Hi guys, Olivia here. I know I haven't been on here much in the last two weeks and for good reason considering my financial and personal/professional life continue to be in turmoil. But it hasn't been all doom and gloom and I recently received my admission letter to one of my two dream universities. Unfortunately in order to be able to even be able to enroll in, let alone start my classes for the fall 2019 semester, I have to pay $425 as apart of my enrollment intention within the next two weeks in order to reserve my space at the university. As much as I hate to make another donation post, I'm literally at the end of my rope. It was a miracle I even got admitted to the school and with the instability of my job in regards to actually getting my pay correct over the course of the summer and various other bills staring at me in the coming weeks, I know I won't have any extra money to spare and this is pretty much my last chance saloon when it comes to college at least for the next months. My pride is completely out the window right now and literally anything would help. I don't have many options left and I know an opportunity like this won't come along again for me so any reblogs or donations are appreciated.

Where y’all sitting? (based on tags from my own works)

Shark skin feels exactly like sandpaper. It is made up of tiny teeth-like structures called placoid scales, also known as dermal denticles. These scales point towards the tail and help to reduce friction from surrounding water when the shark swims. … In the opposite direction, it feels very rough like sandpaper.

best: none worst: all

The reason for this (I assume, seeing as I don’t have firsthand knowledge), is because being told “We need to do better about transmisogyny” by a more relatable, less hostile appearing tme person, helps to relieve them of some of the guilt that comes with being told what they’re doing is shitty. As opposed to when a trans girl (Such as myself) makes a post about transmisogyny, and is speaking much more directly (And sometimes vaguely hostilely) at the reader.

And sure. I get that being yelled at through the screen by a trans girl because you’re transmisogynistic, isn’t very preferable compared to someone who doesn’t experience transmisogyny, and is thus able to approach the topic with a more emotionally detached, more calm perspective.

To decide that trans girls are “too aggressive” in how they discuss transmisogyny/present their issues to TME people, is transmisogynistic. Transmisogyny is omnipresent in the lives of trans girls, and damn near strips us of any sense of personhood.

It is a luxury to be able to look upon trans girls discussing the horrific ways in which transmisogyny has impacted then, and decide “Actually, she’s being kinda a bitch so I don’t care”.

Understand that, as trans people who aren’t trans girls, you have it better than trans girls so. Plain and simple. As such, if you want to consider yourself a good ally, you have a moral obligation to hold yourself accountable for your own transmisogyny.

It doesn’t matter how “uncomfortable” it may make you to consider such things, because guess what? You can look away from trans girls trying to point out and bring attention to transmisogyny, to spare your own feelings. But us trans girls do not have the privilege of looking away to spare our precious feelings. More than that, transmisogyny is infinitely more impactful and damaging than taking 2 minutes to read a post from a trans girl, and hitting reblog.
