#trans bathroom takes

IDGAF WHAT THE GENDER MARKER IS ON THE BATHROOM AS LONG AS THIS GERARD WAY LOOKING MOTHERFUCKER DOESNT HEAR MY DIARHEA

[transkeiichi]

my dads shitty fox news i walked in on was a trump woman announcing "one party knows what a woman is, and the other thinks men can get pregnant and we need tampons in boys bathrooms" but tell me more abt how im not a target of transphobia and i need to keep my mouth shut and know my place as a perpetual shield and uplifter of other trans voices due to my inherent male privledge and lack of ever being oppressed for my identity

[bananonbinary]

the transandrophobia discourse is fucking stupid and bigoted and the same old exclusionary hat we've seen over and over again

but what really gets me about it is how STUPID it is?? i mean, no, i haven't experienced EXACTLY what any other trans person has experienced, but the idea that trans men and women don't have BASICALLY the same experiences is insane. the differences between me and a trans woman are imo about the same as, say, a non-op and a post-op trans person. or a trans person deep in a red state and a trans person that lives in new york. honestly i think either of those differences actually matters MORE for shared experiences. i've spoken to lots of trans people of various gender configurations and SOMEHOW we all know wtf is going on with the others.

also im not going to argue about this if you think trans men are significantly privileged then just block me now man. and also get off the internet and interact with real society, which hates all of us pretty equally.

Would be a shame if someone was here 2 help get me off, a real real shame. Tragic even.

I feel like... Perhaps... Arguing that transphobia is defined by murder and that anything other than murder doesn't even matter... May NOT be conducive to fighting for trans rights.

Like... people want the right to exist as they are. They want to have access to hrt and surgeries and prosthetics. People want access to clothes that fit them and reflect how they want to be seen. People want access to medical care (eg. Getting screened and treated for sex-based forms of cancer can be impossible if you have the "wrong" sex listed to receive those tests). People want to be respected and treated well. People want to not be sexually assaulted and beaten and abused. People want to have access to housing and jobs, and the protection to not lose those things for being trans. People want access to shelters for homeless people or survivors of domestic abuse. People want name changes.

Acting like all of those things don't matter because at least they weren't murderered by an individual (and instead die of suicide or state violence, or survive and suffer) isn't okay.

[louderlaughter]

trying to get myself moving while last night’s rain patters out of the gutters

[everythingwasnormalhere]

jst woke up from YET ANOTHER transphobic south park dream and. what was that????? (it had kenny angst so im not complaining)

[gayforcarstairsgirls]

Great so now we're outing children/teenagers to their parents! And therefore possibly endangering them! Fantastic!

[monster-noises]

There needs to be more events where wearing pants, a sick jacket, and no top is acceptable attire... The world is really missing out.

the people who are afraid of trans people being in the bathroom with their children are definitely the people who are too lazy to keep an adequate eye on their kid in public places. be honest. you’re more afraid your little demon is going to violate a stranger’s privacy by crawling under the stall and then possibly, hypothetically, see a set of genitalia they’ve never seen before.

very very personal, just insight into where im at w my family and things that bother me/have encouraged me to move out

"i know youre moving out so im just gonna say no ones kicking you out and if you feel like this is something you have to do then ok"

thanks! i know im not being kicked out! but yknow i kinda yet a weird vibe when your out of touch husband takes me to a cemetery to yell at me, tell me im just like my father/dont give my father "the time of day", and that im "mean to people who care about me" in front of his dead mother's grave in a poor attempt at guilting me out of speaking my mind. but no yeah thanks for stating the fucking obvious that im leaving on my own terms

[catherinekal]

Me at work because I liked how my hair looked. Bangs aren't awful for was. :3

[arielluva]

little self-portrait thing starring my bathtub that hasn't changed since i was 7 (besides the stickers getting more faded)

[macbethz]

[nickbutnodick]

i really do find it hilarious when people say transphobia doesnt exist anymore.
