happy pride to you if you use a label like transsexual or transvestite primarily or as your only identity. these terms are awesome- they were 2 of the earliest terms coined for our community and they have a long history of still being used. many older trans people use these terms as their only identities. the usage of transgender was popularized heavily in the 1990's. i identify as a transsexual person, not a transgender one. i'm also a transvestite at times depending on my presentation. that is why my "trans" means. shoutout to you if you're in this umbrella with me, happy pride other transsexuals and transvestites!

here is a zine i've written about identifying as transsexual! it's free when you follow this link! (:

trans men and transmasculine people should not have to be misgendered in order to be in certain safe spaces for themselves. as a very feminine gay trans man i do not feel "safe" in cis men spaces, even cis gay men spaces. but when i try to go to spaces that are safer for me they are labeled as "women only" or "women and nonbinary people" (which that is another issue in itself). in the past i've been in so many spaces that were very "no men" i was often told that i was "different" and that its okay because i'm a trans man. it simply makes me feel like i am not seen as a real man.

transgender men and transmasculine people are often in this sort of limbo when it comes to community. this is simply one example.

as a transgender man i feel like i do not belong anywhere and that i am in the middle and its very isolating.

Being trans has two sides.

One side says I need to look like a mixture of Hunter Sylvester, Larry Johnson, and Heavy.

The other side says "If you grow your hair out you look too girly"

And its ANNOYING

Hello from afar 🌹💋💋❣❣

[gender0bender]

I have finally scanned and uploaded all of the 2010 Spring issue of Original Plumbing to internet archive for people to read for free. This issues focuses on health and safe sex in a transmasculine context, and features interviews, articles, and artist spotlights. You can buy this issue as well as others by the magazine on their bigcartel page here, and I really encourage you to support them! 

Image descriptions:

1. A cover of a magazine depicting a shirtless white trans man with short dark hair and facial hair smiling at the camera. He is standing against a brick wall. In the top left corner is the logo of the magazine reading OP trans male quarterly , with more text in the bottom right reading “the health and safer sex issue N0.03 / spring / 2010 /US $8″

2. A cropped piece of interview text reading: What is the hottest safer sex encounter you've had lately? Well, a funny Eros story. I was fucking this hot transguy with my gloved hand. At some point I needed more gloves and we had run out of them in the bin on the bunk we were playing on. At this point we had quite an audience so I leaned over and asked some guy to go get me more gloves. He did and I went right back to fucking that boy senseless. You just needed a helping hand! True, and I figured they were getting a show so they could at least help out. Wow, did any of them comment on the hot action they were witnessing? Or did they just watch and enjoy?

3. A cropped piece of interview text reading: You also are a go-go dancer with TransLicious Entertainment. What's the craziest thing you've had happen to you in a go-go setting? I just started go-go dancing, so unfortunately I don't have any crazy stories. But I do have something to share with OP, because it happened after I finished dancing at the OP issue #2 release party, which was amazing by the way. It was about 7am, I was finally laying down to go to bed, still buzzing with the excitement of the night. Suddenly I thought, "I'm a transsexual and I'm beautiful!" and I realized I had never said that out loud before, so I did... and I started balling my eyes out. The journey of self-love has been such a long and sometimes painful process. But, I have to say, ever since that night, I feel unstoppable.

4. A photograph of a shirtless East Asian trans man with short hair crossing his hands over his chest and looking into the camera with a squint. He is wearing a white baseball cap, a necklace, and a wristwatch.

5. A photograph of white trans man in a speedo with brown short hait, snake bit piercings and glasses smiling at the camera as he pulls on a white latex glove.

6. A cropped part of a poster decpiting two trans men looking into the camera. The one on the left is a black man with  a bit of facial hair and long black locs. The one on the right is a brown man, with short black hair. The text above them reads “paps matter for trans men.” ED.

if you want to use "Trans male" to mean changing your sex and not your gender to male, or "Trans female" to mean changing your sex and not your gender to female, go for it.

you can also use it for your gender if you want. but these terms do have use in referring to people who are changing their sex. it's not weird to call one's self trans male or trans female instead of a trans man or trans woman.

some people feel trans male or trans female instead. some even prefer these over transmasc and transfem. our community is broad and varied. embrace it.

my transitioning goals

[ellilyre]

I am a man for the Same reasons Dionysus created grapes and then  taught men to make wine.

Because the gods have blessed us with the gift Of creation, the joy To make our own trophies.

I shall then tear apart  This mismatched flesh, And grow myself a new Skin. Just like Dionysus

Was born from Zagreus’ Mutilated heart, I Came from broken dolls  And torn out dresses. 

Every once in a while I repeat this like a holy prayer (to Dionysus but mostly to Myself)
