You know I probably would have figured out something was up with me genderwise sooner if people assigned female at birth were not conditioned from a young age to absolutely loathe their bodies in order to sell beauty products and diets and unattainable standards
#spitblaze says things#very hard to recognize that the background radiation in ur life is dysphoria under the unrelenting pressure of societal misogyny!!!#like i understand where some people are coming from when they say that transmascs are only transitioning to escape misogyny#which like. fuckin hell i WISH that worked. this shit is inescapable#but also we arent transitioning because of misogyny. were transitioning in spite of it#the entire point of misogyny is to keep Those Who Are Not Men in line#im not 'escaping misogyny' any more than the lesbians who refuse to style themselves to heteronormative tastes#'yeah but passing trans men get male privilege' yea maybe socially. and its not like im fuckin asking for it. i dont want this shit#you think i asked for that shit?? you think stealth and passing transmascs dont push back against misogyny and patriarchy???#weve been on the other side. we know what its like#obvs theres gonna be shitty individuals but if ur letting like three or four dudes shape ur perception of a whole group thats another issue#got off track there but i suppose thats what the notes are for#anyway te/-rfs. die. womanhood is not defined by suffering and you’re all defeatest reactionary shitheads

Lately I tried to cosplay Lupin... I can better plenty of things (hair, makeup, trousers, socks, boots, general phisique) but I had fun
#I'm not a professional cosplayer#I ran away from the other Lupin and the Jigen I saw at the con#hmm#lupin iii#lupin the third#cosplay#maybe the only photo they took that doesn't trigger my dysphoria

unironically I think 'none gender with left girl' is the best way to describe my gender
#personal crap#idk what i would do to transition if anything#maybe laser surgery bc of how much dysphoria I get from having thick body hair in places i wish i didn’t#and if i could get hold of it maybe hrt but idk#i wish i could voice train but it always makes me anxious

From 'Dream of a woman' By Cacey Plett.
This sums up exactly how I feel about most transition timelines. As much as they reflect people's experiences, they are also a narrative. And the narratives that get shared the most tell a lot about what our values are. The timelines that get the most attention are the ones where people go from sad, loser, nothing boys into beautiful women.
But if you go to /r/transitiontimelines or a similar place, and sort by controversial or look at what has the least likes, its people who made timelines when they still don't 'pass' yet. Even if they're happy as can be, that's not what people are looking for.
I think it says a lot about what people expect from trans women, that they only want to see us be beautiful. In some cases, that they want to believe they can be beautiful. So there is no value in trans life if you're not beautiful.
#i dont know if this is exactly what the narrative was trying to convey here but it is something i felt while reading it#and i hope thats meaningful to others when shared#i know he's kind of a chucklefuck but i so think 'the queer art of failure' by J. Halberstam has a lot to say about the impetus to he happy#and its conditions#a lot of the time i feel like i have to perform positivity as a trans woman because its whats expected both from women#and from people lucky enough to transition#while at the same time social conditions are worsening and even personally#there arent solutions to much of my dysphoria#regardless of all that you're expected to just be happy even though the conditions for that don't exist#i think being honest about those things#that negativity#can bring its own happiness#and i think thats also valuable#i guess what im trying to say is that i think ugly trannies can be happy and should be valued#i think sad trannies are wonderful and ought to be cherished#and i think people shouldnt have to pretend to be happy in the same way a woman shouldn't have to pretend to be a man#maybe that doesnt make full sense and i need to think harder to communicate my feelings#but thats the vibe rn#anyways#i really like this book and yall should check it out#dream of a woman#cacey plett#trans women#transgender#trans#transmisogyny#transition timeline#i dont mean this post to denigrate timelines btw#just the way that we give certain ones attention and the teleology of transition that follows#books

