straight cis people complain about lgbtq+ people shoving it in their faces all the time, but here’s the thing: we have to.

like. i’m trans. i have a trans pin on my jacket and a pretty clear HE pin as well (and I know it’s not about how easy the pin is to read: my old one was even more clear and the same stuff happened. every. day.). Yet, every time I go somewhere, I’m called a girl. People use she/her for me. They refer to a group with me in it as “ladies.” Even though I’ve clearly shown what pronouns to use. 

I introduce myself as James and people call me Jane or comment on how ‘that’s an unusual name’ (with the extremely obvious for a girl going unspoken most of the time), and continue to use she/her for me. Sometimes, they ask me how to spell it (they ask me how to spell James.) because they can’t believe a ‘girl’ would have that name.

If I want somebody to stop misgendering me, I have to say out loud that I’m trans, use he/him pronouns for me. I have to remind them every day, every time they misgender me, until they stop. And they never do stop completely. Even if they met me after I came out and have therefore always known me as a guy.

If you want us to stop ‘shoving it in your face’ maybe pay attention to our signals first.

Seriously just a bit of pollen could make your cat sick within a matter of minutes. Stay far away from Easter lilies if you have kitties!

Just to clear this up…

“Fictive” and “fictional introject” are two different terms for the same general concept. “Fictional introject” is the term most commonly used by traumagenic systems, or systems with DID/OSDD. “Fictive” is a term, like “headmates” that originated within endogenic/soulbonding communities but can be used by any system type.

So yes, endogenic systems can have fictives, and use the term. It was originally their term to begin with, though it is now widespread throughout the multiple community in general. (At least, on tumblr.) 

If people want to debate terminology, so be it, but they should know where the terms actually come from first if they’re going to do so.

[alchemistulpa]

Evidence, please...?

Non-endogenic systems claiming we don’t exist, please provide evidence. We will accept scientific studies which state clearly that “it’s not possible be a system without trauma, being DID, or OSDD.

Cough it up, or shut up.

I had orientation today for a new job and the "children" made it very clear they were bored by pESTERING me while trying to watch/listen to videos and the manager. Tulpas, when it comes down to it, really are like toddlers who forgot their tablet at home and have nothing to do while you're out adulting

You have a vivid innerworld? Amazing. You have a cartoony innerworld? Wonderful. You can’t access your innerworld? Valid. You don’t have a innerworld? Also valid.

don't say you "love and accept" every system if you're going to exclude and demonize tulpamancers.

we exist and we deserve to feel like we're not being gatekept and having to apologize for creating something beautiful and amazing and something that helps us more than you could ever imagine

don't lie and say you support every system when you don't.

just wanted to get this off my chest

1.6.19 - thank you

I want to just say, thank you to my tulpas, and to anyone else's tulpas, who truly care about their host. The ones who know when something is wrong, and won't accept "I'm fine" for an answer. The ones who gently remind you to get dressed, take a shower, brush your teeth - and those who do it /for/ their hosts then they can't even get out of bed. The ones who do simple things, like leave little notes around the house, or make the bed. The ones that run their fingers through your hair in headspace, hug you from behind and tell you that everything is going to be okay.

Thank you Fenrir, for being the most caring. The one who gets me out of bed in the morning, comforts me when I have a bad dream, and helps me calm down when I'm so angry I could physically tear my hair out.

Thank you Moth, for being the most empathetic. You give the warmest hugs, the softest touches and the most heartfelt words. Moments with you remind me that someone cares.

And thank you Hansel, for being the most inquisitive. Always trying to find a solution to my troubles, whether that be finding something simple I can make myself for dinner when I don't have the energy, or complex, anxiety inducing problems that never seem to get have an end in sight.

As hosts, we are expected to love and take care of our tulpas, or other thought forms, but sometimes when we can barely manage to eat, or take a shower, we have to rely on them to love and take care of us. And it's the most comforting feeling, when after telling yourself for so long that nobody will ever care about you, someone is there to prove you wrong

So, I'm just begining the process of creating a tulpa and I wanted a second opinion. As a tranny myself do you think it would be more beneficial to have a trans tulpa for support or a cis tulpa for a new pov. Or do I not get to decide that at all amd I sound really dumb...

I don't really like how you used a transgender slur in an ask box, but I'll answer it anyway. You get to decide whatever you want about your tulpa. Keep in mind though that once your tulpa is sentient they to decide things for themselves as well, so they may change.
