Trans Joy - Blog Posts
Oh. On the topic of transmasc stuff, I’ve got an appointment soon to discuss birth control options for me!
I’m super excited because my periods are my biggest cause of dysphoria and for the longest time I was worried I couldn’t go on birth control due to the fact that I’m intersex.
So, woohoo!! Genuinely!!
so the other day a castmate of mine was talking about having once been a little girl (at this point, i all but short-circuited because said castmate is a man in his mid-sixties and my brain had its little moment of “!!!!! trans person!!! and he’s OLD!!!!”) and being asked if there was a famous person he looked up to or wanted to look or be more like. and he said— again, as a little girl at this point— “santa claus!” and everyone thought he was weird for it.
and this story doesn’t read as well over text because you really have to see the guy. but he looks just like santa claus. he’s got the long white hair and the beard and the belly and everything. and i just. the amount of secondhand trans joy i experienced is truly insane. i’m gonna get old! i’m gonna get old the way i wanna get old! hey everybody you’re gonna get old; we’ve been doing it for years!
anyway shoutout to the santa claus of my cast and to every older trans person we love you so fucking much
Happy day of trans visibility!!
Hey y’all here’s something I drew for my queer studies class last semester 🏳️⚧️
I wasn’t able to put too much time into it but I’m pretty proud of how it turned out, especially the mycelium rib cage 🩻🍄🟫
Happy pride! 💚
I think I need to write some sort of piece about this. This is so profound
You ever hear that old chestnut about how most people neglect the part of the story of Icarus where he also had to avoid flying too low, lest the spray of the sea soak his feathers and cause him to fall and drown? You ever think about how different the world would be if Icarus died that way instead? If the idiom was to Fly To Close To The Sea? A warning against playing it far too safe, about not stretching your wings and soaring properly? You ever think about how Icarus died because he was happy?
i love being trans so much. after i first came out, i was scared, i was afraid to be a tranny, but 10 years later, i'm more in love with the experience than i was when i found out what "transgender" meant and felt alive. i love my identity, i love being able to play with expression and presentation freely now that i know who i am. i love doing drag. i love spending time with other trans people the most out of other queer people. i just love being trans and love seeing other people be happy being trans. i love seeing people transform their identities and bodies in ways that actually fit them. it's awesome!
we do in fact deserve to celebrate this experience. the act of being transgender is one of transformation and ultimately, change for the better. we are allowed to experience joy, elation, and pride. we are allowed to love being trans. it's healthy, in fact. i love being trans and i love every trans person's unique expression of transness. we rule
No because let’s talk about the fact the TERFs don’t want you to heal. Because if you heal then you won’t be the perfect little victim for them to leverage against trans women and the ~dangerous dangerous men~
Let’s talk ab the fact that TERFs only see AMAB on AFAB SA as real SA and when you try to change that dynamic at all (COCSA, Queer SA, etc.) all their arguments go out the window
Let’s talk about the fact that they don’t even care about the general wellbeing of women and only focus on keeping women hurt and scared for what? What do they get at the end of this fear mongering? It’s like cartoon villains who want to “destroy the world” and don’t have a plan for what to do after
TERFs want you misrebile, they want you hurt, they want to use you and your trauma as chess pieces to a “greater end” that doesn’t even exist
Most effective way to combat them is to have joy and heal. To live a good life. To not get sucked in the fear and misery because in the end it leads to nothing. Stay Trans, Stay Happy, Stay Safe
Be The Woman Inside
In honor of a friend that left us too soon; and to anyone reading this that might feel isolated and unloved.
There are many people in this world capable of loving you exactly the way you are. There are many male friends that you can have that will never judge you for wanting to be a woman, a slut, a housewife, or whatever you want to be. Be yourself, become what you want to be. But be; for the world's sake, please continue being.
