1. @staff made a post pretty much saying “Your stuff isn’t getting deleted, just hidden from everyone but you” and “Yeah we know you hate the term “female presenting nipples” but we ain’t gonna stop saying it” 2. If a blog has a pixelated icon that means they got hit by the ban, you cannot view that blog outside the sidebar. You cannot even view their archive. Allegedly if you follow the advice in this post it’ll be fixed but only if it was an accidental flag (aka a real sfw blog) 3. The post Staff made including examples of what was ok to post. It got flagged. 4. Yes, the bots are still here. Yes they are still stealing posts and putting porn links on them. Yes there are still ads with stuff more sexual than they allow in posts. Yes innocent things are still getting flagged. 5. So yes, the site is still here and staff are still morons.

I give it a week at most before she sends him back. 

Thor: I’m glad you’re back, you little shit.

Notes: Can be read as the start of a qpr. (That’s certainly how I read it.)

Would you guys be interested in cards like this or just a text format? Or both, that’s also an option.

Might change my card format to look better on a separate page I can set up for recs but I’ll most likely use the text format as default. :) ty!

All I have to go on is the person calling themselves truscum*, which means (among other things) they think you have to have dysphoria to be trans, and transmed, which, according to the definition I found online, is again, someone who believes you have to have dysphoria to be trans, basically saying if you don’t have it, you aren’t trans. That is trying to dictate someone’s experience in how they are trans. Like, I’ve never interacted with a transmed on this topic to my knowledge to get an explanation for why they call themselves that, just, like I said, going off the definition online.All the articles I can find about what transmed/truscum means is that you have to fit a certain definition of trans: limited to “those who experience body dysphoria, desire a “binary” medical transition, and are pursuing hormones and surgery.”And if you don’t believe that, and are in fact mistakenly using the term, this is a moot point. But the fact is someone calling themselves a transmed is, either mistakenly or on purpose, expressing those exact ideals.I am personally bigender and trans - I’m male & nonbinary. Therefore, according to the definition offered here, I’m not trans enough. Maybe individual people think only part of what’s included in the definition, but that is still attempting to dictate how someone experiences being trans. But that doesn’t change the fact that someone calling themselves that makes me uncomfortable, on a blog I run, and I’m not going to expose myself or my followers to that. To be honest, I should have taken a screenshot of the original ask and blocked the person on anon, which is what I will be doing from now on. Learning experience.If the transmeds you’ve interacted with haven’t expressed any of these ideals, then one of two things is true: 1) they are claiming the term in error or 2) they are like terfs, who can sound like completely reasonable people with some of their ideas, until you realize that they mean “only certain x type of people are included”.*They include that in their explanation which is why I’m including it. Still extremely confused about the ask.

I hope the people the anon here is talking about just…..mistakenly using the term! That is something that happens. If you scroll back through this blog, I mistakenly used genderqueer/queerplatonic interchangeably completely on accident and not meaning anything bad by it, and went back and corrected it as soon as I had it pointed out what I’d done when my brain mixed up the two similar sounding terms (that it had apparently decided Meant The Same Thing, brains really are just glitchy computers).
