Got bored, here's a transmasc achillean flag

[image ID: A pride flag for transmasculine achilleans, colors in order: pink, blue, light blue, white, light blue, blue, pink. with a green carnation symbol in the center of the flag. end ID]

Combination of the achillean [any man attracted to other men] and transmasc flags 💙

meanings of colors under the cut :)

[image id: the aforementioned transmasc achillean flag, with text over the top for the meanings of the colors. Pink: feminity and attraction to feminine men. blue: masculinity and attraction to masculine men. light blue: general/overall attraction to men. white: acceptance of gender-nonconforming and nonbinary transmascs. end ID]

This flag is for any transmasculine person who likes men :) including m-spec identities, uranic folks, genderqueer/nonbinary transmascs, binary trans men and gay men <33

Trans men demanding access to reproductive healthcare is anti terf action. Terfs want trans men excluded from reproductive healthcare. They want us at higher risk for cervical cancer. They want us unable to get abortions. They want us unable to receive the care we need so we are forced to detransition. They are hoping we get pregnant and have to quit taking T, they are hoping we get cancer and have to change our papers back before the medical system will do anything about it, they are hoping we just die because we're traitors and deserve it.

This shit is an existential threat against trans men and transmasc. We deserve access to healthcare.

cis women: testosterone turns you into a violent abuser with anger issues it’s just biology

every trans men I’ve ever met when they are on T: I have decided to study psychology and insects and to become a social worker and start a folk punk band and to also adopt 5 children. I am also going to eat an entire box of cereal in one sitting and donate all of my savings to 7 specific fundraisers and maybe do a light core workout before noon

since the current MaDD flag causes eyestrain for muis, especially in icons, wei decided to try making some symbols for MaDD and maybe immersive daydreaming too

these are free to use for anything, and feedback / suggestions are welcome

Today, July 19 2022, intersex genital mutilation is banned in Greece!! This is the fifth country in the world to ban intersex surgery at birth, and is a huge win for intersex people in Greece. So much appreciation and admiration to the activists from Intersex Greece who worked to pass this bill. The fight is not over, but this is an amazing step towards protecting intersex people.

Check out this article for more info!!

This is what the concept of transandrophobia means

Trans men's identities as trans individuals are inseparable from their identities as men. Trans men are hated /for being men/. Trans men are oppressed /for being men/. Trans men are assaulted /for being men/. If we were women instead of men we would be accepted by cisnormative society /but we're not because we're trans men/.

This is what the concept of transandrophobia means.

Trans men are not more oppressed than trans women or nonbinary individuals, there is no oppression competition, we are simply oppressed differently based on the way society sees us

This is what the concept of transandrophobia means

Trans men do not have the same privilege, acceptance, or power in society as men, and theres no reason to hate us simply for being men.

Man =/= Oppressor

This is what the concept of transandrophobia means

Transandrophobia is hatred that targets trans men and trans masc individuals, even if they're not the intended target. Transandrophobia is comparable to transmisogyny, but directed at trans men.

Please think about this for a bit if you're going to respond instead of sending knee jerk hatred at a man who suffers for his identity just as much as any other queer person

Roe V Wade was apparently protecting my access to Methotrexate.

Hey so because of Roe V Wade being overturned I no longer have access to the most important medicine I take for my rheumatoid arthritis, Methotrexate. So I'm fundraising so I can travel to where I can get it, and then buy it out of pocket. This is a crucial drug for preventing my RA from getting worse. Once it does, there is no reversing it. I am being denied it because it "Might cause the miscarriage of an unplanned pregnancy" and I'm "a female of reproductive age" If you google "Methotrexate" and switch to the news tab you'll see several articles about this happening across the us. Here's One.

So if you wanna help a bitch out, here's my Kofi. https://ko-fi.com/neala_draws

Until aros are not automatically met with pity from allos when they come out (”It sucks you can’t love”; “You’re gonna be alone forever”; “You can still be in a relationship”; “Are you sure you just haven’t found the right person”), we are never going to be able to fully erase amatonormativity. 

We don’t want your pity, there’s nothing to pity us for, we want your support.
