i love when intersex people try to talk about our issues people try to hit us with a "that doesn't count, that would be like 0.01% of the population you're talking about," ahh response, which I have personally received several times at this point.

everyone loves to be confident to pull some bullshit statistic out of their ass to be dismissive, but it's funny because they never do a second of research. the United Nations Human Rights Office estimates 1.7% of the population are born intersex:

even if the numbers were any lower, it would still be worth talking about intersex issues. any amount of people with these experiences are worth representing and discussing. we should not have to be invisible because our conditions are so stigmatized that many of us receive "Corrective" procedures just after birth, during childhood, or puberty. so many of us are swept under the rug, that's part of the reason why the statistics vary depending on which area is reporting the statistics.

you can't weaponize how marginalized someone is against them. if we fight for people with the most specific gender identities that can't be easily explained in one or two words, we must include intersex people. if we include people who use unique pronouns not seen in current common vernacular, we must support intersex people. if we support other queer minorities, we must support intersex people.

it's not an option. you can act like we are a statistic on a page, a number you can't possibly fathom in your mind, but we are all around you. everywhere. existing in real time. we are not fossils. we are not extinct.

you don't have the pleasure of ignoring us anymore. intersex rights are human rights, and sometimes, they're queer rights, too.

Friendly reminder that trees are canonically asexual 💜🤍🩶🖤

Their name was Nex Benedict.

Nex Benedict, not whatever name the news keeps saying.

Nex used He/Him pronouns according to friends, not whatever the news keeps saying.

Nex was the victim of a hate crime. Nex's death was because of a hate crime. Nex's death was not an accident, it was a hate crime.

Transphobe: Pronouns are useless, blah blah blah.

Me: Of course they are! Mother fucker! I speak Persian!

We only have one pronoun, “او,” which you can pronounce like the “oo” in “moon.” That means I use “they/them” for your transphobic ass all the time!

Additionally, we can use “این,” pronounce like the "in" In Berlin. which means “it,” if you are nearby.

We can even omit the pronoun completely. For example, we can say “رفت,” which means someone left, and as you can see, it’s just one word.

We can write poems, and no one knows the gender of our lovers. I don’t know about you, but I think it’s pretty neat.

btw the a+ in lgbtqia+ stands for a+ as in a really good grade so remember to do your homowork and get good gays.

disclaimer: i accept and support asexual and aromantic people. please stop sending me hate anons calling me aphobic and telling me to kill myself.

A does not stand for ally, it stands for ASPECS. aros and aces and agenders and aplatonics and ASPECS damn it.

i will fucking swallow a motherfucker whole if I hear that argument again.

Your Intersex Awareness Day reminders that:

- Micropenis jokes are intersexist and not funny

- Intersex genital mutilation (IGM) is still allowed in nearly every country

- AFAB TransFem, AMAB TransMasc, Cis Trans, and Cis Non-binary are important terms for many Intersex folks

Include Intersex folks in your activism.

Pride Knight Vol. III

Times are fucking scary for us trans folks and it's getting worse by the day. At every turn we meet animosity, moral panic and outright violence - it's more important than ever that we can count on our queer family to have our back.

We cannot be legislated out of existence but we can't fight back all by ourselves.

Stay vigilant and take care of your trans siblings.

i think it's insane that nonbinary people went "hey i'm trans, i'm just not transitioning to one of the two very specific ideas of gender you have in your head" and so many cishet people and transmeds went "ah so you're not trans, you're just quirky." like hello? i literally started the sentence with "i'm trans" are you okay? people can transition in more than just one of two extremely specific ways, carol.

In case no one told you this year, I’ll say this. You are loved. You are worthy of being loved.you are enough. You are not alone. Your story doesn’t end here. This is your sign to keep going. This is your sign to stay alive. This is your sign to live the life the way you want. This is your sign to follow your dreams. This is your sign to save yourself.

Pride events (and also the whole plot) in Queer movies are like:

No pets

No POC

No trans

No Bi

No Ace

No Polyamorus

No children

No straight looking guy

No Ally

No Enby

Only Cis Lesbian and Gays

Are you telling me those gays can’t have a fucking friend who is queer in another way?!

And also, most trans people are lesbians and gays.

We need the entire community represented in movies.
