Hello everyone
I hope you are at your best
It seems that nothing is going well. Since yesterday, my daughter Diana, 4 years old, has had her ear bleeding heavily with pus. When she was taken to the hospital, they diagnosed her condition as an acute middle ear infection, and she needed some medications and antibiotics. Unfortunately, the treatment is expensive, as its price in the pharmacy is approximately $100, and we do not have any dollars now. Imagine that she is in pain day and night, suffering a lot, and crying a lot. We live in the ruins of our bombed-out house, and it seems that pollution and chemicals are beginning to take their toll. It causes us diseases, and the first victim is my little daughter Diana
Please donate to us to buy medicine please
Thank you very much

Help my family to leave the Gaza Strip
I am Najah Al-Haila from Gaza.
I never imagined I would find myself in a situation that would require me to write these words, but life has taken an unexpected and devastating turn. My family, consisting of my beloved husband and our four children - two daughters and two sons - is facing a crisis that we cannot overcome alone.
Our home, once filled with love and laughter, has been shattered. The roof over our heads, the walls that protected us, and the place where our children grew up are lost. We lost not only our home, but the foundations of our lives. Now, we struggle every day to survive, with nowhere to go or a way to rebuild without help.
Our children, who should be focused on school and their dreams, worry instead about where they will sleep or when their next meal will be. The weight of their fear and confusion breaks my heart. As parents, we feel helpless and unable to provide basic necessities for our loved ones.
We are urgently asking for help because we cannot do this alone. We need to rebuild not only our home, but our lives. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly to providing our children with a safe place to sleep, food to eat, and a chance to dream again. Please, if you can find it in your heart to help us during this desperate time, we will be forever grateful to you. May your kindness and generosity be the light that guides us through this darkness.
Please help me donate and share🙏
Najah

I saw you mentioned CisTrans folk in a post, what does that mean? Does it mean both being cis and trans? (which I genuinely don't understand how you could be both at the same time) or does it mean cis folk and trans folk separately? (/Genuine questions)
Hey! Yep, it means people that are both cis and trans!
There are many different reasons why a person may identify that way, but a few are:
Being intersex, and never feeling like you really fit into either of the cis genders, due to the concept of gender feeling like something out of reach (not being "adequate" enough to be a girl, but not a boy either, going into bathrooms and getting complaints no matter whether you go into the men's or women's, etc.),
Being POC, not fitting into the concept of cisness or transness due to them having to deal with white beauty standards and racism, and having to fight to have a gender at all
Being a part of a certain culture that has a completely different concept of gender and therefore not fitting in the cis/trans binary,
Being multigender, such as both a trans man and a cis woman, both a cis man and a trans woman, perhaps even both cis man and cis woman etc.
And there are definitely more reasons, as queer labels are meant to be flexible, as there are so many different experiences and interpretations people can have about themselves, and one definition cannot and shouldn't be forced on everyone; the entire point of the queer community is to accept and celebrate the diversity of people's experiences
Every gender, sex, and orientation self-identification binary is going to have some people outside of it, and this includes cis/trans
If you'd like to know about these experiences in more detail, here are some posts!:

Gendered parenting is so weird. As a little kid I was a total daddy's girl, I was told I would always try to sneak the garage, I was always very interested in everything he was doing and would follow him around while he was working, but while my family was never the type to outright say "you can't do that because you're a girl", they simply didn't entertain the idea that I could possibly be interested in cars. Then when my little brother was born, it was just assumed he would become a mechanic like our dad because he was a boy. Even though he, unlike me, didn't like being in the garage much and wasn't all that interested in what dad was doing. Once he got to a certain age, dad started making him help and would drag him away from his actual interests for it, which lead to a lot of arguing and not much actual learning.
Gendered expectations sort of create doubles of children. There's the real child with their actual personality, interests and behaviors, and then there's the Gender Child.
My real brother hated soccer and team sports. The Gender Child that existed only the minds of the adults in his life enjoyed playing soccer because that's what a Boy Child likes.
Growing up, I always felt like adults didn't actually know me as a person and they weren't interested in getting to know me. Because they felt they'd already learned everything there was to know about me when they were told "it's a girl".
When I talk about how I never got gifts I actually liked from my relatives (to this day I still don't like getting gifts that aren't something I picked out myself), it isn't actually about the gifts themselves. I don't even remember them. What I do remember is the feeling of being given gifts that were seemingly not bought with the real me in mind. They were for the Girl Child™️ version of me. The me that adults wanted me to be, not who I actually was.

