Coming to terms with childhood trauma is fucking insane because yeah I knew this fucjed me up but now that I'm thinking about it why the fuck did my uncle STAY FRIENDS with my dad after seeing me start crying after he called just to yell at me??? Bro what the fuck how could you be friends with someone who does that to a 7 year old??? Insane, and then having the audacity to, now that I'm an adult, be like "oh yeah I never liked him" man u used to hang out with him of your own free will???

a gay guy approached my mum on a night out last night and said he “knows” that she is transsexual because he’s a gay man and he “can tell”
but here’s the thing — my mum had cancer. twice. she lost all of her hair. it’s never grown back. she wears a wig. it’s something she’s incredibly self conscious about. and it made her cry
my mum had 2 surgeries to remove all of her female reproductive organs, and she still suffers from the aftermath of those surgeries. i spent 2 years thinking she was going to die. i saw her in hospital for weeks, unable to walk and barely eating. i see her now struggling with the consequences of those surgeries. her lack of hair is the least important or interesting thing about her. i’m just so thankful she’s still here, regardless of how she looks (which is still beautiful btw, and i wish she saw it)
so i just want to encourage people to keep thoughts to themselves because i cannot stress enough how wildly inappropriate it is to approach a cancer survivor and question their womanhood when that womanhood almost killed them. mind your business

When I came out as bi to my dad he said "I have a straight son, a love-hating daughter, and a lesbian daughter. I managed a full set!"
(we're not gonna tell him my brother is probably queer too)
can't wait to tell him I'm gender non-conforming so he can realise he has a son, a daughter and a child. He got the full set there too

I fully can't get over how Allen was registered as Brian's father - in 1948! That's incredible!
I mean, I know he was re-registered as a man, as male, such the newspaper article said, but I didn't think that in 1948 that would mean -- I mean, that's still a fight people are actively uhh fighting today, never mind 75 years ago
But I spose - he's a man, he's got the paperwork if needed and he's wearing trousers, and he's her husband, so why would some hospital doctor or district nurse question it at all
Or, it's like how my dad is registered as "informant" instead of "father", because the forms can be filled in whenever I guess, so long as you name the child within a certain time (my stepdad got letters about his son, asking why haven't you named your kid yet we'll take legal action or whatever) - my dad did it that way because he was already thinking about not paying child support, but I suppose it could easily be done the other way round, especially in 1948
