#robyn's trans talks

[messrsrarchives]

look, here's the thing. you can come online and you can say that you're protecting women. you can say that your vengance against trans people is some kind of feminist move, but that doesn't erase the fact that YOU are next. when trans people are gone and there is no one left to turn on, you will be next.

you come online and say you support the indefinite ban on puberty blockers in the UK, you come online and erase the fact that only 83 gender non-confirming (GNC) people were on them, that more cis people were on them. you start a war against hrt, about minors taking hormonal medication and we'll watch as america starts clamping down on contraceptives. you cry about the 83 GNC people that were on puberty blockers, but you'll later be worrying about the 58% of 16-17 year olds afab that are on some variation of hrt themselves. you come online and cry about hrt, ignoring the fact that the pill is hrt. it just doesn't have the word trans infront of it.

you come online and blow up a trans persons comment sections. you cry about the fact a trans man is wearing makeup or that a trans woman hasn't shaved. you come online and pinpoint all the ways that we aren't doing "enough", and you erase the decades long fight against gender norms. you say a trans woman isn't trying hard enough when she doesn't have a full face on, and you'll watch as YOU start not being enough. you watch as the gender norms we fought against for so long start coming back into play, where women are told they aren't doing enough and those with PCOS or any other hormonal imbalance watch as you ridicule a trans woman for having hair and therefore not being a woman. you'll watch as you, with your hair not done, your makeup not on, and your legs unshaven start becoming a debate about womanhood and what it really means.

you come online and cry about the fact trans people are "mutilating" themselves with top surgery. you say we rush into this surgery with too little thought, and you watch as a 16 year old online gets a rhinoplasty. you watch as an 18 year old gets filler, as people get boob jobs done and that's okay. that's fine. because your issue was never "if you're unhappy with your body, get therapy", you issue was that it was Trans. you say that trans hrt should start at 25 despite it being mostly reversible (bar bottom growth and voice on T) and you'll let people sign up to the army at 18. you'll let people fight for their country before you'll let them have bodily autonomy. you'll say gender-affirming care is disgusting and ignore the fact that every time you get your hair done, your nails done, lip filler, botox, boob jobs, etc etc - THAT is gender affirming. and you'll watch as the media starts dissecting celebrities appearances and questioning what they've had done.

and you won't be protected even if you're an olympian. even if you're successful.

you say you're protecting women when you talk about single-sex spaces and you listen to the government say that we, trans people, are the issue. you listened to Sunak talk about how trans people are nothing but sexual assaulters and ignored the fact that over 50 MPs of his party, the ones that were making these laws to "protect women", had sexual assault allegations. you'll say that people are pretending to be women to get into your spaces, and you ignore the key word - pretending. not trans people. cis. men.

and you'll listen to those men make the laws. the anti-trans laws, btw. none that are woman-centric, no. just anti-trans laws with a "for women" sticker put on top to hide the fact that they've done nothing beyond that to actually protect women.

you say you're "protecting kids" and you ignore as the suicide rates peak, how LGBTQ+ helplines reached record high call numbers the night of the election. you're "protecting families" and ignore the 1 in 4 trans people that experience homelessness in their lifetime, and the 1 in 2 that are domestically abused. you say you're "protecting women" when you talk about bathrooms and you ignore the fact that 1 in 2 trans people are sexually assaulted, and 10% of those that report are then assaulted AGAIN by the officers meant to help them. and then you'll go online and cry about trans officers.

you'll talk about the "them" and the "us", and you ignore the fact that when you start reducing gender down to an ideal woman or an ideal man, YOU lose too.

you ignore the fact that you are just as at risk, and you will be next. and it's already happening.

and i think the difference is, the really big key difference, is that trans people are going to have your back regardless. trans people will fight alongside you just like they did at stonewall, GNC people will fight alongside you just like they did during the suffragette movement, a movement that fought against the same ideals you are perpetuating all over again.

trans people are going to have your back because whilst you focus on the "trans" part, we focus on the "people". because that's what we are. people.

and i think you're a piece of shit if you use women's rights as a guise for your transphobia whilst perpetuating ideals that have harmed you, are currently harming you, and will continue to harm you, unless you realise the only "them" versus "us" you need to worry about is everyone versus the government.

