really love that for the metron design they went with "androgynous angel dressed head to toe in glitter"
#played by a cis woman#sites call them a “male metron” though#so interesting#i feel this is never talked about but is actually super forward thinking???#like they were clearly going for genderless#what a perfect blend of “feminine” and “masculine” presentation#for superior beings who have advanced past violence and division and hate#ugh i love this show#even if it wasn't intentional and is just a cheap costume#i still love it#LOOK HOW JIM IS LOOKING AT THEM TOOOOOOOO#star trek#star trek tos#star trek the original series#captain kirk#james t kirk#jim kirk#arena#star trek arena#costume design#trans#gender#enby#representation#please don't think i'm praising this as ACTUAL representation#but for the time and in context#i just think it's neat

i hope the magic of being trans never dies. i dont think it will
#had a long talk with my mom over dinner#about my transition and me being an egg since i was 6 and about the climate in america and about my orchiectomy and insurance and my name#change and her experiences with trans people#its so wonderful how supportive shes been ever since i came out a couple years ago. im really happy#she literally said if our state bans trans care or anything we can move to the next state over

Being transmasc is kinda cool but also the horrors
#it really seems impossible to have any type of meaningful community to be real#because it's like. impossible to convince people that you're not just actually a misogynistic self-hating girl#or a poser / misguided girl who wants clout (??????????)#so. if it's impossible to assert yourself as trans‚ it's impossible to talk about *being* trans without people treating it like.#you're talking over REAL trans people. hell world#forever thinking of that one 'i hope you enjoy what i couldn't post because/#someone got SO mad about it in my inbox. And at the end of the day the reasoning was like...#'you're making it (??) about you 🙄'#and it's like ... what......... what it

Periodic reminder that unless a person specifically and clearly tells you it is okay to tell others they are trans or queer, you should err on the side of caution and assume they do not want you to tell people (especially random people!) about their transness or queerness.
You have no idea, generally, why somebody doesn't talk openly about their trans or queer status, and you have no idea, truly, how somebody might react to that information. The most progressive person out there is still capable of harbouring incredibly negative thoughts about somebody's queer status.
#lesbian#gay#bi#bisexual#trans#transgender#queer#lgbt#lgbtq#ally advice#inspired after somebody at work outed me (again ×3)#i don't care how 'safe' you assume they will be! you cannot TRULY guarantee their safety!#you are effectively gambling with somebody's safety by assuming you can out them#also even if their safety was somehow 100% guaranteed it is still not your place to dictate what others know about THEM#like it isn't your own information you are giving out. the other person is a real human being with real thoughts...#...and there are real ramifications to your actions! this is like... real life and like... real people#anyway. i'm still fucking horrified at how cool people are (at least wrt me) with outing others 🙃🫠#and it just... further reminds me that others see me as like... a thing to be talked about/over and i'm not seen as an autonomous human#maybe that's not their intentions 9/10 times but that still doesn't justify it nor does it change how i interpret that behaviour 👍#it's just dehumanizing imo to be reminded 'your comfort DOESN'T MATTER. i think you should be talked ABOUT not TO.'#clarification for the first tag: this is the THIRD time somebody has outed me. i NEVER talk about being trans to... pretty much ANYBODY irl#it's shit like this that i have to resist taking the 'doompill' over#because it's scary and dehumanizing every. single. time. i feel so fucking scared each time#because - AGAIN - i know my safety will NEVER be guaranteed because i am trans and queer

high male suicide rate: epidemic 😵💫
high trans suicide rate: genocide 😵
high suicide rate among porn stars: (silence)
#and lets definitely not talk about why the first two ones are supposedly high#men choosing more violent methods and trying to dodge accountability#and trans people being lied to they can change sex and it will save them but then they realise it isnt and doesnt#but whatever#shitpost

I need more perryshmirtz fanfics from Perry's POV where he's always thinking "how can anyone think this man is evil?? Look at him, he’s a wet cat"
I also need more fanfics with the tag "accidental baby acquisition", I just love reading father Heinz Doofenshmirtz in action, Vanessa being a big sister and Perry being a simp (someone at OWCA leaves an "Im not the stepdad Im the dad that stepped up" mug at Perry's desk)
#simp Perry is my favorite Perry#perry the human#human perry#perryshmirtz#perry the platypus#heinz doofenshmirtz#god I wish I was a writer too#but I only have the drawing type of artist gene#I wonder if Peter would go give the baby a few gifts#fanfic prompt#it could also be an accidental pregnancy fic but I understad that's not everyone's cup of tea#in this case it would either be a omegaverse/abo AU type of situation or a trans headcanon#I swear I saw someone here talking about omega Heinz being the one that carried Vanessa - I'm not opposed to the idea

