to whoever needs to hear this: transvestite and transsexual are not slurs. "outdated" queer terms are not inherently slurs. these are literally historically the first 2 terms created and used to talk about the trans community, both coined the first doctor to perform successful trans sex reassignment surgeries, who spent the rest of his career pioneering and paving the way for the modern surgeries we perform today. his name was Magnus Hirschfeld, he was a jewish doctor who began a lifetime of fighting for queer rights due to being moved by the struggles his queer patients went through in terms of not being allowed to accept themselves during the Nazi regime at the time. these are perfectly fine terms that have grown to develop their own distinct meanings and communities over time. this man spent his life fighting for trans and jewish rights during Nazi occupation. any queer term can be used as a slur in the wrong hands. thank you

@sklarissa
There are generally two ways that Serrano’s definition of transmisogyny are interpreted. Either it is the intersection of transphobia and misogyny or it is the transphobia experience by trans feminine people. In the first case, AFAB transmasculine people would experience transmisogyny because the systems of oppression don’t view them as men, they view them as either confused or failed women. People get really fucking upset when you point out that with that definition of transmisogyny transmasc people experience it, and most people only ever use to refer specifically to transphobia experienced by trans women, so that’s the definition that a lot of us use.
If you don’t want us to use “transphobia experienced by transfemmes” and you don’t want us to use “the intersection of transphobia and misogyny”, then what definition do you want us to use?

i think the term "imposed gender" should be used more, potentially... imposed gender inherently implies that it was imposed upon a person, and it doesn't specify any sex/"agab" details at the same time. so if you were raised as a specific gender, you could say it was your imposed gender (not necessarily negatively, but can be).
it would also mean that cis individuals do (primarily) identify with the imposed gender, while trans individuals don't (to some/any extent).
this would mainly be aimed at guardians or responsible adults imposing a gender onto a child as they grow up; behavior-wise, mannerism-wise, clothes, toys, interests... the list goes on. i think you can catch the gist of this..? :P

Little bro bouncing on big brothers cock, his tight ass stretching to almost the breaking point as he sobs, feeling his brother's chest press against his back.
Then big is walks in.
At first, she's shocked. But quickly, little bro sees her smirk.
"I always suspected this, you know?" She teased, as she walked to the side of the bed, stripping clothes as she moves. Eventually she slides onto the bed between big bro's legs, shuffling up so her nose is practically pressed into little bro's hard little T-dick. She inhales deeply as big bro starts to thrust again, smelling their combined musk as her eyes flash with arousal. She licks a long stripe, starting at big bro's taint, up his balls and what little of his shaft isn't currently buried inside little bro, continuing all the way up to little bro's throbbing cock.
"Well, don't let me stop you boys having fun!"
#This is actually the first time I've included a trans guy in my writing#mostly bc i do not know the terminology#so any feedback is much much appreciated#text#big bro's journal#fauxcest#brocest#siscest#sibcest#fauxc3st

And THIS is why it is so special to be in a time where we can listen to our elders speak openly. So we better take advantage and LISTEN.
Sometimes I get comments or asks or whatever from the identity police about who can be called butch.
Well, dear sweets, firstly get to know your history, watch this video to the end, respect your elders and then digest the fact that nature is as it does. So, you staring at a natural truth, and telling it, that it's wrong, only shows something unnatural of you- work on it my babycakes.
You can also read more of what I personally (so not those featured in the above video) have to rant say if you feel so inclined...
I myself remember how butchness was well known as a spectrum of how masculinity looked on those who were not cis men. I remember how that spectrum included butches who would further their masculinity/Adorn their masculinity with hormones/surger(ies), I remember how butcheness extended to those who were queer but not lesbian, and their role within the butch world was never questioned or even pondered at. Because to be seen in the world as butch, is a very specific thing, with specific ostrasisations, and specific ways to understand what gender is and specific ways of being made to feel ugly for not adhering to the way the west pictures women. To be butch is a very specific feeling starting in our earliest memories for most of us we have that feeling before we even develop sexual desire, because its entirely its own thing, and it creates a very specific bond. A bond of butchhood.
I was very young when witnessing just a little of this time period, the solidarity within it still was strong enough to hit me and captivate me. It's been sad to see just how much of that has changed into a relentless need for over specification, dissecting the community left right and centre, policing eachother. Do we not remember the enchanted connection of anti police anti state moral with queerness? Please let us do better, please let us help one another do better.