When in further doubt, listen to that one song that brings you gender and body euphoria

🎶 I've got some news for you

Fembots have feelings too

(You know)

You split my heart in two

Now what ya gonna do

My system's in mint condition

The power's up on my transistors

Working fine, no glitches

Plug me in and flip some switches

Pull up in docking position

Pop the hatch and hit ignition

B-b-burn out, baby, ready for demolition

Once you've gone tech, you never, ever goin' back

You gotta enter access code upon my back, my neck

Initiating slut mode; all space cadets on deck

There's a calculator in my pocket, got you all in check, uh🎶

Oh yeah I’d like to be a fembot twink with detachable and attachable parts, okthnxbyeeee

I've been watching ER lately (a medical drama show from the 90s/2000s) and one of the later story lines made me think of Dreamling <3

so!

Dream is an ER doctor in the states and Hob is a flight nurse. They meet on a plane to Vegas and spend the weekend together, eventually getting drunkenly married. While they both had a lot of fun, they plan to get it annulled when they get a chance.

Except because this is fanfiction, they can't get it annulled because they consummated the marriage (repeatedly and enthusiastically) and so they must either stay married or deal with a costly divorce <3

So they decide to give it a year (the sex is that good, ok, and they both think the other is cute) and see where it goes. At the sixth month mark, they finally meet each other's sons (with Calliope there, of course- Hob absolutely charms the pants off of her).

And then there's an accident with Hob's helicopter and Hob almost dies. And Dream realizes he's in love.

And then one of them gets pregnant and wouldn't you know it, Dream's sister Death also works in the hospital as an OBGYN. (she's... weirdly well liked by most of the parents she delivers for, despite her name).

They finally move in together when the year is up and Dream paints the nursery with Orpheus and Robyn (and promises that there'll be a new wedding for them to be in- he even has a new ring sitting in his pocket just waiting) <3 <3 <3

Omggg we love an accidental Vegas wedding!! Also i like to think that Dream could probably totally afford the divorce but he just really, really doesn't want another one because he's been divorced several times already and it's becoming a Thing.

And the sex is really that good.

So good that they start to forget all about things like condoms. Perhaps Hob happens to be trans and he's so manly and masculine that he and Dream both just forget that he still has the parts for making a baby (they may be doctors, but they are also himbos). Or perhaps mpreg is totally real. But either way, Hob has this terrible helicopter accident, is super traumatised, goes and has passionate and comforting sex with his husband... and 8 weeks later finds himself in Doctor Death's office, looking at the baby they made on the ultrasound. It's a lot to take in.

He ends up phoning Calliope and having a whole emotional breakdown to her, and she provides a much needed pep talk. With Calliope and Death supporting him, he's able to reveal the pregnancy to Dream and also announce that he's going to take a break from his career while he recovers from everything that's happened. He really wants more time with the kids and to actually make a go of this marriage with Dream (who he has totally fallen in love with, of course).

When they finally have their proper wedding, Calliope walks Dream down the aisle to where Hob is waiting with Robyn, Orpheus and the new baby. Death officiates the ceremony (and she does a much better job than the Elvis impersonator who married them the first time).

The sex is still mind-blowing. So good that Hob has promised if they ever divorce, he's taking Dream’s dick with him. He knows a really good urologist, from work 😉

The chief executive and founder of HER has expressed disappointment at a new lesbian dating app which purports to use facial recognition technology to exclude trans users. Robyn Exton, who launched dating and community app HER in 2015 – it boasts more than 13 million members worldwide – said she felt a “real sadness” that the new app is being promoted during Pride month. “This is a month where we’re supposed to talk about rights, equality and equal access for our whole community and this is the time when you choose to build a platform that you intentionally discriminate against part of our community,” Exton said.