A Plea from the Heart: I Am Fatima, and This Is My Story
My name is Fatima, a teacher from Gaza. I used to work in a small school I loved dearly, planting hope in the hearts of children and teaching them that tomorrow could be better. But the war took everything away. My school was bombed, I lost my job, and our home was reduced to rubble. Yet, I refused to give up. I set up a small tent amid the destruction and continued teaching children, showing them that knowledge is a light that cannot be extinguished, even in the darkest times.
My husband, Akram, was my partner and pillar of support. But he was severely injured in an attack targeting civilians. His abdominal injuries are so severe that he can no longer work or even lift basic items. Every day, I see the pain in his eyes and feel the weight of helplessness, but I try to stay strong for him and for our children.
Our eldest, Manar, is four years old, and she’s missing out on her childhood amidst this devastation. Our youngest, Ibrahim, was born under bombardment just a year ago. He has suffered greatly due to the lack of milk and proper medical care. Yet, sometimes, he smiles, and in those brief moments, I find the strength to keep going.
We now live in a fragile tent that doesn’t shield us from the cold or rain. Every day is a new battle for survival. I write these words while holding my children’s hands, with nothing left but my faith in God and the hope that your kind hearts will hear our plea.
Please help us provide milk and food for our children, ease Akram’s pain, and rebuild even a small part of the life the war has destroyed. Every donation, no matter how small, makes a big difference in our lives.
I ask you to share our story and be our support during this harsh and unforgiving time.

I finished my Masters in Library and Informational Science! People asked me what I wanted as a graduation gift and I said that all I want is for you to help out @abo-ataa to support his family this winter by donating to his paypal below.
Please consider donating to my friend Hussam, he has been displaced from his home in Rafah, and has to take care of his children in this freezing cold weather without even a proper tent! A few dollars will go a long way, no matter how small! Consider it a graduation gift for me if you appreciated any of my posts on tumblr!

disabled intersex trans lesbian needs help saving up for rent during winter
hello there, my name is Equinox. i'm a severely disabled intersex trans lesbian activist and artist who deals with hypermobile ehlers danlos syndrome, degenerative disc disease, IBS, schizophrenia, DID, and other health issues. i am too disabled to hold down a conventional job. right now it is winter where i live and due to living in a high desert, the temperatures can get very low seemingly out of nowhere, so my electric bill has been a bit higher than when it is warmer, which means my money has had to stretch a little further.
thankfully, because my housing is through a government program, my rent is only $178/month right now. it may be subject to go up or down after the new year, depending on how much total income i made this year, as my rent is calculated based off of my earned income. either way, fortunately, it is very affordable
$0/$178
if you are interested in helping me, you can do so in the following ways. thank you to everyone who has read, shared and supported!

