#Fuck transphobia

[genderqueerpositivity]

I did a thing with some transphobic comments that I had the misfortune of seeing with my own two eyes on TDoV.

There are screenshots below, the usernames and profile pictures have been covered up with colorful scribbles, as well as most of the text of the comment, leaving behind only a few words with a very different meaning than the original intent of the comments.

(you are not your DNA You can be transgender)

(Respect and love means affirming someone's truth)

(Biological sex is a mistake.)

[chaoticace2005]

Expensive way to get addressed properly: become a “Dr.” of sorts so people don’t misgender with the “Mr” or “Mrs” or “Ms” or complain about “Mx”

You won’t respect my gender identity or even the potential forms filled out stating such? Fine. But a lot of people tend to respect a degree. (Which is so classist because imagine getting more respect based on your degree than who you are, oh wait, you don’t have to imagine that.)

“So Ms. Smith-“

“Hey, actually I-“

“I know you claim you’re ‘non binary’ or something but I won’t use Mx, that’s not real!”

“Oh I was actually gonna say I’m a doctor…”

“Oh, sorry, DOCTOR Smith.”

(Also there’s the issue of asking to be referred to as “doctor” if you’re viewed as male vs female (aka “you’re so pretentious”) but that’s a whole separate conversation.)

You won’t admit I’m a genderqueer? Fine. My gender is now doctor.

BREAKING 🚨🚨🚨

David Tennant responds to backlash against pro-trans t-shirt.

I'll be fine. Terfs can't climb the stairs and I still have my sonic screwdriver.

Below is a photo of David Tennant in a black pro-Trans t-shirt worn with a blue suit. The t-shirt logo (in hot pink) reads: Leave Trans Kids Alone You Absolute Freaks.]

”If I could draw I’d draw fanarts!”

“If I could draw I’d draw my OCs”

“If I could paint I’d paint all the ideas in my head and become rich!”

If I could draw and paint I would completely erase this portrait of J.K Rowling in a book from my childhood, and draw a picture of Imane Khelif there instead.

This is my copy and it’s in Swedish, btw.

The original title of this book is Good Night Stories For Rebel Girls 2. It’s the second book out of two. This is the first one.

These two books were my childhood. Do you have any idea how empowering it is for a young girl like me, feeling alone in a world that seems to become crueller by the day, a girl who feels unheard by adults, to read these kind of books? I have plenty other books like these, too! These were my two favourites.

Two books filled with strong, powerful and cool women who have changed the world in one way or another! Reading these books inspired me so, so much as a little girl. I couldn’t get enough of these two-page stories about women who were brave and stood up for what was right. Women from so many different countries and backgrounds. It was beautiful. These books were how I found out about most of my biggest idols today: Malala Yousafzai, Greta Thunberg, Anne Frank, Emma Watson etc.

As I said, these books are my childhood. Another series of books that played a huge part of my childhood are the Harry Potter books.

As a little kid, I had no idea about who Joanne truly was. All I knew was that she was an author, and I dreamed about becoming an author one day. And Joanne had written one of my favourite series of all time. Of course I looked up to her! I especially remember looking at the drawing of her in Good Night Stories For Rebel Girls 2, admiring it very much.

I have grown up. I still love Harry Potter, the series played a massive role in my childhood and it’s been there to comfort me in my hardest times. But I do not support the author, now that I’ve heard about and read the tweets she has made about trans women. It’s disgusting, what she’s said about trans women in the past, what she still says, and what she’s tweeted about Imane Khelif recently… I’ve knows for years now what she’s all about.

It hurts, you know. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, it hurts to know that the series I love so dearly, the series that always makes me feel better, is written by a person who has no respect whatsoever towards half of my friend group and other trans people. None. She is a horrible human being, and it hurts to know that.

