at first my thought was "well you probably shouldn't say it" but then in the post you find out op's sister is trying to make her board her 18 year old cats so she can bring her 4 week old baby to op's house to meet her and said "if you loved my niece you would do anything to protect her" like ok well you just pushed that thang out of your vagina two seconds ago. op has had years to bond with her cats. do the math

"esp afab" "but my trans sisters" cmon man, you really REALLY dont have to add that performative "Trans sisters" comment there after implying that amab nb people are just... not considered fucking jokes. C'mon man, use your fucking brain for five seconds.

i did not use "trans sisters" i used "trans sister" on the account of my younger biological fucking sister who i adore and who im INCREDIBLY close with being a transfem in the same cruel country i am in. shes one of the closest people in my entire life that i have, ever had, ever will have, and i cant talk about my experience with gender in balkans without reflecting on her because her reality and her life are a part of mine.

it was a personal vent post and im afab nb person so i have no idea why i would be talking about amab nb people on my vent post thats talking about MY personal experiences. get out of here

I need to find someone who worded this better but. This is your friendly reminder that a woman can be as masculine as she wants. A man can be as feminine as he wants. A nonbinary person can be feminine and masculine and androgynous and whatever they want: everyone can! Your expression and appearance and hobbies etc do not have to conform within a box to be allowed to exist, do not have to match those rigid lines of societys expectation of gender roles in any way at all for you to Be the Gender you Are. You are the gender you feel you are. Your expression can be and is whatever you want, and does not have to match up to expectations.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but what is the issue with agab terminology? I would assume it's because of some people thinking experiences are exclusive and stuff (I've seen some drama of it but I'm not part of it and I never ever really thought experiences were exclusive to a persons agab or perisex people), I personally feel connected to it bc I'm heavily connected to my agab/asab since I feel like my gender is tied/connected to it in a way (in an alterhuman sense) even though I have some dysphoria (mainly the atypical kind), and tbh I kind of always thought people used it in a positive way??? Idk of that makes sense. If you don't feel comfortable answering I totally understand /gen

Hey! Glad you asked, here's some simplified points for ease of understanding with the issue intersex folks have been having with AGAB terms being tossed around.

MAJOR TRIGGER WARNING for medical abuse and bloody/macabre situations involving intersex erasure, as well as the recent major bigotry from perisex folks towards intersex folks.

Direct answer: There's nothing inherently wrong with AGAB terminology, but rather how it has been appropriated from intersex people and misused en masse — AFAB is being used as "dyadic female"/"mostly female"/"female on legal papers", while AMAB is being used as "dyadic male"/"mostly female"/"female on legal papers". Or even worse, "seen as female"/"seen as male".

—————————————————

Further Background On The Terms (TIMELINE):

The terms AFAB/AMAB were originally created with the intention of discussing the coercive/forceful medical malpractice done to intersex newborns or younglings. So, for AFAB, a intersex baby/child would be forced to undergo surgeries AND/OR hormonal treatment < TO FIT INTO THE MADE UP BINARIFIED CATEGORY OF "TRUE BIOLOGICAL FEMALE" > — all while not being able to consent. The same goes for AMAB, but with the "TRUE BIOLOGICAL MALE" bullshit. Basically, intersex erasure by forcing them into one of the two boxes (and that often backfired because the person developed into the opposite of what they were ASSIGNED, or otherwise had pain/loss of sensation in their privates, or hormonal complications). For reference, this does not happen in indigenous groups for example, because there is no White Normativity in them && they embrace natural diversity in a majority of cases (or it just doesn't matter).

The bubble was burst, and the terms began being used wrongfully (see short answer) by perisex people — and in some cases, intersex people as well — as things varyingly, scarily different from their original meanings. This naturally has caused great damage not to the queer community (since everyone is, once again, being forced into THIS or THAT ideologies and boxes), but also for the intersex community itself.

The intersex community is now somewhat struggling 'n scrambling to find terms to replace AFAB/AMAB/AGAB, but given that it is no easy feat, it has remained a ongoing issue for us to solve eventually. I've came up with a few terms in my mind, but none come up properly enough — the creation of CAFAB and CAMAB (adding a "coercive" to the pre-existing terms) happened for this, but they also don't seem to work properly for the discussion because it ends up being confused as the misused AFAB/AMAB with a mysterious new letter in front of it.

Additionally, in light of helping perisex folks have their own word for the things they misused AFAB/AMAB for, the terms "OFAB" and "OMAB" were created — observed female/male at birth. While a lot of intersex people seem to be satisfied with this outcome, it hasn't solved much of anything regarding this situation AND it also sounds confusing to have "at birth", as well as sounding too similar to the original two terms. This is the latest part of this entire timeline; we are still figuring what to do to stop the appropriation of these terms while also offering better alternatives for all sides involved.

TL;DR — You are not of any ASAB or AGAB if you are not intersex AND were forced/coerced into changing things about yourself without being able to consent properly (by whatever means the lack of consent may be present). These terms mean things and have been heavily misused to the point of damaging both the overall queer community AND the intersex community. Intersex people have been BEGGING perisex folks to not use these terms ignorantly, but our pleas have been met with silence, willfull ignorance, or otherwise not being listened to/taken seriously. If one is perisex (or intersex without these experiences being at least hinted-at/possible), one is not "AMAB" or "AFAB".

—————————————————

I think that's all? This is somewhat similar to the situation with TME/TMA (the whole "being appropriated by the wrongest groups and turned into something moreso negative than positive in-use" ordeal), but that's a different can of worms. I hope this is somewhat easy to understand, maybe? Feel free to send additional asks about this, if so needed. I apologize if I sound harsh/blunt, I don't have a easy time conveying tone when explaining things (or in general). There is no biting, just explaining. ^,.,^

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT. I AM NOT TRANS I AM A CIS MALE LORD PLEASE WHY DOES EVERYONE I MEET THINK IM TRANS

Friday is this week's "free feed day". I am ignoring macros and calories (and yes, some of us DO count them. I've been doing it for over ten years. It works for me. Just a head's up to those out there that slam us for doing things a different way. Ok.....vent over 😂😂).

I'm feeling good. Another theory on the mucus thing - hot drinks. Inhaling the steam vapours can produce mucus. To be fair, there's not much I can do about that apart from try not breathe in. But it's still something I've not thought about before.

Anyway, today will be a GOOD day.

I gotup at six and made myself a decaff.

Listened to the next video in my homeopathy course, then got moving.

Lower body workout to start (strength with cardio intervals), half an hour walk (no sunrise....boo), then out on my bike for a big full fat milk cappucino. And of COURSE I brought my own peanuts!!

Oh, and I slept ok. My sugar dropped, which woke me during the night, but no big deal.
