Especially blogs in the sex-ed category or the political/activist/org category that aren't usa-based.

Edit: Someone in the notes tagged some queer literature blogs, so I added a category for queer lit.

Master list of all the "our __ experience" lgbtq+ blogs

These are all the active and inclusive/friendly queer blogs I could find. If I listed any that are exclusionist or otherwise bad or are just inactive, please let me know so I can remove them. This list is intended to help queer people find active and inviting communities to participate in and feel safe in. If you know more feel free to add them in the reblogs and/or tell me them so I can add them. Please spread this around, I worked very hard on compiling this list, and this may help people find the community for them here on Tumblr.

teenage trans guy here with a burning question (btw crazy ive never seen a blog like this before. you are doing wonders)

what should i resort to for binding if :

a) i have rib damage and breathing problems due to my inexperience binding and lack of research

b) have tried transtape with terrible results

c) physically cant bind with sports bras due to previously mentioned lung issues

i cant afford top surgery. im not even out to my family as a trans man, and i know i dont have to bind to be able to pass but its getting increasingly harder to be in public and pass as a man. thanks for your help if you end up responding to this 🏳️‍⚧️

Hey there dude, welcome and thanks for your support. I try and get through all of my asks, but I am doing full-time school at the same time too, so sorry for any delay in responding. Since you seem to have not seen many of these style of blogs, I'd recommend @our-transgender-experiences @our-transmasculine-experience @our-trans-punk-experience and @our-queer-experience .

This is a difficult ask and first let me take a moment to warn people against unsafe binding because of this.

Now for my advice to you - don't double down on the bad binding practices - no duct tape I REPEAT NO DUCT TAPE - I suggest trying to create an overall boxier, angular less curvy silhouette - this can be done by working out, particularly chest and other upper body exercises - or by layering clothes that have structured fronts (tshirts with large laminated design panels, utility vests, jackets with big chest pockets) Also, I wouldn't completely write trans tape off, it's a skill you can get better at with a little practice :)

Notes from the team :)

Hey kiddos, some of you may have noticed that we aren't the greatest at replying to asks regularly. This is because we are all young trans people too, and are in full-time education. I can speak from personal experience when I say that we also sometimes struggle with our mental health and living with disabilities/being neurodivergent. This means we may have to take breaks quite often, leading to very slow responses and a VERY full inbox (we are sorry loll). On this note, we are attempting to answer as many asks as possible in the following week or so, but we will then likely be removing all asks from the ask box, as the large number can be quite overwhelming, and so starting (again) from a less intimidating number of asks will be very helpful. This means unfortunately we will not be able to answer all of your asks, especially if they are longer or more negative, but it will be A LOT better in the long run. And I am hoping to NEVER close the asks because every trans kid should be able to send something in whenever they need to, and that is very important to me. If this concerns you at all, for example if you really need your ask answered and are worried that it won't be, please message us <3 Also, Kay is unfortunately having some technical issue (drae cannot currently post anything for some reason??) and so we will be attempting to fix the problem asap, however no posts adressed to him will be answered in the near future. Finally, I wanted to thank you all for your support. We now have over 850(??!) of you guys in this community space, and we are so happy and thankful for that and how you all contribute to this wonderful blog. I am so sorry that we cannot answer all of the current asks, however helping out trans kids like you guys means the world to me and you are so very appreciated. Oh, and we have PLANS for when we hit 1000 followers so get excited about that! - Sage [he/neutral], with input from Jon and Kay

twilight-tok is high key ripping off/parroting yours and the muffin’s heretical metas it’s actually getting crazy. do you and the muffin feel weird that they don’t credit you?

We do, actually. While we're not on tiktok and it's news to us this was happening there too, we've seen a lot of it already on the platforms we do frequent and this being on tiktok as well does explain a lot.

At first noticing little and not-so-little ripoffs was funny, these days it's just very discouraging and part of the reason we post less and keep new fics unpublished.

Credit people, guys, it's not that hard.

since I’ve noticed a bunch of negative energy on tumblr lately ima post something sweet.