For what its worth, the creators who are also the co writers refer to Mizu as She/Her in all there interviews, but they know just by the nature of the show it'll resonate with lots of trans/gender/nb folks

that makes total sense !! i was just talking w robyn @ribbittrobbit about how like. there are lots of equally interesting and valid interpretations of mizu's experience and identity !! we haven't seen much of MIZU'S personal relationship to their gender/presentation beyond what is necessary at the given time (boy in childhood. woman in marriage. man in revenge. etc) but like. i can totally see how interpreting mizu as either a cis woman or a trans man or a nonbinary person etc etc could be an interesting and valid interpretation of the character and the text and the narrative depending on your perspective !!! <3

Here we have two women: Maya Yang and Robyn Yang. No relation and, like a lotta times with me unrelated duos, the two am from different countries. Also both these women am trans. It seems like whenever people around Maya have phone appointments that they tell her about it gets rescheduled, it's happened five times. Her friends joke that if they ever want to reschedule a phone appointment they should just tell Maya about it. As for Maya herself, every phone appointment she's ever had has happened on time and when it's scheduled. Robyn speaks in constant terminology and acronyms that technically makes communication faster… after she's properly explained what she's talking about to someone, since it's all invented by her. Spend too long around Robyn and you end up picking this habit up, just ask her boyfriend and he'd say 'Yeah, Rex, uh, Robyn exposure.' because of course Robyn has a term for the phenomenon. Sexuality statement time, both Maya and Robyn are heterosexual.

i JUST yapped about this on tiktok and i'm instantly here because oh my GOD.

(spoiler warning for heartstopper season 3 - episode 6)

ELLE AND TRANS ACTIVISM!? ELLE'S FUCKING STORYLINE!?

i'm crying and i haven't stopped crying.

i'm talking about the bit where she is brought on the radio to discuss her art. she's doing something that she enjoys, she's given a space to talk about it, and they make it about the trans "debate" (p.s bonus mention to "trans people aren't a debate, we're human beings")

i'm talking about elle LEAVING THE ROOM. and how fucking powerful and important and COMFORTING that is.

to have a trans person leave the room.

to have it shown that we don't all want to be activists, and you shouldn't expect us to. that we shouldn't need to be. to have media representation of a trans person choosing peace, and choosing what's best for her.

to have them specifically mention that a cis person was on the last show, and said transphobic things about same-sex spaces. to have it mentioned that the cis peson went first, and elle was brought on as a rebuttal. that she already had less power in this "debate" because they allowed someone with more respect in society, who isn't even part of the discussion, who wouldn't even understand the complexities of existing publicly as a trans person, to go first.

and to have her still. leave. the. room.

i've been on the radio nine times.

only three of nine discussions that i've had have been aired. why? because only three of them were meant to be about my identity. because that wasn't what i was there to talk about. it wasn't relevant.

and then to link it to everything now? to link it to all the massive discussions i've been having recently in this space? i'm sobbing.

trans people do not need to be activists. and i personally enjoy it! i enjoy talking about it - i hate that i have to, but i personally do enjoy being a loud activist (not that this is activism but yk, in my wider life) - but...

she came onto a space to talk about something she enjoyed, and ended up having to defend her right to exist.

and she left the room.

because the cis person went first. because that wasn't what she wanted to talk about. because it's exhausting having these conversations day in day out.

and most importantly, because she didn't have to speak on it.

and then, let's talk about the fact that she was only asked because she now had "influence". that her voice only matters now because she's "big", and it's insignificant otherwise. that a trans person with any kind of traction needs to be an activist - which we see SO much in the media! we see it so much online! that any successful trans person needs to be loud and active. that she was questioned about the meaning of her art only in the context of a political discussion on her right to exist.

so she left the room.

trans people do not need to be activists and they shouldn't be expected to be, and oh my GOD i'm so glad that we have that representation.

