#transweekofvisibility

In the spirit of Trans Visibility week, which for me, is every week, I took a couple of barefaced selfies which I don’t often do but getting more comfortable with. #transweekofvisibility #transgender #transgirl #transwoman #transisbeautiful #girlslikeus #tgirlselfie #wontbeerased https://www.instagram.com/p/BvhmMV4F2Yx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=oggul0bvepwq

Heading into #transweekofvisibility with a lot of #t4t devotion ✨ Especially now, embodied spaces for connection that honor the nuance, sacredness, tenacity, and brilliance of trans ness feel so precious. Sometimes the magic of something softening, shifting, healing even, isn’t complex or dramatic… sometimes it’s subtle, quiet, sometimes… easy. So much is falling apart, being born. So much is possible. Slide read: trans led trans + queer centered yoga spaces are needed because there are consistent patterns in how: gender affirming yoga can empower euphoria, belonging, and nervous system regulation, where mainstream yoga can trigger dysphoria and aggravation specifically trans, non-binary, and queer bodies hold pain and inflammation internalized transphobia + homophobia affects our bodies and minds in ways cis het yoga cannot address, and sometimes makes worse many trans, nonbinary, queer people struggle with unworthiness, shame, and related disembodiment, and yoga can help us transform these wounds at the root level healing is possible when we feel safe enough to be present with what is, and when we explore this work together, we are affirmed in our inherent wholeness and belonging. 🌷🦋❤️‍🔥🏳️‍⚧️✨🌌 If you’re ready for some affirming, loving support for your asana + yoga practice - join us?! 🖤 Sadhana Support Collective helps trans folks, queers and counter-culture yoga lovers committed to collective liberation reconnect to the practices they love, break the burn out cycle + be nourished, embodied, and spiritually strong through committed yoga practice empowered by adaptive, functional asana in an affirming community without bypassing their body or the wisdom of their lived experience. 💘 #transyoga #nonbinaryyoga #queeryoga #communitycare LINK IN BIO https://www.instagram.com/p/CqROFv6vFNk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Trans joy is sacred in part because it arises out of trans suffering, trans loneliness, fear, pain. Trans is transformational in multiple dimensions. 🌌🕸 Euphoria emerges out of, and thus reveals clearly, dysphoria. The lotus of trans truth blooms out of the mud of cis binary gender essentialism, to play with the classic metaphor… Sometimes it feels like the more I have these tastes of being gender affirmed, the less tolerable non-affirming space become. This feels like a tenuous conundrum. Sometimes faith is a set of wings, sometimes a path in the dark, stumbling feet trying to feel where is the way forward. . . As we enter #transweekofvisibility and #transweekofaction amidst a dense field of legislative and cultural bs, I offer this spiritual reflection. Something tender, loving. . . I created this carousel flying home from the Costa Rica QT Retreat, which was the 1st times I had been in such a beautifully affirming community space for an uninterrupted extended period of time. It was… life changing. Now back home, riding some dark waves. They come and go, too. None of this is simple or easy. I’m here for it though. Really truly. . . I am deeply nourished by the glimpses, conversations, connections, moments of increasing overlaps of yoga and trans ness. Hoping this sharing offers a bit of ✨ for you, if you’re needing such medicine. . . Warm invite to some special things!

#Repost @j.teacake @download.ins --- For Transgender Week of Visibility and Action, I’d like to challenge people to stop erasing trans and nonbinary identities in discussions about bi issues and stop erasing bi identity in discussions about trans and nonbinary issues. Bi trans and nonbinary people exist. Trans and nonbinary people are not just their gender identity, and bi people are not just their sexual/romantic orientation. 🏳️‍⚧️💛💜🤍🖤💖💜💙 #transweekofvisibility #transvisibility #transvisibilityweek #bi #bisexual #biromantic #bipride #bivisibility #bipositivity #bisexualpride #bisexuality #bisexualvisibility #bisexualawareness #lgbtq #lgbt #lgbtqia #queer #bisexualsofinstagram #bisexualartist #bisexualart #artistsoninstagram #artwork #art #queerartist #queerart #trans #transgender #nonbinary (at Richmond, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNGnFNbFFNv/?igshid=1u67tb88sngb7

#Repost @annie_wu_22 @download.ins --- it’s #transweekofvisibility so I wanna talk about “womxn” vs “women” and why the spelling we use matters🚺🏳️‍⚧️💕🏳️‍🌈 #transwomenarewomen i made these graphics in collaboration with my friend @megemikoart (they/them) who is an AAPI, trans, non-binary graphic artist and overall amazing human being. Meg is currently selling merch that supports QTBIPOC orgs + mutual aid funds (i will link in my stories). please support their work and continue to amplify why our language matters in order to make everyone feel safe, included and seen. 💙💗🤍 some of you might remember that i wrote an article for @shityoushouldcareabout about AOC being accosted on the steps of the Capitol. the piece was meant to speak on the dynamics about how women are treated in our patriarchal society. i had researched if i should use “womxn” “womyn” or “women” to be most inclusive and at the time i had sited articles that encouraged the use of the “x” when speaking specifically about feminist issues since often times these come off as white feminism. this decision however was wrong and this word implies that BIPOC and trans women aren’t as much of women. while the intent is to be inclusive, the impact is the opposite. when learning this, i requested that the publication be changed to reflect this learning. i wasn’t called out or anything to spur this change, i just thought that if people were to find and read this old article, i didn’t want to cause any more potential future hurt. this change was made a while ago, but i wanted to specifically point it out to not only say that i made an error, but also to show that we can all continue to learn, grow and change our actions accordingly in this process. thank you all for your support as I too am learning, unlearning and going along side of all of you. if you read this article prior to the change and were hurt by my language, I am deeply sorry. I can never promise to be perfect, but I will always try my best and when I do make mistakes, do everything in my power to right the wrongs :) 📸 via @archermagazine (at Richmond, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM5yTRllKN8/?igshid=18j8uhzrvpe6y

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) is an annual observance on November 20 that honors the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. Additionally, the week before TDOR, people and organizations around the country participate in Transgender Awareness Week to help raise visibility for transgender people and address issues the community faces. What is Transgender Day of Remembrance? Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) was started in 1999 by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith as a vigil to honor the memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who was killed in 1998. The vigil commemorated all the transgender people lost to violence since Rita Hester's death, and began an important tradition that has become the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance. "Transgender Day of Remembrance seeks to highlight the losses we face due to anti-transgender bigotry and violence. I am no stranger to the need to fight for our rights, and the right to simply exist is first and foremost. With so many seeking to erase transgender people -- sometimes in the most brutal ways possible -- it is vitally important that those we lose are remembered, and that we continue to fight for justice." - Transgender Day of Remembrance founder Gwendolyn Ann Smith https://www.glaad.org/tdor .