The anon who talked about their abuse by a trans man making them hate all trans men is almost laughable to me. I’m a trans man who was raped by a trans woman who had intentions to forcefully impregnate me as “proof” that I was nothing but a “confused girl.” So by that anons logic, I have all incentives to hate every trans woman on earth. I’ve had trans women grope me, threaten me with physical violence, steal my testosterone and other medication, and so on so forth. Those are all great reasons to hate an entire community, according to anon. Thank you, anon, for your support of my hatred 🫶
But instead of doing all that I just left the trans community lol. Still trans, just keeping to myself.
no one should hate an entire group like you've highlighted, but the double standard of "you can't personally dislike even 1 trans woman or else that makes you a transmisogynist" and "hating men is good i hate all men especially trans men this is allowed because all men are bad" is just staggering. like do people not see that their logic doesn't work in the inverse? it's not "okay" to hate men. if it's not okay to hate women, it's not okay to be men
why do we call one of these things misogyny and one of them good and normal?
i'm sorry that you've gone through that. i just want you to know that you're not alone. i've been threatened with corrective rape, groped, had items stolen from me, accused of being a rapist myself for sleeping with a trans woman, and have been physically assaulted by a trans woman for no reason other than she was pissed off at me for listening to music that was loud enough to bleed out of my headphones. that's it. i got hit with an object because my music was slightly too loud.
back in november of 2023 while i was couch surfing with a lesbian couple, i ended up having to sleep with my purse directly under my pillow at night so that my trans woman roommate couldn't steal anything out of it anymore. she was dependent on cannabis, and i had been given a small amount from a friend who grows and she got into my purse and stole some of the little bit of weed i had. and promised to pay me back and never did. i can't afford weed and used to use it medically so it really fucked me up that she stole something like that. cannabis at the time was one of my medications. i don't use it anymore because the cons outweigh the pros, but i was paranoid for weeks because of this. i was terrified my debit card or ID was going to go missing. you don't do that to a person, especially a paranoid schizophrenic.
she also would not stop trying to get me to have sex with her. when she met me, she asked me if i was "AFAB on T?" because she didn't see a bulge in my pants. i'm not afab. i'm intersex. i also just could've been tucking. or, i could've been a trans woman who got a vaginoplasty. according to other friends who knew her, she specifically targeted queer people with vaginas to try to sleep with them because that was her preferred set of genitals. it didn't matter if she liked the person, she would just desperately harass them and try to sleep with her and her girlfriend. she would gas them up and compliment them and then try to force them to into a threesome with her cis gf. she also was constantly begging people for money for "her cats" and then would spend it on soda and candy and then go right back to begging people for more money that she didn't use on anything she genuinely needed. she would literally let her cats go hungry and without litter for sometimes weeks at a time. she would try to force them to eat scambled eggs which none of them liked instead of just buying some fucking cat food. she would let the litter box get so bad they would just start shitting all over the house.
i had another girl needlessly sexualize me and try to get into a relationship and have sex with me when i outright told her i was not interested in her. i have to do specific stretches for my lower back, and whenever i would do a certain stretch that involves my ass being up in the air, she would get extremely horny and try to get me to sleep with her. she also would constantly talk down to me about everything, and literally told me to my face that she thought i didn't have DID because she didn't "notice" my switches. she told me i wasn't really plural and that her friend, another AMAB transfem, actually, really had DID. notice how the AMAB trans woman has a legitimate experience and is a reliable narrator, but someone with a vagina is suddenly stupid and faking.
she mocked me for having a psychotic episode where i was scared shitless and trapped under my blankets in my bed for around 8 hours because i was convinced a horror game character was in my house trying to kill me. she mocked the shit out of me for this. she also told me that me being physically disabled was a disadvantage to her while we were climbing down a steep mountain side heading back from some hot springs. she was a genuine asshole and never gave a shit about how i felt.
my ex GF would not stop guilting me and making me feel like shit for not having a biopenis. she would literally tell me about how i'm not a real man and how man = penis. she would not let go of the fact that i had a strap and that wasn't good enough for her, that it wasn't the same and that she needed a real dick. it made me feel so fucking bad because i have bottom dysphoria. i don't like being reminded that i don't have a biopenis. why would this ever be okay to do to another trans person? why would you torment someone over their dysphoria?
she came on to me. she was the one who initiated our relationship. she never used her words, she would just touch me. she kissed me on the neck one night while i was saying goodbye to her and it made me really uncomfortable. she had never tried to verbally come on to me or express that she found me attractive. she just went straight to touching. on multiple occasions, she intentionally flashed her genitals at me before we were ever together. at the time i didn't necessarily mind because i thought they were genuine accidents, and i thought she was cute so i just let it slide. but she kept doing it. she admitted to me that she wore specific outfits because she could flash people super easily. like this was intentional, predatory behavior. what if i had been doing that? i would've been called a predator and a danger.
but once she found out i had a vagina it was game over. she saw me as a cishet woman. and she accused me of being a rapist because one time, i accidentally squeezed her legs too hard while we were having sex. she screamed at me to stop, so i let go of her legs completely. she swore up and down that i forced her to stay in that sexual encounter after i let go of her legs. she was on top of me and i no longer had any type of grip or hold on her whatsoever, she could've gotten up and walked away but instead she started calling me a rapist and would not stop. she screamed it at me every single day until i was able to escape her. the reason i wear that black wrist brace in a lot of my photos is because of her. she screamed "rapist!" at me enough times in one morning that i became blinded with rage and punched my computer so hard i fractured my wrist. i had a massive hematoma and its almost been a full year since then and my wrist hasn't healed. like. at all. she kept threatening to make callout posts on instagram and to "tell everyone the truth" about me online... whatever that meant.
this shit genuinely hurts people. i don't know how to tell folks that trans men have feelings and you really, really need to care about them. like don't treat us like a cishet male stereotype, we're not stoic, emotionally dead brick walls. we experience pain just like you do. trans women can hurt trans men. trans women can hurt other trans women. trans women are capable of hurting people, too we have to stop this.
woman does not = defenseless and harmless.
man does not = predator and dangerous.
i'm sorry you've had to leave the community because of this. so many trans men have left to just be on their own and i'm so sorry it has come to this, but it's okay to do so. if you need to fly solo for your mental health, go for it. none of this petty infighting is worth listening to. it's a nothing burger situation.

