i wake up more awake than ive ever been before

people need to stop Knowing me how dare you love me and pay enough attention to me that you can predict my behavior. stop that argggghh

also they need to stop saying nice things to me cause I dont know how to handle that either

I love that thing when people get a little bit tongue-tied and garble what they’re trying to say so they make a little “blegh” 👅 noise and start over. verbal reset button. hitting the top of the tv to unscramble the signal

transitioning is like putting on the They Live glasses and seeing that 90% of people looking at you are either jerking off or furiously sharpening a knife. or both. and i do not mean that in a sexy or fun way, and i dont like clarifying that, but i know there's a 90% chance you are thinking it, because i wrote it while being a trans woman.

Oppression olympics is a funny term to levy against trans women, who are banned from the olympics.

If you know a trans girl online or offline, you have to love her and respect her and let her love you back. Make her feel seen. Don’t hide her away from the world and discard her. Love her. Tell her that. And mean it.

This is transfeminism!

*person who doesn't even know what v-coding is voice* listen. We're all faggots in the eyes of the state. We are all equally oppressed. So will you PLEASE let us talk over you without bitching?

this is transfeminism!

a child can 100% be trans, but there's no such thing as a cis child under ~10 and i believe this unironically

children only start being cis once they ostracize their trans peers. which i guess in fairness can be younger than 10 in many instances. but point is that before that we just tell them they're cis and they have no frame of reference to really say anything about it (and if they do, they get abused)

There’s a reason I use CAMAB/CAFAB (coercively assigned gender at birth) instead of AMAB/AFAB, and even then rarely (and with ‘individuals’ in front of the acronym). Cause like, a lot of people, even in the queer community, just take bioessentialism and throw a progressive topping on it that’s like “gender isn’t real but your sex is” and then use AMAB/AFAB for bioessentialist talking points. And even then when someone says AMAB they typically just mean transfems, they do mean all individuals CAFAB when they say AFAB though (something something regendering transmascs into the female sexgender class and degendering transfems into the third sexgender class). Just like gender, sex isn’t real either, and a saying I really like using to explain this is that “the stars are real but the constellations aren’t.” No one trying to define male/female can do it without excluding people that they would consider male or female, and the definition they’re thinking of, the one that everyone uses to try and bioessentially distinguish male/female is whatever sex your doctor decided you were when they looked at your genitals at birth, which is clearly bullshit so no one tries to define sex that way, and since they can’t define it any other way it shows that sex is just bullshit outright and that it’s a ‘constellation’ that doesn’t have anything tangible to do with reality and is just something created by humanity to have meaning. The stars are real but the constellations aren’t; sex isn’t real. So therefore it’s important to use CAMAB/CAFAB rather than AMAB/AFAB, because sex is a fake thing coercively applied onto you by society.

And truly what do they mean it was in public? Does that mean that the upskirt photos people take on subways dont count because other people are around? OF COURSE IT WAS IN PUBLIC THATS HOW THE PHOTO GOT TAKEN IF SHE HAD BEEN PHOTOGRAPHED AT HOME IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BREAKING AND ENTERING

what do they mean "it wasn't taken surreptitiously"? there isn't any implication here except that because Freda Wallace was in public, she consented to any pictures that might be taken of her? this is just "look at the way she* was dressed". snopes is doing rape culture.

im a trans woman and a real human being capable of suffering by the way. i exist.

im not porn, im a girl. i have friends and interests and hopes and things i want to do. i laugh and cry and i give hugs and i watch the sunset. i'm real. im a person. i'm a woman. please stop treating me like im an object. i'd love it if you stopped, i'd give you anything in return for it. please see me.

i do all this just like you do. i'm real. please see me as real. it would make me so happy if you did, if you saw me as just another person.