hmmm... halfbaked thought percolating in my mind but i gotta say. sometimes i do get kinda skeeved out when people do genderfluid tim wrt timkon while leaving kon as just a generic cis guy. like obviously i love timkon and i love trans tims!!! but sometimes i just go are we sure we're not just slapping on a trans label in order to put the shorter, physically weaker, (and often drawn paler) guy in a dress so he can be The Girl in the relationship? like are we sure this is actually about being trans and not just about gender roles again? and like obviously i cant say every single genderfluid tim wrt timkon post is doing this specifically but it does sometimes make me go eeehhhh... (a lot of the way fandom treats trans guys in general as women lite™ is this same way tbh.) sigh...
#rimi talks#this is kind of apropos of nothing ive just been pondering on why this hc doesnt always sit right w me#and its rly just when its paired with timkon + specifically cis guy kon who u clearly have not thought abt in a trans context at all#and like thats whatever not everyone has read his comics and cares about him. but.#it's just like . hmhmhmmm the way a lot of fanon timkon skews so hard into weird gender roles just already has me on my guard#and then the way fandom gets Weird about trans people on top of it#like is he genderfluid because it actually is about his identity and his gender?#or is genderfluid the new way to be like hehe hes a woman w/o actually Being a woman#i feel like im phrasing this kind of clumsily bc i have a migraine bleugh but like...#bc i mean. i LOVE trans hcs u have seen my ao3 page. i just ... as a nb person sometimes go hhmmmm#anyways. t4t timkon rights

I hate you mfs that don't like Gwen after across the spider verse it smells like misogyny
#i liked her MORE after atsv#like yeah she needs to apologize to miles duh#but why is she not allowed to make mistakes without being villanized#ive heard more people talk about how bad gwen is than fucking Miguel#shes CLEARLY being influenced if not manipulated by Miguel and jess#shes only doing those things because she wants to PROTECT miles#she doesnt want what Miguel is saying to be true#like yall im p sure she fully accepted that her dad was going to die#they had to have said some shit to make her accept that#and at the end shes trying to right her wrongs#shes become such a more nuanced character than she was in the first movie#why are you guys fucking stupid#AND shes trans shes literally amazing#gwen stacy#spiderverse#spider man across the spider verse#across the spiderverse#spider gwen#marvel

Something I love that some trans people do is talk about their pre-transition selves with no context as to their transition.
Like, if a trans woman talks about her past by saying, "when I was in Boy Scouts..." and never elaborates that she's trans and that there was a time where she was a boy scout. I just think that kind of normalization is great (and honestly, it can be funny when others are like "a GIRL in the BOY scouts?????? My life is changed")
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#ftm#mtf#nonbinary#i think normalization can/should look like being able to talk abour yourself pre-transition without couching it in 'i am trans. i am trans'#like that's not the focus of the story obviously!!! let the women talk about being in boy scouts without fear and explanation gddamnit!!!

everybody's fighting god in a parking lot until god's pr team invents a cute enough mascot i guess
#this is exactly the shit i'm talking about with people treating religious trauma or anger as a fucking trend#as soon as it's not the zeitgeist anymore people just go right back to not giving a shit#also love that we're bullying trans people on tumblr for being Freaks™️ then cooing over#the catholic fucking church making a child mascot#but it's just soooo cute HAD to make fanart 🥺🥺🥺 (and chase that algorithm clout 🥺🥺🥺)

god i need to write more fics that at least tangentially get into gender. because i know that timkon are t4t in every fic i write but it doesnt always come up. and god knows its just me peddling my little rowboat alone in the t4t timkon waters. 😭 i gotta... i gotta keep kontributing... the trans tim and nonbinary kon tags, they need me...
#rimi talks#deeply unfortunate that the trans tim tag is full of bat/cest ships and also transphobia.#what about people (me) who want tim to simply be a trans guy who's simply a freak and it's not bc he's trans it's just his nature#and then theres the nb kon tag. which like all kon tags is populated by people who havent actually read konmics. sad#at least it's better in there than the trans tim tag but still. low bar#BUT HES LITERALLY KONBINARY.#theres a whole saga in my mind about kon's gender journey inspiring tim to actually stop holding onto --#-- the kinda rigid boxes of gender labels and ideas about presentation that he holds himself to bc of his dad's influence#like tim at age 30 is much more comfortable being gnc than tim at age 16#tim at age 16 would see tim at age 30 lounging around in a skirt and legwarmers and feel so betrayed#tim at age 30 is just like im a dude no matter what i wear and im comfy and i stole my husbands skirt. cope#its about the growth they go through together. and making each other better. and also about transgenderisms. and#(and then i peek outside my bubble and remember that jesus god the trans tim tag is a nightmare!!!! AUGH!!!)#i gotta write more t4t timkon. its just me and my little rowboat against the world

