[angsthungry]

ok legitimate question: is there a reason why most transfemmes in asian media are fashionistas? is it a common stereotype or smth? i've seen it in skip & loafer, blue period, hibari-chan i think—would just like to know why bc i didn't get a proper answer from google

i asked twitter to no avail so don't let me down tumblr!

Mutual Aid Request

After moving my savings have been cut, and my current check is taken entirely by my rent + util payment. this + my cats vaccine shot not being covered has left me unprepared for the coming month.

Goal is $150 and goes to groceries/gas/general funds

anything after that helps and will go towards paying off upcoming bills or payments. might also stream this weekend to promote.

shares appreciated

You’re a grown man with the trauma of a little girl. ... I don’t mean that trans men cannot speak about the misogyny they experienced; it’s just now, most people will look at me and not see the layers of patriarchal violence I experienced. The song “Sweet Cis Teen” asks: Am I a boy or am I just my trauma? But all of my experiences did not magically disappear the moment(s) I realized I am a man, nor were they left behind. It was traumatic being a Chinese woman. I was spat at, harassed, fetishized, assaulted, told that my worth depended on others, my experience and abilities invalidated. My bodymind holds these memories and shapes itself with them, and I do not want to trivialize these memories because they continue to inform who I am and my politics.

this entire essay is worth a read, but the quotations I pulled out are the ones that strike me deeply, being the most relatable to my own FtM experience.

Even if the wording is different, Morpheus's message is as true now as it was back when it was first written.

The machines have gathered an army, and as I speak, that army is drawing nearer to our home. Believe me when I say we have a difficult time ahead of us. But if we are to be prepared for it, we must first shed our fear of it. I stand before you now truthfully, unafraid. Why? Because I believe something you do not? No. I stand here without fear because I remember. I remember I am here not because of the path the leads before me. But because of the path that lies behind me. I remember that for 100 years we have fought these machines. I remember that for 100 years they have sent their armies to destroy us. And after a century of war I remember that which matters most. We are still here!

Tonight let us send a message to that army. Tonight let us shake this cave. Tonight let us tremble these halls of steel and stone. Let us be heard from red core to black sky. Tonight let us make them remember. This is Zion! And we are not afraid!

For the lgbt community. For the women. For the black community. For the immigrant community. For every ethnicity and gender that is and will be attacked for the next two to four years. We have been here since the beginning. And we will remain here long after the hatred and bigotry has passed.

"Political" Fear

People like me are going to start dying,

or worse, no longer being allowed to live freely.

I don’t want to hide anymore. 

Not the fact that I'm queer and trans,

Not the fact that my grandparents immigrated here from China, 

not the fact that I support human rights, even if they aren’t simply my rights.

His presidency will usher in an age of fear,

Of darkness, Of destruction of the worst caliber.

Or maybe I am just scared.

Scared that this world I have barely touched will soon be ripped from my hands, 

Simply because an old man and his friends hate people like me.

Because I am NOT white. Because I am NOT a proud American. Because I am NOT a straight person. Because I am NOT a real man. Because I am NOT the girl I was born as. Because I am NOT rich. Because I am NOT someone who fits into those little boxes.

Isn’t it horrible to think about?

If you do not check the boxes,

You. aren't. safe.

I especially fear for my brothers and sisters,

Who do not pass as well as I do.

For the trans kids who haven't got a chance to socially transition yet,

Who saw the TV glow but never got to explore. Who know there’s more to them but were silenced. Who just want to be happy.

For the queer kids who listen as the president of a country- OUR country attacks us,

Who sit in the closet waiting for it to be safe. Who shout explicitly about how they ARE queer. Who never know if they are free to love who they love.

For Chinese kids who never felt they lived up to their culture,

Who may not get the best chance to discover said culture. Whose skin color determines their treatment. Who feel so white they can’t claim they are Chinese.

For the families that struggle as I do,

Whose parents work harder than any CEO to put food on the table. Whose children study their asses off to get a job that won’t matter in ten years. Whose children get lost to the cycle of poverty in America.

I’m scared for us.

For all of us.
