Welcome! Glad To See You! Status: Offline!

Here’s simply a big hug to those of you who recently came out and got a negative reaction. 

No matter if it was a family member, a friend, your partner, someone you know from school or work or even “just” somebody you’re not close to/don’t see regularly: It hurts. 

You don’t need to deny your pain. It doesn’t mean you’re weak or that you’re not proud of your identity. 

Opening up to someone, telling them who you really are, only for them to get angry, not believe you, make fun of you, brush it off…, that is heartbreaking. It’s scary.  It might make you regret your decision to come out, even make you second-guess your whole identity. It can make you feel unlovable, not good enough. 

Please know that there’s nothing wrong with you and how you feel. They are the ones who are wrong! You deserve better. 

I know that it can be difficult to stay positive during hard times, so I’m not going to tell you to. Right now, you don’t need to feel strong or proud. You’re allowed to feel disappointed or stressed or heartbroken. 

Better times will come, I promise. 

With all my love, 

I’m not being dramatic when I say I could die If I don’t get the medical help I need. READ THIS

I need to have access to good health care. I’m chronically ill with horrible and scary diseases. I’ve already almost died three times, and have been on my death bed twice.

I’m in and out of hospitals constantly.

I NEED HELP. I NEED TO LEAVE AND MOVE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE!!! Please fucking help me.

Boost my links, donate whatever! I’m grateful for anything !!

I don’t want to die. I’ve been fighting for my life since I was 16. I’m taking my health seriously and using the little bit of energy that I have to get shit done.

I’m honestly only asking for the bare minimum of what I need to move, and pay for my medical shit. That’s all.

PLEASE DONATE OR BOOST MY LINKS!!!!!!

NOW IS THE TIME TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT AND BE AN ALLY !

A few people asked us:

Hello! I was wondering if you have an updated list of your locations that offer HRT? Thank you!

Does planned parenthood offer hormone replacement therapy in the state of Florida ? If so, which cities?

are there any PPs in oregon that offer hormone replacement therapy?

We got y’all. You can find a list of the Planned Parenthood health centers that offer trans health care services, which may include hormone replacement therapy (aka HRT), at the bottom of this page.

Planned Parenthood’s health care services vary depending on the location, and sometimes the services offered can change. So if you don’t see your local health center on that list, call the health center to double check if it’s offered.

If your local Planned Parenthood health center doesn’t offer HRT, call them to see if they can recommend a trans-friendly doctor in your area who does. You can also tell them that you want this service and what it would mean for you. Our health centers do their best to meet the needs of people in the community and they value your opinion.

(Hormone replacement therapy can also refer to a type of treatment for the symptoms of menopause and perimenopause. If you’re looking for hormone therapy for menopause, contact your local Planned Parenthood health center to see if they offer this service.)

- someone’s transition status is none of your business

- the transition status of someone’s partner is none of your business

- your gender is not dictated or invalidated by your transition status

There’s increasing confusion about the genderqueer label, especially when the word “queer” itself is contentious. So I thought I’d try to conduct a survey to see how genderqueer people view themselves, and who we are.

If you’re genderqueer, please take this survey! If you’re not I’d appreciate a reblog.

I’ll be posting results under the #genderqueersurvey tag on my blog. 

If you are on the search, you’ve come to the right place! First, have you seen my extensive tumblr post of queer books?  Check that out. Now, some faves. I will put a * next to the ones with POC leads, and feel free to message me about any titles! Are you looking for…