heres how t4t timkon can still win.
#rimi talks#every single timkon ive ever written is t4t and always will be. wahoo#take my hand. genderfluid transmasc tim and genderqueer nb kon. do you hear me#baby tim is closeted transmasc. teen tim is like im BINARY im MAN ONLY and in stringent denial of any dysphoria--#--around having more femme or agender days bc hes like no im clearly a GUY.#adult tim is genderfluid transmasc and finally comfortable in his own skin#meanwhile kon is assigned male at cadmus and doesnt start thinking harder abt it until his resurrection#at which point he gets a lot more introspective bc hes like. i was made to die saving the world and i DID so why am i back???#whats my actual purpose then?? what AM i ????#and the ''what am i?'' question leads to the queer realizations esp in the wake of his breakup with cassie#and he just slowly figures out feelings abt gender via learning fibercrafts and cooking and ''girl stuff'' from ma#hes like. well calling it all girl stuff is stereotyping i can be a boy who likes to make lace and decorate pies!!!!!#and hes not wrong he CAN. but also hmmmm actually maybe what if hes not. a boy.#do you hear me do you see the vision. i have thoughts

This one goes out to my fellow ADHD and Autistic fam.
Me: I think it would be fun to stream all of the Mass Effect trilogy and I am excited to finally do so when I can! I am gonna draw cute thumbnails and everything!
Mom: As long as it doesn't distract you from your work.
Me:
#MAYBE SOMETIMES I JUST WANT TO FEEL JOY#MAYBE SOMETIMES I NEED A DISTRACTION FROM THE HORRORS#HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED THAT????#MAYBE I AM CAPABLE OF MANAGING MY ADULT LIFE AND THAT'S NOT EVEN A CONCERN OF MINE#MAYBE I WAS JUST TRYING TO SHARE EXCITEMENT AND HAPPINESS#ADHD#Rejection Dysphoria

so, fellow aspec people, what are y'all's relationship to gay as an umbrella term? I've seen a lot of aroace people call themselves gay despite *technically* not being, and personally I've always been confused by that
(and also— I'd imagine that aroallo or alloace people who are gay for their other orientation would automatically include themselves with that term, but what about the arohets and acehets? how do y'all feel about the use of gay as an umbrella term?)
I'm just curious about other people's experiences bc i as an aromantic person feel rather uncomfortable being grouped in as gay because I've never been attracted to another man before, but anecdotally i seem to be in the minority
#I'm sure it might also have something to do with some internalized transphobia of ''well if i think of myself as adjacent to straight rathe#than adjacent to gay that means I'm more masculine and thereof more of a man''#< not true but.#although it could also be that i have a little more in common with straight trans guys than gay ones#having grown up not being attracted to boys when i was expected to be#(just minus the Woman attraction part obv)#aromantic#aspec#asexual#non sam aro#aro#aroallo#aroace#ace#alloace#gay#lgbt#queer#idk. sexuality and labels and stuff are confusing#thats why ive stuck with just 'aromantic' and not even bothered to try and figure out my sexuality really#I'm not interested in sleeping with anyone so why do i need to know lol#maybe I'm asexual‚ maybe I'm repressing it bc internalized homophobia (in either direction)‚ maybe I'm mistaking dysphoria for dislike of i#again#who knows. not me#yall dont have to respond to my tag rant lol; i wanted to give some extra context and then it got away from me. oops

#banana fish#yut lung lee#lee yut lung#im not going to explain myself. jk um yll's two looks are women's clothing and dysphoria sweaters#or at least like 80% of them#and when characters mistake yll for/compare yll to a woman there's zero pushback or correction#and yll talks about being girly on the inside too and just. idk ok#like no i dont want to compare yll to western gender standards but yll wears chinese women's clothing/hairstyles#it's not just different cultural standards it's intentionally wearing fem clothes from that culture#look maybe estrogen would give her something to live for idk#like all hcs i think there's a bunch of other ways to view yll's gender that are good but idk i like this one 👍#also to be so real i just hit characters i like with the transgenderfication beam a lot so#i think i saw a gimmick blog doing this question but uh. i dont feel like finding it and submitting sorry#hope its ok if me and the other like 40 bf fans on here have this one#thats so crazy i just noticed the color palette i chose.... more like blue lung lee am i right

