I am so mad and upset right now
We just found out that our tutor is being replaced again. The school decided that the year 11s are gonna have extra maths and english lessons to replace our tutor time in the mornings (as if we dont have them both every day of the week) and our tutors are being replaced with maths and english teachers.
The worst of all, my tutor group is most likely gonna have my maths teacher who i hate, he sucks, i dont want him at all and im so angry. We dont even get the good maths teacher or any of the english teachers who are really nice
The think is, we had out tutor for year 7, 8 and 9, and she is the best teacher and tutor ever, she has taken every single one of my concerns seriously and properly cares for our tutor group, then in year 10 we got a new tutor (she was really nice and i loved her as a tutor but it did take me a while to warm up to her, probably cuz of the idea that she replaced my tutor) but then she left only a year into being in this school, but guess what? We get our old tutor again and we are all so happy, even the more rowdy kids all love her and they acctually behave with her.
And then we find out that only 2 terms into the year she is being taken away again? And replaced with a maths teacher who sucks and nobody likes and im absolutely gutted, i hate it!
They also only informed our tutor yesterday, they didnt even give any of us a chance to prepare for the change, just suddenly have her taken away from us again.
She is so mad as well, she made sure to make them know that she is angry and that the decision is stupid, but do they listen to the students? Do they listen to the teachers who try to acctually care for us? No! They just do what they like!
She gets that we have had no stability since we joined the school in any aspect, teacher just keep joining only to leave a few months later and systems are being introduced and replaced with worse systems and rules constantly, and the school lies to parents saying that they listen to their students when they completely ignore every single one of us every time! Every change they've made was made ignoring all of us saying we dont need or want this. And they should be listening to the year 11s cuz we were here the longest, we know what is most importabt for tge school and out learning, but we are the ones they ignore the most! Im guessing its because they know we are leaving soon so they dont want to take our advise just so they can implement worse things for the younger years and we won't be hear long enough to protest against it.
Im so sick of this school getting worse and worse every month, im so tired of it. Everything else could have been barable till the end of the year but this? This is the final straw, this school is hell and i hate it so much. I just want to have out tutor who cares for us, buut aparently that is too muh to ask for as well.

Hey, sidenote kind of unrelated to anything else, but if I ever use a word you don't know or talk about something where you've just got no idea what I'm saying, you're always welcome to ask
Like I've said before, I've run into case where I'll see people I think are pretty smart not knowing a word that I thought was super common
So like, vocabulary has nothing to do with intelligence, we just run into different words through out our lives; so if I'm using something you don't know there's nothing wrong with asking me what it means (especially cause there's a non zero chance it's some made up word from a book series or something)

being cisgender is just not an option for a lot of intersex people.
i was never given the option to be cisgender anything. every part of me that deviated from what a girl or boy "should" look like spelled trouble. because i dressed and acted very masculine, before puberty, people called me a bulldyke, a butch lesbian, a "girl pretending to be a boy" and "not a real boy". i was never "feminine enough" to be a woman.
after puberty hit, i started growing a beard, and my shoulders and chest got broader and more square. my body became more "masculine", so suddenly, i was labeled as a "boy pretending to be a girl" and "not a real girl". after I started testosterone, i haven't stopped being called a faggot, a fairy, a sissy or a pansy because i'm not "masculine enough" to be a man despite being a bear.
there's no winning in the eyes of a society that's so focused on binary this-or-that choices. i had no hand in the matter, this all happened way before I started testosterone HRT. in fact, even when i was placed on estrogen HRT to try to "correct" my intersex traits and symptoms, i still wasn't gendered or seen as a cis woman. i was still the same tranny bulldyke. no matter what i do, my intersex and transsexual traits will always be weaponized against me; whatever sounds the "worst" at the time, or whatever invalidates what i want.
in order to liberate trans people from this struggle, we must also liberate intersex people, for our struggles are virtually one in the same. our fight for body and identity autonomy is shared. it will always be impossible for me and other intersex people to be viewed as cis anything while white American society remains focused on pointing out the "differences" between men and women, instead of embracing the similarities we all can and do have.
intersex and trans people owe it to one another to disassemble these dangerous attitudes and shut them down when and where possible. it's not only trans people who face this struggle- intersex people deal with never being able to pass or be clocked as their actual gender from birth a lot of the time. people MUST understand that women and men come in all types of bodies, shapes and sexes, whether or not they chose to look like that. and whether or not they chose doesn't matter, they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, which means being gendered correctly despite how they look or sound.
