Do any other pre t trans dudes have zero idea what kind of man they want to be? Like there’s a goal there somewhere but you have no idea what it is, you know that transitioning will get you closer to the answer, you’re just not sure how it will do that and sometimes you worry if it even will

my dream is to be called "boy" in the sense of a burly man talking demeaningly to a servant kid in the 1600s

ie "come hither, boy" "watch your mouth boy"

everyone says that it's okay not to have your gender figured out right away, which is true, but can someone just admit how badly it fucking sucks?? it's not about transitioning, or deciding on pronouns, or changing the clothes you wear. it's about knowing what the rest of your life is going to look like. what you want the rest of your life to look like. i have no stable footing in understanding what i am.

it's terrifying.

A comic I made to remind you that interests aren’t gendered! Like what you want to like! 🏳️‍⚧️

hug a trans dude today. tell him he looks good. tell him you see him and value him. ask him about his gender. ask him about his day. ask him about how he's doing. ask him about his hopes for the future. connect with him. please.

Idk what trans man needs to hear this but you're NOT evil or disgusting for being a man. You do NOT have to suffer for the sins of the patriarchy committed by cis dudes. Being a man doesn't invalidate the misogyny you experienced growing up or experience now. Being a man doesn't mean you deserve to be isolated. Being a man doesn't mean you're inherently predatory or scary. You didn't "choose" this, and finding your true self is NOT "betraying the community" because you happen to be a man and/or masculine rather than a woman and/or feminine. You ARE allowed to be upset when people "affirm" your gender by malgendering you.

You DO deserve a community that uplifts you. You DO deserve to experience trans joy. You DO deserve to have your voices heard and your struggles recognized. Wanting the bare minimum of solidarity is NOT "making everything about trans men".

I need to know

What gives you gender euphoria? Can I give it to you? Because each and every one of you is so precious, so amazing, so full of love to give. You deserve it. You're valid. And it doesn't matter how far into your transition you are, because you are cute and beautiful/handsome, and you are so much stronger than you know. You're going to make it. I'm not the only one who believes in you 🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Affirmation 12/24

There is no wrong way to be trans.

If you have a sneaky mean brain that tells you that you aren’t really trans, that your desires are not valid, that your gender is not valid…well, it’s wrong.

What might change for you if you entertained the idea that your transness was valid?

benedict bridgerton is pansexual, confirmed!

actor luke thompson: by our modern terms, the closest [descriptor] would be something along the lines of pansexuality — being attracted to the way that someone thinks and feels, regardless of gender. that’s a word that could be used.

showrunner jess brownell: in modern terms, he might be described as pansexual, someone for whom gender doesn’t really matter.

showrunner jess brownell: i knew that people out there had a feeling benedict might be queer. and personally, it made sense to me. he’s not just open minded, it’s that he seems like the type of person who wouldn’t be as concerned with gender — someone who might be more fluid and pansexual.

showrunner jess brownell: [the show’s writers] talk about him as being pansexual [and] the idea that for him, gender is not that important when he is finding attraction.

four different times he's been described as pansexual this month. happy pride, indeed! 💗💛💙
