexistent at this point. (Except for said supportive sister and cousins, but they aren't involved in this story at all.) I have known P and P's family since before my transition, and they have all been amazing and accepting, and they really make me feel loved. My parents have this big wall in their house where they display wedding and baby photos for everyone even tangentially related to them.
I want to send my parents my wedding photos (when the wedding happens, obviously) for a couple of reasons.
Everyone else in my family does it. Me being a trans lesbian shouldn't mean I don't deserve my place on the wall.
Okay, this is the main reason. My parents and their friends are both homophobic and transphobic, and are very concerned about "what the neighbors think". I want to put them in an uncomfortable situation. If they do display the pictures, it will look like they support a wedding between two women (we both will be wearing dresses, and I pass pretty well). But if they don't display the pictures, it will be like they are acknowledging that I am a girl, something they have refused to do. I want to put them in a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. I think it would be funny. Plus, I genuinely have no idea which option they'll choose, and I'm curious. Sue me.
I told P about my plans, and while she doesn't like my parents (in fact, she hates them for how bigoted they are and what they did to me when I came out, but that's a whole different story), she think that this is a real asshole thing to do, and that I shouldn't put them in a situation they are incapable of winning. She said that I should be the bigger person, and that since I haven't talked to them since I was eighteen and they aren't even invited to the wedding, I shouldn't do this.
However, come on, they've been downright cruel to me ever since I told them I was trans, I think they deserve this and quite a bit more. Plus, I genuinely do feel a little kernel of hurt at the idea of who I am and who I'm marrying meaning that I don't deserve to be on that wall with everyone else.
So, Tumblr, WIBTA?

{I saw this post about neopronouns and that sort of spiraled off into me thinking about how my religious community used to take trans people and that sort of spiraled off into me thinking about how Haruto would have handled all of that so long story short I'm going off again.}
{Trigger Warning for: religious talk, religion, transphobia, transphobic ideals, hate speech, gender dysphoria, aaand all the stuff wrapped up in that. You ask me to tag anything else you need me to.}
✥ I'm sure you've heard the line of thinking before: "God doesn't make mistakes, so how could they be in the wrong body?" Haruto believes this question to be absolutely ridiculous, and he answers every time without hesitation: "They aren't in the wrong body, you're just an asshole who felt the need to oppress them with your idea of what they should be."
✥ Additionally, he has the capacity to clarify: "You wouldn't shun a church for adding on a building or tearing down a section to make room for better facilities. You wouldn't shun someone for cutting or styling their hair. So why the hell would you shun someone for curating their body to better accommodate the soul within it? These things are entirely between God and the individual. If it wasn't meant to be, they wouldn't be able to go through with it. These are major image and life changes a person must take to better accommodate themselves, and if it's alright for a church to alter their vessels for God, there is nothing wrong with a person altering the temple of their body for themselves."
✥ Furthermore, Haruto absolutely would be the person to take neopronouns very very seriously, regardless of what that is. If someone tells him to call him something that might seem outlandish to other parties, he won't even bat an eyelash and just switch to those pronouns immediately.
✥ He may, however, judge the individual in question for their chosen pronouns. "Your Highness? What kind of medieval nonsense is this? Cocky, but alright." Or "Pineapple? Pineapples aren't even the best fruit. If it were me I would have gone with pomegranate, but whatever. It's your gender, I suppose."

Spreading the awareness:
Thor: Love and Thunder includes a transphobic joke that I think is just a little too demeaning to fall within the bounds of acceptable humor.
It’s basically a scene when Thor has a back-and-forth argument with (someone he knows who previously went by a female name), over the fact that the individual is now going by a male name.
I think they were going for a touch of that “caveman Thor” who wins battles without thinking. He’s not too concerned about the aftermath of his actions.
Later in the film, we do see Thor calling the person by their preferred name, and the narrator refers to the person as the “son of -some important Asgardian person.”
The whole thing is easy to miss during a casual viewing of the film, but… it made me hella uncomfortable. Watiti? Feige? Disney? I truly thought all of them were a little broader of mind and aware of the evolution of social etiquette.
I mean, for someone who uses Guns n Roses Sweet Child of Mine as the theme for the goat-powered vehicle bursting through the glass walls of the temple on their own floating rainbow— that’s genius.
But— the film’s a wreck. It is what it is.
I am not interested in writing down this rabbit hole (or any of the characters/films canonically after Endgame.) I like my Steve. I like my continuity. I’m happy to be entertained by more space Vikings, so long as they are not continuously disrespectful.