Mingirl is what your username brings to mind lol
But the cis-tran spectrum of labels I know are: cis, transn't, non-trans, cistrans, transcis, non-cis, cisn't, trans.
Outside of that, there's: null, queer, and in your case, maybe see how you feel with saying "girlgender" or any of the other terms listed, instead of "cis girl"💖
i'm not even trans. but saying "i'm a cis girl" feels wrong? who knows maybe i am trans
Worth thinking about. There is also the possibility that you are not cis or trans but a secret third thing

hard to feel proud of much this pride
#im proud of my transfemininity and i love my sisters but#i feel so distant from any concept of a larger queer community...#cis lesbians will accept trans men before they accept us#were constantly excluded from discussions of transness in favor of tme trans ppl#transfeminist terminology is constantly either attacked for not centering tme experiences#or co-opted...#whatts there to be proud of rn?

Honestly really disappointing and upsetting that just after I found the pills that make you green comics the creator turned out to very much extremely hate people like me
#I guess her transmasc audience was getting too big and she had to go oops! I gotta hate a little bit to scare them off!#when will there be popular transfems that don’t fucking hate us.#I can name ONE blogger I know who is transfem and actually appreciates transmascs and acknowledges we are oppressed#not more oppressed than transfems. oppressed are all. oppressed even NEAR equally.#that’s how bad it is#I can’t imagine making the pills that make you green comics#and not actually believing like any of it#all of the comics point to her being supportive of trans men and lesboys and the infinite ways we are complex#and yet. the second someone asks about it and baeddels create an uproar#‘actually tmes are 4chan mra losers and lesboys are just trying to claim access to lesbianism because they have vaginas 🙄’#it’s literally just more proof that people against transandrophobia terminology don’t have any actual moral reason to be against it#they just hate *us* and want us to shut up because then they don’t have to pretend they support us

