you were born a boy, because trans boys are boys!!

not being cis doesn't make you any less of a boy, I promise.

I know gender dysphoria sucks, but please remember you are a boy, and if a transphobe tells you otherwise don't listen.

transphobes just want a reason to hate us, their opinions mean nothing.

I hope your gender dysphoria gets better, or clears up. I know GD can be so tough sometimes; but please remember you are incredibly loved and your body does not dictate your gender.

sincerely, a fellow trans boy

thank you so much, man, you have no idea how much it means to hear that 🥹 you’re really awesome and such a cool dude and I hope you have a wonderful day/ night!

i dont really understand why people are so against ridding of the concept of AGAB/ASAB altogether in the name of "well, how would we define being trans then?"

a woman is "someone who identities as a woman." there is no other definition that does not exclude people who are women.

why does it make people uncomfortable to define trans people as "someone who identifies as trans"? trying to force it into some other definition will always exclude or include someone who either does or does not identify with the label. even if we are defining transness using AGAB/ASAB to say "someone who is transitioning away from/does not identify with their AGAB/ASAB", this is already true; there are GNC binary men who were AMAB who identify as trans and bigender women who were AFAB who identify as cis.

we do not need to keep around an oppressive concept that harms thousands of people in systemic and medical fashions because it would be harder to define some words. words that are used for identification are already going to be nearly impossible to define due to the complexity of human identity.

i am very aggressively protective over nonbinary people who look like they are amab/manly/masc because some of you are very quick to accept nonbinary people who look like they're afab/girly/fem but shit on anyone else.

and stop saying "afab nonbinary" and "amab nonbinary" because we all know you're just treating us like "female" and "male" which, yk is the exact opposite of what nonbinary is meant to be.

treat nonbinary people like nonbinary people, nothing else.

Now seeking trans men & transmascs for a study on chronic pelvic pain

I (they/them, nb) am NOW RECRUITING for a research study! - Transgender Men & Transmasculine Individuals (assigned female at birth, but identify as a gender identity other than "woman") who experience chronic pelvic pain. Must be 18 years or older, fluent in English, and live in the US. Your answers are anonymous.

Chronic pelvic pain is a pain that is present in the lower abdomen or pelvis that has been present for 6 or more weeks. Chronic pelvic pain may be experienced more frequently by transgender men, transmasculine, or non-cisgender women than cisgender women, yet it is understudied. Because it is understudied, clinicians may not know how to best treat chronic pelvic pain when the patient is transmasculine. The cause of this pain is also generally unknown, as are the factors that may make it better or worse for a patient. Therefore, this study hopes to better understand what chronic pelvic pain is like for transgender men and transmasculine people, and how they prefer their care is approached when they seek medical care for chronic pelvic pain.

Participation in this one-time study is expected to take about 30 minutes of your time. There is a link for a raffle.

Here’s your friendly reminder that AFAB and AMAB are meaningless and obsolete terms!

chest binding psa

guys srsly be safe with binding your chest, most binders when bought new come with care instructions specific to the binder and the company but just generally make sure to be careful and if ur currently wearing one just take a moment to reflect and make sure you haven't been wearing it for over about 8 hours (give or take) take it from me, ive nearly broken my ribs while binding and it SUCKS, and while my dysphoria isn't too severe safety should come first, just be aware that binding can go wrong sometime and PLEASE BUY FROM A REPUTABLE COMPANY because if a binder isn't made right it can potentially be more dangerous than a well made binder

Saw someone on here who is intersex tearing down AFAB intersex individuals and claiming they're not really intersex. That they're just trying to be special for not being a "perfect woman" in our society (most likely targeting intersex individuals with PCOS).

I doubt I'll reach that person but for anyone who might have seen it or heard similar, this is extremely harmful to the intersex community, misogynistic, and just plain intersexist.

This is dividing the community and giving us less access to each other. Especially if you currently live in the US right now, us having community is so fucking important. Letting AFAB intersex people connect to the intersex community is so fucking important.

Its also extremely misogynistic. You're assuming you know AFAB individuals bodies and experiences better than they do. If you were not AFAB you do not get to dictate what experiences someone who was AFAB goes through.

It also is intersexist in that its asking an intersex individual to disclose their AGAB or anatomy to be deemed as "intersex enough". Which is also bio-essentialist, something the intersex community is actively trying to step away from. AGAB doesn't fucking matter. If someone is intersex, they are intersex.

If you were AFAB and intersex, know that you are intersex enough. You belong here, in our community. And nothing is going to change that. You are loved 🤍

Personally, I say fuck AGABs in the first place

As an afab enby person, I’m tired of the reactions I get to growing my hair out. No I’m not detransitioning, and no I’m not “embracing my femininity”. I’m growing my hair out to be more like Jonathan Sims. Nothing else.