Say their name.
CW AND TW: CHILD DEATH
Say.
Tumblr media
Their.
Tumblr media
Name.
Tumblr media
Nex Benedict was a indigenous trans nonbinary teenager. Their head was beaten against the floor in a bathroom stall. Less than 24 hours later, they died, most likely from undiagnosed head trauma. Conservatives say they want to, "protect the children", where was the protection for Nex? That's the thing. There wasn't any. Nex died. And many more trans, queer, and nonbinary minors will if we don't step up and do something. What happened to Nex has and will happen to queer folk around the globe. Say their name.
Edit: I didn't expect this to get much attention, but thank you everyone. What alot of people, "forget" to mention was that Nex was two spirited, which means they were indigenous. The fact that I wouldn't have heard about this if I didn't have Tumblr is absolutely revolting. News needs to be covering this. But what are Republicans doing? Sucking their thumbs and crying about how, "trans people shouldn't be able to piss". What are Democrats doing? Twiddling their thumbs and groveling to an old geezer that somehow falls up the stairs and supports I$r3@l. It's disgusting and America needs to do better.
Edit 2: Any and all hate/saying that Nex Benedict wasn't murdered (they were) will immediately get deleted, just because you don't like trans people doesn't mean you can be an whiny little bitch. A child was murdered. This has nothing to do with politics, a child was murdered.

Quick rant lol
Really sad that my younger sister is both homophobic and transphobic. I really thought that we had a really good relationship between us but the transphobic stuff my dad has been showing her has fully affected her opinion. I’m really sad, I thought I could trust her with who I am. All of the transphobia that has been heightened just because we are rallying for our rights, and because we deserve to be treated like a human. I’m worried that one day she will tell my parents, I don’t feel safe. I could easily get kicked out of the house. And I can’t even say this to anyone cuz even my older sister hates neopronouns. We are just trying to celebrate our existence but yet we are hated. I hate how people are trying to make us look bad, with the neo-nazi trying to sell “HRT pills” that actually have dangerous levels of testosterone that could kill you. I hate how my own parents fall for the “trans people are assaulting your kids” when more Christian figures have been arrested for sexually assaulting kids, and how it has never been mentioned. I hate how I’m told to indirectly kill my self (if you don’t know there was a school that had a rainbow blow up and it went viral on Twitter, with many right winged people saying that it will cause school shootings) because I am a queer person in school, just trying to learn. Do my parents know? Will they throw me out at 18 because then I will be legally an adult? Does my family hate me? Will I ever be seen as their child ever again if they do find out? Will I ever be loved? Will I ever find a home? Will I ever be safe in my own skin? Will I be beat up in public because of how I present myself?
I don’t know, and that scares me.

Someone walked by me and my boyfriend, and was like, "Ew, is She gay??" and they were pointing to him. I was like "No, He's Biromantic." And they were like "Imagine Forcing someone to be the opposite gender just to date them." And then just walked off.
Like, People need to stop. If someone is straingt and trans, they are straight in the context of the gender identity they are comfortable in. not the Sex they are born as.

On Sunday, Club Q in Colorado Springs was planning to host an “All Ages Musical Drag Brunch,” followed by an event for the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance, a day set aside to honor the memory of transgender people who lost their lives as a result of transphobic violence. But on Saturday night, a shooter opened fire in the club, an act of unfathomable violence that would’ve wrought even more destruction had the gunman not been subdued by two club patrons, who took his gun and held him down until police arrived. So far, it has been reported that five people were killed and 25 more were injured. Four of those five names have been released so far. These are the stories of those lost lives. This post will be updated as more names are released.