Being a Forcefem hacker really got so easy since July
Back in my day we had to take over their YouTube account, make it push femboy videos, push TG comics on their twitters, make them win Guilty Gear give always, put Blahaj’s in their carts when shopping for furniture, make up tutorials, cosplay guides, so so much effort for just one cute girl
Now all I do is take over the pc, put on “I watched the TV glow” and it does the rest
#back in the day we had phases!!!#I had to gradually introduce them to being an Ally#who just cares a lot about trans folks#then make them intrastate in femboys#maybe take a side step in furry-dom#and only THEN could I make the final step to getting her to admit her girlhood#but *noooo* now all we need is one movie#no blackmail#not even a forceful takeover!#just put it on and it does the rest!!!#kids these days have it so easy#but I can’t deny results :/#.#gentle#forcefem#i-like-talking#..#GO WATCH I THE TV GLOW RIGHT NOW!!!#DO IT!!!!!

i’m stealth in college so no one besides the accessibility office knows i’m a trans man, like the beard and buzzcut and voice and the other ways my body has been changed by 5 years on T and top surgery make people just think that i’m a “cis” man, and i’m friends with these two girls in my quantitative reasoning class and i complimented one of their outfits and made a joke about how i would probably wear it if i didn’t wanna deal with people’s bullshit and she goes “oh you know it’s okay for guys to explore their gender? you don’t have to fit into a mold society put you in based on being born male” and i’m like thanks for the sentiment and i do need to remember this as a trans man who is still exploring his fashion sense, but trust me when i say I KNOW so like ill just be over here internally screaming (but hey at least i know she’s cool about it if i did come out)
#when you do an FTM transition so hard and so well that people think you’re cis#and they tell you that being trans is a thing and it’s okay if you (who they think was amab) want to transition into a woman or be nonbinary#she’s on the right track tho#because i do consider myself genderqueer alongside being a man#and while i’m stealth about my gender#i give zero shits about talking about my bisexuality lol#and like? everyone knew i was trans in HS bc like i started my transition halfway through#and now a grand total of two people on campus know#fuckin bonkers lol#- r

One of the biggest things that makes me see Leo as trans is absolutely the size of his carapace in comparison to his brothers’.
And I’m not talking about height! I’m specifically looking at his shell here, because when you compare him to the others, particularly Donnie who is nearly the same height as Leo, it’s very clear that Leo’s carapace is much longer in proportion to the rest of his body.
Like - standing side by side, even though Donnie is shorter his carapace ends noticeably higher up than Leo’s does. And I like this not only because it really helps push the idea that Leo could very likely be trans (or intersex!), but it’s also just a fun design difference between them.
(It also lends way to future scenarios of Donnie eventually getting taller than Leo, but sitting down still has Leo being the taller one haha.)
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#trans leonardo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#trans leo#it’s like 4 am and I’m having trans leo feelings again sorry guys#totally get if other people disagree with me on this! but it’s always gonna be my no.1 headcanon fr#his complexion the vibrancy of his colors staying even in adulthood his general demeanor and this? this hc is LOCKED in my brain#plus the times Leo’s depicted in pink white and blue throughout the series like I KNOW it wasn’t on purpose but damn if it doesn’t help#(his nails are also the exact same as his toe nails/claws but I don’t super count this one tbh)#(even though it is TECHNICALLY another point in favor of trans leo)#(mainly because all the boys’ nails are very much more humanoid than turtle)#(just like how their tails aren’t really a factor either since we see them only in their baby forms and never again)#I really like the idea that he was a female red eared slider pre mutation#and Lou Jitsu’s dna paved how his humanoid features came out (aka a more masculine build and voice)#but his turtle features are all very much more in like with a female res#love the thought of rise bros meeting og comic turtle boys and Leo being like wait you guys are res too?? but…you’re not colorful……#one headcanon I have is that - you know the cute chirping and stuff we have the boys do?#I like to think that Leo’s chirping actually sounds more feminine to himself and his bros (so he tends to not do it)#idk I love thinking about this hc a lot and there’s no time like four am to talk about it huh?#future scenario has future Donnie going up to future Leo all smug like ah Nardo how’s the weather down there#and Leo’s all like good *sits down* why don’t you join me :)#Donnie: …*sits and stretches his neck out to be taller still*#Leo calls him a cheater but Donnie calls it ‘making use of his species’s advantages’#but yeah basically for many turtles the case is - bigger carapace? female. smaller carapace? male.#so it’s very interesting to take that knowledge and apply it here#did you know one of the turtles that this rule of thumb DOESNT apply to is alligator snapping turtles? male ones are the bigger ones there!#by a big difference too so Raph’s size makes a LOT of sense