I found the love of my life because of vore. I like vore because of the way it comforted me during times when I felt so alone in my own head. That online sonas and stories I would insert myself into and daydream about being so wanted that I’d be devoured and held on all sides. So cared for and loved and appreciated.

vore can be whatever we want and so can our tumblr experience. Let’s keep making things despite the drama. If people wanna whine let them. Just ignore and move on. They will shut up eventually.

I love this community despite the ups and downs. Maybe one day I’ll draw shitty little stick figures or rough outlines of vore on my phone to share and try and make someone laugh.

just keep going. That’s how we win

[our-trans-youth-experience]

The Cass report is something that happened in the UK recently. It is incredibly damaging to the lives of trans youth, especially those who are neurodivergent or in unsupportive households.

Government guidance also makes schools a quite dangerous place for a lot of trans kids as if a teacher becomes aware that a child is trans or questioning their gender identity they will likely out this child to their family immediately.

Advising against social transition for minors means new clothes, a new name, or a haircut. So, just because a child is trans, they would be unable to make the same decisions about expressing themselves as a cisgender child.

This is othering a group of children by stopping them from making the same decisions about their body and how they express themselves. Protect trans kids, they deserve the same rights as any other child.

TW - Transphobia, politics, distressing topics

This is so important. These reviews - the Cass review and the Levy review - affect all British trans people in their everyday lives. From denying life-saving health care to youth and EVEN ADULTS, to promoting transphobic views and outright supporting the transphobia that we have to face every day. And it will only get harder as people continue to be made into a "political debate".

So write to your MP, sign a petition, or post something to spread awareness about these horrible reviews and how they negatively impact ACTUAL PEOPLE. it may seem like we can't do anything and younger trans people, but even a small action can make a big difference if everyone contributes.

I feel sick. I'm so scared. Things are going to get so much worse for trans adults in the UK when the Levy review for adult trans care comes out in November. My GP clinic already tried to not prescribe my T when the gender clinic endocrinologist first recommended it, I had to fight them so hard on it, and I'm terrified at any point they will stop.

Please share this. It is so disheartening that when I make posts about US trans issues they have thousands of notes within a couple hours, but UK trans issues barely get 100 notes. Our struggles are linked. The letter, in fact, uses the American spelling of certain words like 'realize' - Which has made some suspicious that this is a form letter provided by the American anti trans hate groups that have been pushing for more transphobic discrimination in the UK lately.

This WILL affect trans people in the US eventually. They will use the UK as an example to follow, when they are (at least partially) the ones who created the conditions for our growing medical discrimination. Our fight is your fight. Please, please care about it. Help people be aware of this at the very least.

ijbol idk man releasing screenshots of very polarizing things said in a private discord server between friends in a public "callout" post is #the most #tumblrific thing ive ever seen LOL.

#opinion 😱 in tags

[reginamillls]

I think the deleted scene is simply showing you how much Buck is cared for by the people he chose to be in his life, and from someone who craved that care and attention for so long I just think that's neat that Buck has so many people now that do, and idk I'm just happy for him

[rollercoasterwords]

yeah u can put "i hate jkr" and "fuck terfs" in ur tumblr bio but. can u listen + reflect when a trans woman criticizes hp fandom without immediately getting defensive.....

[our-trans-youth-experience]

In regards to recent events, it is even more important than ever that we stick together as a community. It's inevitably going to be hard, and sometimes it may feel impossible, but we will get through this together if we remember to look after one another.

We will be working hard as a blog to answer as many asks and post as many resources as possible, but unfortunately we are not the fastest, so if you need an ask answered more urgently I'd recommend you check out my "colleague" @our-trans-punk-experience. The hope is that if the asks are spread between the two blogs more evenly (currently OTYE is quite ask heavy), then we will be able to answer everyone more efficiently as partner blogs.

Stay safe, stay together, stay alive.

I love you all and am here to help as much as I can <3

Regarding trump getting elected

Hey kiddos, I know things are really hard right now and this is really bad news for the queer community. Things won't be easy and there's no use pretending they will be. But I promise, if we support each other, we will survive this. There is hope. There is action. There is resilience. There is strength. There is protest. And there will be a trans inclusive future if we make there be one.
