LGPT, gdzie P oznacza Polaków.

[wszczebrzyszynie]

Because it is pride month i highly encourage you to watch one of my favourite polish movies, Hiacynt (Operation Hyacinth in english), avilable on netflix... set in mid 80s Polish Peoples Republic durning the titular operation hyacinth (secret operation of communist police targeting and arresting polish gays in order to create a national database of polish homosexuals), it follows Robert, a citizens milita worker, whos unsatisfied with militias lack of action about the murders of gay men in Warsaw and decides to discover the truth himself. In order to do that, he infiltrates the local gay scene through Arek, a german language student, and begins discovering a lot about himself in the process

it may not be the greatest movie to ever exist but its special to me specifically and i wanted to share it with you. :)

Polish LGBT+ people in 2020, when the government targeted them:

LGBT+ from the US in 2024, when they are not supposed to vote for someone who supports Israel:

That's just my whole comment, America makes us weak… And I mean that literally

The only thing you did was make the USA the most pathetic country in the world

Mesosex

EDIT 2023-11-23: the term has been revised to:

Mesosex: a person who has an intersex variation, but one which does not conform to perisex (non-intersex) ideas of what intersex is. For example, people who have intersex traits that are considered "mild", or who have variations such as PCOS Hyperandrogenism and Poland Syndrome.

Meso- for middle/in between, to refer to the state of being in between what the intersex community accepts as intersex and what the broader public (mistakenly) thinks intersex is.

More info on why the revision has happened: https://www.tumblr.com/ipso-faculty/734822362966540288?source=share

For archival purposes, this was the original post:

Mesosex: somebody who identifies with intersex people but not as intersex, and also feels perisex does not quite apply to them either. Meso- from Greek mesos (middle), to indicate that one feels in between having the intersex experience and the perisex experience. For example, people with reproductive disorders who feel they have common ground with intersex people but not so much common ground as to feel they are intersex.

There are conditions like PCOS and Poland Syndrome that exist on a spectrum from definitely intersex to perisex-ish, and I hope this term gives people on the perisex-ish side of the spectrum more useful word for themselves than the current language of "intersex-adjacent".

I want to be clear that people with conditions like PCOS and Poland Syndrome are completely entitled to call themselves intersex and that there is broad agreement within the intersex community that anybody with these conditions who feels they are intersex is intersex.

In coining this term I am hoping to validate and connect people who would otherwise call themselves perisex yet not feel it is quite accurate for them.

Mesosex people can have any gender, similar to how intersex people can have any gender.

In designing the flag our goal was to give an impression of something in between the intersex flag and cisperinormative gender colours whilst also including nonbinary people. The salmon background is chosen as a colour that is not quite pink, and the periwinkle ring is chosen for being not quite blue, but still reminiscent of the purple ring of the intersex flag. The white centre, put inside the purple-ish ring, is chosen to reflect how the nonbinary flag has white and purple in its middle.

The term and flag were workshopped with @scifimagpie. I had been thinking for a while that it would be useful to have a term for people who feel in between intersex and perisex, and these recent posts by @queercripintersex on identifying with rather than as not only convinced me there is actually an audience for such a term but also inspired me to get this done! PS. If you are questioning if you are intersex, check out this post by @intersex-support with a big list of intersex media, which you can use to get a sense on whether you resonate with intersex experiences. (Also check out their FAQ! And their past posts! They're really great!)

I was talking to my sister the other day about a Polish queer movie called "Hiacynt" (Hyacinth) which is called "Operation Hyacinth" in most non-Slavic countries, since their citizens are less likely to understand that's what the title is referring to.

When I showed my sister the trailer she went:

Her: Oh, so it's a gay movie?

Me: Yes. Why did you think it was called Hyacinth?

Her: What?

Me: You know, like the operation Hyacinth. That time the government created the "pink files" on gay men and transgender people to blackmail them and isolate from society. That literally happened only 34 years ago and the files exist to this day in police's archives.

And she just didn't know about this… because it never effected her… because straight people just don't bother with learning queer history.

What…