Kind of a hot take but i dont think we can solve the issue of marginalized people being treated like children without asking ourselves why we treat children like subhuman objects incapable of thinking and undeserving of autonomy

Trans and intersex people in the UK need you to be loud and angry about the new "deception as to sex" guidance released which makes trans and intersex people legally guilty of rape if we don't disclose our gender identity and/or the sex we were assigned at birth to sexual partners.
This is particularly going to harm trans and intersex sex workers, who often have a higher number of sexual partners who we might keep our trans or intersex identity from for our safety.
"To summarize this guidance in the simplest terms, it treats a trans or intersex person not disclosing their gender identity and/or the sex they were assigned at birth as a form of deception which negates consent."
"This interpretation of part of the existing Sexual Offences Act (2003) places an unreasonable burden on trans and intersex people to inform our sexual partners of our medical history, while no such burden is placed on cis perisex people who are allowed to rely on assumption."

Hello, my niece made this account for me and said I should submit my question to your blog. I’m terribly sorry if this doesn’t belong here. I turned 65 this year and have recently come to accept that I am gay. I have never been on a date with anyone in my life and have never had a social circle. I was only ever close to my brother and sister-in-law and their kids. I only came out to my niece because she’s 30 and bisexual and has been a safe person to talk to, but she has been trying to encourage me to go to a group that she has gone to before. It’s a group that meets at a coffee shop in our city and is for the local lgbtq community. Allies can attend so I don’t have to come out, but I’m scared I will want to. I feel too far past my time to join the community or have a “first boyfriend.” Am I too old for all of this?
this absolutely belongs here, i'm glad your niece helped you create an account here to get some advice, i'm actually really touched!! this warmed my heart a lot
you are DEFINITELY not too old for this!! no one is ever too old for community! elder queers are some of the most important members of our community- if anything, if you go, younger queer people will be over the moon to see someone your age, still identifying as queer, still living, still wanting to be yourself and to accept who you are. it's nerve wracking at first to think about. i joined my college's pride group when i was around 19 or so, and i was scared to death. i also felt like i didn't belong. i think a lot of queer people go through that, you are not alone! it's unfamiliar to you. you're taking a big step in life, change can be downright frightening even if it's what we want
i have met lots of people your age who did not realize they were gay, lesbian, trans, bi, or any other type of queer until much later in life! i've known trans men who didn't figure themselves out and start T until they were in their 70s! i met a trans woman last night who didn't realize she was trans until she turned 60! i think that coffee shop would be absolutely delighted to have you! you don't have to out yourself at all, but if you find yourself feeling comfortable enough to share, please feel free to. your story deserves to be heard. you deserve to be able to express yourself in a welcoming environment!
i hope you're able to go, i think that sounds like it would be very healing for you! i'm really proud of you for realizing who you are and accepting it, and i'm glad your niece is able to be there for you! i genuinely teared up reading this. you are a blessing on our community, not a burden. you will never be too old to be yourself, and surround yourself with people who get you. take care of yourself, okay? please feel free to stop by at any point! i am so happy for you and would love to hear how things go if you do decide to hang out at that coffee shop!
some wonderful additions:
