#you are the same as a cis man

[castielfucks]

theres actually no rules to transitioning and youre allowed to want contradictory things for your transition. it's fine if you only want some of the changes that come with hrt and take preventative measures for the rest (like wanting bottom growth but not body hair or vice versa). you can want to have vagina AND a dick. you can be a woman and want top surgery, or wear a packer. you can be a man and want to have a pussy. you can change your transition goals one or a million times or not have any goals at all and just take things as they come or as they feel right.

there are no rules.

deleted that rb cause i read it again a little closer but u people r so obsessed with dictating what does and does not happen to trans men. all these stupid little rules.

One of the (many) things I love about Xie Lian is how artfully he combines old man and babygirl. I would give examples, but I don’t think I need to. We all know

[muzsmocsing]

White No-Face may be a powerful villain but he is wrong about one important aspect of his whole supremefying Xie Lian plan.

"[...] Who knows if he'll still want to be with you when he sees what you'll become."

Hua Cheng would be devastated. Of course he would be, knowing exactly what horrors his beloved had to go through in the Kiln. E-ming would literally flood Ghost City with tears! But leave him?!????!??? If Xie Lian emerged from that mountain unchained and furious, brimming with corrupted heavenly power, a Calamity of unheard of caliber, you know how Hua Cheng would cope with that? By getting on his knees and tying his hair back.

anyways i love you people that are both gay and straight, in whatever way that presents. being nonbinary often can mean a complicated relationship to sexuality and how one perceives it within the societal restrictions of homo and heterosexual, and i think bridging those definitions and having "contradictory" labels like lesboy or whatever is really cool. i support and stan he/him lesbians or butch lesbians or she/her gay men or femme gays or she/he pronoun users and whatever else, be it cis or trans or both. if you feel like youre both cis and trans that also rocks. dont let people force you back into a binary within the queer community, stay strong!

[radley-writes]

genuinely worries me that some of you think the biggest threat to feminism in 2024 is trans men having words to talk about their lived experience

[princessefemmelesbian]

Transandrophobia truthers are so damn racist and white oh my fucking god y'all actually piss me the fuck off every time you tokenize Black and brown men for your stupid as fuck "mra but make it trans-inclusive" ideology created by a creepy guy with a corrective rape fetish(something I'll never let up on for as long as I live, btw). If I ever see another one of y'all say "Black and brown men face discrimination because they're seen as overly masculine and that's why masculinity in men is oppressed in this society" I will literally kill myself. Stop using Black and brown men as brownie points for your bullshit arguments about misandry being real when you don't have the slightest idea how racialized oppression works. White boys are so annoying and dumb istfg.

one day ppl online are gonna have to learn that there's no way to cordon off "male" sexuality as uniquely bad and gross without just ending up saying sexuality is bad and gross on the whole (conservative, reactionary, dangerous, tired)

[snobgoblin]

I'm gonna be so real and I don't know how to address it but fellow trans men you *have* to be more normal about other trans men being feminine. I promise this doesn't make you look like a girl. let other people express their gender differently and stop policing others, and other peoples characters, on how feminine they are allowed to be. I'm not sure where this comes from. be more normal about femininity I know it was forced onto you so I see how you would reject it. but. you've just gotta work through that I dont know what to tell you

The trans FTM experience of not knowing how to feel about your detachment from femininity and growing up a woman

I can’t define what Pyrrha Dve has going on gender-wise but it feels like it’s equal and opposite to what Link Legendofzelda has going on send tweet

Jun Wu headcanons because he's on my last nerve

◾His ancient ass secretly bathes in the blood of virgins for youthful and supple skin. That's why he keeps that freaky sword on him every day.

◾Generally he's considered to be a pretty good boss. Unless you're young and pretty or you ask Ling Wen about all the HR violations.

◾He thinks of Xie Lian as a weird mix of a son, an object he can self project onto, and a boytoy.

◾He is bisexual but closest thing to a significant other he's ever had was a homoerotic friendship with a childhood peer who broke it off when Jun Wu turned WEIRD around like 18.

◾Only drinks alone because he's a whiny drunk.

◾He gives really ominous vague advice. You could be sitting and peeling an orange, he'd hover over you and go "I wouldn't do that if I were you..." and just leave.

[slyandthefamilybook]

asking people their pronouns is the bare minimum of trans acceptance and it's something we've had to drag cis people kicking and screaming into doing. where the fuck do you get off throwing all that progress out the window because you like it when people are mean to you actually

[mantisgodsdomain]

Now that we are being followed by people, we need to make some thoughts and opinions clear so that people are not later Shocked And Disgusted or whatever by thoughts we have held for many years. We think it's weird and also bad to treat queer people like they're a different species from cishet people, and we think that treating things like Having A Sexuality makes a character better than if they have a different sexuality is bad no matter what way you put it.

We also think that, if in your setting queer folks are widely accepted and straight isn't a "default", it may be worth noting that, say, a straight woman might need just as much self-discovery to work out she's straight that a lesbian does nowadays. In the same manner that, in Ace Attorney, Larry Butz needs to tell Phoenix that no matter how many photos of handsome men he shows him, he's tried, he's just not attracted to men,

Thoughts on transfem sans?

ehh I'm sorry, I don't think i could get into it. i feel like the way his character plays on certain tropes is meant to evoke this... image of sleazy masculinity that falls just short of the more common examples of the trope in popular media (mainly by uhhhhh doing away with the misoginy LMAOO).

the accent, the general air of unkemptness, the literal scene dedicated to him waltzing into a bar while everyone there is like "heyyy, it's our favourite guy! everybody loves this guy". it all builds up. of course, sans is an infinitely more complex character than this, and these moments are undermined and complemented by his sillier, more heartfelt side. in a way, i could argue that sans is a subversion of the greasy bar-popular guy trope. but i think being comfortable in that masculinity is still a non insignificant part of his character. it fits him like a glove, and he carries it around with the same ease he carries everything else about him. so... I don't really see him changing it or being substantially feminine in any way. it's not so much about "being a cis man", as that masculinity itself that is just, well, part of his persona. which is why you've seen me joke about him being a bulldyke or a transman in the past. they're both identities that center masculinity.