How would Caleb react to one of his children being part of the LGBTQ+ community? I know that obviously Caleb would continue to love his son no matter what, because he is the father that we all love, but it can still be a cultural shock, so to speak.

greetings 💚 :D

Funny you ask, Robyn is indeed bi (when he's a teen and up) - it's a Clawthorne thing or something.

Caleb had it all explained by his lovely wife way before they were married because he was exposed to more mlm, wlw, poly etc. relationships in the demon realm than he would've ever been in Gravesfield and so he just had to ask. Kitty/Eve herself is pan (and he himself is kinda bicurious at the least).

By the time Robyn or another of his kids were to tell him they're bi/gay/lesbian/pan/ace/..., the surprise factor and the "how do I handle this??? I was taught this is wrong??? KITTY HELP??" factor would be nonexistent as by then he would've already spent over 10 years on the Boiling Isles and more or less forget and ignore what was drilled into him as a kid. I paint him as a very open minded person. My guy literally looked over all he was taught about witches and demons and decided to stay on the Isles and marry his hot witch crush.

All that matters to him is that his babies are happy and loved.

My guy would give a thumbs up and probably bake a cake with some dumb pun on it - "my kid is trans, so now I'm transparent"- esque. He'd possibly even act as wingman. Unasked of course. Robyn would be like "that guy kinda cute-" and Caleb is all "Say no more, son". Before Robyn can even realize what is happening, Caleb is talking to the guy like "Excuse me? Hi. My son thinks you're cute. Yeah, the one staring at us big eyed, face red."

"WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT, PA?!?!"

"Standing around and staring will not get you into a relationship. You're welcome."

"WHAT RELATIONSHIP EVER HAPPENED BECAUSE A FATHER SAID 'MY SON THINKS YOU'RE CUTE' TO A STRANGER????"

[lonelier-version-of-you]

Okay, so, I think I probably ought to get around to talking about my thoughts on the past two Casualty eps before yet another one airs! I’m not going to do a big recap-style commentary like I usually do, but I’ll discuss them a bit.

I’ve thought both of the latest eps were very good. I did prefer “Once Bitten” (the week before last’s) to “Armour-Plated” (last week’s), but that’s mostly because “Once Bitten” had more Jacob scenes. Whereas last week I felt there was too much Faith and not enough Jacob. I know my favourite character (well, he’s in my top 3 favourites, but that’s beside the point) can’t be the focus every week, but wouldn’t it be nice if he could??

More thoughts on “Once Bitten”:

I thought the snake was hilarious. I love that snake, and I don’t think I’m the only person who can’t stand Faith Cadogan and thinks the snake is an absolute icon, haha.

The Jacob scenes were absolutely brilliant. This storyline is being done so well. Jacob is becoming one of my favourite ever fictional portrayals of an abuse survivor. (While of course a lot of his actions at the moment are about trying to make up for Robyn, I think it goes back to Tina as well: the theme of Jacob trying to ‘save’ people was there in the coercive control storyline, too. And we had the episode a few months ago - I can’t remember the title - where we saw that he’s still affected by what happened with Tina, when he went on a date with his friend and he panicked and walked away.) I relate to him so much that that’s part of why I’ve been quiet about this episode for a while - I didn’t even know what to say because I was too emotional. So, yeah.

Incredibly well-written, and incredibly well-acted. Charles Venn is one of the very best actors Casualty has ever had IMO.

I loved the scene with Jacob and Charlie. I’m usually not interested in Charlie, but after I’d been feeling like “someone please realise that Jacob is in pain!!” for half the ep, it was a relief for me to see Charlie realise it and try to reach out to him. Didn’t Charlie used to be a mental health nurse, before the events of the show? Maybe that’s why he realised Jacob is struggling when others haven’t.

The patient storylines were very good. I always appreciate an episode with good patient storylines.

More thoughts on “Armour-Plated”:

It’s cool that Cam, Jodie, and Rida are all moving in together. That provides some great story potential, I think, and also potential for great comedy.