Knowing that her face, her name and her story is written in yet another book in my bookshelf, that her presence is constant in my room, makes me sick to my stomach and has done so for a long time now. Ever since I remembered a while back that she’s in this book, this wonderful book about women who have made the world a better place and continue fighting daily, women I look up to so much… I’ve had this sick feeling in my stomach, because she does not belong in this book. She isn’t a feminist. She excludes trans women from womanhood and accuses cis women of being trans or intersex based on their strength and talent in sports. Based on a supposed high level of testosterone? Joanne is cruel, and she’s rude, and she is not a person kids should be taught to look up to. Not after all she’s done.

Earlier today, I was thinking about this again. And as so many times before, I wished that I myself was a talented artist. This is something I’ve thought about before, but for different reasons. I’ve always wished I could draw portraits and pretty paintings. Fanarts for my favourite ships that I can only picture in my head but not transfer to paper. I’ve always loved drawing, but I’ve never been too good at it. Now I desperately wish that I was.

Because if I was a talented artist, I would grab my pens and paint and brushes, and I would cover up the portrait of J. K Rowling in my book. I would make a whole new portrait in its place, a portrait of another woman I look up to, a strong and beautiful and brave woman. A women called Imane Khelif.

And I’d get rid of the page full of facts and stories about Rowling, I’d tear it apart and throw it away and replace it with the story of Imane Khelif, the one woman Rowling cannot tolerate because of her talent for boxing. I can write. I can’t draw, but I can write. I so wish I could do both right now, because if I truly could trust myself with fully remaking two book pages, I would do it without hesitation.

Imane Khelif’s story deserves to be told. J.K Rowling’s story deserves to be told with seriousness, and grief because of what she has become. This woman could have been a successful author and a beloved feminist, and she could have left it at that. Sadly, she chose a path of hatred and cyber bullying. She chose this journey for herself, and I am sorry for everyone who got their childhood ruined because of it. Heck, I’m sorry for her even, but I still know in my heart that she has no excuses for what she has done. I despise her.

Kids need to be warned about TERFs, not trans women.

Collage made by @thingsmk1120sayz (I will delete it immediately if you ask me to, love <3)

I stand by Imane Khelif. I stand by the girls who grew up to be strong and wonderful women, the women who made their childhood dreams reality and won medals in the Olympics, the women who became successful artists, the women who reached their goals and ended up writing bestseller books loved by generations.

I stand by them, and I love them. But I feel nothing but hatred and pity towards J. K Rowling. Fuck her twisted beliefs. Much love to Imane Khelif!

Edit: I would like to clarify, Good Night Stories For Rebel Girls 2 was released 2017. I have no idea when Joanne started spreading her transphobic views on social media. Feel free to educate me on reblogs and comments! Anyways, I don’t think that the authors of this book, Elena Favilli and Francesca Cavallo, meant to cause any harm by putting Rowling in their book. Either this was before Rowling started tweeting transphobic things, or the authors didn’t know about her being a TERF (I doubt the latter). So please don’t send any hate to these wonderful authors! If you want to send them questions regarding their books, I’m pretty sure you’re free to do so! xx

Life feels bleak right now.

[the-trans-man-with-no-plan]

lol you women really wish you could. if any actual biological men pretend like they accept you as a man it’s because they want to sleep with you bc there’s something about being a man we allllll know you will never understand

Okay, okay, normally I just delete these because they're stupid BUT - I'm straight. I do not date or sleep with men. All my friends who are straight, cisgender men are well aware of this fact. And they're not really interested in sleeping with me anyway. Facial hair doesn't really get them going. Calling me a woman implies you also consider trans women "biological men," and I don't think they accept me because they want to sleep with me.