Y'know how the first day of your period is always like I'm dizzy I'm nauseous there are noises everywhere I'm covered in sweat and I'm filthy I'm sitting in blood I want to take an ice bath I don't want anything at all to touch me ever I'm going to kill my family I'm going to pass out oh my god I can't breathe I'm in pain oh lord deliver us from evil? But don't worry, it's normal, girlie! You were made for this, queen 😉👑
#i have issues + being not cis makes periods a lot worse#to top it off im home today and doing laundry like some good little wife#i dont think i like being reminded that i have an organ inside me meant for something i do not wish to have#gonna be as vague as that because i might throw up from dysphoria today#maybe i should write more of my t4t au lol#CRAAAAWLING IIINNNN MY SKIIIIINNNN

its so wild to go back and read poetry that i wrote before i realized i was trans. suddenly seeing the (at the time) invisible layers to the theme of trying to feel at home in my body...
#and they arent sad or angry or painful poems. cause i've never seriously struggled with dysphoria.#its more like figuring out how to orient myself. or being lost and then finding a path.#when i'm at my computer i'll post maybe one of my favorite stanzas i've ever written. its from my portfolio freshmen year of college

we are so fucking back. despite intending to go into vlr/ztd spoiler free i could not handle it anymore and ended up spoiling myself on a few things (...not everything bc its Mostly just related to characters I care abt and im gonna try and gaslight myself into pretending I didn't see it anyway).
but oh my fucking god clocking phi as transfem in the first hour of vlr was some incredible foresight because she is even more transgender than I thought
original post here if anyone wants to see it or my additional reblog but god. im crazy
#trevor.txt#okay obviously i know how this conversation goes later and it's about phi actually having red hair but dying it#but something about the phrasing of it all is kind of. Okay#plus she specifically says she dyes it white because she doesn't like how it looks red#and plus the framing of the character models - from a filming perspective Even Tjough They Are Kind Of Ugly makes it sound like she's going#to reveal something much bigger than just I Dye My Hair Guys. maybe thats part of the joke but like. stick with me here#also it is kind of a stereotype to be like trans = dying your hair but i did. mine's dyed partially blue. i know SEVERAL other trans people#who have or want to dye theirs#^ which is kind of just a funny concidence but also like. has a lot to do with your sense of identity too? cutting/dying your hair for a lo#of trans people is kind of like. a huge part of transitioning or whatever. if this makes any sense because i sound somewhat crazy here? but#it def plays into gender euphoria/dysphoria commonly#in regards to the second point: kind of a weird trope i've seen a few times but when you view it through a transfem lens#it comes across as a gender dysphoria thing a bit#i would know from my own experiences. like it's obviously kind of the other way around bc im a trans Guy but like...#and then the last image. okay man. this was in the trivia section for ztd.#i don't even think i have to explain that one#anyways i sound a bit crazy with this but like. does anyone understand me. do you get it.#zero escape#zero escape phi#zero time dilemma#ztd#phiposting

every year I’m like this is gonna be the summer I find shorts I don’t hate the way I look in and every year I fail and die badly the whole time it’s warm. this is why I’m fated never to be able to leave the bay area
#due to my rob liefeld themed body dysmorphia/dysphoria#(I feel like I’m shaped like how rob liefeld draws women especially from the waist down)#at least huge jorts are back in style maybe I’ll just do that. idk

people online act like being trans is such a beautiful wonderful thing and that it’s soooo amazing that you get to become the person you want to be or whatever but i honestly can’t see it as anything but a curse for me in particular
#why do i have to get expensive surgeries and go on hormones just to feel at home in my own body? i shouldn’t have to do that#it hurts. why couldn’t i have just been born a cis guy#people i love aren’t going to take me seriously and so many people want others like me to die. what’s even the point of continuing on#i hate the thought of being an out and proud trans person. i hate the thought of being a trans person at all#i hate the thought of someone looking at me and knowing that i’m trans and i hate the thought of telling anyone that i’m trans#but what i hate even more is people seeing me as a girl. and my only 2 options are ‘be a girl’ or ‘be trans guy’. i don’t want to be either#i feel like nobody actually sees me as a man but as a ‘transman’. as some other category that’s completely different from cis guys#and maybe nobody’s even wrong in seeing me that way but i want to die#it’s not like i see other trans guys like that. i don’t know what’s wrong with me#why does my life have to so much harder than most peoples?? i just want to be normal#sorry this is so stupid and i’ll get over it i just woke up with all the dysphoria i had yesterday and i don’t like myself#dysphoria tw#whateverrrrrrrr#maybe it’ll get better when i transition i don’t know. whenever that happens. if it ever happens. Whatever