Gendertash From Hell Issue 02 (1993)
Transcription under cut
GENDER MYTH #1
Although male-to-female transsexuals have surgery to change their anatomy and take female hormones, they still act like men.
FACT: Some male-to-female transsexuals act in ways many consider to be masculine; some don’t. The same can be said of nontranssexual women. In fact, some types of “masculine” behavior in nontranssexual women are applauded in the lesbian and women’s communities, while the same behavior in a transsexual woman is taken as proof that she is “really” a man. Labeling behaviors as masculine and feminine is of little practical value and only reinforces gender stereotypes.
GENDER MYTH #2
Male -to-female transsexuals are not womenborn women (or womyn-born womyn).
FACT: No one is born a woman. Most of us who ended up as women started out as girls. The paths we took to womanhood are many and varied. Most male-to-female transsexuals felt like girls from as early as they can remember, just like most nontransexual women. Although many nontranssexual women struggle with the changes associated with becoming women, most become women without consciously attempting to. This fact doesn’t make our paths any better, more natural, or more valid than transsexual women's paths.
GENDER MYTH #3
Male -to-female transsexuals have been socialized as men, and this socialization cannot be changed.
FACT: The messages given to each person about the roles of males and females in society are a little different, and these messages may be experienced in very different ways. Many transsexual women felt that the male messages they were given were inappropriate. Many felt inadequate to meet the demands placed on them to “act like a man.” Nontranssexual women feel they have a choice to become aware of and reject parts of their sex-role conditioning— so do transsexual women.
GENDER MYTH #4
Male-to-female transsexuals are trying to “pass” as women. They try to make themselves as much like nontranssexual women as possible.
FACT: Male-to-female transsexuals are women; they don’t need to pass. They don't necessarily want to hide or eliminate their differences from nontranssexual women, although the threat of ostracism leads many to do so. Some transsexuals are proud of their particular route to womanhood, feel that they have learned a lot from the joumey they have taken, and value the unique qualities they bring to the women’s community.
GENDER MYTH #5
Transsexuals take jobs away from other women because they had access to better training when they were men.
FACT: By making the transition from male to female and staying at the same job, some transsexuals have forced employers to change rules restricting women’s positions and salaries, thus opening doors for other women. Many transsexual women seek out qualified women to hire. Furthermore, by holding jobs not traditionally thought of as appropriate for women, these transsexual women bring the message to the general public that women are capable of performing “men’s” jobs.
GENDER MYTH #6
To lessen the power of patriarchy in our lives, we must purge our community of everything male, including women who once had male anatomy.
FACT: By emphasizing the distinction between male and female, we reinforce the idea that there are exactly two distinct sexes. This is the very concept that permits sexism to exist, because discrimination wouldbe impossible if women were not readily distinguishable from men. If we wish to deflate the power of the patriarchy, the most effective thing we can do is encourage the blurring of gender lines and expand our thinking beyond the male-female dualism.
GENDER MYTH #7
Most women can easily prove they are not male-to-female transsexuals, if they are challenged to do so.
FACT: There is no simple way to prove you are not a transsexual. There are no apparent physical characteristics nontranssexual 7 women have or lack that distinguish them absolutely from transsexual women. Birth certificates and other documents show an “F” for both. Chromosome tests may reveal | an XY pattern for a nontranssexual woman. | Hormone levels do not distinguish transsexuals from nontranssexuals. Even inspection of the genitals may not provide definitive proof of your gender history.
GENDER MYTH #8
Male-to-female transsexuals have been raised as boys, have never been oppressed as women, and cannot understand women’s oppression.
FACT: Some male-to-female transsexuals were raised as girls for portions of their lives, appeared to the world as girls, and were treated like girls. Some were beaten and raped both by outsiders and by their own family members because of their belief that they were girls or their desire to become girls. For most, the difference in the way they were treated when they appeared as men and after they began appearing as women brought sexism into sharp focus.
GENDER MYTH #9
Women’s space is not “safe” space if male-to-female transsexuals are allowed.
FACT: Women's space is not safe | whenever anyone in it behaves in threatening or disrespectful ways toward another. Transsexuals are no more likely to | behave this way than nontranssexuals. We should exclude individuals who behave badly rather than exclude an entire group 3 because some of its members act in | offensive ways—any group could be | excluded on this basis. Most importantly, )) women must take responsibility for their their own feelings of being unsafe when others are not acting in threatening ways.
GENDER MYTH #10
Transsexuals have surgery so they can have sex the way they want to.
FACT: How or with whom a person wants to have sex is rarely a major factor in the de) sire for sex reassignment. Usually, people undergo reassignment in order to make their bodies conform more closely to the way they feel inside—their gender. Whether a transsexual is attracted to men or to women usually doesn’t change with surgery. �� Although no figures are available, probably | a third of transsexual women are straight, one third bisexual, and one third lesbian. Sexual orientation is not related to gender identity.
GENDER MYTH #11
Male-to-female transsexuals are trying to take over the lesbian community.
FACT: Most transsexuals who identify as lesbians are focused on their own personal growth and happiness—just like most nontranssexual lesbians. Those who feel strongly about their night to participate in women-only events may become activists for their cause and hope to influence the lesbian community. On the other hand, being overly sensitive to issues of power and wanting to avoid controversy, many transsexuals repeatedly decline to take leadership positions and abstain from participating in decision-making votes.
GENDER MYTH #12
The sex assigned to a person at birth is that person’s “real” sex.
FACT: Sex is assigned at birth on the basis of a cursory glance at the baby’s genitalia. | In about 5% of births, there is some ambiguity in the sexual organs, and mistakes can be made. In other cases, internal genitalia, chromosome patterns, hormone production, and secondary sex characteristics that develop later may be at variance with the person's external anatomy. Sex is arbitrarily assigned by the patriarchal medical system, and there is no reason to assume that it is any more correct or real than what a person experiences.
