men can't be lesbians. For that to be possible, they'd have to defeat the 7 evil lesbians

That's what I had to do, I'm not telling you who those 7 are tho that's cheating.

[cloudboundcritters]

"I support lesboys as long they are not cisgender MEN" 🤦‍♂️

sorry buddy but i have something to tell you. intersex lesboys who are cis men exist, multigender lesboys who are cis men exist, and cistrans lesboys exist. (these are examples of cis lesboys that came up first, feel free to add more)

besides, even if every single cis lesboy on the planet is perisex and monogender, why do you immediately assume they are "creepy men invading lesbian spaces" or some shit like that?

[theyhitthepentagon]

in spite of all whove come to think otherwise, you are still no less deserving of love than you were a year ago

[fun-eralsss]

thank you!

being intersex is quite possibly the most isolating thing i’ve ever experienced. all my life, i felt alone. that no one in the world knew what was wrong with me. that i was a weird, abnormal freak.

i felt horrible. and so, i made sure that i would make people like me feel seen

every day, i see people sharing the terms i created, talking about how relatable they are. when i first saw someone talking about how seen they felt (i love you smilepilled!!!!) my heart was a damn opera, it was singing so much!

while things are pretty bad right now, i’m grateful to have provided a little bit of comfort to those who need it

with that being said…

i love you “broken women”

i love you “failed men”

i love you “deformed weirdos”

i love you “DSD males”

i love you “DSD females”

i love you “irl futa(nari)s”

i love you hermaphrodites (with attitude!)

i love you diseased freaks

i love you XTFs

i love you XTMs

i love you XTXs

i love you AMAB transmascs

i love you AFAB transfems

i love you trans intersex people

i love you ipsogender people

i love you ultergender people

i love you cistrans people

i love you intersex people <3

intersexuals; the best thing since sliced bread!

[lamengga]

i love being cistrans!!!

The way some people don't even TRY to think about sexualities or genders more deeper then just "cis and trans people" is insane like they'll only think about binary trans women and men and binary women and men but like y'know what type of binary I mean, right? Everyone completely forgets multigender people exist or abrosexual/fluid sexuality, nonbinary people in general and it pisses me off! Some people will even act like they support multigender people and nonbinary people, maybe also abrosexual people and try to be "inclusive" but when there's a complex identity, they think like a caveman!

"women are non men and never men! And men? Same thing! Nonbinary people? Don't exist right now cause I'm caveman brain right now, and cis? Nope no one else can be cis except 100% binary cishet people and multigender? What's that?? And identifying with your gender at birth? Only cis people do that! And cis people can't EVER be trans!" LIKE OMG SHUT UP!

like I swear someone on fuckin TikTok or Pinterest could hear something like...I don't know a flag for people who identify with their gender at birth but are also trans and immediately forget nonbinary people and multigender people exist!!

If you’re intersex and your relationship to being trans and/or cis is complicated, that’s okay.

Perisex people, trans or cis, have no say in how an intersex person experiences their intersex variation in context with their sex and gender identity.

So many intersex people have complicated and nuanced relationships to sex and gender.

Many of us will go from having experiences that are close to trans ones to having experiences that are closer to cis ones. Or vice versa, or transmasc experiences to transfem, or literally any other combination. And these experiences may impact identity. I’ve spoken to intersex people who have stopped identifying as trans, who have gone from identifying as transfem to transmasc, who have begun identifying as transfemmasc, who have stopped identify as transfemmasc and started identifying exclusively as transfem.

A perisex person screaming that you can only be a woman or a man, trans or cis, if you have X, Y, or Z trait is a bigot.

You’re allowed to be yourself and use the words that best describe your own life.

Being gender non conforming and cis doesn’t mean somebody is a trans egg AND also they are not a traitor to their previous identity if they end up being one.

Being gender non conforming and trans doesn’t mean somebody is about to detransition AND they are not a traitor if they end up detransitioning.

Being a man and a woman or any other kind of multigender is not a contradictory state of being, likewise. Being isogender or cistrans is a fine thing to be and I love you.

Throw off the shackles that suggest you must be one or the other and that transformation of any kind is a betrayal of how you once were.

[ugly-anarchist]

While yes intersex people can use intersex as their gender identity, that isn't what intersex is. Intersex is a natural biological variation that cannot be transitioned into or out of. It is a description of the natural state of our bodies. It is the same as me being autistic, white, and short. These are descriptions of things about me that I cannot change but are still important facets of my life as a human being. (Obviously some are more important than others)

(While the body can be changed, there are separate words for someone who willingly changes the natural state of their body, like altersex. Intersex people can also be altersex.)

On the other hand, gender identity and transness are personal identifiers that can be chosen. (And by chosen I mean that while you can't choose your gender you can choose the label you use for it) And it is also fluid and can change over time. Gender looks different for everyone and isn't based on any material thing that can be observed in the physical world. Gender is based more-so in what makes you happiest, and the most satisfied with your life. Gender is just as real as everything else I've mentioned, but it's just not a physical thing.

This is why transness is self determined and intersexuality is not.

Trans and cis are adjectives that describe a person's experience with their gender. A trans man/woman is just a man/woman who has a different experience with their gender than cis people do.

But if a person exists who is rejected by both cis and trans people, then what are they? What are they supposed to do? How are they supposed to identify? Cis and trans as labels were not designed with intersex people in mind and often do not fit our experiences, but we're forced to use this binary because perisex trans people insist that you must be one if you're not the other.

But, trans people also insist that being intersex is inherently trans. Any deviation from the sex binary is seen as trans. Intersex history is seen as trans history, intersex animals are called biologically trans, and intersex experiences and terms are often taken by trans people and applied to themselves.

We're inherently trans but the trans experience is inherently a perisex one. Our experiences are identical to trans experiences but only trans people are allowed to say that. Our bodies are deemed the ideal trans bodies but the natural state of our bodies is used as proof that we don't fit in with trans people. Trans people wish they could gain access to the violence done to our bodies. Our bodies are held up as proof that gender and sex is a spectrum but if we talk about our complicated experiences with sex and gender then we're called terf psyops and cis invaders.

Where exactly are intersex people supposed to fit into the trans/cis binary? Our experiences cannot be defined in the same way that perisex trans people define themselves.

When an intersex person identifies as transfem when they were afab or as transmasc while they were amab or calls themselves cistrans or transmascfem or transfemmasc, this isn't an attempt to invade spaces we don't belong or destroy the trans community. We're trying to describe our very complicated experiences with gender with the limited tools that we have, the tools that have been forced on us but simultaneously denied to us.

Can we just let intersex trans people have their weird gender labels in peace? This isn't about you, it's not an attack on you or your community, it's just us trying to exist comfortably.

its important that u all understand that if "some girls have facial hair" is normal and good, then "some girls want to have facial hair" is also normal and good. wanting to have facial hair/a deep voice/big muscles/a flat chest isn't always indicative of being a man. im cistrans, im a girl, i wanna look like hasan piker. i still dont wanna be perceived as male, i still dont wanna be referred to as he/him, i just wanna be a girl that looks like hasan piker. that doesnt change the fact that im a girl
