#Repost @forsecafitness (@get_repost) ・・・ I am not your typical fitness trainer and today I finally own that fact. I am a black queer trans masculine person and yes “labels” matter when you are carving space for yourself in a world that wants to deny your existence. I am happily thick and I don’t wish to be toned or buff. I honor bodies no matter how they show up in this world. I am challenging the fitness industry which associates what you look like with how much you know. I am reimagining and redefining fitness in ways that offer more healing and restorative practices. Today I honor all of who I am and I am proud to be an openly trans and body affirming fitness trainer. • • “Black Trans Excellence” t shirt available @brooksdagger • • Use Discount Code: FORSECAFITNESS to save 10%

Here are some beliefs that you can work towards instead: • - no one deserves bad treatment, including you • - You deserve to be treated with self kindness & to meet you own physical and emotional needs. • - Physical appearance isn’t the most important thing, and even if you’re unattractive you deserve to be able to live your life without shame. • - that no one is expected to be perfect at everything they try, and that it’s ok to enjoy things you aren’t good at. • - That everyone makes mistakes and does embarrassing things, and that an embarrassing event might feel really terrible but it’s not actually a threat. • - It’s not worth obsessing over whether you are a good or bad person, bc those things don’t really exist. (There are only good & bad actions; humans are way too complex & ever changing to fit into black & white labels). • - Your thoughts and emotions are as valid as anyone else’s. • • Basically, the goal with all of this is to accept that you can treat yourself with self compassion. It is going to be near impossible to be happy if you constantly tear yourself down, or if you don’t honor your needs. Make self kindness the goal.”

#Repost @brooksdagger (@get_repost) ・・・ Sending love to the trans people who work jobs that require frequent interactions with the public who often get misgendered at work. I know it can be disheartening to face that every day, but it’s really strong to continue on. Make sure to take care of yourself!

#Repost @brooksdagger (@get_repost) ・・・ "There is no such thing as *looking* transgender. We must challenge the assertion that gender is a ‘thing’ that is necessarily discernible by others. The idea that gender is 'visible' is violent because those who have power are the ones who determine and regulate the standards of visibility."

#Repost @brooksdagger (@get_repost) ・・・ Through the reinforcement of the gender binary we have restricted the ways in which humans can perform and experience their daily lives. Please remember that no matter how you identify you can look and move in ways that feel comfortable to you. Your career choices are not limited to your gender identity or lack there of.