GENDER MYTH #13
The lesbian and women’s communities have nothing to gain by including transsexuals.
FACT: Transsexual women bring many valuable qualities to the women’s community. They bring skills usually taught only to men into the women’s community and pass them on to other women. Many are active feminists, increase opportunities for women, and seek to hire and promote women. Those who have made it through transition must have intelligence, persistence, and a sense of humor. Many also bring a spirituality that has been possessed historically by cross-gendered members of various cultures.
GENDER MYTH #14
Nontranssexual women have the right to decide whether transsexuals should be included in the women’s community.
FACT: Each individual has a right to claim her own identity. While being adamant about having this right for themselves, some members of the women’s community would deny it to others. Just as each woman must come to her own conclusion about whether she is a lesbian, each must know her own truth about being a woman. Transsexuals can and do include themselves in the women’s community and the lesbian community without permission from nontranssexuals.
GENDER MYTH #15
Transsexuals are guilty of deception when they don’t reveal right away that they are transsexuals.
FACT: There is no standard of disclosure that requires transsexuals to reveal their medical history, just as lesbians do not need to mention their sexual orientation immediately on meeting someone. The circumstances in which this is considered an important fact to know vary from person to person. The individual meeting a transsexual may collude in the “deception” by assuming she or he is a nontranssexual. If it’s important to you to know, take responsibility for asking.
GENDER MYTH #16
Male-to-female transsexuals are considered men until they have sexchange surgery.
FACT: Although male-to-female transsexuals appear as men during some part of their lives, most never consider themselves men. They have felt like females for their entire lives. The change from male to female is a change in external appearance of sex-related characteristics, not a change in gender (how a person feels inside). This transition takes place over a period of several years, and sex-reassignment surgery is only one part of it, together with living as a woman, taking hormones, and resocialization.
GENDER MYTH #17
People can be categorized as transsexual or nontranssexual—there’s no in-between.
FACT: There are nearly as many categories as there are people. There are transsexuals who have had or plan to have one, two, or many surgeries to make their bodies conform more closely to their gender, and those who will never have surgery. Some people feel comfortable expressing both genders. Some refuse to identify as either gender. Some people (male and female) enjoy cross-dressing, but their gender is congruent with their sex. Some conform to gender norms; some flout them. The possibilities are infinite.
GENDER MYTH #18
Women who want to become men have bought into societal hatred of women or are hoping to take advantage of male privilege.
FACT: Female-to-male transsexuals don’t want to become men—they are men. The reason they want to change their bodies to become more male appearing is because that’s how they feel inside. If they gain male privilege, it is tenuous; whatever they have gained is lost if they are discovered to be transsexuals. If transsexualism were based on misogyny, there would be far more female-to-male than male-to-female transsexuals. In fact, their numbers are thought to be about equal.
GENDER MYTH #19
A person’s “true” sex can be determined by chromosome testing.
FACT: Although most persons identified as male at birth have XY chromosomes and most of those identified as female have XX, there are many variations that can occur. Some “women-born women” have XY chromosomes, a fact that may be discovered only when they are tested to qualify for athletic competition. Other patterns, such as XXY, XYY, and XXX (no, this does not make you an amazon) can also exist. Some individuals have what is called mosaicism, in which some percentage of cells have an XY pattern and the remainder have XX.
GENDER MYTH #20
Transsexualism is unnatural—it is a new problem brought about by sophisticated technology.
FACT: Throughout recorded history there have been people whose gender identity did not match their anatomic sex, and there is evidence that sex-change surgery was performed thousands of years ago. In some cultures, transgendered individuals were held in high esteem as shamans. Today, surgery—from liposuction to sex reassignment—allows many people to have a physical form that is more congruent with | their inner sense of themselves and the way they want to appear
GENDER MYTH #21
“Real” women, certainly those who belong to the lesbian community, rejoice in their womanhood and have no desire to be men.
FACT: There are people who were assigned as females at birth who identify as men, and many of them become part of the lesbian community. Most would be labeled butch lesbians. Many are afraid to reveal their desire to appear more completely as men, including taking testosterone and undergoing surgery to remove their breasts and construct penises. (Transsexual men are apparently permitted at Michigan because they are “still women” according to the Festival doctrine of immutable sex.)
GENDER MYTH #22
Now that Festival policy has been made clear, there are no transsexuals at Michigan.
FACT: Festival policy is far from clear. The brochure states that the Festival is for “womyn-bom womyn.” Many transsexuals include themselves in that category. While some transsexuals have no desire to participate if they know they are unwelcome, others are here and will continue to come because they have a right to be at any event open to women. No statement has been issued about whether female-to-male transsexuals are welcome at the Festival.
GENDER MYTH #23
Transsexuals have caused trouble at Michigan, resulting in their expulsion.
FACT: According to Festival organizers, transsexuals have been attending MWMF for many years, and 1991 was the first time a transsexual has been expelled. Nancy Burkholder was expelled because she said something that made a woman suspect she was a transsexual, not because her behavior was offensive. In fact, Nancy had participated fully in the 1990 Festival without incident. There is no evidence that transsexuals have ever caused trouble at Michigan. Seeing transsexuals as trouble-makers is once again blaming the victim.
GENDER MYTH #24
Nontranssexual women at Michigan don't want male-to-female transsexuals here.
FACT: Although Festival organizers claim that the policy excluding transsexuals reflects the senument of the community at large, many nontranssexual women support the rights of transsexual women and want them to be included. A survey of over 600 women at the 1992 MWMF showed that 73% of those surveyed thought male-to-female transsexuals should be welcome at the Festival; 23% thought they should not be welcome and 4% were undecided. Only 20% would welcome female-to-male transsexuals, who are apparently permitted.

