The soccer gender pay gap is ridiculous

I just hate how cis straight people are considered normal and average and never have to come out. Why. WHY.

yeah like????? assuming cishetness as default is basically the root of all our problems??????? i hate it

bUT that doesn’t mean that cis and straight people should start “coming out” to prove a point (at least, not yet) because that just ends up taking more attention away from trans and queer people yeah

Don't Misgender Non-Binary Individuals

If you meet someone who is trans or non-binary (i.e does not identify w/ their assigned gender) ALWAYS refer to them with the pronouns or gender they identify with. For example don't EVER use the following phrases:

-They used to be a girl

-They're really a guy but they cal themselves a girl

-She's really a he

The person REALLY is the gender they identify with. They may have been assigned female at birth (AFAB) or male at birth (AMAB) but this was never their gender. These phrases are examples of misgendering. Don't do it.

bisexuals who have never had sex

bisexuals who have only had “heterosexual” sex

bisexuals who used to identify as straight or gay

bisexuals who only date one gender

bisexuals in “straight-passing” relationships

bisexuals who have lots of casual sex

This is so super important.

Friendly reminder that bisexual is the word the creators of Avatar used when talking about Korrasami.

Not straight. Not lesbian.

Bisexual.

so you can knock it off with the bi erasure now. We’re allowed to have representation too, you know.

Here’s the sexuality section of the posters my GSA will be putting up around the school!

These posters are by no means exhaustive and I only put the bare basics of each sexuality on the poster. If there’s a glaring error in a definition or something please tell me so I can fix it before we put these up in real life!

When people say “pick a side”, they’re really saying “pick a closet”.

Mis-gendering usually feels like a punch to the stomach, especially when its on purpose.

I guess it goes without saying to NEVER SAY ANY OF THESE THINGS.

"So, you’re actually gay, right?"

Have you practiced not gendering strangers today?

When people actively refuse to use your pronouns, that sends a message. Here are ten things that this refusal actually signifies to the trans person.

If you haven’t already seen this article, read it now. It’s not a cheesy 10-inane-things list, it’s actually spot in highlighting why pronouns are so important, and why ignoring someone’s request, despite good intentions, can have a significant impact on them.