Iain’s storyline was very good. Iain is another character I’m usually not interested in, but I felt for him in this ep strongly. Michael Stevenson’s performance was excellent. And, of course, I loved Jacob being there and being supportive to him - although I’m also sad that Jacob is there being supportive and comforting to Iain, yet also thinking (as he said in the previous episode) he doesn’t deserve to have friends like that there for him himself. :( Oh, Jacob.

I still don’t care for Faith as a character and I can’t imagine I ever will. I don’t have much more to say about that.

The Jodie and Max dynamic is very interesting to me, and I loved the scene where Max stayed and sat with the lad with the bigoted father.  That scene made me wonder even more about Max’s backstory. Maybe it will turn out his parents were emotionally abusive to him or something, and that’s both why he bonded with the boy (he could relate to him), and why he didn’t want to raise Jodie (he thought he’d turn out like his parents). I think, whatever the reason he’s not been there for Jodie is, it’s going to be more complex than just being a bad father.

Yay for Sah! I love how Sah is just so casually, openly trans. It’s such a nice thing to see in a character.

And I’m very much enjoying the Teddy and Paige relationship so far. They’re great together, I’m interested to see what comes of their relationship.

That’s all I can think of to say. So, more of my thoughts about Jacob will come when the next ep airs. (I will talk about other characters too, but I’m kind of focused on Jacob at the moment, so my next episode commentary will probably be mostly about him.)

My RWBY Headcanons (subject to change)!

I know how you’ve talked about, or at least shown, that Vionn, Lavender, Mauve, Sun, Ren and Ironwood (I think?) are trans/genderqueer, but are there other genderqueer characters in AZRE?

Yes, there's a few more actually!

Yang is actually nonbinary, and goes by she/her or they/them.

Professor Cassandra Melina, the Law Professor in Beacon, is genderfluid and goes entirely by they/them.

Chau Nguyen, Giang and Harriet's spouse, is nonbinary and goes exclusively by they/them.

Jacob Reed, Eirian's uncle on her mother's side, is a trans man who goes by he/him.

May Marigold is kept in AZRE as Robyn's wife, and is still a trans woman who goes by she/her.

Tyrian Callows is nonbinary who goes by they/them.

Ozma as a living person was agender who went by any pronouns.

For the next generation, we have:

Liserian (Tyrian clone/Nuts&Volts) who's nonbinary (they/them or he/him)

Sun Guiying (Strawbana), who's genderfluid (any pronouns)

Mosu Nemeós (Adam/Zanthus) is cis but very much GNC.

Xiaolong Yinyue (Golden Fleece), is a trans man (he/him or they/them).

That's all the solid ones right now. There might be more in the future with developing later characters!

The Black Avengers’ tingz

Shawn Carter, Genius. Billionaire — a business, mannn: Jay-Z

Founding member of the Black Avengers. As expected, many of his relationships are sour. He and his fellow Avenger Kanye West are like something that don’t he matching lately, and he bullies other fellow Avenger Drake after the latter made it his mission to become more powerful than Jay-Z. He's also very obsessed with Rihanna, and has a sick of obsession with the man who forever will own her heart (Chris Brown, of course).

Kanye Omari West is the Christian in Christian Dior (man, they don’t make ‘em like this anymore) with bad hygiene, the former genius better known as, Yeezy (or Ye). His arch-nemesis is Interscope’s 50 Cent, with fellow Black Avenger Jay-Z low-key taking that spot, and Amber Rose in second. His love life was complicated at one point, going from flopped relationship with Alexis Phieffer to Amber Rose to loving Teyana…in secret, and never really promoting her as his artist (bc of said secret), to doing whatever his wife Kim Kardashian asked of him, to hating Amber Rose, to complete disrespecting Kim, to making his longtime obsession with Azealia Banks reach an all time weird, to dating the astoundingly boring Julia Fox.