I just saw another ask calling Gemini au Donnie afab, and obviously he does have XX chromosomes in your au (or the turtle/mutant equivalent at least?), but if afab means assigned female at birth and Donnie and Leo were assigned male at birth by Big Mama.... Does that technically make the two of them amab trans men???
Or.... amak? assigned male at kidnapping?
LMAO yeah. I always grapple with the terms because I'm like. WELL... THEY TECHNICALLY... WEREN'T ASSIGNED FEMALE AT BIRTH LMAO,,,, they're both, technically speaking, amab, so yes, they are in fact both amab trans men lmao.
And they weren't TECHNICALLY kidnapped... so... amaa? assigned male at... adoption??? u w u
#the term afab isnt technically correct because. you know. but sometimes i use it anyway just for like. ease of communication#y'all know what i mean lmao#and im always hesitant to use terms like “biologically female”#coz i dont necessarily always LOVE that terminology for trans ppl and i know sometimes other ppl dont either#but! shrug. its not really that deep lmao#its mostly me being nitpicky and also force of habit#asks#anon#gemini au asks

hi first glove anon here. i feel like i started something LMAO i’m glad you all share my vision
anyway i have more thoughts. specifically about medfet wesker… wooooo!!
wesker who insists on “examinations” in the medical supply room, dons his blue vinyl gloves and pries your lips apart to look at your teeth and depresses your tongue with his fingers to watch your face take on a subtle expression of confusion. he moves onto your throat and makes palpitations there, across your chest (bonus for lingering touches on an ftm reader with top surgery scars!!) and down to your waist, pressing into your hip dips just a little too hard so that you wince and/or have some bruising later from where he was slightly rough about it.
and, if you’re being pliant enough, he might just have to look in some other areas, hmm? examine your thighs and calves for “injuries,” just taking the time to casually feel you up. never taking it as far as you’d like so that the rest of the team doesn’t get suspicious. URGHHH I COOKED HERE.
anon i can't believe you made me learn this about myself just now lmAOOO (/positive)
ALSO YOU HAD ME AT THE BIT ABOUT CHEST SCARS HALLELUJAH
no but i NEED to see a super detailed close up of his hands in exam gloves in the absolute worst way now. any color, but green in particular i feel would really accentuate the details of his hands very nicely, especially the bumps of his knuckles and maybe even a vein or two
#ask#anon#albert wesker#albert wesker x reader#albert wesker x you#resident evil#can i just say i appreciate endlessly the mention of the chest scars bit#i'm involved in another fandom that neglects trans readers/characters pretty heavily and it always warms my heart when we get to be include#small tangent that is kind of irrelevant to the point but:#a big reason why i do different pick-your-anatomy versions of fics is because i want so badly for everyone to feel like there's -#-something out there for them in the space of the fandom bc i'm in a fandom where i feel like i have nothing unless i make it#which is fine yk i'm not entitled to peoples' work but it just gets discouraging and makes me feel othered#same for why i make pick your preferred terminology and such (good boy/good girl/etc) fics#idk i'm just so thrilled you included that part that it has me feeling schmoopy#schmoopy is a word now#but yeah i've felt more inclusion in this fandom as a trans dude than i have in the other(s) i'm in and i'm so endlessly grateful for that

