I aspire to be a Himbo but my physics degree and weasel physique have cursed me to a very different categorization

Genuinely such a fucking trip to hear my father parroting white genocide bullshit. Oughhh the white people are disappearing from these places oh noooOooO I “wonder why”... Disrespectfully what do you think you achieved by marrying a Japanese woman from Japan and having three entire half Japanese, Not White children with extremely obviously Not White names that you agreed to give them? Do you think that perhaps, maybe, this is what is happening to make white people ~mysteriously disappear~ ? Genuinely what the hell are you on. Look any of your three children in the face and tell us any of us looks convincingly white. No one can even tell I’m mixed race at all do you think anyone would be counting me as part of the white population when conducting the census to find where the white people have disappeared to. Do you need the white people to carve a mysterious message on a tree detailing where they’ve gone that you can also ignore so you can keep puzzling over this mystery

I hate that I have reoccurring themes in everything I make. YES this guy has a complex over the fact that everyone prefers his sibling AGAIN. YES he was ostracized by his peers since he was in primary school and never knew why until years later. URGH

[dkettchen]

You ever think about how the majority of cishet men who either write or star in popular media whose fandoms go absolutely wild (being degenerates) in ways that influence not only international fandom media but even seep into traditional/budgeted/industry media probably don't realise just how much their characters specifically had to do with that, like even the ones that are vaguely aware of and uncomfortable with the way fandom ships them or whatever, they don't know, they don't know what they've done, they don't knowww

I love the cod age discourse bc it’s always like omg X has to be at least 40!!? That means X is 50+?? As if that’s not the prime for most (active!! healthy!!) men agahsk

need some of you guys to remember that autism isn’t always about difficulties in communication/development and that sometimes it literally is just differences.

You know after finding radical feminism, and engaging with the theory seriously, I understand now what it means to be empowered. In the genuine, legitimate way. I feel like an actual human being, an actual animal, with actual thoughts and feelings that are HEARD. And UNDERSTOOD. By so many women of whom I was taught to dismiss and scorn.

Like I stopped shaving a few weeks ago. I feel empowered to do that, having been given the tools to stand up against the glares and the snide comments.

I stopped wearing makeup a few months ago. I felt empowered to do that, realising that my actual human face is worth something more than a decoration.

I started eating well and working out. I felt empowered to do that, having come to the realisation that I'm a human being with thoughts and desires and what the fuck was I doing with my life if I wasn't becoming the buff, athletic, energetic woman I dreamed about becoming as a child.

All of these things are not offered by liberal feminism. All of these things are sidelined as a choice that some women...."you know the type"..... did when they were scared and angry and stupidly lashing out at the poor men and their 'simple expectations for women's hygiene'. BULLSHIT.

I'm working on grounding myself in my own pov, one that isn't an invisible male audience. I'm arming myself with the knowledge to fight back against anti-feminist movements, and how to identify them. I'm working on centring women, and thinking critically about my own actions in relation to ALL of this.

How the fuck have I missed all of this for the majority of my life. I am a HUMAN BEING???????!? NOT A DECORATION????!?!?!???? Literally mind blowing, and

I never noticed it until now????????.

Every woman in my life is traditionally feminine. I believe they will shun me for being an extremist if I express my anger at the patriarchy. Idk but if this is extreme what the fuck is normal. Who made this up. When can I kill him 😭

Idk it's weird because when discussing discrimination against trans men specifically, people tend to bring up like... being told men are gross or that you're betraying the feminist cause or something. And while those are shitty and mean-spirited things to say to somebody, what I would actually identify as a kind of specific systemic form of discrimination is the exclusion of transgender men from studies and surveys, and the relative ease with which people simply forget that we exist. Erasure, basically. Which honestly, seemed to be discussed more before the advent of whatever the current movement around trans men's struggles is called now, because there wasn't a metric fuckload of incomprehensible discourse surrounding it.

Most other things that seem to come up, while very real and very shitty, are not unique to us per se, though I do feel we are often left out of the conversation because it's assumed that they won't apply to us (ex domestic violence, fear of sexual assault, fear of being seen as a predator, accusation of transitioning for fetishistic purposes, assumption that we are transitioning to escape being gay, being denied access to fertility procedures without detransitioning, on and on and on). Which is also annoying.

I just find myself irritated by the current movement around trans men's experiences because there's some really pervasive problems in there that I do feel are systemic and underaddressed, mixed in with some stuff that's a problem but better addressed by putting one's energy into existing movements, mixed in with bonkers intercommunity drama that only matters if you're only friends with other queer people in an accepting area.

i would love to be a more engaged member of the prsk fandom on tumblr but i fear even here that i am just a fundamentally different person than the common fan. not to mention like 5 years older

dc fic writers with male faves not caring about female characters whatsoever -> accidentally making their male favs sexist

even the dudebro canon writers have the guy characters ask her 'hey you seem down... didnt you kill your dad last week?' before going back to focusing on him. dc fic writers often won't include women at all, or if one does show up she's usually a hollow shell whose only purpose is to enrich your male fav's life and provide hurt/comfort and emotional first aid.