There are absolutely things about being raised as a boy that I will not be able to understand, that much is true. But if you are referring to: - Being raised with emotional suppression. I was raised by a narcissistic, abusive father. Emotional expression was not a thing around him for me or my cisgender brother. - "Trouble" dating. I'm barely 5'5, I would not be considered conventionally attractive. I just happen to respect women, and people in general. Believe are not, a lot of women kind of like when the guys they're into aren't total douchebags who clench their fists every time they walk past someone with a rainbow on their shirt - The common idea many cisgender men have that they are unable to control their rage. I am being pumped full of testosterone. For AMAB people, puberty lasts about 2-5 years. My HRT puberty lasted for a year. I received the hormones at least twice as fast as the majority of cisgender men (oddly enough, I've never met a transwoman who has the rage issue), meaning I was getting much more testosterone at once. At no point did I have trouble controlling my anger, even with severe PTSD. - Anatomy. Who gives a fuck? Seriously. Why do you care if I have a dick or not?

I am a man. I have been socially presenting as male since age 15. I know the expectations, I know the social rules, and I am expected to follow them just as much as any cisgender man is. Yes, there are things I will never understand about being raised as a boy and things I do understand about being raised a girl. That does not take away from the person I am today or the person I have always been inside. To all the trans people reading this, remember this; You are not your body. The consciousness, thoughts, feelings, gender itself, is all in the brain. Your brain knows who you are, your body does not. Your body can never take away from who you are, despite what anyone says.

"its human nature to be capitalist"

its not my nature?

its not A LOT of peoples nature

ACTUALLY its so against nature that its destroying our planet

ur saying u/others WANT to be scraping together pennies to be able to make it through to the next paycheck? SERIOUSLY??

"but its our nature to hate things/people that are different"

no the fuck its not?

people decided on a norm of society because that norm gave them power

and that is so deep ingrained in ur bootlicking brain u cant possibly comprehend that it isnt normal to hate someone for no fucking reason?

[tallyhall-lyrics-that-match]

UGH. Wish I knew about this ahead of time.

Well, at-least we know nobody should feel bad for yo-ho-ho-ing any one of these games now. Fuck you warner bros.

(also considering warner bros keeps putting out harry potter games, I think that's just another reason people should "shiver me timbers" their games.)

Hey, can we talk about Clone Trooper Sister?

Before I start, I love the idea of a trans clone trooper. This is a pro Sister blog!!!

What I want to talk about is how annoyed I am at people who complain about Sister by saying "Wouldn't the Kaminoans decommission her once they realized she was a deviant clone?"

No. They wouldn't. For the same reason they don't decommission all the other clones for having different personalities (and probably several with some neurospiciness going on).

Correct me if I'm wrong, but once the Kaminoans realized that the clones all had different personalities didn't they want to decommission them all and start over? It was Jango Fett stepping in and convincing them that those differences were a strength that stopped them.

Every clone has the same face, the same body, the same voice (thank you DBB❤️), the same blood. But the fact that they all have different personalities shows they don't all have the same brain. They're all wired differently. With that doesn't it make sense that there would be some trans troopers? There were, like, 6+ MILLION clones made? Even if less than 1% of clones were trans that's still thousands! The fact that there's only one in the canon so far is the unbelievable part!

It just irks me that people try to argue against Sister's existence with Star Wars lore when the lore would support her! I know they're just trying to justify their transphobia but they're doing it stupidly!!!

ALL HAIL SISTER!!!🏳️‍⚧️

[sushisusii]

This may be the end of woofer, oh no

It appears I've pissed the transphobes on twitter off. Imagine that, fucking hilarious honestly.

Told them off about how they can't follow me while actively hating my existence.

Gay furries against trans people is the dumbest shit. Imagine being so low at the food chain you gotta be a lgb without the T 'pick me' for the bigoted straight's. Like hello, the moment they finish attacking trans people, their coming after the gay's dumbass.

[yourlocalbadgerscales]

ATTENTION Y’ALL

@/joannerowling is a jkr supporter and a transphobe! I thought they were joking around but sadly not.

Block them and stay safe :3

[thatheathen]

The vile transphobic cult told us it was STRICTLY about not wanting kids being trans. No. It never was. Republicans, conservatives, TERF's, and Neo-Nazis all want to genocide trans people through legislation aka mass transgender violence. This was never about the kids. Stay safe, get armed, and be prepared to have trans refugees.