and the joke, for those of you who might be curious: "Someone told me my jacket looked gay, and so i told them "it just came out of the closet!""
#ashton blogs#he was like “somehow i knew you'd think that joke was funny” and i was like “well yeah it's me you're telling it too”#(i am the gay cousin if it isn't obvious by now) (or really the bisexual trans aroace cousin but same thinggggg)#he's not homophobic btw#i was just a bit surprised cuz although it's probably pretty common terminology i didn't expect him to use “out of the closet”#but also his wife is just transphobic as hell and i'm pretty sure it's rubbing off onto him#or he might be transphobic since he is old and shows signs of sexism and maybe even toxic masculinity#john mulaney reference#gay#lgbtq#lgbt pride#lgbtq community#bisexual#aroace

bro not to be an SJW on main but that 'cissexual she/theys' tweet has really got some of you showing your entire asses when faced with the slightest pushback/criticism of something, why are you so pressed about making this community palatable to cishets instead of listening to your fellow queers when they ask you to reevaluate your language usage for five fucking seconds
#mine#y'all have gotten way too fucking comfortable with 'clocking' and 'egg' culture#why are you so fuckin interested in someone's transition status when this is the same line of invasive shit we condemn when it comes from -#- cishets. like genuinely why are you propagating this shit you have no idea what someone's life is like.#wtf is 'a cissexual she/they' do you just mean a nonbinary person? then say that instead of applying irrelevant terminology#do you mean a medically pre-transition nb person? why the fuck is that any of your fucking business#its literally the same punching down shit as theyfab just admit to yourself you see nb/transmasc “”“afab”“” ppl as weird infiltrators#and not 'really' trans#i dont feel qualified to speak on the intersexism angle of the post but there are plenty of people who already have so check their addition#delete later

I'm sure there's contexts where it's being used in a productive manner but i really do always raise an eyebrow at the use of the term "ritual/ritualistic abuse", maybe there's some bigger context for it in modern use but It's hard for me to seperate that from satanic ritual abuse conspiracy shit.
#my post#I have some qualms with that article on plurality in trans women but that terminology was one of the big ones