Robyn Rihanna Fenty, better known as Rihanna; fellow Black Avenger and Illuminati princess, whose greatest victim oddly enough seems to be her forever obsession and on-and-off boyfriend Chris Brown (and his soul). She has interfered with Chris’ love life on many occasions, mainly terrorizing his girlfriend at the time C-List celebrity Karrueche Tran (who she correctly identifies as a clout-chaser), and actually every girl who has simply been seen with him.

Beyoncé Knowles, better known as just Beyoncé is a fellow Black Avenger and secretly (not-so-secretly by 2017/2018) a witch, and uses “extreme dark magic” for selfish purposes, such as when she hexed her former drummer (and probably lover) for reasons unknown.

Aubrey Drake Graham is a fellow Black Avenger, (and alleged worshipper of Moloch) better know by his middle name, Drake. Drake made an enemy of Jay’s when he decided that he was going to be a competitor if not the leader of the Black Avengers. He is severely jealous of Chris Brown (notably, but not only bc of Rihanna. He’s also beefed with fellow Avenger Meek Mill, seemingly but I’m sure not limited to Nicki Minaj, whom we are told he’s always wanted. He more than likely had sex with Kim Kardashian, one of the reasons for his beef with Ye.

Christopher Maurice Brown is a sort of Black Avenger, cutely know by his hip hop moniker or whatever it is (that I assume Cash Money’s Birdman gave him) C-Breezy. He had (maybe still has, who knows) on-and-off relationship with fellow avenger Rihanna, and because of this ongoing beef (up until 2019) with other fellow Avenger Drake. Before he became a kinda Avenger/dipping his toes into the Illuminati, he had his own label CBE (Culture. Beyond. Your Evolution), and one of the artists off of it was his frequent co-writer and producer (whom he brought with him near everywhere he went) Kevin McCall. However, because the Illuminati does not want anybody close to you whom can talk you out of certain agendas they may ask of you to (unwittingly) enact, Chris’ then-manager (and molester) Tina Davis, and more than likely Young Money artist Tyga said certain things to both of them to turn them against each other, since there was no way in hell that Chris would ever willingly cut his friends off (or sacrifice them 👀). By 2016, Chris was pretty much over the elites’ weird agendas and his celebrity fake friends, he unofficially dipped out - part of the reason why the Black Avengers slowly but rapidly fell out.

Talking Sugar

Thankfully, my blood sugar this morning dropped to 114. No doubt it was because I had nothing after dinner last night but water. Not a candy bar, not a single potato chip. Nothing!

Nancy had cancelled her blood draw for this morning and rescheduled for next Wednesday, so we had our coffee and brain games on time. We headed to the Creswell Bakery for a loaf of sourdough bread and breakfast sandwiches, taking Kathleen with us. While I waited for our order, Nancy and Kathleen grabbed a seat at one of the picnic tables outside the bakery and discussed family business.

While perusing Facebook earlier in the day, I saw that a friend in recovery from Tucson has begun transitioning and established another profile for her new identity. I fully support the trans community. Robyn is not my only friend who has made a transition.

After getting back from our jaunt to Creswell, I spent nearly 40 minutes on the phone with a fellow from PeaceHealth talking about diabetes care. He confirmed my feeling that sugar is an addiction, at least for those of us suffering from diabetes. I signed up for a program to monitor my diabetes. He said it sounds like I am doing a good job right now with all my walking and adjusting my diet and avoiding as much sugar as possible. As with other aspects of addiction, one is too many and a thousand never enough.

While Nancy did some more yoga, I took a walk around the neighborhood for two miles. I forgot to put on my walking shoes and the cracked place on my left heel starting leaking blood again, staining another sock. When I got home, Nancy applied more antibiotic and covered it with a bandaid.

For dinner we had leftover mashed potatoes and more of the pulled pork, plus some green beans. There’s still plenty of pork left, so we’ll need to come up with some other ideas for combinations.

We finally got around to our streaming entertainment a little after 7 p.m. We watched an episode of “Midsomer Murders” that featured Olivia Colman; the first episode of the third series of “No Offence,” in which a major character is killed; and another episode of “How to Die Alone,” the comedy show that ended on a serious note tonight.
